This is very random, but I wanted to say that your art means very much to me. You have such a distinct, interesting artstyle that's really refreshing and different from the typical anime guys, it's really similar to the "non-perfect charm" regular people have in real life. And your work on the backgrounds is very unique and beautiful too, it reminds me of some old cartoons a bit. I'm really looking forward to if you make more art! Also I'm really interested in your headcanons and thoughts about the characters of The Untamed, for example which one is your favourite. Wish you inspiration and energy and such things!
Oh my god, thank you so much for your kind words!!!
I am well, and alive, and I have so many sketches and ideas for comics. Unfortunately I am also kind of a perfectionist, so it takes me unholy amouth of time to draw a single page.
When it comes to The Untamed I could talk forever about everything I love about this show. Which is pretty much everything except the characters.
I don't really get it when people argue about their blorbos. All the characters used to be innocent, but they sullied themselves when they faced difficult situations in adulthood. I got nostalgia baited by The Untamed, thinking it'll be some kind of lighthearted highschool comedy about teens going on an epic adventure to collect MacGuffins and save the world. I ended up with a bunch of broken people, criminals and murderers. Story that made me feel their anxiety, loneliness, all-encompassing sense of dread, and feeling like there is something fundamentaly wrong with the way the people of this world function.
Perhaps I got invested too much in the story.
So, my favorite character prior to ep 10: pretty much everyone, especially Meng Yao and Wei Wuxian
My favorite character after finishing ep 50: no one. Or maybe Nie Huaisang. Not as a character, but as an embodyment of childhood innocence (he literally triggers Wei Wuxian's flashback of the Cloud Recesses study arc, personaly my favorite scene in the whole series). At this moment we don't really know him as a person, but we are fond of the memory of their bygone friendship.
Thank you for your kind message and for providing me with an excuse to rant about the characters I love and hate at the same time.
