thank u for the ask!!!! had to wait a day before answering so i could actually draw orz
1. what is your favorite color to work with?
i think i like shading blue & white best! u can really push the colors a lot and add colorful highlights and really get a mood going. uhmm my favorite thing in the world is doing the eye whites a bright light blue like winter blue though. im addicted
3.what song(s) do you listen to when you do art?
LOTS! i always have my playlists on OR for my comic work (thumbnailing & typesetting aside) i put youtube videos and podcasts in the BG to keep me focused. ill pick a playlist depending on my drawings mood/subject, my OWN mood, + if theres something special that day... like today is akagi day so its akagi playlist lock down uhm many such cases.
6.tag your favorite artists/inspirations!
every piece in my #colors tag is there for inspiration... i also have a short #design tag cuz i always forget what my chara design insp tag is. i love uhm @/fashion-runways for outfit inspiration, scott pilgrim (comics) by bryan lee o malley are forever a huge comic-making inspiration, i also draw a lot from usogui - sako toshio and ranma - rumiko takahashi are two huge sources of inspiration for posing. love @/obligatorymorningfart too for.. chara design, composition, humor. uhm i draw a lot of inspiration from oil paintings as well i always lean super close in museums to stare at the brushtrokes & what order the colors were layered in.. i love oil paintings. DETECTIVE CONAN is also a huge writing inspiration though ive strayed very far away from murder mysteries i still have it in my heart. and of course FKMT's gambling fiction is among the best of the genre, and saw made me understand something fundamental about death games. i could go on but one last honorary mention to all the webcomics from the 2010s that people would upload on their own site for free, its all i ever read when i was growing up and its why i started making more fleshed out OCs and thinking about their stories. and finally the very first comic i fell in love with, gaston lagaffe :)
21.draw one of your original characters.
here they are... my awfuls... golden (left) & moki (right) r some of my oldest OCs, moki is the OG but im so biased to golden nowadays cause he SUCKS. they used to date, hes still bitter/heartbroken about it but shes so over it and thinks hes so funny hilarious when hes being entirely serious. they both suck honestly
