Art Related Resources !!

Apps & Resources I typically love / use the most !!

No, I do not have a button! xD I'm a nobody unfortunately. XD

Links !!

A collection of sites, software & resources I like and fully endorse for use in what people do daily on the internet!

Art related links will go on this page from now on - I'm no artist but if I do anything ever, it's draw. I don't do... much... else, even from my hobbies... I'm unable to help much on most things regarding getting good or better at drawing but ... I hope this at least shares a l'il bit of my experience ...

Online Art Tools !!

Kannagi Tegaki Draw and Tweet	I like the download ver. But you can also just do it online :'3 Yaaaaaaaay ...
MacPaint Simulator	Another very old art program !! Again online so you don't have to download it which probably wouldn't work on any computer that can turn on this day in age because of lacking compatability with all things. This site stil archives, updated, & talks about MacPaint to this day. Most recent update as of posting this link is June 7, 2025 !!

Drawing Utensils !!

UtechSmart Venus Pro Wireless MMO Gaming Mouse	[ PAID ] This is the mouse I draw with !! I'm a mouse artist by elective since I have a tremor disorder & can't hold a pen ... I think drawing with a mouse is fun & easy & I don't feel held back by using one. :3
Trackpad (Laptop Build Intel DGBook A1)	[ PAID ] I draw with the trackpad sometimes while my mouse is charging. \|D Works I made with the trackpad include this, this, & thiiiiiiis !

Drawing Tools !!

Krita	It's this program I like for when I'm not using Paint !! I've bought the the paid version on Steam !!
ReSprite	[ PAID ] I'm dumb or evil or possessed or smth so I've never liked Aseprite, so I use this instead, I like it much more !!

Reference Sites !!

Afro Index	A site that talks about names & styles & references pictures for use in drawing / writing black hairstyles !!!!
List of NO AI reference sites	It's important to draw accurately what you want to create, and if you want to create something that a human can relate to and understand, why not draw things accurately to what humans see and create ?
