FAQ

General

"What program do you use?"
Clip Studio Paint currently, with a Wacom Intuos Pro Small Tablet. And ProCreate if it looks like a messier drawing.
“How long have you been drawing?"
My mum tells me since I was one years old. Digitally for about 10 years now.
"Are you gonna be going back to x fandom/certain AU?"
If you haven’t seen it in a while, it’s because I don’t receive serotonin/dopamine from it anymore and I have to respark it. Sometimes it’s because of certain comments or lack of attention. I’ve started to have to say “No” to certain projects, as I take on too many. I know a lot of people want to see certain things, but I come up with too many ideas to be able to give a lot of attention to each of them.
"Do you have art tips?"
Please don’t be vague like this as it’s a very broad question. I also feel like looking up tutorials is better. You can ask about specific things (like how I do Gem hair or maybe shading) but I feel like even I’m still learning and I feel like any tutorial I give will be outdated in a year as I figure out things. The only tips I have is to just make sure to look up references and it’ll take a while to get to where you want it to be. And to see your improvement, redraw an old piece.
"How do you not get burnout from drawing every day?"
I get burnout. But drawing is generally an escape/coping mechanism (and encouraged as a healthier one by my counsellors) for me. I produce a lot in "bursts” because I want to get things out before my motivation is the one to be depleted (thanks to mental illness). I also draw very fast because I was taught that way and quantity over quality.
“Can you draw x?/Draw x."
I get a lot of requests and I might do a quick sketch of something, but ultimately if you want me to do something, I’d like to get paid. Do not order me to do something as that’s how you absolutely do not get me to do things.
"Favourite dinosaur?"
Plesiosaur that identifies as a dinosaur.
"Favourite tea?"
Pickwick strawberry
"Can you tell me about your OCs?"
Another vague one. I have around 200 for Steven Universe alone. Please be more specific.

Jojo Related

“Favourite Part?"
Steel Ball Run and Vento Aureo
"Favourite Jojo?"
Johnny
"Favourite Jobro?"
Gyro
"Favourite Bucci Gang member?"
Narancia and Fugo
"Favourite La Squadra member?”
Risotto is best member, favourite design (and would like to cosplay) Prosciutto, Melone is favourite to draw, and White Album is the one I’d like to have as a stand
"Does the Mer AU involve other Parts?"
The amount of work/energy/effort it took to focus on making it for Part 5 alone is much more than it seems to you as the audience. Yes I have drawn Johnny and Gyro in a Mer AU, but as I continually specify, I don't want to delve further into it because it'll get out of control and I'll burn out easily. Only one mutual is allowed to ask about it as there is an arranged agreement on it. It would be nice to do other Parts, but I haven't completed all designs for the Part 5 Mer AU. Obviously the characters from other Parts would be mer or human, but I don't want to get into that because it's exhausting.
"Do you have Jojo OCs?"
Yes! I have a few and a fan Part that I haven't focused enough on. Part 5 is my most known ones like Farfalle (a semi self insert) and Patatine (Pesci's girlfriend).
My fan Part features Jordyn as the Jojo, and also includes Muse (JoFoe), Marina (JoBro), and Sam (JoBro).
“(anything about Melone/Baby Face controversy)"
It’s a trap to answer this. Nothing I say will be listened to. I think he’s an interesting character, but I recognize that he’s an assassin and treats people like throwaway objects if they’re not in his group. I don’t consider it a "r@pe stand” because it’s been explained before that the woman wasn’t. I hate the way that Araki made it look that way at first before going out of his way to show that she wasn’t and it could’ve been executed much better and the focus could’ve been on something better. I don’t like the stand, but I see it as a parasite that forms on host’s neck/spine and should’ve been more apparent and was more inspired by homunculus (which has more horrifying processes to make one). I hate the “jokes” and calling it a “r@pe stand” (as it takes away from actual issues with the subject as it seems to be a throwaway term at this point) and I’ll delete most asks about it. I do not condone his actions.
“How do the mers in the AU have sex/have babies?"
Please stop asking this. It’s not about sex. It’s literally about them trying not to die and also trying to kill the King.
