What's your store name? And are you currently selling any of your drawings?

Anonymous

I have a society 6 store but there’s nothing on it currently. I’d like to sell prints again in the future but right now it really just feels like more trouble than it’s worth.

I’m currently open for commissions though [x]

How do you think the male audience of Steven Universe feels? Like all the gems except Steven are female, and no one would do a gemsona(dunno if i spelled it correctly, its you as a gem) since they are men. It's not that I'm sad or feeling left out, but it's a shame this awesome show's public is more female orientated. Don't get me wrong it's awesome to finally have a cartoon for females, and any male who is not stupid and tries it will love SU. I just wanted to hear your opinion.

I almost hope this is just text post bait and not entirely serious. I’m just gonna parrot what the crew has said and say that if any boys feel like there aren’t enough male characters in su then they can go watch the Avengers.

How do I think the male audience feels? How do you think female audiences of 95% of all other media feel when the entire main cast is composed of male characters with maybe one decently written female character? It’s not “a shame” that su is more female oriented. It’s absolutely wonderful and i love it. I LOVE IT.

When it comes to gemsonas though, have fun and do what you want. They’re supposed to be you as a gem right? So why wouldn’t they identify as male if you identify as male? The crew has already said that gems are free to identify as they wish (it’s just that in canon Steven is the first to use male pronouns.) No one who would send you hate about it is in the right. (there’s honestly no reason to send hate ever) Also, it’s not true that no one would make a male gemsona, I have seen LOTS, you’re not being left out. 

Hi! I had a question for you about drawing programs. I'll be getting my tablet soon in the mail, but I'm not sure what program I should use with it. Do you know any good ones? What would you recommended?

I use Photoshop CS5 almost exclusively. In my experience it’s been the easiest to use and understand. I also love how brushes in PS work and how easy they are to adjust and customize. Photoshop is best for digital painting imo. (There’s also a ton of resources available online, like brushes and tutorials, for you to use which is nice)

If you’re into flat colors and nice linework Adobe illustrator is really good. It’s difficult to learn up front but you can create really nice vector work with it (at this point though i rarely use it) 

There’s also a lot of free mock adobe programs to choose from though. The only one I have experience with is GIMP. It’s not exactly the same as PS but it does a good job covering the basics and it’s safe. 

A lot of artists also use Paint Tool Sai and Manga Studio. I have no experience whatsoever with Manga Studio and I’ve messed around in Sai a little but it just never really clicked for me personally. But they’re worth checking out too. 

So there’s a lot of options out there. I hope I helped a little. I am definitely biased though, PS is my comfort zone so keep that in mind. I’m not an expert in all drawing programs.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Have fun with your new tablet! 

what's your pronouns and sexuality, if it's okay to ask? ^^

I don’t mind. She/her and I’m asexual.

So since you watch SU did you make yourself a gemsona? If not could you imagine what would she/he be?and their weapons?

Um..no I didn’t. I don’t really enjoy drawing things that involve…me. I’m really not that cool. But uh…idk opals and padparadscha sapphires are my favorite gemstones and maces are cool. tbh tho if I were a gem I’d probably be like Steven or Lapis and not have a weapon weapon. idk what I’d have instead though. 

do you ship pearlnet?

um yes? I guess? I think it’s cute and I don’t dislike it by any means, but it’s not my favorite either. I’m pretty neutral about it tbh

I am very tired rn so just picture me sleepily hugging all of you bc you are all so kind and lovely okay

and yeah, i don’t really care what my mom doesn’t like bc i’m just gonna keep enjoying the stuff i enjoy. It gets old sometimes hearing her opinions though…and then she wonders why i haven’t willingly shared my art with her since like…..middle school… :/

Hello! I'd like to ask if I could use one of your drawings as a sidebar. Of course you would be credited :)

Yes, I’m totally fine with that! :)

For anyone else who’s wondering, I’m okay with people using my art for phone/laptop wallpapers, icons online and tumblr themes w/ credit. (or other general, harmless stuff like that - if you don’t know you’re always welcome to ask)

 I don’t like reposts or people using my art as illustrations for their writing or their characters (unless it was commissioned specifically as such) and obviously anything that involves someone making a profit with my art is a no.
