For all my old friends who haven't re-added me to MSN, please do: decayedcorpse810@hotmail.com

I won't be online for a couple of days because I have three upcoming final year exams and a couple more in October.

The three are on Monday (Chinese), Tuesday (Chinese + Social Studies) and Wednesday (English).

I'm going to an IT show on Thursday and Friday, probably all day, but will be back at night, maybe will even come online.

But on the week after that, I should come online nearly daily.

◆Your name?
Justin (jcys810)


◆If possible, your age?
15, going on 16 on the 8th October 2009


◆When did you start drawing?
Can't remember. But I really got into drawing in Primary school, though it was really really atrocious.

◆Which hand do you use for drawing?
Left-handed for penmanship stuff but right-handed for everything else!


◆Which is easier to draw - male or female?
Male! Female eyes and anatomy just kills me. If not I would probably have a couple of female OCs now.


◆Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?
Short. Too long and I have to sort of manage my flowiness into the art.


◆Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?
Both are hard. A 3/4 view is better.


◆Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
Front view is easier. 3/4 is better. >:E


◆What problems do you have in drawing?
Backgrounds, human anatomy, animals, anthros


◆What do you like to draw?
Create new OCs. I'm mostly a conceptual artist.


◆Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?
Both. But I prefer drawing traditionally. I never upload any traditional drawings because my scanner is in the living room and I don't like to show my work to others (my brother and mother always hang out there).


◆Where do you start drawing from?
First I draw a basic frame, then I buff up the frame, and then I start adding sketchy details, then I finalize the details, add base colours, shade, add highlights, do touch-ups.


◆What is your drawing habit that you are aware of?
Whenever I'm unhappy with my art, I sort of hit the pencil/stylus against my chin with a rather odd expression while trying to think up of something to improve the art.


◆Any tips for coloring/shading?
Blend the colours together!


◆How long does it take to finish a piece of art?
Basic frame: 1 - 5 minutes
Sketchy Details: 5 - 15 minutes
Finalize Details: 15 - 60 minutes
Base Colour: 10 - 20 minutes
Shading: 30 - 120 minutes
Highlights: 5 - 20 minutes
Touch-ups: 1 - 30 minutes


◆What music do you listen to while you draw?
Whatever is going on in the background. Usually cars passing by or noisy kids in the swimming pool.


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


◆Your favorite drawing utensils?
Mechanical pencil (0.5), wooden pencils (HB, 2B)


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

◆Your favorite style(s)?
Shounen, seinen


◆What kind of artist are you aiming for?
I've entertained the thoughts of being a comic artist, but it seems like a really tedious job from what I read in Bakuman. And I'm more of a conceptual artist than anything...

So yeah, conceptual artist.


◆Thank you.
