@-zyik-

1) I just wanna start w HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS !! My name is Crispy i'm Mexican and part Filipino! I love drawing my ocs and I got a pretty inconsistent artstyle ^_^

2) I grew up with watching lots of cartoons and started watching anime in 4th grade. I think my inspo used to come from the Dork Diaries books lol and slowly started shifting into a more anime-ish style or Omori-like artstyles. My current inspo comes from multiple artists on here and from other platforms!

3) I came across Colors around late 2022. I got it as a Christmas present from my Tia! I didnt use it as much since i was so used to traditional art but after some practice and discovering the community, I began to use it more

4) So I noticed when it comes to digital, the sketch used to be my lineart.. and then I started doing lineart and recently I'm back to "the sketch is my line art" again:sob: I LOVE to render hair! I do 2 renderings but the 1st one is in the flat layers for sum reason ToT

cont. to question 4:
Whenever I get ideas, its so random sometimes it just appears in my head and Im like I HAVE to draw this and the same for animatics too

5) Hmm.. I would like textured erases like soft or bristle to match the other ones bc it sometimes looks off especially w the soft brush. A TEXT TOOL!! I rly like to make lyric drawings n sometimes its hard to think of font ideas so that would be rly helpful :) An ANIMATION feature would be so nice too I have too many animatic ideas lol

6) Theres so many good artworks everywhere ToT I rly like the art from @/Sammyjam and @/Parako on youtube. Their rendering skills are SO GOOD 100% PEAK! They motivate me to improve my rendering skills i hope I can be as good as them one day.. Yemsao has a very pretty artstyle too ^_^ they have a webtoon called Cherry Crush SO GOOD I RECOMMEND. @Cupcake4me's artwork is so good too the way she renders is just so good she has so many good art pieces on here:sob:

7) This might sound exactly like the last question but my favorites on Colors is @Cupcake4me @pear-60 and @Meganekko_ (ik all the crazy stuff that happened w her but her ocs are so cute n she was one of my biggest inspirations on here)
YouTube: @/Sammyjam, @/Parako, @/TiredKriss @/satanmanse, and @/afraidparade
EVERYONE I LISTED ON HERE ART IS SO GOOD THEIR RENDERING, ARTSTYLE, CREATIVITY IS AMAZING I LOVE THEM♥ /p
satanmanse and afraidparade have REALLY good animations too!

8)
I noticed I favor my art from may and june:sob: I kinda miss that artstyle even tho the rendering wasnt that good

(I tagged u in the artworks ^^)

10)
Ok Im not that good at advice and tips but..
If you every feel intimidated from other artists and believe your art isnt good enough, remember: Practice makes perfect! You will continue to grow as an artist and ur skills will increase so dont give up! Everyone has their own unique artstyle including you. Remember taking some breaks is good too!

11) Mostly of my 2026 goals have to do with art ToT I rly want to get better at rendering and ESPECIALLY backgrounds. Also want to make a chunky sketchbook without losing motivation fast:sob:

12) Outside of art, I like to cook and sew. I recently got into sewing so thats smth I wanna improve at. I like to bake cookies and I LOVE making grilled cheese n I learned how to make pork buns too so I love those. I would like to learn how to make a strawberry pavlova and more complex meals and desserts

13)
I NEED to get better at anatomy and perspective badly:sob: Im getting bored of plain poses snd i wanna try more challenges. I also suck at rendereing clothes so thats another thing.
14) Art block happens to me about every 2-3 weeks. To get my creativity back, I like to listen to music for lyric drawing ideas snd watch those art tik tok compilations on yt for inspiration (especialy for traditional art)

15)
For other art programs, procreate is my GOAT I sometimex wish i could just copy and paste a drawing on there to colors live instead of tracing:sob: I started procreate when I younger and I didn't know how to work it so i made a drawing on each layer instead of multiple canvases:skull: I use CL more bc Im more used to it and also my apple pencil broke so :/ I already lost my SonarPen before i even made my acc so theres no difference lol but i still prefer cl :p

16)
Shout out to
