Hi Ego! I’m not sure if my first message went through about a week ago, so I’m trying again! As a fellow Twst-er and Diasomnia lover, I really want to get into making fan art and comics like you do. Although, I’m not exactly sure how you manage to come up with such amazing ideas and drawings so fast, so if you have any tips (from you or the Dia-fam) I would love you FOREVER! (Which I already do because your art is iconic but still.)
oh no, I don't think I got it, thank you for resending!! 💚 it is always kinda hard to talk about where ideas come from so I'm not sure how helpful this'll be, but one of my favorite things to do -- and bonus, is always a good fallback for when you're feeling the urge to do something but can't think of what -- is to start out with like...adapting a particular scene or moment or whatever that sticks out to me. just thinking about how I would draw the characters and what they'd be doing, and any extra little jokes or acting I can add, that kinda stuff! I'm not an especially original person so having a kind of jumping-off point actually works a lot better for my brain. :B and half the time it spirals into being something totally removed from the original point anyway (and also twice as long and with more characters and, well, I can't complain when I do this to myself I guess).
although it also helps to just be. incapable of not constantly thinking about The Characters and connecting them to literally everything. so when someone says 'driving' while I'm busy thinking about Diasomnia (which is any given moment) and my brain goes 'ha ha diasomnia. driving. what if' and the next thing I know I've done this (sorry)
