i cannot fathom enough how much I LOVE your art!!! it's such an inspiration for me, specially when you draw the characters in south asian attire. I get beyond excited whenever i see them AAAHH!! i was curious, i noticed you've also been playing hsr, what's your opinion on aventurine? :3 (totally not asking because he reminds me of kaeya HAHAH)

Aww that makes me happy to hear 🥹 thank you, you’re so sweet!!

I have been playing!! I’m super casual at getting thru storyline, so I haven’t finished Penacony yet, BUT! From what I do know and have seen of Aventurine, I love him to bits!!! Haha I can see that! I also see a bit of Tartaglia in him too, which is another character I adore. So all around it’s like that venn diagram meme of what characters have in common with other characters! 🤭

How did you improve your art so fast? It's pretty amazing. The anatomy especially :0

Aw thank you!! Honest to goodness, I think a lot of my improvement came down to utilizing 3D models. Don’t be afraid to play around with them! They help me when it comes to layout and certain angles that are tough to visualize without something to manipulate in that space. It’s a useful tool just like any other brush or program creatives use. There’s such a stigma around using 3D models, but it’s like using those little wooden model people in art!

you have some beefleaf fanart i really want to buy, would you consider posting them on inprnt as well?

Aw thank you!! I appreciate the interest so much!! A while back, I was kindly educated that it wasn’t proper or allowed to sell mxtx fanart (which I totally understand and am glad I was told!!) so I don’t have any up on my inprnt. I’m working on some sample prints through another manu, therefore my tgcf fanart will likely become freebies when I do open a cheaper shop ☺️.

will we ever get to see a desi hualian doodle from you 🥺

Ooo a very good question! In all truthfulness, it’ll be a no. I wouldn’t dare to disrespect anyone or offend anyone by making them desi when they are inferred to be Hmong/Miao and Chinese. When it comes to Haikaveh, the inspo is looser since sumeru draws inspiration from the South Asian region. I wouldn’t feel good about doing that to hualian. This is just my opinion, if anyone else has any other thoughts, especially those of the Eastern Asian diaspora, I’m open to hearing them!

Hi!!! Your work is just phenomenal!! Mind if I ask how long each art piece usually takes? (give or take?)

Aw thanks!! It really really really depends! I once worked on something that took as long as 17-20 hours while there was one that only took 2-3 hours. I think there are times where something takes control of me and I have an out of body experience while working on art. Then there are the pieces where I’m overthinking a lot and tend to do or redo rendering.

I’ve been wishing to get some of your Haikaveh for some time now. Is there any chance you’ll sell prints of these 🥺

Yes indeed! I’m working on setting up a cheaper shop than what I currently am using with inprnt. I want to be able to provide something that’s more cost effective to you all instead of something spendy 🥺

I have a question, I really like your art and was hoping if you'd also do vtubing commissions to make the png?

Hello!! Aw thank you! Oooo I’ve never done a vtubing commissions before, but I’m open to learning. I honestly have been doing my own research about it recently too ☺️

Kaeya’s eyepatch · 6mo

Hi hi, can you please add that one HaiKaveh kiss art piece to your inprnt (the one you have as your twitter pf cover)? I would love to have it on my wall <3

Oh gosh! So sorry it took me this long to answer!! Yes of course, I’ll add all my new artwork to my inprnt ☺️ I just have to spend a bit of time to adjust the files since inprnt has a picky uploading system. But I’ll make an announcement once everything is updated!! ☺️🫶🏽

Hi Samairu, I could have sworn you had a Patreon and I was looking to support you, but I can't seem to find a link to it anywhere! I'm really bummed about this because I've been wanting to do it for so long, and now that I can, I'm struggling to find it? Do you actually have one or am I just imagining you do? If not, is there some other way I can support you monthly? Thanks in advance!

Aw gosh this is unbelievably kind of you to say! I do not have a patreon but I do have a ko-fi! Honest to goodness, I’ve never even thought about this sort of support before, as I never even fathomed id get to a point where I’d have the luxury of a kind following. But I do!! You all are so kind and sweet, I am so BLESSED to have such warm and loving people here with me.

But please gosh, I really appreciate the support but I am happy with just likes and comments and shares 🥹

Thank you so much for making characters in Indian Attire. It's really nice to see our culture go into other fandoms. Thank you so much. And your art is awesome. I hope I can see more genshin characters in Indian wear. Honestly I don't many people here(in India) who know much about genshin impact so seeing that I am not alone is really nice

Aw of course!! It makes me happy to see them in South Asian attire too ☺️ I grew up in a town where my culture was poked fun at and essentially invisible, so this is me kinda of making younger me feel seen and represented 🥹

Hello I just started my art journey and your account was like yes I want to be like her someday!! As a beginner to art I am really interested in learning colour theory and light and shadow skills…..may I ask how did you study them ? And if there are any courses that helped you along the way ? I love love love your account btw!! Lots of love from India!!

Aw you’re really kind!! Thank you 🥹 in 100% honesty, I learn all I know from observing and studying other art styles. If there’s something specific I love, I end up bookmarking it or saving it to a folder called “drawing inspo” because it helps me form a vision for how I want my art to eventually look.

I’ve not taken any courses, it’s all been self study 🥹 it just bubbled down to years of practice, but I do have “how to draw” books from India to thank as my building blocks for lighting and shading.

I suggest building your own vision board, because then you’ll have something to look back to as a goal. ☺️
