[azolitmin]

Art req: Bisky (HxH)?

[azolitmin]

hello! I see you like ygo, have you drawn thief king bakura?

I have drawn him almost 10 years ago actually... yeesh (left)

I will draw something new for the year of the snake (pictured on the right)

On your chibi drawings or drawings with thicker "lineart", you seem to vary the color of the lines a lot. How do you decide where to place the different line colors? Do you have a system, or do you just kind of feel it out?

I apologize for such a delayed response!

I really had to think about this ask, as the easiest response is to say that it's "vibes" based. I don't think I have a particular system but I will try my best to use words to describe the vibes based process haha.

The most important thing I think is to use colours that create a harmonious palette in the end, like complimentary or analogus colours, which is actually almost all colours if used in appropriate spaces (also appropriate hue/shades)

For example this chibi drawing I'm working on, the primary colour I used is green and pink. I could either use green (darker saturation less hue) or purple (dark hue high saturation) for the shoe.

if I used a really light blue here it would be a bit more confusing-- breaking up the shape of the shoe. And it also because it's on such a dark colour it clashes with what's meant to be the lightest colour of the overall piece.

It's similar to when you first learn to colour lineart because it adds dimension to the figure/object you're portraying opening a whole new world of possibilities...!

hi could you draw a fat pikachu...

[azolitmin]

Your art style is such an inspiration! I absolutely adore your use of color, composition, and painting style! I look up to your style as an artist! Do you have any particular artists that you look up to whenever you draw? (Whether it’s from history, fine arts, animation, comics, or social media?)

ahh thank you..!! I never know how to properly reply to such compliments and high praise but I really appreciate it 🥺

I feel like I tend towards liking individual pieces more than artists in general, but some artists whose that I've been really into for a good while (and that many people probably recognize) include:

Dan Mora Ikegami Yoriyuki Pofu31 Huangdanlan Ruprecht von Kaufmann Baek Duri (more recent find from IG algorithm! So amazing and green)

I can only aspire to be as good as them, hopefully soon!

Hello, can you share what kind of brushes you use on procreate please!?

Hello! I use a mix of Clip Studio and Procreate, I'm actually really bad at rendering on Procreate as I just can't get used to making full illustrations on it even though I think Procreate has better brushes 😂

When I do use it I really like using Tinderbox or brushes from the Gouache Maxpack

[azolitmin]

hi, i just wanted to finally say thank you for your incredible art. a few years ago i was so struck by your summer meltryllis piece that I made it my phone lock screen and it hasn't changed in between years and between new phones.

ahhh thank you so much..! I hope you don't mind if I publish this ask 😭 it really means so much to me when people show or tell me that they've been using my art for their lock screens / wallpapers!

I'm really happy you like that melt drawing especially because It's one of my least popular prints at cons LOL I remember being really proud of my art progression when I made it!! Thank you for telling me!!!

[azolitmin]

hi, I was wondering if you will be at anime expo? thank you!

Not this year unfortunately! I was not chosen during the jury process, hopefully next year though~

[azolitmin]

whats ur usual canvas size?

ah im sorry for such a delayed response >_< i usually start with 12"x18", though personally the dimensions of the canvas really depends on the mood of the drawing im aiming for! and i always work with 350+dpi!
