Journal Entry: Tue Apr 28, 2009, 7:20 PM
  • Mood: Devious
  • Listening to: Pokemon Platinum bg music
  • Playing: Pokemon Platinum, Suikoden Teirkreis, Disgaea DS
  • Eating: Copic nibs
  • Drinking: Copic ink
EDIT: SESSION IS OVER.
There were waaaay more people coming in than I thought there would be! But it went very smoothly, so I'm happy. Thank you :icone1n: for being my chaos-controller and man-anatomy helper! I'll hold more sessions in the future, and like always, I'll announce it before in  my journal. Hope that was helpful for those who attended! :heart:


I'll be holding a open Q&A session in my chatroom for anyone to come in and ask questions, get advice and critiques.
Feel free to come and join, but please read the rules first!

:star: Chatroom :star: [link]

This chat session will be different from my previous ones in that it will be strictly art-related. There are a few guidelines, so please take note of them:

1. Do not go off topic and start talking about the weather, the swine flu, what anime you're watching, who you have a crush on, etc. For this session, it will be ART ONLY :)

2. Please take turns asking questions! It can get very chaotic in the chatroom when there's tons of people, so if I'm in the process of answering someone else, wait until I'm done.

3. Keep in mind that I work almost completely in TRADITIONAL mediums. I am not a digital artist, and the most I can do with Photoshop is edit my scans and doodle stuff with a brush tool. If you have advanced CG'ing questions, I'm not the person you'll want to ask.

4. I don't know everything. Obviously. Please don't get mad at me if I can't come up with a solution to your problem D:


If you guys could follow those four simple rules, I'll be very happy to help out however I can. Feel free to come in and discuss!

:star: Chatroom :star: [link]

See you in there!

I know it's late, but just one Question...What markers do you use (Does Prismacolour need water?)

:iconshachiitohikari:
Jo-sama, if I may ask, please answer :D

How many copics did you have at the first time? Did you always buy in a pack or one by one?

And..do you have tips for drawing anatomy in the right size? Cause I'm always draw too small-hands, and the feet was never get right. Does it because of less-experience age?

Hmm..I think that's all -3-
It would be nice if you reply these ^w^

O yeah, just wanna say I really really love your art. I wish I could be a great artist like you if I was bigger :3

Here's a question from a long time fan of your work (not meant to be stalker-y, I promise ;D)

I really want to be good at drawing, but I never can manage to put myself in front of paper and draw. I find myself doing things that are really not creativity conducive, like playing video games or being on Facebook 24-7. How do you make yourself draw? Does it take any effort? I am a major procrastinator, so any advice helps ^^

I'm also a procrastinator, but I think that if you do like art, then you shouldn't have much trouble getting yourself to draw. I get sidetracked often, but in the end, drawing is still my hobby and stress-reliever. I don't actually have to force myself to draw because it's something I choose to do for fun.

Try drawing things that you like and remove yourself from any possible distractions. Sometimes I bring my drawing stuff to a coffee shop (where there's no internet or games) and draw there for a few hours. It might help if you're easily distracted :)

Thank you so much for answering my many questions during the chatroom XD

Okay, so I have another question for you!

Will you be selling your ouran prints at anime expo? ^^
And about how much to your prints normally cost?
Reply
:iconcartoongirl7:
Yes I will, and it'll be $8 for 8x12 inch print and $15 for 11x17 inch
Reply
:iconpanda-monnee-um:
Yay!!! >_<
You're prices are really great :)

If you see a cheshire cat hitachiin twin buying a million prints at your table, that will probably be me! XD
