rpanons | The shitty life advice brigade

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

for me, gestures included with the expression are just as important. the problem is finding people who are willing to incorporate hands or items for a reasonable price instead of treating it like a full-blown commission.

for me i like to include the following
- waving
- sarcastic hand gesture/hands held up kind of in surrender
- hand on side of face or covering eyes
- drinking
- both hands covering face
- playing with hair (if they have long hair)
- hand on neck

i've done it for a few characters (original and old bad video game art) and i think the best thing to do is to commission more than one artist and find one who you think you're comfortable with and describe the character to them. ask them to do a few wild card ones or think of what you'll use the most and request the same expression from different artists. i've found it works wonders when i just say it's up to your discretion or to interpret that how you will. or to describe a scenario like "watching someone cram half a buffet into their face" or something.
