Hello!

What program and pen do you use?? Your art is so gorgeous and I want to test pens out that are outside of my comfort zone

wow, thank you!! i work primarily in procreate. unless you mean another piece, i assume you mean the brush ive been using for my sketches lately.

its the 'angled sketching pencil' from jingsketch's brush pack!

i do my rough sketch with a size 25 and then go back and detail with the same brush @ size 6. i've been enjoying it since i feel like it helps me keep the sketch soft and loose.

ty again!! i hope you make something cool with it!!

bruh the creep i had to romantically reject three times (four if you count her "lovesick ramblings" [direct quote]) in the span of not even a year and who called me a "jerk" and "insecure" for not wanting to long-distance e-date her unwarranted-evadaniil-porn-sending ass followed me after a year of no contact on the instagram i don't update, haven't posted on in a year, don't share any followers/following with her on, & that i only mentioned on this blog Once over 2 years ago. on Valentine's Day Eve out of all days. what in the maidenless behavior is this.

Hey so is afk arena fun to play? It looks like it would be too heavy and resource-hungry for my poor old phone, but also,,, I want to know,,,

(assuming you're talking abt afk journey, since arena is my general tag because it came first)

tbh like...I really couldn't tell you if my answer is yes because it's a genuinely enjoyable game, or yes because i was already attached to it from back when i played arena?

like objectively. the gameplay is just OK and really suffers in areas. one of the main progression mechanics involves setting your phone down to play itself while you go do something else. the writing is really just barely skirting at Decent, and the voice acting is straight up Bad in a lot of places.

but like. despite that ive still logged on every day like clockwork for like? a month and a half?? the art is good there's lots of little things to run around and do underneath the weird writing there are some true character gems. the gacha aspect is extremely forgiving. almost every option in the store is BONKERS expensive so ive never had an issue being tempted to go off f2p except the things that were Really worth it. its an afk game so you gain materials over time even when you're not playing so it feels like you're constantly progressing.

I guess jury's out on whether it's like Objectively good, but i do think it's worth a shot! important to know there's also a computer version if you want to save the space on your phone, though I've heard it's pretty buggy still

This is probably a little silly but I really wanted to send a message to say thank you for creating amazing art and keeping at this blog for years, and being such an inspiration to me and probably hundreds of other artists. I started reading TPOH and following your blog when I was a teenager and was obsessed and loved it SO much (we've actually met, once. My name is Farren and when I was seventeen in 2013 I think, don't hold me to the year lol I can't remember for sure, I made an RGB costume and met you at MCM expo in London - You were dressed as Mary Poppins I think. I was definately very socially awkward and felt like I was meeting a celebrity at the time lol). I have one of the signed first volumes of TPOH still on my bookshelf, sort of tatty from wear now. Back then I wanted to be an artist so much but school had sort of killed my love for it and I was a bit directionless. The effect of having a professional artist online in a space I shared, and the informality of it - the way you did your own personal work and had worked with animation companies working on communal projects and also did fanart, it took away the very dull, serious, intimidating view I had of the art industry, gave it a more informal, human face - and inevitably it inspired me to go to art school. I'm now a professional illustrator and write and illustrate kids books, I've had seven published, both fiction and non-fiction so far, and I'm loving it. Teenage me never would have considered that drawing silly, goofy things and writing funny little stories could be a career, young me never would have dreamed I could have a job doing something like my idols did. I'm so greatful for the inspiration you gave me back then, and I'm still keeping up with TPOH and being inspired by your work now, and I know there's hundreds if not thousands of other people out there in the same boat. It's a little out of the blue to send a message now so many years on; I don't even have a tumblr these days. But I discovered recently that my little cousin wants to go to art school because of me, and I thought it funny how inspiration works. I wonder what she'll grow up to create, and who she'll some day inspire to go into the arts - and how long the legacy of inspiring others will go even long after we've passed. It reminded me to come and say thank you for letting me be a part of that chain.

a) YES I REMEMBER YOU

b) SEND ME A DM
