hello!! i love your art a lot. seeing your art pop up every once in a while always cheers me up and inspires me a lot. i was wondering if you have/would upload any speedpaints? i'm so curious to see your process

thank you so much for saying that! this is so sweet... i'm really happy my art can inspire you TT

i've been meaning to upload a speedpaint video for the last few years but somehow never got around to it.. lol i will try to show something this year! :")

the beginning

hii i just wanted to say ur art is so beautiful and is actually partially a factor of what brought me back to hnk :’)

Thank you! I'm really honored my art had an impact 😭 Happy you picked hnk back up and are enjoying it again 😊

How long will your shop stay open??? I'm so excited to order but I don't have the money rn (can you tell by my username what pin im going to buy)

Open until this Sunday, March 31 at 11:59 pm PDT! I will reopen my store with leftover stock of Ghost and others + b-grade pins around June if you'd prefer to wait! 👍😊

Hi Pemprika :) I'm really a fan of your work. I wanted to ask about your HnK pins, since I hoped to buy some in particular (I'm in love with your Ventricosus, Aculeatus and youngest version of Phos among the others) but I see that the first two are sold out. These are among the designs that will be discontinued, is it correct? If so, is there any possibility of a new design for them in the future? (Only if you would like to share, I wanted to know if there's any particular reason for the discontinuing)

I hope I can still find them at least as grade B pins. If not, I'm happy to have a lot of choices with the other characters :)

Hi! I'm sorry for the delayed response... 🤧 Yes, I'll have b-grades of Ventricosus and Aculeatus available when I reopen my store in early June (tentatively); however, Aculeatus is much lower in stock than the rest. 😣

The IPSEITY pins require quite a bit of logistics and space to manage, and for me to bulk order in (very) large quantities, and sadly, I'm not that confident in selling high volumes of certain characters... 😢

If I get more interest from others, I would consider bringing them back in the future, but as for now, I plan on discontinuing the admirabillis and others. 😭 I also don't have plans on new admirabillis merch but that might change depending on my ideas!

Thank you so much for liking my art!! 😊

hi pem !! i love your art a lot and respect you as an artist, so i wonder if you've heard about how tumblr is selling data to openai & midjourney ?

keep yourself and your art safe :(( here's where i saw it from

https://sea.mashable.com/tech/31458/tumblr-users-heres-what-to-know-about-tumblr-selling-your-data-to-openai-and-midjourney

Wow such a bummer and very disheartening to hear... I've heard that this was implemented on Twitter (X) but not on Tumblr yet, so thank you for letting me know!! I appreciate you looking out ^_^

HI I JUST WANNA SAY YOUR HNK ART IS BEAUTIFUL AND ALL OF YOUR ART IS SO PRETTYYY ‼️‼️ KEEP AT IT!!

That's so nice T_T thank you for liking my hnk art!!

Is there a possibility that you'd ship to Germany again? ;-;

As much as I want to accommodate to my customers living in the UK and Germany, I'm not sure rn! T_T I'll see if I can work around the tax systems in the EU in the future.

Another alternative that customers have done is use proxy services, which provide a more convenient address to redirect international orders. I'm sorry I can't give you a better answer than this, but I'm hoping I'll find a way one day! Thank you so much for wanting to support me. :")

thank you!! 🥺 i typically draw with the 6b pencil on procreate for most of my drawings, including the piece you linked here! ��️

an untainted innocence

the divergence of humanity | spirit, flesh, bone

one of my riso print designs! based on the ventricosus arc when phos began their journey of change through unraveling the truth of humanity and understanding the concept of death.

i like how the sea is portrayed as a pivotal point of phos' undergoing physical transformation and deepening their sense of purpose, like driving their passion in keeping their promise and learning about the lunarians and the dark past of humankind. this part of the series is so nostalgic now ugh😭🥺

memories better left forgotten

i was emotionally groveling over how phos and shinsha's last moments together were tainted with anguish and sorrow... 🙂 i think it's interesting to see the progressive shift in shinsha's confidence, indicating how much their resolve grew since their first encounter with phos.

out of the two, shinsha is the only one who remembers their promise and the extent of its deep significance. between letting go of the notebook and crushing the mercury-formed figure of young phos, it felt like shinsha forcibly wanted to distance their old feelings for phos, at least the memory of the version who actively wanted to save them in the first place, in order to protect adamant.

nevertheless, i'd like to think shinsha's efforts didn't fall through considering how clearly they could recall their gratefulness to phos since the last few centuries the promise was made until the very end. ^_T
