i've been able to spend a lot more time on art lately and wanted to start uploading here again! (sorry it's been awhile, i really missed it here!!)
in other news, i made a strawpage🍓 a new landing page in addition to my carrd, and in case you wanna draw me somethn :3c
one more thing!! i wanna open comms again but i'm really interested to do so on vgen! just putting it out there in case anyone might have a spare vgen code ..? (՞ ܸ. .ܸ՞)
edit: i graciously received one!! thank you so much ;0; <3
hope everyone is doing well despite everything btw. it's almost spring which is my favorite season so i've been feeling a lot more energetic lately! 🌷🌼💖✨
i just finished uploading a bunch of new characters i wanted to include in my roster for this year and fixed a couple old refs and i'm feeling SO READY
here's my profile if you're interested~

next step: the hitlist!!
i don't like to plan every single attack to leave room for stumbling upon any new artists who i wanna attack or revenges i want to return but i would be remiss if i didn't plan ahead at least a little bit bc there's always SO MANY cool characters i wanna draw and if i miss any and have to wait til next year to have another chance to include them in my attacks again i will be so sad!!
GO TEAM STARDUST WOOOOO 🌟🌟 all the best to everyone tho lol hope it's tons of fun for everyone! ^o^
YAYYYY i'm hosting my very first character giveaway raffle over on toyhouse to celebrate hitting my first follower milestone there! <3 closes june 1st
check it out!
i haven't had any luck with comms but that's probably my fault bc i'm bad at marketing myself and what i'm offering might not be interesting enough ૮(*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)
so i'm thinking of adding a couple new types of comms that i notice are fairly popular but i don't actually draw much of on a regular basis (bust-up avatar, simple chibi) !
before i offer it officially i have to see if i can even do it well so if we're mutuals drop a link to your oc and i'll randomly choose a few to make an avatar or chibi out of & gift it to you <3
Pick one option per question, even the smallest preference counts. If not possible to choose, explain your answer!
Digital art OR traditional art?
this one's harddd bc there's things about each that i feel i can do more in.... but i think i have to go with traditional bc it's what i've been doing for longer (basically my entire life) and i'm just a little more comfortable in!
Original concepts/characters OR fanart?
OCs!!! <3
Original fiction OR fanfiction?
both are wonderful but oddly enough i think i have to go with fanfiction bc more typically i already have an attachment to those established characters and universes so i'm more engaged with the story!
Sketch OR lineart?
sketch! they're always more satisfying to look at. or at least a refined sketch in the place of lineart!! in most instances i can't do proper lineart anymore i don't have the patience lolol
Coloring OR shading?
i think shading actually!! like i really like the part where i'm adding depth and variation to colors that are already there
Handwritten signature OR text signature?
handwritten!
Shrink canvas OR add a filter before posting?
i always hear that it's a good idea but i never remember to pffff
Messy art OR clean art?
i think i'm more drawn to messyyy
Bright colors OR muted colors?
bright and vibrant (within reason ofc lol)!! muted colors make me sad
Warm colors OR cold colors?
warm all the way!
Graphic tablet with OR without screen?
WITH screen! my digital art improved EXPONENTIALLY when i got my iPad. before that when i was in my CSP era with a nonscreen tablet my art was just horrendous and not getting better >__< that's how i found out i need a screen LOL
Humans OR non-humans?
non-human!! or humanoid (mostly human with non-human features). it's what i drew the most as a kid before i ever got into anime, and lately i've been returning to my roots~
Fur OR scales?
fur!
Edgy characters OR wholesome characters?
wholesome, i can't help viewing edgy as kind of overdone and cringe sorry pffff (i'm certain it can be done right i'm just slightly tired of it as a whole lol!,,)
High poly models OR low poly models?
lowpoly!!! it's so nostalgic and cute <3
Music OR podcasts while drawing?
PODCASTS and video essays!! i have to be in a very specific mood to listen to music and i can't overdo it or it'll ruin my favorite songs or get on my nerves. it doesn't help me focus as well either ^^'
