OH GRATE ARTIST PLESE BESTOW UPON ME THE KNOWLEDGE TO DRAW CLARABELLE she is so hard to draw how do you do it (´༎ຶོρ༎ຶོ`)

THANK YOU SO MUCH MY DEAR ANON!!

Well I'm still not that good with art tutorials, but I can give you a simple art tip to learn how to draw her and any character really: keep redrawing them!

Reference does help! I for example draw her based on The Three Musketeers + House of Mouse designs that are my favorites.

Break the design to shapes so you start noticing the similarities, it follows a pattern

In the end it's all up to you anon, you can change the style and draw it however you like. I'm no expert myself, but I still try!

Hey, big fan since early TTS scene. Absolutely lovin the World of Darkness stuff.

Questions to satiate my mind goblin however.

Will we get to see Elise more in the series? And will Changelings be referenced or spoken of due to her hoping to find a fairy?

The mind goblin SHALL be fed more Elise in Chapter 4 of HTP!

Here have funny storyboard panel pilfered from the project chat.

Elise is into faelogical research so, especially through her, I am sure the faefolk will become relevant at some point.

Hey there! I’ve been getting a lot of questions recently regarding the way that I practice French and learn German at home. I decided to make a masterpost with all of the links I find helpful for learning a language for free!

I don’t like to learn in classrooms, it’s just way too much pressure. My French class last year was too hard for me, and it wasn’t fun at all since we were doing too much vocabulary and not enough fun stuff! I think that learning a language at home is your best option (from my experience), since you can go at your own pace, and not at the fast pace of a class!

I have used all of these links personally, so don’t worry, this isn’t a promotion in any way!

Starting your target language from scratch (beginners) 

Duolingo (can be found in the app stores for Android and Apple) is a great place to start learning a language. You can start from the basics of your target language, and build your way up. It provides a good base for the language learning process. I wouldn’t recommend using ONLY Duolingo to learn your target language, as it just goes through vocabulary. You should use other resources to learn the grammar as well.

BBC Languages is also a helpful website for over 40 languages.

MyLanguages allows you to learn the alphabet for your target language.

101 Languages has 167 languages available to learn for free!

Memrise is another helpful app for vocabulary.

Omniglot is kind of like an online language learning encyclopedia. It’s a good place to start! 

When you’re ready to start using the language (reading, writing, listening)

Interpals is a really cool website that allows you to have conversations in your target language with a native speaker! It’s really just a pen pal thing, but you can also meet people to travel with!

The Polyglot project is a good place to find things to read in your target language. If you don’t know a word, translate it through the site!

HelloTalk is another good app/website for conversing with speakers of your target language.

Celebrating Multilingualism Through Harry Potter is a section in the University of Calgary website. You can listen to the first part of Harry Potter in over 60 languages! 

Resources for studying your target language

Dictionaries are essential for learning a language. Here’s a masterpost with tons of dictionaries for different languages by lets-become-polyglots.

Quizlet is a great flash card making app/website. I use it to practice my vocabulary in my spare time.

Forvo is good for listening to words. Search up a word, and listen to a native speaker of your target language say that word!
