Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game: - 10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw. - 26. What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended. - 7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate. - 30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated.

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw.

Lmao none? I like drawing clothes where the folds aren’t too difficult. Maybe pants? I feel like pants have folds that I can guess my way through easier than any shirt/jacket. The true ideal is probably socks 😂

26. What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended.

Oh gosh I know there are some out there where I was like “wtf?” but usually it’s things like when my Momoi kept being tagged as Sakura, despite not really looking like her outside of the pink hair.

But I remember I drew this Spock pic once and it breached containment on Twitter and a bunch of normies kept saying it was Tom Cruise but I’m just like “it’s clearly Quinto and they both just have similarly shaped noses.” That was prob the most unexpected one

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate.

Ugh any kind of paint. Gouache, especially. You know how much we worked with gouache in color theory lmao but I never understood how to like really use it (in fairness, I did not take color theory super seriously lol) but people do such great paintings with it! And I’m always in awe

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated.

Why’d you pick the hard questions lol…

I’m not really sure honestly. I either draw for very popular things or for like very very small rarepairs lmao not much in between. So some things I wish would get a million notes but get like 100, but that is often like Really Good for what that fandom is lol

I think usually if something feels underrated to me, it’s on a specific platform. Like a pic doing shit on twt but then it does better on tumblr and I feel like “yeah, they get it” lmao

Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game

Didn't see a lot of artist ask games, wanted to make a silly one.

(I wrote this while sick out of my mind last year and it's been collecting dust in my drafts, I might as well let it run free) 1. Art programs you have but don't use

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)

3. What ideas come from when you were little

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (i.e. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it)

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

9. What are your file name conventions

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what

12. Easiest part of body to draw

13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing

14. Any favorite motifs

15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)

16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing

17. Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what

18. An estimate of how much art supplies you've broken

19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

21. Art styles nothing like your own but you like anyways

22. What physical exercises do you do before drawing, if any

28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

For the artist as 15, 21 and 29!!!

15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)

I totally draw on my bed like 99% of the time. I love being all nestled in a precarious pile of pillows all arranged *just right* to hold my iPad at the correct height and angle for drawing

21. Art styles nothing like your own but you like anyways

I really love that like… True Shoujo™ art style and while my goal in life is to draw that way, I don’t feel like I capture the parts of it I like the most. People who can draw with really delicate lines baffle me. I also love styles that don’t rely a lot on line art, but I’ll never be that person and I’m okay with that lol

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically

I’m assuming this means like art media instead of like tv/movies/etc? I’ll answer it that way. I love when people can do a cool ass paper collage but man nothing about collages makes me go “hey I want to do that.” Same with physically using pen/ink, tbh. Everyone makes such awesome art during October with pen/ink but it’s not a medium I enjoy so it’s hard for me to feel very inspired by it.

This is kind of dumb but if you wouldn’t mind would u ever be able to post a breakdown for drawing sylvains armor? I always have a tough time w it and I like how u go about it. Of course don’t feel obligated to if it’s not something you’re interested in!!!

Hey that’s not dumb at all! I’m happy that you like how I draw it because I honestly don’t know what I’m doing half the time lol…

Tbh I had literally just been thinking about doing this for myself like… two days ago lmao I rarely draw things like armor and I was thinking about how it would be helpful to like draw it all out so I know how it works (because unfortunately that boy is in armor more often than not….)

Idk how quickly I’ll wind up doing this, but it’s on my list of things to draw!
