pugparazzi-blog asked: Since I think you're working on one -- would you mind telling what is needed for a portfolio? Like what are colleges looking for? (:
Yep yep, I am! :)
And usually, specifications of what to include in a portfolio usually all depend on the college, as well as what major(s) you’re going for! For where I want to go specifically (Ringling) and what I want to apply for (mainly Illustration but also Computer Animation), hands, feet, human figures, animals, representational drawings, and interior/exterior environments are asked for.Pretty much examples from drawing in life.
And, I personally figured this was the case anyhow, but a woman that worked in the admissions office for Ringling that I had a few minutes to talk to after my campus tour mentioned to me that they often look for works made with traditional media, as it’s beneficial to learn about art/animation from its roots, where digital art wasn’t really an options yet. :)
Soo not just sketches, but any paintings, sculptures, or anything that qualifies under their ‘requirements’ for portfolio content will do!
Though, your portfolio should portray what you typically draw, what you like to draw, etc.! Alongside the main stuff, you can include other things you may happen to like to draw, like character designs, animations, examples of storyboards, even a few digital pieces. (Though digital work should be a very small portion of your portfolio as, again, traditional work is what they like to see in your portfolio.)
I’m speaking mainly from numerous tips given from others and Rngling itself, but it still varies from college to college! Best bet is to usually refer to the websites of those that you’re looking at! :)

Heya!
And gosh, biggest of happy birthdays to your sis! Hehe, apologies that this isn’t my best (wasn’t having the best of drawing days last night in my opinion), but I hope this is acceptable! <:D
Hope she’s been having a wonderful day! <3
To be honest, I’m gonna need some time to get used to Amethyst’s new outfit. I’m still favoring more toward her former one for whatever reason.
But it’s still a lovely look for her. <3

deltaflame asked: With FNAF 4 confirmed and MandoPony most likely inevitably making a song for it once it comes out, are you sticking to your promise of no more fnaf art for any reason or is MandoPony's (maybe) song going to be the one last exception? I'm not requesting for art of it necessarily, I'm just curious about your thoughts on it.
Hehe, I’m not sure if I’d count on Mando planning to make a song for the fourth game (and, of course, I definitely cannot speak for him on what songs he makes based off whatever franchise), but if he did and approached me once again for more art for it, I’d certainly do more for him. :)
(Heck, I technically contradicted my own statement on not posting anymore FNAF art when I drew the cover for his last FNAF song ‘Balloons’. Though, to be even more technical about it, I didn’t post it… :) )
I’ve answered this quite a few times already, but I’m almost positive I won’t be making a new FNAF song. That doesn’t mean you’ve seen the end of mine and Orlando Fox’s collaborations, though! ;)
Ooooh~ :D

I got a request recently asking for Toothless!
I still suck tons at drawing him, but I hope this attempt it’s feasible!
