U tampons by Kortex are being recalled because of a fault meaning they’re leaving pieces of tampon in the body after they’ve been removed. It’s mainly affecting people in the US and Canada, and people who bought products before 16th October 2018.
Please if you use this product check the box for the serial number (block of numbers on the same face as the barcode):
I’ve never really wrote a tutorial before so apologies if this is bad
1. okay first thing I do is pick three colors, a mid, dark, and light. I like to check the colors in greyscale to make sure there’s enough contrast between each one.
I then plop down a blob of whatever my middle tone color is.
2. next, I take my dark color and just sort of randomly place it around. I try to make sure there’s a good amount of both the mid and dark tones spread throughout. I personally like to keep it kinda messy. I also have pen pressure on for both brush size and opacity, so I can have some blending action going on.
3. for the next step I do the exact same thing as before, except with the light color.
4. aight this is where we start adding details. see how you just have a bunch of colors and edges where two colors meet? use the eyedropper and go to an area where two colors meet, eyedrop a color, and then use that color to draw in your grass blades. I do this at every point where colors meet. should note I personally like to use a square brush, but you can really just use anything.
5. you can technically stop at the last step if you’re going for a more simple look, but to add more details I go to the “empty” areas of solid color and just draw in random strokes using a color nearby. it’s just a way to fill up the empty space.
6. basically more of the same idea of eyedropping and drawing. for more variety so things look interesting, I like to add random plant shapes.
7. and so the grass doesn’t look too plain, I add random dots of color and pretend it’s flowers and stuff.
and there you have it, this is how I approach drawing grass.
I’m not saying that for sympathy, I’m just saying that because I feel like a lot of people would look at someone in my position right now – woman of the year, an artist that could be at her peak, and think, “She’s really got her shit together! She’s really on it! She’s got it all!” I do, but as far as my personal life goes, I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing.
This is the first time that Lucius and Ed interact or are even really made aware of each other, and I find Lucius’ quick response and way of responding to Ed’s riddle really interesting and sort of telling for what happens with them in season 3.
Ed’s way of answering questions is often another riddle and so far everyone that he’s encountered have either found it baffling/annoying (Gordon, Alfred, Oswald) or extremely irritating (Bullock).
Then we have Lucius. Who not only immediately grasps what Ed is trying to relate, but simply takes it as it is, without annoyance or irritation. Sort of “Oh, this is how this guy communicates. I understand and accept this, and I know the answer can will reply.”
And Ed’s reaction is understandable surprise, it’s plain on his face. I genuinely think that Lucius is the first to just accept Ed’s little quirk of riddles and answer him genuinely.**
Later on in “How the Riddler Got His Name” it REALLY makes sense about how Lucius deals with Ed and the way he does things. He’s had this moment before, this moment of understanding that there’s a brilliant but quirky brain inside Ed Nygma, and he sympathizes.
So yeah, I really think that Lucius Fox was the first person to ever “get and accept” Edward Nygma and how he functioned, without any judgement.
**Kristen got there eventually, and I’m not throwing her progress with Ed under the bus, but at first, her reaction was not accepting (and also Ed was pestering her lots of not so great ways)
