Colors Gallery, meet Linkanoodlesoup
@Linkanoodlesoup is a big fan of Zeldagames, Splatoon, and Gorillaz! Did you know that they also draw with their finger!? Time to find out some more awesome details about them in this interview!
Linkanoodle soup? I've never had that. What or who is that?
"Linkanoodlesoup is me!! I had made up the name around 2 years ago, it's based off of one of my favorite characters, Link from the Legend of Zelda and also one of my favorite foods, noodle soup!"

You're a fan of Zelda, Splatoon and Gorillaz? You have good taste! What else are you in to? What inspires you?
"Yes I love Splatoon, Zelda and Gorillaz, they are my everything. I'm really into anything that has to do with music and art really. Listening and making music really calms me and gives me ideas for new drawings."
DEL !! by Linkanoodlesoup
How did you discover Colors? I'm assuming being a Zelda fan with a switch made our humble community not too difficult to find? How do you like the gallery? Is it your primary art tool? Any feature you want to see in the future?
"I found colors while just exploring the eshop, I thought it would be fun to use in my freetime so I downloaded it!"
"I honestly love the gallery and I would say it was my primary art tool for a while until I got a new computer. I mostly use other programs such as Firealpaca and Medibang but I do sometimes go back and work on colors."
"As for features, I would really like to see a color palette option. It would be much easier drawing characters over and over in new projects."
What's your favorite Zelda game?
"My favorite Zelda game might be either Twilight princess or Ocarina of time. I do love Tears of the Kingdom, it's a very fun game and a great addition to the series but I think I like sticking with the classics a bit more."

Who are your favorite idols from Splatoon? Also what weapon(s) do you main? Favorite modes?
"My favorite Idols from Splatoon might be Marina, Marie and Big man. I really just love the vibe of those 3 and they're so adorable."
"I main the splattershot jr! I rather stick with the basics, the other weapons don't work as well for me."
Happy splatfest!! by Linkanoodlesoup
Favorite Gorillaz song? Also tell us about them!(I've heard of them but haven't actually listened to them much as of yet)
"Ooooh I think My favorite Gorillaz song might be Dirty harry from their Demon Days album. Their music just brings me a lot of joy along with the characters in general. They have so much to their backstories and I really enjoy listening to their interviews because it brings a lot of personality to the characters in the band."
Your style is incredibly distinct! How did you develop it?
"For my style I would look at some of my favorite artists work and take inspiration from that. I also did a lot of experimenting back in 2022 which slowly lead to the style I have today."
The fact that you draw with your finger is amazing! Do you do it as a challenge or because you prefer it? How did you get started? Did it take a while to get used to it or did it come naturally?
"I much rather draw with my finger than a stylus or anything of the sort. in 2018 is when I started drawing digitally, mostly with animation and I was given styluses and pens for drawing but I never liked the feeling of them on the screen. Since I've been drawing with my finger for so long it's just feels more natural using it instead."
Colors art that you're the most proud of that you've made so far?
"I think my favorite painting might be the 'STEWIE' one. I'm really proud of the fisheye effect I was able to do."

Favorite artist on and off colors?
"My favorite artists on colors might be @Aiimorsx, @SoupiBuddi and @Silvy, and off of colors my most favorite might be Jamie Hewlett."
Any art advice you'd like to share? Especially in regards to finger painting?
"Please take your time with your art, don't give up! also use references!! As for finger artists, rest your hand!!!!!!!"
Idk what to name this- by Linkanoodlesoup
What are some goals and plans for the future that you have?
"I kinda wanna get into an animation company, I've been working with animation for years and I've recently gotten into 3D work so I'm very dedicated haha."
Anyone you want to shout-out?
"I'd like to shout out my best friends!!! They've really helped me during the art journey and it means a lot to me!"
