Day 2

I’ve got like 3 people requesting Koh for J10 and funny enough it happened to @alainaprana as well even though our characters don’t have mouths. ANYWAY it was fun to do XD

Art & Koh(c) @little-noko

Noko, this may be weird for you to understand, but do you know what your name means? What is the meaning of your name?

Well, yeah I know ? I actually took time to figure out my name. See. Noko was an abbreviation for Nokomis which mean “girl from the moon” in Ojibwe and “grandmother” AKA “mother earth” in Algonquian culture, it is related to maple as well. Both description fitted me very well.

Funny fact, my mother and most of my highschool friend called me “Mémé” which is kind of an equivalent of “grandma”. And I’m always distracted and kind of an air head which in french we define as “dans la lune”(in the moon). Sooooo I removed the -mis of Nokomis and that’s pretty much how I chose my pseudo-name a long time ago.

How'd ya come to make your avatar? i'd imagine you'd need some VERY clear ideas to come up with your bird/spider/thing? avatar.

Koh’s design is more symbolic then anything else. I had to reflect on myself to come up with elements that represented me as a person and it’s how they came to be.

I’m part native american so I was inspired of inuk titut design for their mask

Moth is often a symbol associated with creativity and raven are wise So I mashed those together until the amalgamation pleased me.There are key elements that I keep for myself as of why it’s there, but Koh as been the most satisfying mascot I ever had and I’m really happy that you guys like them!

'the paper crane orgin' is missing link at 54pt. Please link it at once, thank you

Uh. Thanks but RUDE ? Isn’t there a better way for you to phrase it then to make someone feel like they’re entitled to your every needs ?

[little-noko]

There you go, all fixed, thanks~

Noko, I would trade my life with yours but my life is as equally as bad as your life. So you're not alone in this. 😊

Look, I know you’re trying to cheer me up, but those words “I would trade my life with yours”, just feel plain wrongs to me. I would never wish upon anyone to went through half the shit I’ve been through in my life.

Everything I went through, my experience, my struggles, they happen. It’s life. It can happen to everyone and there will always be someone having it worse then I do.

I’ve grown from it and I became the person I am because of all those struggles I managed to went through. And honestly, I’m glad I got to experience this in a way. Because I get to help people facing similar struggles... I can share my experience for those in needs to encourage them to keep up.

I hope you understand that.

I'm curious about a couple of things: 1. How long have been an artist? 2. How did you get into Undertale?

I’ve been drawing since the age of two, I never really stopped, I acquired my first drawing tablet back in high school so I’ve been doing digital since the past 12 years or so.

I got into undertale when the game first came out, I played it and simply fell in love with it.

I don't want to be rude, but why do you use only the mug "reader's tears". The shortest jokes are the best ones and it's been a while. I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU NEED TO CHANGE DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT. I'm just saying that maybe you can use some more happier mugs sometimes and if you're in the mood, use the famous mug that you always use .If you don't, I won't judge you. It's your choice, your blog, your account. You do what you want.(also your art is amazing, you're one of the best!)

Here’s my mug. I’m not gonna change it any soon buddy. I’m fueling on actual emotional reaction from people that read or watch my content so it’s fitting.
