ART F.A.Q.
[ Frequently Asked Questions ]
Do you have a question related to my art? You can most likely find the answer on this page!
Q:
What program do you use?
A: Clip Studio Paint, primarily. Until late 2021, I used FireAlpaca and Autodesk Sketchbook as my main programs. I tend to use MS Paint for small, rough doodles.
Q:
What brushes do you use?
A: Here are the brushes I use most often for my art:
gouache brush set (I use the "mixed color tube" brush for lineart),
woody pencil / marker,
rough pen set,
HIMOG Zara Strength pen (another brush I frequently use for lineart), and
simple retro halftone set.
Q:
What tablet do you use?
A: I used to not use one at all! Up until mid 2020, all of my digital art was done with a mouse. Currently, however, I use an 11 inch GAOMON drawing tablet with a screen display.
Q:
What's your drawing process like?
A: I like to cut to the chase with my art and not spend a lot of time revising, so basically just sketch > lineart > colors > done, with hours of time subtracted like I'm doing a speedrun. I am a naturally fast artist, and, if I had the motivation to, I could pump out multiple illustrations a day. My ADHD and perfectionism tends to be what will often slow down my drawing process.
Q:
Do you take commissions?
A:
Yes,
I do.
Q:
Do you take requests?
A: Only close friends can ask for requests, sorry.
Q:
Do you do art trades?
A: I'll do art trades with anyone I'm mutuals with on social media.
Q:
Do you sell any merch, like keychains, pins, stickers, or prints?
A: Not at the moment, but I am considering opening up a print shop through INPRNT. If enough people are interested in it, I'll see what I could do about opening up an online storefront I could sell actual merch from, like keychains or pins.
Q:
When will you draw (x thing) again?
A: At the risk of sounding rude or snippy: when I feel like it. My interests change all the time, and if you want to see me draw a certain thing again, it really is just a matter of waiting things out until I come back to that interest again. If you would be interested, you could also commission me to draw the content you wish to see from me.
Q:
Do you draw NSFW?
A: No, or at least, I do not publicly draw it. And even then, I rarely draw it in private. It's not that I have a squeaky clean family friendly image that I want to maintain (my sailor's mouth destroyed that YEARS ago!), but simply that I just don't enjoy creating NSFW works and I found that out very early on after I became an adult. What's more my speed is drawing stupid comics where the punchline is a dick joke. The most NSFW art you'll tend to get from me is dirty jokes like that, or drawings of characters making out or dressed up in lingerie.
Q:
Do you take constructive criticism on your art?
A: Most certainly. Though I've taken years to refine my style and technique, some advice is appreciated every now and then as there is always room for improvement.
Q:
Do you ever do traditional art?
A: Rarely. You can find some traditional art I've done on the complete and utter ghost zone that is
my instagram, but I hardly ever actually do full traditional pieces.
Q:
Can I translate one of your comics into another language?
A: Yes, please! Just be sure to credit me if you upload the translation anywhere!
Q:
Can I dub one of your comics?
A: Absolutely! It's always an honor when someone wants to voice my comics, just please credit me like always, and also send me the final video when you've uploaded it!
Q:
Can I draw fanart of one of your characters / AU designs?
A: Of course! I'll never object to fanart as long as it's SFW. (We would have to be REALLY close for me to approve of any NSFW of my designs.)
Q:
Are you okay with people using your art as icons or headers on social media sites?
A: As long as they credit me somewhere on their profile, yes! That's perfectly fine.
Q:
What are your feelings on people reposting your art to other websites?
A: If I'm credited directly on their post, then I don't really mind it. I like to be told when my art's reposted, however. Always let me know!
Q:
How long have you been practicing digital art?
A: I've been doing digital art regularly since I was 9 years old, so as of writing this, about 14 years. I'm mostly self-taught.
Q:
Where else can I find you on the internet?
A: I use the same handle pretty much everywhere with only slight variations from website to website. For art centric websites specifically, I'm @magnetic_dogz on Toyhouse and Sheezy.Art, and @MAGNETIC_DOGZ on Art Fight. I also have Newgrounds, Inkblot, Furaffinity, DeviantART and Instagram accounts, but they're all literal ghost zones. As in, "I have not uploaded to them in years" ghost zones (seriously, why do I keep linking my Instagram everywhere when I don't even use it?)
If you want to know where to NOT find me, I will never EVER make accounts on Facebook or Amino and I am set on that decision. If you see accounts from "me" on those platforms, then that is not me, and most likely someone impersonating me and reposting my works. I have a TikTok account, but I haven't used it since 2020, so if you see an active TikTok account from "me", that's an impersonator, too.
Q:
Are you a furry?
A: WHAT'S IT TO YA (yes i am)
