TIL there is a Cyrillic letter so rare it is only used in the phrase “many-eyed Seraphim”
and it looks like THIS
aka the only possible appropriate character for talking about angels
If somebody is curious, this is how multiocular O
looks in the Book of Psalms of 15th century

ziay:
I finished it
I’m nursing this AU in my head, but I’m to bashful to talk about it (◕‿◕✿)
so it will most likely be just pictures from time to time
his wing might look weird; they’re supposed to be clipped, but there are not enough references for clipped wings out there and I’m confused ;_;
vampire conspiracy theories, go!
absolutely superb
syua:
literally most things that people write off as just ‘textures’ to use in graphics are stolen & unsourced material created by artists or photographers NOT meant to be used as elements in projects without royalty payments. you can say ‘it’s just random tumblr posts they don’t care’ but you wouldn’t want someone to take your work and edit into their work so they can be praised for their beautiful style and creativity even if they just post it on social media w/o profit, would you?? so maybe if you browse pinterest or google images for pictures without finding the original source, you’re using images that you’re not allowed to use without realizing it.
you see it on here a lot especially in (i won’t link anything but i’m sure you know what i mean) those album track ‘aesthetics’ posts, au ‘aesthetic’ posts (you see these less in kpop, but where people use non-royalty free images to kinda craft a visual au), and even just rather typical graphics that have a lot of ‘texture’ elements. and texture packs too!! that’s often where the problem starts; people just collect images (often literal art), compile them in a folder w/o sources, then insist no one can repost those images w/o crediting the person who compiled them. what???
SO may i suggest some of my fave places you can get FREE, ROYALTY-FREE elements that are totally legal to use
- creativemarket has 6 free high-quality resources (textures, brushes, fonts, etc), different every week! wow awesome i check it every week
- search ‘freebie’ on behance. awesome stuff!!! lots of v nice templates textures and fonts
- mockup zone freebies
- unsplash: tons of very nice free photographs, not shitty stock photos
- pexels: same idea. + they have an adobe plugin so you can get photos without closing your editor damn nice
- pixelsquid is a super cool free program (again w a ps plugin that i love) with lottts of super cool hq 3d elements!
- as to not make this too long: spoongraphics, lostandtaken (textures galore), pixeden, freebiesbug.
I’m gonna add a few more:
- Morguefile is my favorite free stock photo site
- Texturemate is full of excellent free textures, brushes, and patterns.
- Transparent Textures actually lets you combine colors and patterns to build your own texture right there in the browser.
