Ask Anything!

I'm opening this because there are probably some of you who wants to ask something about me or my art. (And avoid conversations via PM, it gets flooded)

So, I'll leave this open just in case someone wants to know something about me. xD

Of course, If you ask something that is way too personal, I will just say I can't answer it.

Thanks!

PD: Try to ask specific things, if you ask something too general I might not cover correctly.

What are your recommendations for a sketch artist, such as myself?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
In sketches, what I do initialy is positioning "stick figures" with correct proportions. Even if it's a sketch, a stick figure as a base is always a good help, specially for begginers, since it helps to avoid some proportions issues that could happen if a base is not used. It's easier to draw proportions first as a stick figure rather than doing it directly.

Also, using different colored lines per character helps to locate them easier. Try to not use always black, since it can make the sketch confusing and messy.

Have you ever thought of showing us how you color, shade, etc.?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Yeah but seems is not posible. I think the only way I can show you correctly is via Stream. However I'm not good at those and I don't like it, since I usually don't draw lineally, this means I get constantly distracted by stuff, so the stream would be pausing a lot.

My favorite Pokemon is Mew. How I come into the furry community? Well I don't remember well, but I start first uploading in AGNPH.

What is the average rate of time you spend on artwork consisting of a male & female having sex?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Depends on the level of detail. In my detailed artwork usually takes me 1 hour or 2 per character, depending on the complexity
TheSuperProfessor
11 years ago
You appear to work fairly fast don't you?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
I think I'm just average. There are ocations where I delay a lot more. since I usually draw nude stuff, is easier than drawing clothes.
TheSuperProfessor
11 years ago
That sounds reasonable.

Why are you so god-like in ability?

On a more serious note, I'd just like to say that you are my favorite artist. Your work is amazingly beautiful, even when pornographic in nature - perhaps especially in such situations, a trait that is quite rare. If I had to name an inspiration when it comes to artwork, it'd be you, no questions asked.
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Aw, thanks a lot :)

I'm glad my artwork serves an inspiration purpose too!

So what is your favorite thing to draw and why?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Well, probably Pokemon or similar characters. I find them more interesting to draw due to the high variety of characters.
Adult themed too since... well... is more fun! XD

Me puedes dar un consejo para mejorar mi arte?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Ocuparia saber donde tienes problemas primero, puedes ser un poco mas especifico?
ZekLullaby
11 years ago
Supongo que mi mayor problema es la anatomia, mayormente de los brazos y manos. Tambien mis poses no suelen ser muy dinamicas. Hasta la fecha no he podido dibujar con exito una pareja en accion, solo pin-ups. Aunque supongo que me diras que practique mas.
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Bueno, acabo de hecharle un ojo a tu galeria, y la anatomia no esta nada mal. En si, practicar es la idea, pero tambien hay que saber como llevarlo a cabo. Si tienes problemas con las manos y los brazos, te recomendaria hacer varios dibujos que incluyan solo brazos y manos en diferentes posiciones, puedes usar tu mismo brazo como referencia para hacer las diferentes posiciones que quieras o puedes buscar fotos (igual con los animales). Una ves que hayas hecho varios, trata de volver a hacer alguna de esas mismas posiciones sin ver una referencia y podras compararlas y asi ver donde te equivocas mas, a veces no son las manos, si no los dedos, o los nudillos, etc. Esa es mi recomendacion por el momento, espero que te sirva.
ZekLullaby
11 years ago
Lo intentare, la verdad nunca he hecho una pagina solo de brazos y manos, nunca habia pensado que lo malo de las manos podia ser solo una parte, ahora mismo me pongo a ver que parte es la que falla mas.

Practicare y practicare todo lo que pueda, total estoy en vacaciones, y se que en un solo dia no voy a mejorar mucho, pero Tal vez despues, dentro de algun tiempo, pueda enseñarte algun avance. Oh y gracias por tu ayuda y por echarle un ojo a mi galeria, es un honor viniendo a alguien con tu nivel :3

Quetzalli

Soy de Jalisco. Y pues... no uso tutoriales, realmente nunca veo ningun tipo de tutorial pues la mayoria de los fundamentos los aprendi en la escuela. A que te refieres con suaves?
Nekori
11 years ago
mawww q buenisima onda lo de tu escuela x3 eso de los sketch suaves me e dado cuenta en muchos dibujos q sus trazos son suaves .. no se ven tan pixeleados y se ven muy lineales, quisiera aprenderlo para poder mejorar en ese tema del sketch
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Bueno, eso depende del programa que uses, generalmente los programas de dibujo tienen pinceles suavizados por default. Otra cosa seria configurar la Tableta de dibujo para que la presion de la pluma afecte tanto el grosor de la linea como la transparencia y suavidad.
Nekori

I've been following your art since I learned your Dark Mirage name on E621, and I've thoroughly enjoyed your art over the years.  Anyways, my question.

With pixel art, I find it hard to re-draw another styles of art in sprite/pixel art style.  I happen to be really good at anti-aliased art and pixel art, and I would like to know what you can recommend for tips on 'converting' normal art, be it drawn electronically or not, into good pixel art.
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Well, I'm not an expert in sprites or pixel art, I stopped doing them long ago, so maybe I can't give you any recommendations.
You mean, from a big drawing, converting it to pixel art/sprite? Well, maybe the only thing is trying to keep the most important features of the drawing, since everything is smaller and a few pixels long, trying to depict and giving priority(allowing a bit more size for detail) to main features might work the best. Sorry I can't give you better tips. Hope it helps.

1: Are you a dude or a chick? And please, be truthful about your real life self, not any persona. I just ask this because I see the weirdest phenomenon in the furry fandom. Females produce more F/F art, per capita, than males in the furry fandom!

2: Por que los furries asi popular en Mexico? Y si mi espanol bueno bastante por un vacacion alli? O necesito estudiar mas?
Quetzalli
11 years ago
I'm male, what you mean by truthful about my real life self anyway?
And yeah I see F/F is really popular among girls, I don't know why either XD

Mmmmm I really don't understood really way what you said in spanish >.<.
You mean if furry art is popular in mexico? Not really, at least I haven't seen a lot, and yeah, you probably need to study a bit more :P
sigmaweapon
11 years ago
I meant are you actually a man or woman, not what do you say you are online.

I thought I needed to study more. I tried to ask why furries are so popular in Mexico. I've actually seen a lot of Mexican furry artists... online that is.
Quetzalli
11 years ago
Ohhh really?, I really haven't seen many, not even online. As why could it be popular... I have no idea XD

Hello, i wish i can understand what nekori saying.... i heard some propram SAI. So, have you use Paint Tool Sai ?
Quetzalli
10 years, 11 months ago
Nope, I use Photoshop, even thought I think both are similar.
Kryztar
10 years, 11 months ago
That's so bad :( . i just want some about of SAI. so... how you can draw with out Line?? ( I'm practicing draw without Line )
Quetzalli
10 years, 11 months ago
Sorry, I don't know about SAI.
You want to draw without Lineart? Well, it's not something simple. You need first to know how to draw with Lineart. Once you are experienced enough,you can basically imagine it in your mind and just put the color instead. It's hard to explain, but if you are starting, I would recommend drawing with Lineart first.

Thanks for help, hm..... how i can draw white water XD
Quetzalli

White water? You mean cum?

Well, I suppose doing "splat" watery pictures could help you, practice with doing things like this Image

hello how are you hope you are well is to ask if you do commissions or requests is that I am interested in your drawings are very tender >w<
Quetzalli
10 years, 9 months ago
I take commissions over FurAffinity, search me under the name of DarkMirage. Currently there are no Slots left though. Once I open again maybe I open a journal here to inform. But the commission slot request is only over FA.
