Weirdly Specific Artist Ask Game

Didn't see a lot of artist ask games, wanted to make a silly one.

(I wrote this while sick out of my mind last year and it's been collecting dust in my drafts, I might as well let it run free) 1. Art programs you have but don't use

2. Is it easier to draw someone facing left or right (or forward even)

3. What ideas come from when you were little

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

5. Estimate of how much of your art you post online vs. the art you keep for yourself

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously (i.e. this horse wasn't supposed to look like the Last Unicorn but I see it)

7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate

8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in

9. What are your file name conventions

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what

12. Easiest part of body to draw

13. A creator who you admire but whose work isn't your thing

14. Any favorite motifs

15. *Where* do you draw (don't drop your ip address this just means do you doodle at a park or smth)

16. Something you are good at but don't really have fun doing

17. Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what

18. An estimate of how much art supplies you've broken

19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

21. Art styles nothing like your own but you like anyways

22. What physical exercises do you do before drawing, if any

23. Do you use different layer modes

24. Do your references include stock images

25. Something your art has been compared to that you were NOT inspired by

26. What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended

27. Do you warm up before getting to the good stuff? If so, what is it you draw to warm up with

28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

toriidotnet

1. Blender (sits like a sad child on my laptop)

2. Even, it was facing right in the past that was difficult but after drawing glorified stickmen a million times —it just doesn't matter anymore!

3. My fixation on birds of Paradise, I have an oc named Reitorou who is my favourite species— a ribbon tailed Astrapia! (has not been posted here yet)

4. Machinery and hard surface objects. A pain to deal with in perspective + have to make it feel 3d like a real object.

5. 1 : 4/5 —I keep doodles to myself and a lot of personal other work. I only like posting finished pieces —last time I posted a wip was in 2024

6. I dunno on this one, I think about my work too much.

7. Oil and Guoache... they look so yummy

8. I don't think I got any cause I keep recycling stuff in my brain

9. Whatever is in my head —for files that pertain to printing, website stuff or general work files I make sure it makes sense or follow the standard.

10. Cravats, arm/leg warmers and flared pants definitely...

11. J pop mostly, or my fave playlist : "Rhythm Game Slop"

12. Hair probably, everything else changes in complexity for me.

13. Hmm.. Paul Heaston! I just admire his line work and hatching.

14. Batik Parang and Kawung are fun!

15. At home/kost or at campus/class when I'm bored. Some of my fave pieces were created or thought up when I was quite bored in class.

16. Doing line art for animations? I don't know what's not fun when you draw for yourself.

17. No, i don't like getting my drawing materials dirty +on traditional I use fountain pens and watercolour and they are water soluble so food and drink is an absolute no go!

18. I don't break them, I just leave them unused most of the time. I can only name one thing off the type of my head, a Platinum Meteor where I squeezed the nib too tight together that the ink would not flow ... 80k rupiah if I remember correctly but it was on discount so 40k

19. Cake and Ice Cream.

20. Breasts —most of the friends I know who draw can't draw them properly, they don't draw women that often. It's so satisfying seeing that lump of flesh sit properly against the chest, especially laying down! Gives dimension.

21. Paul Heaston, mgong520, rei_17... hmm I can't name that many...

22. Stretches for my back, does weekly maimai count too?

23. Not often for painting other than for touch ups, those are usually overlay and lightening modes for glow. With lineart, I set it at easy burn or multiply and then do the final touch ups like the painting process. The only special blending mode is pigment on drawpile to mimic traditional painting mixing.

24. Rarely. When I come up with poses, I usually just try to mentally visualise or act them out myself. Stock images are for animals and other things I don't commonly draw.

25. Nobody has every compared my art style before so I don't know

26. Not posted here yet but I have a drawing of Arakawa and Fusakin kissing but what was shown is only the hands clasping vigorously on his back against his capelet. It was so funny to think people thought it was another ship than my OTP lol

27. For lineart only really, just a more simpler object or just doodle around to not stiffen my lines.

28. Comifuro comifuro comifuro

29. All the manhwa, manga and anime I watch —I never get inspired by them at all ironically >~<""" I got more inspired by a frame by Greyhound (war movie on a ship) more than watching chainsawman or the manga.

30. It's always changing in my personal opinion but it's works that I attribute deeper meaning/symbolism through composition and lighting. Right now it's mostly my other ArakawaxFusakin drawings which are focused on gesture and romantic/carnal tension. (Can you tell this is what I find the most fun to draw?)
