My facts


1. I hate to tell people my age - I feel ashamed of my age compared to my skills, I know I could have been better if I practiced more
2. I laugh at really attractive people. I can't help it. So if I’m laughing at you for some reason, I’m most likely giving you 11/10.
3. I can't do anything else than art. I have literally no other proper skills lol I suck
4. I have no idea what my sexuality is but I can tell you that 1) I'm not interested 2) unless you have a very strong british accent 3) then I might reconsider
5. I'm known for my utter and complete disgust and hate for humanity and yet I constantly fight for strangers. I need to sort out my priorities.
6. My mom keeps telling me nothing makes me happy and yet I get really emotional over morning fog or a nice tree. I might seem cold sometimes but I'm actually really passionate about lots of stuff haha
7. I try to fight my phobias, so far I've learned to not run from smaller spiders, climb a ladder (lol) but I'm never going into deep water tho fuck that haha
8. I FUCKING LOVE ANIMALS AND NATURE AND THIS PLANET I'LL SKIN YOU ALIVE IF I SEE YOU TREATING ANIMALS LIKE SHIT NO KIDDING I SCARE PEOPLE AWAY WHEN I'M DEFENDING ANIMALS I'M FURY AND DEATH AND NOTHING WILL SAVE YOU - ANIMALSSSSSSS
9. I have cool hair. Or like, my hair has a person under it. I started to like it when kids at school tried to burn it haha reverse psychology, I'm a rebel
10. I have fucking amazing dreams like I love my brain and I don't even care that much for reality anymore DREAMSSS

Questions for me


1-what's your favorite food?
OH MAN so many uhhhh okay mashed potatoes (CZECH), pizza, grilled broccoli with cheese and potatoes (HNGGGG) aaaand FRUITS (especially melons and tangerines, I call them mrdalinky, don't translate that)

2-what's your ideal vacation?
Somewhere north - Canada, Scotland, Ireland, ... I'd love to see the architecture, historical sights, nature... But one of my biggest dreams is to see wild orcas *A* *vibrates* + MONT SAINT MICHEL HELLO MY LOVE
I WOULD ALSO love to do at least one road trip in my life haha

3-how do you get inspiration?
Hmm everywhere and from everything I think. I find shitload of inspiration from random textures or shapes, from real life, dreams, situations, other art, atmosphere, MUSIC...it doesn't matter if I'm sitting at a toilet or a bus stop haha. I find night time/sunrise the most inspirational time though, when everything is silent and cold =v=

4-where/how/who do you want to be in a year?
I would love to be able not to stress about if I'll have enough money to survive next week, that would be great XD I'd love to get some more people over to patreon because I have so much plans for it and it would be sooo coool... I'd love to get some actual work done, finish some projects, speed things up, and especially, the top priority is to keep updating Asternight-comic as much as possible and get more people to read it TvT

5-what do you like the most about your art?
Koti you're evil XD Nothing much to be honest. I strive to capture atmosphere, that's really important to me and lately people told me that they can feel it so if it's true then HELL YEAH. I like when people feel touched by it somehow - when I make them laugh, cry, or they're creeped out haha. I put my favourite things in my art so I do like it but I don't find it special in any way.

6-what kind of music do you like?
ALL THE MUSIC. I lost any boundaries as of late, give me anything lol. I can have a playlist consisting of Fall out boy, Two steps from hell, Linkin park and 2Cellos and I won't even blink haha

7-what do you like on other people?
Logical and practical thinking, empathy. I don't take seriously people who judge others, make assumptions a lot, think they're something more and think they're the wisest and coolest around. Basically, I like wise people that know what's up and see through bullshit haha

8-any movie you love?
Movies I can watch over and over again: KINGSMAN, Mad Max: Fury road, Nolan's Batmans, Naruto moviesCOUGHCOUGH, Mummy, Mukou Hadan, FMA: The conquerors of Shamballa, Pirates of the Caribbean, V for Vendetta, Ironman(s), uhhhh so muchhh--

9-in a zombie apocalypse how would you survive?
(THIS QUESTION HAS WON YOU MY HEART FYI) I'm not good at running, but I'm good at organizating shit, handling hectic situations and slapping people who freak out so I would either go for a base in the wild (get the fuck away from cities you fools) or driving across the country with some people, but I can't drive which is kinda a death sentence XD I THINK ABOUT THIS A LOT THO, YOU NEVER KNOW RIGHT

10-do you consider yourself artistic?
I had once the thought that there are some people that spend their days without creating anything. Like the thought of existence of people that do not draw or play or write or create anything artistic blew a hole into my head and I wasn't the same since. How do they do it? HOW? So yeah I guess? XD

And I taaag...

If you don't have time/already did this then feel free to ignore haha

QUESTIONS FOR YA PEEPS:
1) TELL US ABOUT YOUR ART PROJECTS, WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?
2) What part of the art process do you enjoy the most? (ex. sketching, finishing details, ...) and why?
3) Is there an artist from history that you would totally want to hang out with?
4) Are you struggling with something in particular with your art right now?
5) "I CAN'T DIE YET I HAVEN'T-"
6) Any sleeping habits?
7) Do you have any kind of art that makes you immediately go weak at your knees? Like you see a shape/colors/style and you beg for mercy because IT'S JUST SO BEAUTIFULLL
8) What is the ultimate in-comfort-zone thing you could draw? DON'T HOLD BACK
9) What boosts you up? What makes your heart jump? WHAT MAKES YOU ALIVE?
10) WHAT IS THE FUNNIEST THING THAT COMES TO YOUR MIND NOW? Joke, story, video, whatever!

How are you doing ppl? How's the asshole summer been for you so far? You liking the global warming temperatures? I myself must admit I love it TO DEATH. I wish I could set myself on fire from all the happiness, but I believe the sun will do it for me very soon, ha.

So, long time no updates. To be quick:

  • I've got a job. It's not bad, should have more free time, but it's exhausting and I'll barely make it with money.
  • I'VE GOT A NEW COMPUTER, OR MORE LIKE, A SUPER BADASS MONSTER OF A MACHINE THAT CAN HANDLE ALL THE SHIT. Don't ask me where I've got it, suffice to say I'll pay for it with blood and tears one day ahah WORTH IT THO
  • Been drawing this whole time, some sketches were uploaded to tumblr, rest is...probably not gonna be posted. To be honest, I kinda lost any motivation at all to share my drawings with people. I show it to :iconkaifuu: and that's all. I've used to look forward to people's responses and comments and be incredibly inspired and happy by how it was received but after the "I'm gonna go freelance" where nobody backed me up except for my one patron over at patreon and Kaifuu, I've realized I no longer feel like sharing art with people. It probably sounds really pretentious and sour, but I feel like my art is worth shit to everyone.
    So I'm not sure how much of what I do I'll be posting in the future, probably close to zero. I plan on posting art mostly on patreon from now on.
    I wish I was able to share all I do for free. But I can't. It's all I can do and it's worth nothing to me if I end up in jail for not paying taxes. Our society is a bitch.
  • WHICH BRINGS US TO THE NEXT POINT, and that being I've reopened MY PATREON, the first batch will be released in the first days of september, which you will get if you pledge by the end of august~
  • Also will be opening special commissions (I really miss doing those would you believe that?) with limited slots soon, I'm still in great debt and if I don't get rid of it soon...lord help me haha.
So, any news? Anything worth mentioning? IS THERE ANYONE THAT LIVES IN COLDER PLACE AND WISHES TO SHARE THEIR NICE COLD STORIES ABOUT THEIR NICE COLD SUMMER because I would very much like to read that now haha

PS: I've got the livestream working, HERE'S THE LINK! Should I post a journal/poll or a deviation when I start streaming? What will you guys prefer?

PPS: Hello to all the new followers! I'VE GOT MANY MESSAGES TO CATCH UP TO, BARE WITH ME OTL

EDIT: If by some miracle you wish to help me, the best and only way is spreading the word about my PATREON. I've put all my best stuff in there and I plan on it being a super secret club where we talk about art, share stuff that nobody else has seen and help each other out so it would be amazing if people joined. Go check out the rewards and preview of them in posts if anything catches your eye
Here are the tumblr posts if you want to reblog it

Hey guys

Just some info for future visitors & current watchers:

I'll dissappear for a while. Or longer. Who knows.
I did my (almost, you can always do better right?) best at reaching my dreams and as it seems, it wasn't enough. I have like six days until I ran out of money and then...who the fuck knows what I'll do. I sure have no idea. No money for rent, for traveling to work, phone bills, nada.

They'll be probably cutting us from internet by the 15th I think, so until then I can read messages (I know I've got some people drawing me some stuff, so I'll try to reply to your notes!). I've got also some more comments to reply to (very sweet actually, it made my poor day a little better), but to be honest...I really don't feel like talking to anyone right now. I'm on edge even writing this haha

SO, I won't be posting on any of my websites, no art, no updates, no nothing.

This applies to EVERYTHING except PATREON and Asternight-comic (hopefully)
(since I can update only few times a month from somebody else's place)

I'm closing commissions for now too since I won't have time to make them.

Be good and don't take drugs, kids!

YO AND CHECK MA WAIFU SHE'S DA BEST 4 REAL YO AND SHE DESERVES HER OWN PLANET MADE OUT OF GOLD

Heyyy (late update cuz I suck)

WORK

So with all the moving and prepping for con, my "oh my I'm gonna go freelance" isn't really going so well XD SURPRISE. But hey, I still have till the end of may. If I don't earn enough to support my family and be able to afford something to eat, then welp, there goes my art career. Thing is, we moved pretty much into middle of nowhere and while it will help us financially, any fulltime work I find (IF) means several hours a day on a train and lots of lost time. I won't be able to draw if working fulltime somewhere else, that's a fact.
*TOSSES DOZENS OF UNFINISHED PROJECTS OUT OF WINDOW* bye comics bye games it was nice while it lasted

BUT

THINGS AREN'T LOST YET

What would really help me are COMMISSIONS (I'll be uploading the traditional ones in a bit) and MY PATREON. If you're not interested/able to afford to spend not even 2 dollars a month at my art, you can always REBLOG ANY OF MY PATREON POSTS ON TUMBLR. We will see if I can make it, but I appreciate any support, truly TvT

ANIMEFEST

So me and kaifuu attended Animefest in Brno this weekend and let me say, it was AMAZING. We had our tables at Artist Alley along these lovely ladies Asano-nee saniika Aifumi and a few more. People were so nice and supportive like what the hell? THIS IS NEW TO ME. I LIKE IT. Also, organizators = my heroes. I've never met so capable people and I'm definitely going next year again.
It was exhausting tho and I feel bad for not being able to finish all the pieces people commissioned (THERE WERE LOTS, I'M SO HAPPY, THANK YOU GUYS), but I've met so many great people, like faQy - I almost died when she showed up, when me and Kaifuu got our hands on her sketchbook we were barely breathing ahaha, my fangirling was never higher. I've also met BucketLady - my favourite tumblr follower who showed up in titan pajamas. You made my day gurl, thanks for stopping by! I'm also really glad I could see the always amazing Alassa and her band of brothersCOUGHCOUGH, even if for a short moment. I wish there was more time to hang out together TAT

Here are some photos from the con that Kaifuu did + some commissions I've done :iconjimgagaplz:

(I'm repainting that Anders rn, big thanks to Lady-Stage for commissioning it!)

MOVING

Also I didn't have time to say this, but me and my family moved out from the city (actually the day before the con, the last few weeks were the most hectic and exhausting in my life I think) and we're currently living in a...well, chaos. The house we live in (YES WE HAVE A HOUSE HOW COOL IS THAT) isn't done yet, it has pretty much one room with floor the rest is a construction site ahahah...everything is covered with boxes...what I'm saying is there's a lot of shit going on and my inbox has thousands (literally) of messages. So please, if you wrote me in september and I still haven't replied, I'm SO sorry, but I will get to it eventually XD SORRY AGAIN
