I’ve always considered you one of my favorite artists, and think it’s really cool that you’re trying to improve your skills (even though I also think you’re being too hard on yourself!) Being an aspiring artist myself, I was wondering if maybe you’d like some references? I’m always stumbling across things like muscle tutorials or body studies on the various art sites I visit - though if you don’t want them I understand - not sure if that would mess with your style? Love you, love your art! :D

sure! ;w; that would be great, I would love any and all of that stuff hehe, thank you

when i first read this i pictured a little penis frowning at you… penis with a serious face haha

speaking of laughing while drawing dicks.. Chintsubu…. I would never be able to draw three (or more??) entire volumes of dicks being kawaii and talking together

such dedication

How do you draw a penis with a serious face? Honestly, I could never draw anything nudity without laughing or giggling the whole time. Even if I was only drawing breasts, I’d still laugh and laugh. How are you able to draw all this amazing sexual anotomy with a stoic expression?

hahah thank you and I guess it’s just practice/being used to it? XD I’ve always been pretty okay with drawing genitalia itself but the idea of showing it to other people was something I was very shy/nervous about at first and gradually got used to it through the years

but yeah, as the person who has been drawing dicks since I was 12, I haven’t had much shame/giggly nervousness/etc　 regarding these things?

Someone has reposted your art: kilehye.tumblr.com/post/14603585477 

(is this the right link? it’s to my own post heh) but I don’t mind! thanks for the thought but I don’t mind reposts at all

in fact it makes me happy to see that someone liked something I did enough to want to share it on their own blog ;w;

all my art is free to edit/color/use/repost/etc without my permission~ (and I don’t honestly care about attribution either lol I don’t mind if they don’t source/credit)

ok I’ve started up a sideblog to put my studies and gesture drawings and other referenced art that I do in hopes of improving uwu

I’m surprised you are so hard on yourself. You have some of the best art I see on tumblr! I always look forward to your stuff! I don’t really have much else to say but you’re great and if you think you can improve, you will do so!

deadkidsclub asked you: 05/22/2012 3:07am

I know what it’s like to feel really unsatisfied with your own art so I just wanted to say that I’ll be rooting for you. I hope you can find, if not happiness, then a sense of satisfaction and greater confidence in your art work. I believe in you. And I’m kind of embarrassed to say this directly but you’re one of my favorite artists (so I’m going to selfishly hope you’ll find what you’re looking for quickly because I’ll miss your posts while they’re gone!) Good luck!!!

nibs04 asked you: 05/24/2012 3:19am

I miss you and your beautiful art. :(

thank you everybody ;-;  <3 I’ll try to keep my self-deprecating whining at a minimum but I tend to get this way every so often when I’ve outgrown my mental perspective and look at some older art, and realize how flawed it is, and feel ashamed of myself for thinking it was good/acceptable at the time when I had drawn it

and then that feeling bleeds over to my current art and thinking that, even if it looks okay to me today, I’ll end up looking back on it later and find it disgustingly flawed

I try to live in the ‘now’ and not fret so much over “I’m going to hate this later so why bother” but sometimes I dwell on it anyway, even though I know that sort of thinking will get me absolutely nowhere

but yeah, I mean, I’ll get over myself eventually! I did a couple sketch studies the other day and that made me feel a little better so it’s only a matter of time and a little more practice until I’m out of my slump again

Anonymous asked you: 05/24/2012 9:28pm

UP was really difficult for you to watch, huh?

lmao I had flipped out a little about this question because I was like “where did I ever mention I had watched Up???” because I don’t like to dwell on the memory so I don’t mention it much and was wondering where/how you found out

but yes it was hard to watch and made me cry repeatedly which then made me all the more uncomfortable because it was my first or second date with a girl and I felt awkward and flustered about it considering other circumstances

deadkidsclub asked you: 05/26/2012 7:36pm

Have you considered instead of putting a time limit to study everyday just making it 2 pages of blank paper instead? Or maybe a monthly goal of x pages? I don’t always get around to it everyday but I find if I sit down at a desk with two blank sheets and pull up posemaniacs/model site I can usually fill those papers and not feel so stressed over trying to study while still studying. I tend to treat it as a warm up and a ritual prelude leading to actual drawing so it’s not as daunting.

I’ve tried to do something like that, but I tend to prefer doing more in-depth value/color studies these days rather than multiple gestures, so I end up preferring a time limit sort of thing since I will end up fretting over a single picture or two for hours on end if I don’t cut myself short XD

and then when I try to do studies on paper with pencil I feel like I’m wasting paper despite the fact that I have tons of sketchbooks and paper and never use it　 lol..

lildragonbabe asked you: 05/27/2012 3:22pm

I’ve always though you had fantastic art. But of course, if you want to improve, then yes, practice makes perfect! And maybe, for practicing, you could make a cute little side blog do post your practice pictures up? It’ll be a nice way to show yourself and everyone how hard you’ve been working, its an easy way to keep track of all the progress you’ve made, and you can still get feed back to help you improve even more on your weak points!

thank you ;w; and that is actually a nice idea~ I’ve thought about making a sideblog for improvement studies in the past, and abandon the LJ I’d been posting studies at, since that place kind of ended up 75% angry self-loathing and 25% actual art lol

so, I just decided, I’m not going to allow myself to post anything on any of my blogs until I get over myself and study anatomy/color more (except maybe my personal blog to post the studies)

I have been way too insecure about my art and have wanted to delete my art way too often these days

so adieu hopefully this will be a short hiatus but long enough for me to accomplish what I hope to accomplish with this

if anyone wants to talk I will be on skype/twitter/private messages on tumblr =w=b

see yaaa

“J-ohnnn…”

He pants beneath you, spine arching, those clawed hands dragging at your back. Your shirt is barely helping to shield your skin, and you can feel the scratches forming.

You can’t really be bothered to care, though.

Because one glance down shows you that he’s already hard and leaking, and his tail is winding desperately around your wrist. Stilling your fingers where they’re petting the soft down at the base of his neck, you spare a moment to give him what would be an exasperated look, if you weren’t grinning through it.

Not to be rude but you might wanna change your art tag to something else. I just really don’t want to see text posts under an art tag.

hmmh even though the implication of this ask bugged me (they’re not just miscellaneous text posts, they’re fics, still quality original content even if I didn’t create it) and I wrote up a post about “sorry, but no”.. I guess I could try to tag for my own specific art posts after I thought about it a bit more..

can’t promise that I won’t forget a lot though, especially in the beginning >.>; man it’s going to be annoying retroactively tagging everything..

honestly it’s bothered me for a while too that I don’t have an art tag for my own art so all the other stuff I reblog is lumped along with (even though it’s all quality too!! if not much moreso than my own art =w=) but I always figured, meh, it’s too late and I’ll never remember

but at least this is a request for a tag that I have considered in the past anyway so I might as well try　.. uwu
