Hi mister.

This is some lovely lovely artwork.

It's absolutely gorgeous!

You deserve a cookie.

I want to draw & color just like you when I grow up, you know!

Cheers!

Thank you : ) I don't really have a place where I put a list of my prices (I guess I really should), you can pm or email me with what you want and I can give you a quote. I give discounts on bulk orders C:

@Celectis: Guys take me longer to draw than girls. So I hope to one day be as good as you in drawing guys! ;A;

Great picture! With a good, well-matched background, this could be quite a stunning one :) If I may ask, why they take you more time to draw? I always thought men are far more simple to draw (excluding muscly guys), because they're sometimes far less expressive than women and you don't have to worry about all these bumps and circularities :D

; o ; SO CUTE. I love how loosely yet clean your sketches are. You obviously have a nice grasp on anatomy and composition. Very fluid and dynamic! :D And silly Aqu. You're already much better than me. It's reverse, I want to be as awsum as you! <3

lovely sketch! I like the dynamism of it all.
I particularly like the hand there :P

May I ask... do you sketch loosely and clean like that from scratch or do you sketch a structure base firsts or a roughed version first and then you "clean it" to get it like that?

When drawing something, anything, USE REFERENCES!! Use your Google-fu!
Don't trust your memory, and don't blindly trust what others teach you either.
Research, observation, analysis, experimentation and practice are the key! (:

I sketch all on one layer, and then I erase my guidelines. The process kind of goes like this xD

Hm, that is indeed interesting as well as useful, thanks for sharing!

You really have a talent. Your working methods require many months of practice and a solid abstract notion, only few are able to achieve. If I may ask - how long do you draw, and how much time do you usually spend drawing or sketching? I'm looking to see more cool stuff from you! :)

Thank you, I'm really not that great though xD
The sketch of the girl with the brown curly hair and animal ears took about 10 minutes, line art took about 30 minutes, and the colouring about 1 hour : )

Oh, I rather meant how much time do you devote to drawing in overall, my bad choosing the wrong words :) but thanks anyway. I'm also able to draw quite nice stuff, but it takes me almost three times more to finish a similiar simple sketch. Lack of practice :D Used to draw a lot in the past, I wanted to become an artist some day or at least someone able to do a decent artwork... To bad I'm not able to do it nowadays...

Would you be interested in employment, or at least commision-based contract? I might hire you to do some backgrounds and maybe even something more. Do you have any certain plans for the future? If you don't want to tell here, just send me a PM :)

Ah sorry, I didn't read carefully enough. >_< I'm freelancing full time right now since I'm on summer break, but I don't get to draw as much during the school year. I currently have a lot of work lined up (mostly non-VN stuff actually), but I'll probably be interested in work a few weeks from now : D Thanks for asking.
