captain-zel-deactivated20150113 asked: Do you ever get worried that people will dislike your art?
There will always be people out there that will dislike someone’s art! If there are people that don’t like my art for one reason or another, I haven’t really seen/met them yet. :)
Anonymous asked: Sorry for ask,but what are those things you draw at the finish of their mouth?
No apologies necessary, hehe!
Those would be the nuts/bolts part of a machine! I place them around that area of the mouth as that’s where an animatronic’s mouth seems to start its hinges in order to move!
Anonymous asked: My mom died not long ago... I don't need a request, really, i just need someone who cheer's me up... Can you say any words to me, please?
While I haven’t experienced that occurring to my mom, I do understand what it feels like to have one of your parents pass away.
I know it leaves a hallow feeling inside you after you let all your tears come out. And maybe even the memories (good and bad) that you’ve shared with them hurt you to remember at first, because you can’t make any new ones.
But please know, they’d want you to cheer up and keep going. It’s okay to mourn the loss of a loved one for a bit at first. It helps to get all those bad feelings out of you. And it’s great if you can keep going with a smile on your face and remembering the good times you had with them, because of them, and just from them.
This can be harder for more people to do, but I can assure you that in good time you’ll be able to think back to your mother and feel more happiness instead sadness. If you do feel any bit sad about it, it’ll show that you miss her, and I’m sure she’ll appreciate that. But… keep the memories close to you and try to live on as you feel you would if she were still here.
(At least, that’s what I’ve been doing for several years now. That’s actually been my extra push to keep drawing. I like to think my dad would be proud of me.)
My deepest condolences for your loss. I hope you’ll still try to continue your life with just as great of success as you would try for it your mom was still here. <3
Anonymous asked: Seeing that person kind of goad you into drawing something for them is heartbreaking. Especially since they used a flat out assumption of your disposition towards them. You work hard to make people happy and have to deal with school and possibly your future being a junior. People really appreciate you and your work but that doesn't entitle them to anything. My message kind of got convoluted in there but what I'm saying is don't let people pressure you because you have done more than enough.
Ah, I’ve seen this sort of thing occur to friends/other folks more than I’d like to admit. I do try my best to be fair in my responses, though. <:)
Trying to check/manage these messages I’m getting here is proving to be an extra thing I feel the need to do every day alongside other higher priorities, but I am glad that the majority of folks seem to understand my delays in things. <:)
Hehe, trust me, I’m pretty sure I saw what you were saying in there. For sure, will watch out for folks that may attempt that. (Though, I do feel like I don’t do just enough in anything related to my art, hehe. :) ) <3
Anonymous asked: Hi! I just wanted to let you know that you are not only my absolute favorite blog on Tumblr, but one of the sweetest human beings I have ever heard! You try so hard to respond to all your requests and commissions, and the way you talk to people is so lovely. I'm not very good with words, but I just wanted to let you know that you are a wonderful artist and a wonderful person.
Hey! Hehe, thanks a bunch! I try my best to be fun, yet formal/professional, even in the mists of things folks ask of me! <:)
I really appreciate this message! <3
Anonymous asked: Hiya! Hehe, your an amazing artist, and really sweet. Just a little question, but have you ever attempted Human Versions of the Animatronics?
Hiya! Thank you so much, I try my best!
And I have not, actually! Mainly for the reason that I’m trying to get more decent at drawing human characters, but also that I’ve never thought to attempt to draw any of them in that fashion.
Plus, may other folks have made such great renditions of them already, no one would need to see any from me!
iluvtoonlink asked: Are you scared/worried your art might get used or stolen?
I’m sure every artist has some part of them fear that. I’m certainly no exception. :)
Granted, I do make sure to put my signature somewhere on all my work (and particularly in spots where it may be relatively hard for just anyone to even try to remove it), but that worry is always there for an artist regardless!
Anonymous asked: What made you like Five Nights at Freddy's?
The art, definitely! It’s how I even found out about the game, hehe!
After seeing numerous pieces of these same characters suddenly pop up, I looked up the game, and instantly fell in love with it. <3
(This piece is the very first bit of exposure I had to the game! And may or may not be part of the reason why Chica is my favorite…
Hehe, Atryl is amaaazing. <3)
kirito-kun-the-black-swords-blog asked: Why Do I Always See FREDDY X BONNIE Everywhere Google+ Here ANYWHERE ELSE Just Do Something Different it's Annoying Pls Do Something About It Thanks~
Haha, my apologies for that! I do draw different things, of course! FreddyxBonnie stuff tends to more in reply for folks that request some things for it, rather than me initially drawing it. :)
But I’d say other folks are ones responsible for that sort of thing being shared on websites I didn’t submit them onto myself. Not too much I could do about that I’m afraid! <:)
(Though fair warning: I won’t entirely stop doing it. Some folks still seem to enjoy it, as I like to deliver, so it’s very likely to pop up with me in particular. :) )
victni asked: Hey Orlando, when are you getting winter break/ vacations? :D
