When I make the Cupcake doll for the Cupcake World Tour I’ll make a cutest and bat, too. =w=
So, I should just stick with it even if they look like Dali clocks?
Well, you'll get better eventually. Oh, something else important -- learn how to use your arm, wrist, and shoulder properly. This video will give you a brief intro : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMC0Cx3Uk84
any chance of some Dan Kim piano action on a live stream? Please?
Ha ha ha, maybe one of these days. ;w;
With the early drills from Fun with a Pencil, should I do them over and over until I get really good at them (I suck at the moment) or do a fair amount, and then move on to the next set of drills, no matter how good or bad they all end up looking?
Try everything first to get a general view of the landscape, pick a point of interest, then drill in that area. Try to think of it as building a city that grows over time. You don't just build New York all at once, putting in all the foundations to every house, then all the bathtubs, all the doorknobs. You can't just build a skyscraper in isolation, either. You gotta have a small functioning village with skeletal services and then expand in piecemeal fashion, always having a functional city at each stage.So try and work on your drawing the same way -- build a rough skillset to get your legs, get a view of the land, then focus in on a specific area, then zoom back out and see what's changed, then go back in again. In practical terms this means something like draw a scene or figure without reference (skill test) --> then work on just gestures, solidity, or maybe faces, hands, perspective, etc. Anyway, you'll get a feel for it as you go on.
Hey, Dan, do you know Magic: The Gathering? If so, what's your favourite artist for it? Favourite colour? If not, get on it you scrub it's way fun
I quit the habit around Ice Age! I lost the taste for it and got more into video games instead. I always enjoyed themed decks ... my usual was black vampire rush + blue control/poke. Lots of dark rituals, vampires, terrors, prodigal sorcerers, counterspells, etc.
Can Felicia the Fucking Strong be one of Bikky's coworkers/former comrades?
How's Mother Child (I've got no clue how to type it properly) going? When can we expect to see anything from it?
Very slowly, since I'm concentrating on Vampire Bride, Cupcake, and On the Subject of Witches. Only so many hours in a day! I wouldn't expect to see anything until 2015.
Have you ever worked with something other than drawing?
Well, I did a bit of straight-up writing (for NNN) if you're restricting the question to narrative fiction. If you mean art stuff in general, I play a little piano (badly) and I'm trying to do a little work on a game on the side (I did that professionally for a few years).
Have you found any grey hairs yet? How old were you when you got them?
They've really been popping in this last year or so! About 5% white - wouldn't be surprised if I hit 10-20% in the next few years.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how cute would you rate yourself?
Oh man, Kiseki no Umi! I had completely forgotten about that one! One of the best OPs ever. Also really liked Rah-Xephon OP. Didja get a chance to watch that too?
I remember dropping it way back when. I love the song, though!
I must know which is the saddest cupcake in the world. I found one which was weeping for it's adorable waifu after a second season was delayed indefinitely - has Cupcake-chan ever been sadder than that?
Cupcake gets a ppl who do a h8 on her a cutest and SOvJELLY &do a meen trol on a caek. Really, she has suffered more than anyone.
dan how is EVERYTHING YOU DRAW so cute, damn
Ufufu~ Thanks~ =w=
>implying Sayaka isn't going down hill anyways
It may be slow going, but she'll get there eventually! No Sayakar needed.
