I miss my taxidermy mentor. Like my ACTUAL mentor.

4. favorite character you've drawn

it can only be my newest OC! i could name any favorite character from anything to draw, but it's so rare that i come up with a guy of my own, i have to choose him :D i now have a "truesona" in him so that's really awesome. it can do anything i would do, or want to do!!

5. favorite little detail in a drawing you did

it's a simple detail, but all the smooth curved lines while drawing my sona. also i learned this detail: sharks is all triangles. LOOK AT ALL THESE TRIANGLES!

(^from a refsheet i'm not quite done with yet so haven't posted here)

13. favorite fandom to make fanart of

by far, spengebab.

it's funny, when i was as a kid, i didn't make fanart for just any things i watched, i had to be super autistic for ONE THING to draw for it (this did happen in the form of, well, dinosaurs in general of course like most other kids, but then for wolves after i watched Balto, and later lions after i found a The Lion King fansite.). i guess it's just taken me 20 years to suddenly get sponge autism???!!! because this was not one of the things i was hyperfixated on at all back then!!!!!!

i've already spoken about how returning to a less stressful, toony style to draw in will be/has been good for me :D i am for sure in my "colorful characters who are so Shaped" era. in time, i'd like to refine my style into one i can apply to other fanarts for things i like, e.g. i wanna draw my fav doom demons more cartoonishly than i do! (if you wanna see someone who's Not Me do that, you need to check out tumblr user doomguy and arborix, they are both my favorite artists in this field!!! if you love doom as much as i do you may know them already. i'm not gonna @ them because this post is supposed to be about MY art, but i just can't help it theyre too good not to recommend!!!)
