What's happening with Rilzit and brb suicide?
A wild explanation appeared.
Are you the artist behind askzimisdead?
Maybe.
What's happening with Less Than Three?
Good question. Well... long of the short: the game Trickster Online, the game the comic was based on, the North American version closed down.
That game held a lot of sentimentality for me and my friends. It was the first real mmo I played that hooked me into gaming on the pc.
With the game gone my get go has kind of get up and done. The comic is pretty dear to me and I don't really want to give it up, but updates will be pretty rare and far between.
Can I use your art? ( in a music video? as an icon? as a background? )
When you borrow something, a pencil, a t-shirt, you always ask first. The same goes for art.
You take something without asking that's called stealing. You take my art without asking, you're going to get it reported and removed.
Art takes a lot of time and effort. Especially a finished piece. Let me break out the car metaphor so you can get a better idea on what I'm saying.
That said- I'm pretty laid back. If you ask to use an artwork, I'll generally say yes if you credit me and link to my gallery / the artwork used.
Can I use your art as reference? Or trace it?
No. Tracing is an absolute no. Heavily referencing it to the point it might as well be a trace is a no.
If my art inspires you- great! Awesome! And by inspiration I mean- you see my art and want to create an entirely new piece of artwork all of your own. That's dandy.
Can you help me with art?
The ultimate loaded question! The best I can do is offer some advice.
- There is no easy button - sorry guys
- Draw for yourself and draw what you love - the best and ultimate advice!
- Draw every day - even if it is a warm up sketch. Like any skill, you need practice
- Life drawing ( classes ) - look into it. Very helpful for anatomy
- References - you can draw a bicycle far better when looking at a picture of one than you ever could from memory. Credit if you have heavily referenced a pose.
Try different things, different styles, different programs, different mediums- until you find your niche. Don't try to be a carbon copy of another artist- we have those, they're called photocopy machines. You never know what kind of style you'll find!
ie: That inky kind of style of mine- I found that just from playing around with the ink pen in Sai. I realized I loved the feel of it. I realized I loved the extremes between light and shadow.
Never stop exploring, evolving and doing what you love!
I've also tried to collect some helpful resources, though I haven't updated it in a year
Who the heck is cat?
Cat is Kitteh ( omgwtfkitteh on DA and tumblr ). Cat is Kitteh's nickname. xD It's a nickname of a nickname.
Kitteh is ma besty. I've known her for 9 plus years!
How did you meet Kitteh?
On livejournal. Geez- remember livejournal? XD I made a post on the ZADR livejournal community asking if there was anyone who wanted to rp some ZADR.
She replied and we got to talking on aim. Back then she was known as 'Kitty', but I'd always call her 'Kitteh'- and so the nickname stuck.
It was that first rp that turned into the fic Rilzit!
What games are you playing right now?
Tera. Vindictus. League of Legends. Ragnarok Online 2.
The questions I have aren't here!

Drawing References and ResourcesUpdated: Aug 13 2012
EVEN MOAR SKIN SWATCHES!
---
The best way to improve is to draw from real life. That's the best way to learn. If you don't know how to draw a certain angle of a hand or an arm, you shouldn't fudge it, you should always look it up and figure out how to draw it right. Hiding the hands behind the body is a no-no, people! The proof of bsing is easy to see: http://neofox.deviantart.com/journal/ART-knowledge-is-power-282518336
But often it's very hard to weed through the crap to find good stock to use as reference. So here I am, doing the work for you and naming some helpful resources.
PRIME ADVICE
I've been teaching my friend Kitteh how to draw, so I'm learning first hand just what steps to take to improve.
There's one very special thing you must do to improve. With this special thing you can go from amateur to pro. And that's PRACTICE. You can get all the references and tutorials you want, buy all the books, save all the tutorials and referenc

Awww yeee! All of Fire part 2 (aka Wind) is all archived together and ready to be updated/refurbished just like part 1. Wind was never actually finished, but I have biiig plans to FINALLY to do so!

SO GET HYPED! If you wanna see previews of the stuff I'm working on, either check my tumblr: https://neofox.tumblr.com or join my discord c: Some pretty cool peeps there. And I'm usually always on. https://discord.gg/dYE5akRD (invite link will last for a week)
