FAQs:
Q:Do you use a tablet for digital art?

A: yes, I have a Huion kamvas 16(2021). I wouldn't recommend using a mouse for sculpting/ painting, it's really slow and kinda bad for your hands. A cheap pad tablet is pretty good to start with though, you don't need a fancy screen tablet.

Q: will you make a tutorial?
A: maybe, at some point. I'm still learning myself, and there are loads of people way more qualified to teach stuff.

Q: How do you join 2 objects together in blender and smooth the transition?
A: Joint the objects with ctrl+j, then remesh in sculpt mode using shift+r to set your mesh resolution and ctrl+r to apply

I find it funny how you use Blender for your paintings. It makes your method unique.

Amazing art! I found your videos through my recommendations and I wanted to say that your artstyle looks so 3 dimensional and the way you use colors and shading makes it look realistic. I'm glad you post your speedpaints, you're a great artist! :D

Really nice drawing! Hopefully I'll be able to pick up some techniques from these types of videos. Also something else I couldn't help but notice is the fact that the reference character was drawn as if he was standing on his toes like a plantigrade creature. I know the whole theme is around a digitigrade anatomy for the legs but from an anatomical view this would be so incredibly stressful for the character because it's the equivalent of trying to stand straight on our toes for us. It puts a lot of strain on both the ankles and the foot and it's also a lot less stable. It's a recurring design with a lot of anthropomorphic characters I've noticed. Is that just cartoon logic or is it something else? Because I'm really curious...
