would you go to a host club if you could?
Have you ever thought of making a comic or game for your Crushing Lust world?
the plan is for it to be a comic, the outline is more or less done and i have like half a script written (it's currently 20 chapters) but i periodically fall off of working on it so it's just in limbo for now. i don't want to start drawing anything until i have the script mostly finalized bc i don't want to change my mind about significant plot points in the middle and have to redraw a bunch of things. basically i need to stop slacking off and work on it more o(-<
what are your favorite/often used krita brushes settings? i like Krita but i find the most hard to understand is to set up the brushes by myself! would like to see how you do it cuz i found your lines so fluid and precise! (its what i aim in my drawings to)
most of my art is actually done in clip studio paint, although i have been using krita a bit more lately. i like a lot of the brushes in these bundles (downloads are in the description), my go-to so far is one called Thin Brush Comic. i also really like the default chrome sketching brushes, they're weird and finicky but they work well with my usual method. basically when it comes to inking for me, the line has to go from extremely thin to extremely thick with pressure at a single size, and uses very little stabilization. anything else about it doesn't really matter, it just comes down to the ability to precisely control the pressure myself and achieve any line size
i'm not that meticulous about how clean my lines are either, i approach it more like painting by sketching and then erasing and adjusting as i go on the same layer, rather than making a new layer and drawing clean lines over the sketch. i find when i try that method things just end up looking very stiff and i lose all of the dynamism of the initial sketch. you can sort of see this in action in this video where i clean up a drawing in csp, i don't have any recordings of krita but the principle is the same in any program really
hope that makes sense/helps ^^
How many pet raising sims did you get into?
off the top of my head i can think of: neopets, tamagotchi, nintendogs, sims 2 pets, webkinz, chicken smoothie, aywas, subeta, howrse, flight rising, lioden, wolvden, the final outpost, the old PC petz games, and i also tried creatures recently. i would basically sign up for any random browser pet game i could find as a kid so i'm sure i have played more but those are the main ones i recall spending a decent amount of time with. lately i only actively play neopets and flight rising
do you have any plushies? if yes wich one is your favorite rn?
i do have quite a few plushies, but my favorite is indisputably one i have had for a loooong time named princess, a little no-name-brand pink bear that is weighted with plastic beads that i basically imprinted on or something as a child LOL. i took her everywhere, made her outfits, wrote tomes full of lore for her, she has had a very fulfilling life full of love and adventure and i am still very attached to her. i will share pictures
what are your top 5 chibifur of all time
HMMM pokemon are the most obvious answers here, i have loved jirachi and mew ever since i was a tiny child. especially jirachi, wish maker was my favorite pokemon movie for the longest time (if you go back and re-watch this now it feels like such a barren film, but there's something about the tone that stuck with me i suppose, and ofc the biggest factor being that it stars my manic pixie dream chibifur jirachi). i'm a fan of most small chibi pokemon really
as for some others, if they count pompompurin and my melody. AND, katy from the fantastic adventures of unico is sooooooo cute to me i love her so much. an extremely niche answer is this one character from a yaoi manga that i am a long time fan of, named tsuburaya norio, who transforms into this little monkey-cat hybrid creature who honestly just looks like katy if she went goblin mode LOL
moogles are my favorite final fantasy race, the best designs imo are the fluffy orbs from crystal chronicles who you can spray paint different colors and shave bald
and i have mentioned i was madly in love and lust with keppi from sarazanmai for a while
that was definitely at least five right. i love too many lil guys it's too hard to rank them all u_u
Are there any toys you like to collect?
these days i don't actively collect anything but i was a toy hoarder when i was younger. i still have my webkinz and neopets collections, pokemon toys... one sort of unique thing that i collected for a while were mega bloks dragons, i was obsessed and blew so much pocket money on them lol. here's a wiki page about the line, they have a surprising amount of lore and came with illustrated trading cards and even cd games (sadly i have lost my cds though). i will post some photos of the ones i have :)
