[2700k-moogie]

I think i’ll try and answer as many of these as i can lol

1. There was this one program for my shitty old laptop i got for my birthday when i was younger that i pretty much only used like 5 times, i forgot the name of it but it sucked or maybe i just didn’t know how to use it, i still have the disc for it somewhere?

2. Usually i try and vary what direction the folks in my drawings are facing (especially when there’s like 5 that are pointing in the same direction in separate drawings chronologically), but i usually draw them facing to the left. Maybe it has something to do with being right handed? I have no idea.

3. I can’t think of any off of the top of my head (brain failure. i had covid a couple months ago so i blame it on that lmfao) but i do remember some of the really old stuff i did before i started drawing digitally, maybe those count. Some old comics that i worked on in middle school to show to a friend of mine when he (rarely) came to school.

4. Everything is a bitch to draw i need practice because drawing is aggebrnsgsbnendjd DIFFICULT!! But i can say that my secondary fursona, an isopod named Ia (like the letters i and a, I don’t know how that will display on other tumblr themes and whatnot). All of the chitinous scales on their back are a  pain in the ass and i usually give up :( Also clouds. Love em, the puffies and yah but like?? They kill me i suck at making them look good aaaurg.

5. Oh i post most things, tho sometimes i crop drawings because of bits that I don’t like or whatever. i admit that i rarely draw (((bare boobies))), but i never share that publicly, and most likely never will. i think it’s healthy and useful to my transition to express my feelings about my body thru art for myself. But none for y’all im 17 who do you think you are??

6. I don’t know, but for sure. i can’t say exactly what but eug idk. im going through a existential crisis over whether or not i have free will, so e

7. I like a lot of the looks that some anime and manga have, plus a lot of older children’s animated shows n stuff. i became disillusioned with anime a year or two ago after realizing that i despise reddit and all of the anime communities that i was a part of. Makes me shudder lol. I still like to watch some animes like Mob Psycho 100 and stuff tho, like ghibli movies and those 80s OVAs, those are cool. For the childrens animated stuff, obv I don’t like most of the modern stuff because it’s just addicting 5 year olds to mindless consumerist mindsets. I mean they’ve always done that but blehhh. Generally theres stuff that i like because it reminds me of when i was younger and didn’t know i was depressed haaaaahh. Oh right, i really like music from the late 90s through the early 10s, because it was the stuff my mom loved to listen to around me. She still does, but not as much unfortunately.

8. So many things. Blaming depression amongst other things like school hah uha. Euh. Im kinda bad at coordinating and stuff, plus im terrible at committing. 9. Usually nothing (i work in procreate so I don’t technically have to name things) so it just ends up being seas “Untitled Artwork.” When i do name things it ends up kinda silly. Just grabbed some, here we go: “KILLING YOU” “Rona Vahrus” “Overwhelming Thrust Instead of Aerodynamic Stability” “Forehead” “BACK PAIN HOTLINE” “Holy Shit Outside”

10. Socks are fun but i like to draw sports bras. That’s usually what i draw Meni in because i like to wear sports bras myself and i like to dress my fursonas up like me. Except for ia. i haven’t really figured out how to put clothes on them yet because they’re shaped weird. Fishnets, robes, and panties are fun too but they have their own place. (Drawing characters in their underwear is how you show off they tummy and how fluffy they are yay)

11. Yeyeye! I listen to so much music so often. I can’t remember the last time i drew without music or at least something going on in the background to keep my ears occupied. Theres a ton of artists i like but rn im mostly listening to Left at London and David Bowie songs atm. Speaking of which, im listening to left at london right now!

12. Head. Oval. Done lol

13. Theres so many ppl out there that have cool stuff, but i wanna say one of my favorites is a fellow enby i met in y first few months on twt named Packtion, they make cool tunes. I like cool tunes but I’m not really one to make music.

14. Ive heard of the term motif before but im not super certain as to how to portray that to my art? If it basically means “theme,” then I would say fall. Love autumn weather!

15. On my bed, on random chairs around where i live, couches, outside (only when it’s warm out). Sometimes i draw physically at school or out in parks, but that’s not too common. I do also have a projects desk but that’s covered in fursuit stuff and also my 4 foot tall model of a Space Launch System rocket lol.

16. Drawing lmao

17. Sometimes water or cheap hot chocolate/ apple cider. Earlier tho i drank an unacceptable amount of cola while drawing meni in their winter coat colors lol

18. A lot. Mostly in middle school because i hated my art teacher or whatever. A lot of times it happens on accident or when my fidgeting gets destructive (esp w/ erasers)

19. Planes, rockets, that sort. Im an aerospace nerd, sorta kinda. Also i drew my ass kicking boots a couple weeks back and that was rlly cool too

20. There are some things im good at and other things im bad at. i haven’t drawn any real bangers imo in a very long time so i can’t say anything in particular, but my furry internet friends like my drawins and fursuiting stuff so i think that counts.

21. Kemono is pretty cool, some more crunchy and spooky art plus fall vibes and all that sort. Art is a big world! Theres a lot to like i think

22. Nope haha. I also sit like a shrimp oooygfn

23. Ye, for sure. Multiply, add, overlay, those are my favorites. Sometimes tho i sort thru the other ones to see if theres any that make particular image effects look good.

24. Not usually. Sometimes i make funnies using stock images tho, on April 1st a year or two ago i dressed my retired fursona (meaning I don’t draw them anymore) up in a business suit that i shamelessly copy pasted from a stock image of some guy.

25. One time i drew a rocket and i put a lens flare on the engine plume and it accidentally looked like a cross. When i posted it on twt i got like a bajilion likes and everyone was like HOLY SHIT MOGY DRAWED NEON GENSIS EVANGELION?? And i was like “what” because i hadn’t seen eva yet lol.

26. Same as the answer to 25 lol. Also one time i drew in red on a black background snd some ppl thought it was vent art hm

27. Usually i don’t warm up, no. i usually just start drawing hah, and it either works or it doesn’t. i’ve been told that i should try and do warmups before drawing but it’s hard to start..,

28. i’ve done some collaborative artwork b4, something similar to a simpsons couch gag. i also drew some stuff for my school’s logo contest but didn’t end up winning mwarp

29. Another thing i cant think of! Aaah! Im inspired by lots of things but ive been feeling very art-slumpy lately. Again, depression. Yayyyyyy

30. Uhm the really cool cat guy i drew the other week, deserves 1 morbillion likes i drew him for so hard so long. Lil guy yah, everything about him was fun to draw, top scars, fishnets, pants, ears, etc. love him :)
