I know I just reblogged something with these tags, but 1000% wanted to also just tell you: I love the way you light Essek’s clothes. Making them look color-shifting and very magical. It’s fantastic and good every time.
thank you so much! i do enjoy giving hot boi clothes made of iridescent and duochrome fabrics, i think it makes him look very dapper and fancy even when otherwise the garments are relatively plain 🤭
Hi! Just wanted to say that I love your art, especially the way you draw faces and gestures, and the way you do lighting! It makes the characters look so real and alive while still being stylized :)
thank you!! finding a good balance between realism and a more stylized art style is one of my continual art goals, i’m glad to hear it looks good now 🥰
So I have to confess—I was saying your name right in my head for so long, following the pronunciation guide, and then one day out of nowhere, a notification popped up and my brain went “ZEEMEEZ!!!” and I haven’t been able to think it right since. I’m trying, I promise, but the brainworm is strong with this one.
listen i know it’s a mouthful to pronounce, my friends call me zem irl anyway 😂 i really appreciate you making sure you pronounce it right though, that’s really nice of you 🫶
Hey! I'd love to commission you someday, do you have any place you typically use to notify when your commissions are open? Otherwise, when do you next plan to open them? Thank you!
hi hi! i usually post an announcement here on tumblr with a link to a google form (which i use to collect emails & briefs so i can contact everyone who’s left a commission request later). i close it after i’ve received a certain number of requests.
as to when i’m planning to open commissions next: depends on my workload! i’ve recently taken a new batch though, so the next one might or might not happen at the beginning of next year. though if some folks from this current batch don’t get back to me, i might open commissions sooner!
thank you for your interest in my art 🫶
Hi! I love your work, ty for sharing it with everyone. Are your commissions open rn?
hi, thank you! my commissions are closed at the moment, but i am planning to open another batch some time at the beginning of next year.
Hi! I just wanted to say that your inuokko art permanently altered my brain chemistry. I'm currently writing a fic and it doesn't have anything to do with your art persay, but I do describe the two of them and your art is the inspiration for their appearances. Would you be comfortable with me crediting you with their descriptions??? Thank you for blessing us with Yuuta's aqualine nose 🙏
hi hi!
it’s so wonderful to hear that my inuokko art still brings people joy! 😭 i’m perfectly fine with you mentioning my art as inspiration for the way you describe those little guys. and i’m glad you enjoy Yuuta’s nose in my art, my style back then was quite cartoon-y and much less realistic than it is now, but i have never been able to resist a longer nose 😂 thank you, good luck with your fanfic!
