Hey there everypeoples!
I've been drawing for a very long time, but only got really into it recently. See, I taught myself how to draw, but that was a bad idea, because I had no idea how to draw. I had to stop paying myself; I should never have gone to me.

◆Your name?

One of my old friends calls me Mike for some reason.

◆If possible, your age?

16

◆When did you start drawing?

LONG time ago, but I only started trying to draw anime/manga style a little over a year ago.

◆Which hand do you use for drawing?

Right!

◆Which is easier to draw - male or female?

I’m not sure; I guess male.

◆Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?

Long hair is easier, but short hair is more fun.

◆Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?

o.O never thought about that. Left. Maybe.

◆Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
Front, though I’m getting better at side views. ^_^

◆What do you have problems with in drawing?

HANDS OMG. >_<”

◆What do you like to draw?

People. If you ask me to draw any kind of animal, I will bite you.

◆Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?

Very traditional. I’m not really interested in learning to use those newfangled editing programs.

◆Where do you start drawing from?

*confused by question* Um, I start at the head…?

◆What is a drawing habit that you are aware of?

I only draw on this slanted table-thingy * not an easel; don’t know proper name*.

◆What do you keep in mind when you do lineart?

If I think it looks good at present, I try to picture what it’ll look like after it’s shaded, since the end result will always look much different.

◆Any tips for coloring/shading?

Dun ask me. I suck at coloring AND shading.

◆How long does it take to finish a piece of art?

Depends on what I’m doing, but, say, a full RB page including pencil art, inking, and shading takes a few hours.

◆What music do you listen to while you draw?

Depends, but I try not to distract myself with it. Sometimes, I listen to audiobooks.

◆How long does it take you to come up with an idea?

Also depends; there are some ideas that I’ve been working on for months and still haven’t perfected, and others that come in blinding flashes of inspiration. XD

◆Your favorite drawing utensils?

Mah dip pen(s)! They make me feel special since I don’t know anyone else that uses them. :D

◆Your favorite color/the color that you use a lot?

Grey. Lolz.

◆Your favorite style(s)?

Manga/anime.

◆Are you satisfied with your current art?

God, never. XD

◆What kind of artist are you aiming for?

Someone who can rival the almighty :iconpyromeekorai:

And speaking of which, I tag :iconpyromeekorai: and :iconnim-nimi-chan:



I now have over 1000 pageviews. That's one small step for a dork.... one giant leap for his ego.

Dude how many panels do you usually do on your comics? btw this is Kevin.
:icon0mni42:
Yeah, I know it's you ;) Didn't I already say this (like twice)? I got some advice from this legitimate manga artist, and he said he usually has ten as his limit.
