Bandwagon!
Because I'm confused about my art and these questions pop in my mind too often.
- Why did you watch me initially?
- Why do you still watch me?
- What's your favourite thing to see from me?
- What's your least favourite thing to see from me?
- What would you like to see me do that I've never done?
- What do you think I should improve on?
Go on, don't be shyyy (the last one is anatomy btw).
Also tropical weather came to central Europe... I'M DYING HERE, CANT EVEN WOOORK Dx *puts 5 fans around*

Thanks for the opinion!
- Why did you watch me initially?
Because you have a really distinct style and I really love that about art. You also have a lot happening in your pictures, almost like a screenshot from a movie.
- Why do you still watch me?
The above and that you always come up with something original and challenge yourself all the time. I play it very safe, and find it inspirational when artists push themselves artistically.
- What's your favourite thing to see from me?
I love all you do, but I have to admit I really love your backgrounds as I suck so badly at them myself, so it's great to see someone who can pull it off so well!
- What's your least favourite thing to see from me?
I don't have any to be honest x)
- What would you like to see me do that I've never done?
Not that you haven't done any, but I would love to see some more experimental stuff, and I love your studies, especially those with a yellow-paper texture, looks like a da Vinci study :33
- What do you think I should improve on?
To be honest I don't think you have something specific you should improve on, you are very talented already, but there's always room for improvement. I don't know if your final goal is to be as realistic as possible, or have a mix of your own style and realism or something entirely different. If you're aiming for realism and if I were you, I'd probably try to get more differences in your highlights and shadows of your characters, mix a bit more between hard-edged shadows and soft. It's fun to do and you get a very nice 3D-effect if you get it right! :D<3
Me likes fake screengrabs... I can't get rid of it :"D
And I envy arists like you who can stay on "one place" for some time xD I feel like I'm changing styles with every third picture.
DaVinci studies *blushes* you really know how to flatter meeee ;3;
YES that thing is tricky, I've been told already from my closest friend to try it. I seriously need to do some studies of this technique. I'm myself not sure for what I'm aiming... the most of my reenactor friends commission me with historical portraits and compositions where the style is clear, but I would also love to go for more professional and realistic approach - so I can work as a pro concept-artists one day.
Thanks so much for your opinion! ♥
Ahh, this is why I love movies, they truly are like moving paintings! I love a director who's got the ability to use both camera-angles, colors and movement to portray a story. And plus if it's in an imaginative or original way!
I envy artists that can change, haha xD
Aww, you are quite welcome! I really do love them<3
Yeah, it is. It is tricky because you are training your eyes to see shadows that your eye normally overlooks. Hence why working in greyscale makes learning it a lot easier, because in real life, some shadows aren't in a darker/lighter value of the main color, it is mostly in a completely different color if you know what I mean :33 Oh! Try to catch Falvie's livestreams, they should help you! She's a lot quicker than me to get the shadings correct, I bet you can learn a lot from that!
You are most welcome! I don't know how to do a fancy black heart, so you get a big one instead! :DDDD
