FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Art Questions

How Long Have You Been Drawing?
In general, since I was a toddler
In terms of digital art, about 2007 (MS Paint/Pixel Art)
2010 (Photoshop/Illustrations)

Do you use a tablet?
Yes

What kind of tablet do you use?
Mainly Huion Kamvas 20
I also have a gen 7 Ipad that I use less frequently

What programs/apps do you use?
Main Illusts: Clip Studio Paint
Backgrounds/Designs: Photoshop

What inspired you to start drawing?
I've always been drawing but I'm fairly certain I stuck with it as a coping mechanism lol

How long does a drawing take?
I used to keep track, they'd take me anywhere from an hour to 4 hours, then 8-16 hours as I got more detailed.
Since then they vary wildly depending on what I'm doing, so I can't give a super solid answer unfortunately. I'd guestimate 4-24 hours depending on the piece

How many hours do you draw daily/weekly?
Again this varies wildly, sometimes I draw all day every day and sometimes I might not touch the tablet much at all during a week. It heavily depends on what's going on and what kind of projects I'm working on.

Do you draw traditionally?
I used to about as often if not more often than I did digitally, but now I mostly just do digital. But I still enjoy pencil sketches and painting occasionally!

Do you only draw anime?
I CAN draw things other than anime, but I tend to not enjoy it as much, therefore I do it more infrequently.

What kind of brushes do you use?
MOSTLY defaults on the programs I use.
For Lineart I use G-pen:

For Shading I use the watercolor brushes:

For coloring in base colors:
-I use the bucket tool (Referring to other layers)

Then there's the magical select/fill tool everyone asks about, which you can find here

Any others are in Clip Studio's Assets!

Have you gone to school for art?
I went to an art college for graphic design for two weeks and dropped out, so otherwise I'm fairly self taught

How is your lineart so smooth?
I really really don't know how to answer this, other than to tell you to try for long singular strokes. You need pressure sensitivity and stabilization on whatever program you are using. I've found personally it's harder to have nice lines on ipad/phone despite having pencils/styluses.

Who Inspired you to draw?
Myself
I draw for me
Makes me happy c:

Do you have tips?
This is so wildly vague that I literally have no idea what to say. I don't know what kind of knowledge or experience each individual person has and those kind of tips would need to be tailored to that information.All I can say is the best way to get better at what you're doing is to DO it. You can't get better if you don't try. I'd also advice watching/studying the art of people you admire. Don't stop trying!And also keep in mind, art is not a race. There is no finish line. Take your time and have fun!

Video/Stream Questions

What do you use to do speedpaints?
I record the drawing process in OBS (Open Broadcasting Software) and speed it up/edit it in Adobe Premiere Pro.

What do you use to stream?
I stream in Streamlabs OBS
The Vtuber avatar I use is window captured from VtubeStudio.

Vtubing and Live2D Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Vtuber?
A Vtuber is a "Virtual Youtuber" or otherwise virtual avatar/persona representing yourself or a character online via youtube or other video/streaming platforms.

How do I become a Vtuber?
Anyone with the time/money/desire can become a vtuber.You can either do it 3D via webcam or VR capture (usually the models are made in Vroid studio or Blender). This tends to be the cheaper option.You can also stream in 2D via a Live2D avatar which is what I use/am more familiar with. This tends to also be the more expensive option because drawing and separating art along with the rigging can be a long and detailed process.

What is Live2D?
Live2D cubism is a program designed to take parts of a 2D image and rig them to give them motion/more of a 3D look. Live2D is often used in gatcha games (such as Azur Lane) to give the characters a bit of movement instead of a static image, or in visual novels to animate sprites to emote/breathe/etc.Live2D is also used in the same way to rig 2D images to be captured by a program that will interpret those files to match movements captured by a camera.

What programs can I use?
There is Facerig, which can capture for 3D or Live2D via webcam.
There is PrPrLive which captures your webcam for Live2D.
There is Animaze, Facerigs next program releasing that is supposedly better but will be subscription based.
There is Vtube Studio, which has the best capturing ability for Live2D and works with webcam and iPhone.

Can you rig my art?
I can if you have already separated the art correctly. If it's not separated I won't accept it. If it's separated but not correctly, I can separate it correctly for a fee.

What does "Separating" mean?
The way Live2D works, is you are warping and animating each movable piece onto separate keyframes. Each moving part of the art needs to be on it's own layer and oftentimes needs to be extended, so when the model moves, there is no gaps where the art stops.
If the art isnt separated well, the rig will be both difficult to do and also low quality.
Each facial component, hair pieces, arms, legs, clothing parts, special poses/animations, tails/ears, accessories, etc all need to be on their own layer.
Otherwise the piece cannot be rigged!
