Hello, Lightsen! I hope you are having a wonderful day first of all!! Second, what type of brushes do you use to color your awesome artworks? I always wanna eat your art, especially the Maxie works I LOVE HIM! Thirdly, could we get some of him enjoying a coffee? (Bro needs it..) Sorry to bother you! Have a lovely day!!! :D
so typically i just use the generic soft airbrush in clip studio to shade. I do have a painty effect brush but haven't found too much use of it at the moment. and the cloud brush goes hard for background work.
ill share a WIP of the latest maxie to show how its done usually
Thank you so much @lightsen for making all this nice art!! I love it!! Thank you also for the lovely extra original fan art and the stickers!! ❤️❤️❤️ I got so happy when I saw it! ❤️❤️
one more piece finished of them :D
having fun with new clip studio
my previous post was closer to the game art style, this one i wanted to go more my style, and go a little more silly with it
Restock notice of Maxie and Archie Pins!
Also a general reminder that the maxie and archie 2 piece keychains are not going to be restocked, so they are the last few available :3

YOU FED MY MAXIE LOVE WHEN IT WAS BEGINNING HAUSHEEH also your ocs look really cool🥹🥹🥹 im planning on ordering one of your maxie keychains through a friend once i get the money .,,,,,. youre really cool and im sorry this isnt a request but i was scared that tagging you in a post would just make you not see it or that it would be too much🤔🤔ok
tldr: i love your art and you're just overall really cool and admirable and i wanted to thank you<333 /p /vpos
Thank you so much that's very kind of you! ;v;
That reminds me I need to restock the maxie pins this month when I get time. <3 thank you for the support! and there will always be more maxie when i get some self time that isn't wrapped up in my personal projects at the moment haha
Reps In Retail is an upcoming slapstick, character-driven animated comedy.
Now that production is moving along, I'm going to be showing more of it.
Care to help give some characters voices?
I have a casting call open!
casting ends midnight GMT March 31st, and all positions (once selected) are paid roles. Cheers x
Payment is in GBP(great british pounds) over Paypal, and is £4 per line, with a minimum of £150.
Sending out a casting call for the first episode of my new animated show, Reps In Retail! It is a reboot and remake of a past project known as 'Lizard Cops', with a new premise, setting, and concept.
This show will be hosted on YouTube here with examples of my previous work:
https://www.youtube.com/@lightsen
The details:,
Looking for two manager characters (female) and two shopkeep characters (male), details included in the document. Have fun with the direction and line reads!
Norma Mall Manager Age: 50sGoes by: She/HerSpecies: Frilled Lizard Job Description: Norma is the most senior of the Mall Staff at MetroMa
I am specifically looking for unique accents from around the UK, don't feel pressured to conform to the norm!
Please only apply if you intend to continue as this character if selected, This will be an ongoing series and I need people who are able to reprise their roles for future episodes if the show continues as hoped. Animation is solo work by myself and as such it is a very slow process, you will not be asked to drop everything and record, there will be plenty of time between episodes.
when sending in lines, please use this format:,
CHARACTER NAME_Your name or username.
example:
Norma_John101Smith
If you do different accents for the character, you can add a number to the end to link them together. like:
Norma_John101Smith 2
Please do not send Zipped folders, if you need more space for the email, split it up to multiple emails, or use a google drive link. The file names should keep your auditions together.
And please do not just send a reel with no audition lines. But you are free to include a reel along with your lines if you'd like.
*AI WILL NOT BE USED IN ANYWAY ON THE PRODUCTION OR WITH ANY AUDITION MATERIAL*
Talking About My Favorite Artists PT. 3 ✨ @lightsen
Hi again, everyone! I’m back with another appreciation post, and this one is super special to me, so I hope you enjoy!!! :D
Today’s post is dedicated to none other than the legendary @lightsen!
@lightsen is a talented artist who is known for their art, merch, and video making for a couple of fandoms: Mainly Pokémon, sprinkled with a dash of Undertale. Within Pokémon specifically, lightsen is notorious for their plentiful Maxie and Team Magma artwork, which is my personal favorite aspect of their blog. For those who are diehard fans of Team Magma, this is one of the blogs for you! Lightsen was actually one of the first artists whose art I saved into my camera roll when I discovered you could save pictures from the interwebs lol XD.
But all-in-all, I love this artist, and I think they should get even more love on top of the love they have accrued. So, beneath the traditionally attached artist artwork, I’ve drawn a commemorative piece of lightsen’s OC, Zink, and Maxie alongside one another! I hope you enjoy!! Thank you for being amazing, Lightsen! Love from the feywild!
ART BELOW BELONGS TO @lightsen
ART BELOW THIS POINT BELONGS TO ME!!!
I will do art for @thehungwy and @daisilynn as well! I hope you enjoy this series so far!
