hi im @jupitercl0uds and welcome to my art blog!!!!!!! my pronouns are they/them/xe/xem and you can find more about my personal stuff on my main >:D
i do not reblog others' art on this blog, all the posts on here are mine (including reblogs; those are from my alt accounts). art is tagged #art and text posts are tagged #not art (even if they're about art). i DO reblog art, however only on other blogs.
i also take requests and in the future, maybe even commissions!
i draw a lot of mario (mostly waluigi) and sonic fanart, but i also have OCs and stuff!!!
hope you like my blog ^^
FAQ (PLEASE read before giving an ask, the questions are super massive and bold so you dont have to do much reading to find your answer!):
'What programs do you use?'
for the majority of my stuff, whether it be illustration or animation, i mostly use krita!!! i highly recommend krita if you have a computer and tablet, its free, open source and has loads of great tools!!!! apparently tho, it doesnt always work on mac :((( im on windows (when i use krita) so i dont know if this issue is still big or not. still tho, highly recommend!!!
it has animation capabilities, too, but if you want to export it as anything but a png sequence youre gonna need 7-zip
alternatively, i occasionally use opentoonz, but i sometimes avoid it when its too complicated
i also like to use flipaclip and ibis paint from time to time!!! this is mostly when im on chromebook/phone ^^ these used to be my main 2 programs and i still love ibis so definitely recommend!!!!
occasionally i use ms paint or kleki, but i usually tag it as such
if i ever post any music or video editing stuff, then i use a whole load of programs for that so idk
'What hardware do you use?'
i usually use my laptop/chromebook and xp pen deco mini tablet!!! on some older posts, i've actually used my old deco fun L tablet, but that's broken now lol (not actually an appropriate use of 'lol' i unironically mourned that tablet). i recommend both, but generally, unless you want a bigger/cheaper tablet, go for the regular deco instead of the deco fun if you're doing art ^^
sometimes i use my phone and my finger tho!!! or one of those cheap styluses from time to time lol!!!!
'What traditional art supplies do you use?'
loads. at the moment, i mostly stick to daler rowney stuff, except for watercolours. i like to use koh-i-noor brilliant watercolours. they are, as they say, very very brilliant, in both ways. they arent all weird and powdery and VERY saturated!!!! they look quite generic but theyre literally so good, particularly for the cold colours - that being said, the black kinda sucks. the fineliners i use are uni pin fine liners and i HIGHLY recommend!!! everyone says 'buy microns' but i prefer them to microns. something about them idk. i also like to use tombow ABT markers for watercolours sometimes, particularly seeing as the koh-i-noors dont have a pink pigment.
for the links: i did buy the majority of my products in physical shops, but i tried to find a good online equivalent NOT on amazon.
ive never actually played gta v i've only watched other people play it. i vaguely know the characters of trevor, michael, franklin & lester and that's it. xoxo god bless as always.

i'm nowhere near fluent in IPA so i would never actually do this. by the way. also they're very very hard to draw. might consider working on them a bit more later cause this design isn't fantastic
ok i understand this looks like absolute bullshit but it works i promise. also things could have been worse (well i would say better but i think most people would say worse)
doodles largely propelled by my newfound urge to become a beautiful sensitive bishounen. im not even joking i am questioning my gender for the first time in years because i jokingly started pretending to be one but it was just too fun.

drawing of one of my friends' splatoon ocs!!! they're called goldie and they're based on a textile cone snail (the "inkling" equivalent name is cognasprelles). please go and check out their profile!!!!
