Frequently Asked Questions






Q: Can you please tell me more about you? c:
A: I am very social, pretty random, I reeeeaally ruin jokes when I actually try to make fun so in the end I am the only one who laughs... I am very very very exitable, I try hard to keep a low profile but I am not very good at it. I can be forgetful, I am grining ALL the time, I act very stupidly, I am a tomboy, I LOVE VIDEOGAAAAMES yess I do. Another thing I am addicted is CHOCOLATE and Nutella... little cute ducks are adorable. And bubo bubo's :heart:.. Watermelons are also amazing. And MUSHROOMS. Rainbow mushrooms that glow in the dark. And float. Yep.

Q: What do you use to draw?
A: I use mostly Photoshop CS3 & CS4 and a Bamboo Wacom Tablet A5. Sometimes, (depending in what I am going to draw) I use OpenCanvas 3.5, Paintool SAI and MS Paint.

Q: What do you use to animate?
A: Mostly Paintool SAI and Photoshop to draw the frames, then WMV (Windows Movie Maker) to speed them up and finally Sony Vegas Pro 8 to add effects etc. (My operating system is Windows 7)

Q: What do you use to record your videos?
A: I use HyperCam 2. Then I speed up the video in WMV and I add music and some final details in Sony Vegas 7.

Q: Will you draw for me a gift/ my character/ my fursona etc? (Do you Take requests?)
A: I am sorry but no. I have no time for requests PLUS I am a student so-- homework happens.

Q: Please, enter  to my contest?
A: Well, just drop a note or a comment on my profile c: If I am interested and I have time, I may participate.

Q: Will you do an aartTrade/ Collab with me?
A: I barely have time for Art Trades and collabs. However, it is fun sometimes to do some c: Don't ask me for Art Trades because most of time they're closed. Just keep an eye in my journal. You never know ^^

Q: Can I draw your characters?
A: Sure! Fan Arts are allways appreciated c: Just link back with your drawing but DO NOT claim my characters as your own. Moreover, do not use my characters to RP.

Q: How long have you been Drawing?
A: Well, this is kinda a difficult question for me haha. I use to mumble a lot about this but I'll try to be quick. I started to draw when the pencil met the paper. When I joined dA, I was mostly into improving my style in Cartoons, my Shading techniques there and backgrounds and asdfgdfsdfsgf. As for VERY serious art... hm.. I started serious practice Early April 2013 yep.

Q: I realy like your video/ this drawing of yours/ your animation, can I use it as inspiration for my own?
A: I usually take this as a copliment c: It makes me happy to see people being inspired by me~ However, don't use "I was inspired" as an excuse. What do I mean by that? Getting inspired is fine, but "copying" what you see is not inspiration ;)

Q: Can I use your artwork?
A: No, you're not allowed to use any of my drawings/ speedpaints/ animations etc for any purpose. You're not allowed to upload any of my artwork in other sites, trace it, re-draw it etc. without permission. Only commissions can be used by the commissioners in any way they want c:

Q: Your style is amazing! I really love how you shade - Highlight/ colour/ draw backgrouds. Can you teach me?
A: Nature can teach you better than any art teacher you'll see. I am not a professional and my art still has many mistakes that I ask from people to point out, so I can learn from them (: It would be better to ask me for a critique on a picture though! I'll try my best there c: but don't ask me to teach you anything, I simply can't ;A;

Q: Will you make a tutorial for suchandsuch?
A: I might make some tutorials in the future, and tutorial suggestions are good, but remember that they won't be "completely" tutorials. I'll make some "Step by Step" stuff because it is mostly the way I view things (:

Q: Do you have a FurAffinity account?
A: Yes, I do. My username there is also Konveekou, but I use this account ONLY for commissions.

Q: How can I become a better artist/ how can I draw better/ how can I improve/ how can I reach your skills?
A: Actually, all these questions have the same answer. PRACTICE. Because Practice is the key to succsess. You really want to become better? Then reference from real life. Referencing is the best way to improve your anatomy skills. DON'T COPY FROM OTHER ARTISTS because then, you may also copy their mistakes. Referencing from real life is also a way to discover your own style. This will help a LOT in your future drawings. Moreover, NEVER STOP STUDING. By studing anatomy you'll be able in the future to draw correctly your own poses. DON'T BE AFRAID TO EXPERIMENT! Trying all the time new tecniques, combinating different tecniques etc will help you to make your style even more unique and beautiful. Experimenting is a wonderful way for more inspiration~ and last but not least, Don't be afraid to express your self. Draw anything you want! Be Creative and let your Imagination Grow with Art! Final note-- always try to draw things outside your comfort zone. It is a fun challenge~ Ask for critique! Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Learn from them.

Q: Why aren't you so Active?
A: You know.. internet for me is like a second life c: But ..I can't always be online. Moreover, it is more fun to feel the sun than the light of the computer screen burning your eyes hahaha! Plus, I am a student so.. school yep.
