FAQ:

Which art program/brushes do you use?

I draw almost entirely in Clip Studio Paint, and primarily just use the default G-pen/circle brush, along with the gradient tool. I have a lot of other brushes and tools in my arsenal, but they're typically only used for background effects. I also draw with a tablet that doesn't have a screen.

How do you draw so fast?

A combination of the following: many years of practice, rarely undersketching (mostly drawing "straight ahead" and tidying up as I go), exclusively flatting with the paint bucket, having a simpler style in the first place, rarely shading my works, and good old-fashioned stubbornness. It takes me anywhere from 1-2 hours to finish a typical standalone piece (excluding things like comics and sketchpages).

Can you explain/elaborate on the ending of Elysium?

No. 💖

When do your commissions open?

Whenever I feel like it. Openings are usually announced on my bluesky account, with at least a few days' notice.

Can I commission you to draw your OCs? What about with other characters?

This is always okay, even for self-ship reasons. They don't happen too often, but I'm always very flattered by these requests.

Can I commission other artists to draw your OCs?

Yes, but please ensure they're okay with the subject matter first. There's no need to contact me about it, despite what I might have indicated in the past.

How do you feel about reposts?

I'm fine with them. Attribution is preferred, though I realize it's not always going to happen. Previously, I opposed reposting of my comics specifically, but I've since changed my mind.
