projects but more likely due 2 hyperfix ended or tired 2 code or

listen smth or especially watch while making art. it'll eat my focus
outtt

off and we just cant draw bc it's no music
- 28.) Are your sketchbooks messy or aesthetically pleasing?

even overlapping if diff pen colors, the chaos itself

still a tier

style. aside bad anycons who claim ai work as theirs, we adore it. check
these gens of mine.
tho
not rlly using it in art process bc pc is not phone and sd is
standalone. we think of takin the assistance of some cooler ai 4 c:hitw
refs/ideas/sums or maybe even intentionally generate smth there 2
portrait win11 copilot stuff or 4 surreality or 4 a broken code
- 59.) How do feel about tracing? What about tracing 3d models to
streamline art process?
- if u know what u do. or do 3d by ur own or adapt mannequins 2 ur
style. or if u only learn, it's a very good base! when u grow up, u'll
no longer need tracing of a part

this! but mostly we try to not procrastinate it eats us up
- 67.) Does you work have a story behind them or do you just make
things that you think look neat?

vibe-test (tho it's still in the project's story context)
- 68.) Do you think art should have a purpose?

- 69.) Favorite aesthetic?

mix it up and get grand existensial wonder of an unknown, unite
- 70.) Do you have a muse or a theme you fall back to?
- guess
- 71.) If you could eat you art, what would it taste like?
- leaves and wires and rainwater. fresh, bitter, is it a sorrow or
the blessings of your bigger self, part of eternal mycelium? smells
like ozone. the great wind in the field
- 72.) If your work suddenly became sentient, would it adore or
hate you?
- heeeyyyyy we know at least one character that'd endlessly love 2
vanish the creators out but we'd also love 2 help them xd
depends, our world is rich
- 73.) Based on previous question, can you win in a fist fight
against it?
- what--- peace pls peace plsss'''''' that one's gonna kill us pls
someone else do not let them do that (we know atl one who'd love us to
be present)
- 74.) Is your art style consistent? Do you prefer making a wide
variety of art?
- actually we r able 2 change it 2 anything else but. our current
is the most optimal
- 75.) Do you revisit old concepts or sketches? Do you touch em up
or leave them as is?
- depends, mostly we do not but can also bring them a second life
- 76.) Do you believe in talent or is it all skill?
- it is view opinions and expressions and let's say, brains r
irregular prisms and r never the same, aaand think of neurodivergent,
they see smth differently and make different outcome and some may
struggle or have advantages somewhere. but it is not rlly a talent
- 77.) What's your favorite thing to draw / make? Do you prefer
making living things or still life?
- guess. the vibes/ tho wd love 2 backgrounds and landscapes ok
we'll
teach ourselves by observing, summarizing, analyzing and repeating
- 78.) Do you create your art with a specific audience in mind? Who?
- we simply do
- 79.) How do you feel about people taking inspiration from work?
Do you think art style theft is real?
- abs fine! we should share xps and what art style theft it is like
stealing music style if u do general stuff who steals pop music but
whats abt outstanding styles it's like inspo or tracing or anything,
they'll learn making similar stuff if they adore ur style - it simply
resonates, don't be so egoistic plss
- 80.) Do you participate in art conventions? Do you sell your work
or support everyone else?
- i'd loveeeee 2 do but we have no idea if anything like exists
here.
we enjoy the idea. we do not need money we'll find whatcha do w them
maybe share
- 81.) Are you art materials expensive? Do you hoard any tools?
- how 2 null art exp 1) digital 2) even tho we never paid 3) ok
actually devices dont fall from the sky but. get a used but working
phone, have it rooted and grab ur drawing apps. whats abt trad, random
pencils bc multicolored random ballpoint pens colored
- 82.) Do you organize you supplies and tools systematically?
- no need
- 83.) Do you clean up after a project? Or do you just leave
everything lying around till you need the space?
- sadly the space is soon to be used by someone else so we have 2.
or cats will signify their presence
- 84.) Do you have a ritual before you start creating? Do you have
a drink or some snacks?
- wow interesting 2 imagine someone having nah we start eventually
- 85.) How do feel about censorship in art? Where do you draw the
line for inappropriate art?
- kinda dunno if abt bright colors or specific stuff like spiders
we feel like tag-as-spoiler is quite too much but if u rlly know a big
number of others need it then do please. otherwise we dont rlly feel
like hiding 4 minor reasons. the same is 4 artistic nudity and other
purely aesthetical, quite unusual to catch triggers on
if abt heavy unpleasant like gore/body horror/destructive, spare the
mothers suddenly lookin into monitors (but if u have one, better 2
hide) depends on the amount of it among other art. hide one by one or
mark the entire place as nsfl. nearly the same is 4 nsfw
'inapprop art' is the one clearily delivering the thought/intention of
unsafe. like wishing someone to die. it's bad anycons, bad deeds, also
their vision is cursed if they mistake ur thing for calling 4 unsafe it
is their problems. should deal w/anycons
- 86.) Do you censor your own art? Do you feel like you leave out
details for it be socially accepted?
- we simply do not draw anything that really should be. you've been
warned abt body horror in c:hitw u may see it contextually why should
we censor it, killing the vibes
- 87.) Do you feel intimated with starting a new projects?
- they just happen w/ a hyperfix and- which projects
- 88.) Are you scared of your art regressing? Do you think it's
even possible to get worst at art?
- if the brain dies then it'll be a quite interesting outcome. we
do
not afraid but we r interested in altered states. not to stab the brain
of this vessel, we may have no attempts
- 89.) Do you frequently make compromises for your work? Does your
art come out the way you envision them?
- it just happens and if, depending on how much was done and if we
still can change details sometimes we even dunno what we want so.
- 90.) How well do you manage your mistakes? Do you stress about
them?
- depends
- 91.) Do you make lists of things you'd like to make? Do you
actual commit to them?
- sometimes. usually we forget abt lists
- 92.) What is your ultimate goal of your work? Like, is to tell a
story, connect with others, or just to enjoy the process?
- even the whole c:hitw thing falls back to this. just to share
things, the light came out thru this prism
- 93.) What's something you've recently worked on that you're
really proud of?
- excluding coding and 3d? this maybe bc even that 4,5hr art turned out
slightly differently
- 94.) Do you have any dream projects? Have you started on them?
- guess
- 95.) Would you prefer unlimited money or unlimited time to make
your projects?
- hey we'd take money and build a safe space with a real lot of
time but. if clear 'or' then time also bc if u have it = ur safe
- 96.) Why do you create art?
- just bc?
- 97.) Are you happy with what you create?
- pretty if smth in particular, great if at all. if we cannot then
no point
- 98.) Do you think everyone should make art?
- pls do any kind, if u feel u can express urself or like that,
just start, no matter abt skills and ways
- 99.) What's advice you'd give to newer artist?
- think of ur own, pro doesnt mean wise, be happy and avoid pushing
urself to/against smth. live ur lifes
- 100.) When did you finish this? How'd you feel?
- (actually took a lil break, 20:27) we wanted 2 code piano sim we
thought this one will go quickly but quite dying it's fine we r happy
of finishing this draw c:hitw
