:star:Manga/Anime Spotlight: Blizz-Mii:star:



Manga/Anime Spotlight is a weekly feature that highlights the different artists across the deviantART's Manga/Anime community, and is a portal to get to know a bit more about them and their works.

This week's feature is Blizz-Mii



:bulletgreen:1.) To start off, what is your favorite medium and tools to use?

Wacom Bamboo Pen tablet and SAI. I do touch-ups in openCanvas and Photoshop occasionally.


:bulletgreen:2.) When you draw, do you plan everything out first, or do you just see where the drawing takes you?


I usually get an image in my head or a concept I want to convey because of some source of inspiration, and only then do I actually set out to draw. (too busy to doodle... ^^; )


:bulletgreen:3.) On average, how long do you spend on a drawing?

2-4 hours, but my larger pieces with more detail might be 6-8 hours.


:bulletgreen:4.) When did you first start drawing, and what made you start to draw in the manga/anime style?

When I was 14, I guess? I was writing an original novel (that spanned 30 chapters before I quit) and wanted to draw the cover for it, so I started trying to improve my art in anime style since that was what I was familiar with. ^^;

As for the manga/anime style, I was born in Japan and was very much influenced by Sailor Moon since... basically birth since the series started when I was 2 or so. xD


:bulletgreen:5.) What are your inspirations for drawing?

Usually I just want to express a specific emotion or feeling, often triggered by personal life events, music, or other media. Sometimes I see really pretty art by amazing artists and it makes me want to draw like them. .


:bulletgreen:6.) Do you have any artists that you look up to?

Hmm, no one off the top of my head, but I look up to anyone who has a good sense of composition and stylistic characteristics (e.g. sense of where to place softness/contrast, folds, etc.). Oh, and anyone who does amazing backgrounds. :D


:bulletgreen:7.) Out of the works in your gallery, what are your five favorite pieces?

Er, let's see...

- summer dream - by Blizz-Mii - our world - by Blizz-Mii VOCALOID - Haruka Tooku-- by Blizz-Mii - devs apollo reortvs - by Blizz-Mii Mukaeni kimashita. by Blizz-Mii

^^; To be honest, I'm getting quite sick of my art... I'm starting to see so many flaws, and there's just no more oomph in them anymore... orz Need to draw better pieces!


:bulletgreen:8.) Do you have any tips for young aspiring artists?

Do it because you love it, and because you want to do it. :)

Also, looking at tutorials by actual professionals is incredibly inspiring. I started off with Yura Izumi's tutorial on the PGN user's community (which I sadly can't find anymore orz). But all in all, shoot for the moon! Even if you fail, at least you'll land among the stars, right? ^^


:bulletgreen:9.) Are there any other types of art that enjoy?

Expressive landscapes, conceptually intriguing art, and more recently photography. I've also started doing dance recently, if that counts at all. xD


:bulletgreen:10.) Is there anything else that you would like to add?

You can do it! Believe it, and it will come true (self-fulfilling prophecy)! :D
