🥁 Hi there! I’m a 19 year old hobby artist with a passion for designing OCs and fantasy/sci-fi characters. I’ve been drawing seriously for the past three years, but only got into digital art in September 2018. I’m active on Twitter (@KentuckyTheFry)
🎷 I’m a commission artist with a media background. I enjoy drawing cats, plants and lgbt+ topics. You can find my art on my website at juliusjoki.com, on instagram at @kissegram or on twitter at @kissecatte.
🎸 Hey there! Im an art student, I draw on both digital and traditionnal, mainly fandom stuff~ You can find me on twitter and insta @Licoriceroll , and tumblr @lico-arts :)
🎻 Hi, I’m Linkyu; I am here as a digital artist, but I’m also an independent game developer at Duality Workshop. My favourite genre is Sci-Fi, closely followed by Fantasy. I like to write dark themed stories, but most of the time I’ll make sure to make them hopeful. I don’t like sad endings. I'm currently most active on twitter, where you can find most of my recent art here: https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3ALinkyuTL%20%F0%9F%8E%A8&src=typed_query&f=live

🎻 I do, actually; it's the pinned post of my twitter: https://twitter.com/LinkyuTL/status/1197969362096992257
Do you listen to music (or tv shows/films/anything else) when drawing?
🎤 Between music and contingency podcasts.
🥁 All the time! I actually find it hard to draw WITHOUT something in the background. I usually listen to music, but if I’m in a particularly good headspace and have a ton of work to do, I’ll listen to episodes of Critical Role ~
🎷 I listen to music almost all the time and spotify is my best friend. I also watch a lot of documentaries while I draw.
🎸 I never do anything without music playing, silence gets too lonely ._.
🎻 Yes, although I tend to avoid lyrical songs because otherwise I end up distracting myself singing along and… not … drawing,,,
What’s your favorite music artist/band? If you could ask your favorite band/music artist one question, what would it be?
🎤 Nightwish. Are you ever gonna make a recorded concert with a full orchestra?
🥁 Right now my favorite artist is Aurora, and if I got the chance I would ask her for a hug - she strikes me as he type of person who would give good hugs xD
🎷 I don’t have a single favourite but I’ve been listening to a lot of Japanese rock music and city pop recently. Right now I’d like to know what art styles the members of BUCK-TICK find the most inspiring.
🎸 My favorite band is BBHF (ex Galileo Galilei)
🎻 Dave Grohl, by far. He is the musical embodiment of the philosophy that I adhere to.
Do you play an instrument? If not would you like to play one? Which one?
🎤 Guitar and keyboard.
🥁 I’ve been playing guitar for twelve years and violin for ten! If I got the chance I’d love to learn cello or harp.
🎷 I used to play the violin before I lost my instrument. I’m also interested in the bass guitar.
🎸 I never took actual classes but a friends taught me the basics of ukulele and piano. Outside of that I just sing a lot~
🎻 I've played a fair amount of bass guitar, and some normal guitar too. I've started picking up the keyboard again for composition too, and I'd like to do some drums too in the future, actually.
Which song(s) are you going to draw?
🎤 Children of Bodom - All Twisted
🥁 I’m drawing Godhunter by Aviators! (It’s a BOP, highly recommend)
🎷 Morning Hangover by King Quartz
🎸 Im drawing Tsugi no Hi from BBHF
🎻 Definitely Hail to the King, from Avenged Sevenfold. Maybe more?
What do you expect from this zine?
🎤 Keep improving my art skills and find some interesting fellow artists to follow.
🥁 I’m challenging myself, in a sense! I always tell myself I’m gonna draw something based on one of my favorite songs but I never do, so this zine was a great opportunity to just sit down and say “yes! I’m drawing this!” ~
🎷 I’m excited for creating original work and illustrating music as well as looking at how other people have interpreted songs that I know.
🎸 I think it's great to step ouf of my confort zone when it comes to illustrations: drawing for a song can be a lot more abstract than drawing for a specific character. Being more loose with the interpretation is pleasantly freeing ^^
🎻 I'm mostly in it for more incentive to draw. I don't get commissioned very often, and I tend to neglect my art for other hobbies instead, so participating in zines forces me to keep the pen moving, you know what I mean? Besides, I get to see some nice art and the DotZine community has been great, so, it's also a nice ride.
Anything else you want to add?
🥁 Just some words of inspiration - whatever it is you’re doing, whatever you’re going through, don’t give up on your dreams! You’re stronger than you know 💕
🎻 Keep Rocking 🤘
