I love your art! Do you have a guide for drawing Ruby and Sapphire? I’ve been trying lately but I SUUUUCK.

jen-iii:

Like every Steven Universe character, you can use basic shapes for their body. Ruby and Sapphire are easy because they are basically a bunch of circles and squares

After ya do that, wall you gotta do is fill in their details, which is fun because they’re so simple, i left my guidelines in so it might look sketchy

But yeah, that’s how I go about it!

Vitiligo is a condition in which people lose melanin – the pigment that gives skin its color – resulting in white patches of skin. While the exact cause of vitiligo is unknown, it has been confirmed that an autoimmune component plays a strong role in the disease. The chronic nature of the
condition, long term treatment, lack of uniform effective therapy and
unpredictable cause of the condition has a significant impact upon the
quality of life for individuals living with vitiligo.

Vitiligo can begin at any age, but in half of all affected patients, its onset
is noted before the age of twenty. In more than half, there is a family
history of vitiligo or early greying of hair. In most cases, periods of
rapidly extending hypo-pigmentation occur. After several months, the
number and size of the light areas become stable and may remain so for
several years; other episodes of pigment loss may occur later on,
however often following stress or trauma, and the hypopigmentation may
spread. 

Most patients with vitiligo are in good general health. Although 1 – 2% of
the general population has vitiligo, the incidence is 8 – 20% in people
with adrenocortical insufficiency, hyperthyroidism, alopecia areata,
pernicious anemia, melanoma, scleroderma, morphea, and certain types of
uveitis. Three different hypotheses have been advanced to explain the
cause of vitiligo: autoimmunity, neurochemical factors, and
self-destruction of melanocytes. Research on the cause is continuing.

but yall love to forget he had it too…………… 🙂

Lapis thoughts

ayellowbirds:

When she left Earth, she offered to take him

When she sent The Message, it was addressed to him

When she gave warning about Homeworld Gems being on their way, it was to warn him

When she lied to Jasper, it was to protect him

She says she’s keeping Malachite at the bottom of the sea to keep him safe

This Gem who only knew being captive as a tool for who knows how many centuries, this Gem who has no reason to trust anyone else, no reason to be loyal, entirely trusts Steven Quartz Universe and offers him whatever protection she can manage.

Steven has become so much like Rose. More and more people willing to sacrifice for him (Connie, the Centipeetle), and yet…

he’s the one with the shield.
