FAQ
Do you take requests?
-nope
What program(s) do you use?
-Most of the time I use procreate, but occasionally I will use IbisPaint X.
Will you do a trade with me?
-It really depends if I really like what you do. You can ask but I do have the right to decline. If you’re a close friend, dm me and we’ll work something out :)
I really like your art. Can I please use one of your pieces as a cover of my story or a profile picture?
-unless the piece was specifically made for you, that will be a hard no. sorry, but I can't risk someone taking advantage of it and stealing and/or not giving proper credit.
Can I be your friend?
-sure. just pm me. but don't if you're only looking to be my friend just for art privileges.
Do you use references for your edits? If so, where do you get yours from?
-I do use references (meaning i look at images, not trace) 50% of the time for my edits. I freehand from memory the other 50% of the time. I usually get my references from pintrest, Google, or I take a picture myself and reference it.
How long do your edits usually take?
-depending on how much I'm editing and how many characters there are, it may range from 2-7 hours. it may take longer or shorter sometimes.
Will you make me an edit if I pay you?
-I'm not taking any commissions at this moment. Also making money off of art that is not original is illegal.
How are you so good at art?
-well, i definitely don’t think i am the best artist out there, by no means, but the reason why i am where i am today art wise, is through practicing my technique
How do I improve my art?
-well what I did to improve my art is a lot of photo studies, practice, and dedication. If you’re looking to start out doing digital art, i would say tracing is a good place to start BUT do not claim you traced something on your own AND do not trace other art. I would take pictures of yourself and trace those pictures to get a good feel of anatomy and structure, and do studies to see how the body interacts with the environment and to practice things like gesture drawings, lighting, shading, and other things. also, a very helpful tip is to FLIP YOUR CANVAS! this is a good way to spot mistakes in your art. if you are drawing traditionally, i recommend holding your art up into a mirror and that will act as flipping your canvas OR take a picture of your art and flip it in your camera app.
