I've anonymously messaged before as well. But I felt like asking few other questions too!
To draw a part, since the panels for the part is already a story for you, how long does it take for you to draw? Like you finish it in one seating or take few days to make changes, sharpen up etc?
Also... Mind if I ask your fav characters from ST? Like maybe... Top 3 or top 5? It's totally cool if you do not wish to answer this because the fandom has some weird fans here & there 🤭
Great job! Keep drawing & exhibiting your talent 🥂💚
Oh Aa my process varies a lot. I work shifts and work a lot, so I draw whenever I have time. I can't do it in one sitting, a part usually takes me a week to finish. I think I can sketch a part in 5ish hours, and it usually takes a couple days. I like to have all the panels sketched before I start inking anything, in case I want to make changes to dialog and whatnot. Inking a part probably takes me 10-15ish hours depending on how many characters/backgrounds and whatnot. I have reeally bad time blindness when I draw though so I really can't say for sure. I did ink all of part 9 in one day though. I was very excited about that one and I had a day off lmao.
And I do wish to answer and you'll be lucky if I stop lol anywayyy... Top 3 favorite characters (and it won't surprise you):
1. Mike Wheeler (sometimes) He's so interesting to me. I look at him and wonder what goes on in his head and since the writers never tell us I'm just gonna say it's an infinite loop of those lawless Byler edits where it's Noah out of breath and Finn saying something out of context that I can't watch bc they trigger my asmr-phobia. Anyway, people get real creative about his internalized homophobia in a way that really gets me, and as a queer person, his story, and honestly the lack thereof (and the fact that he himself chooses it to be that way), has a kind of hold on me I can't really describe.
2. Will Byers (he overtakes Mike some days) I love him. I love his story. I wish him the best. The fact that we never see him truly get his happy ending hits me like a brick every time I think about it.
3. Robin. She's funny and relatable and she's the reason why s3 is like maybe my favorite season. Her scenes are always the ones I wanna rewatch. And this might a controversial opinion but the Russia and scoops troop arc was so fun to me I loved it.
Honarable mention: if s1 was the only season, Jonathan would be my all time favorite. His arc in that season is phenomenal and while I love him in later seasons, s1 Jonathan was just so well written. Fucking out of this world man. Relatable in a way I don't wanna go into on the internet lol
