t100fic4blm Weekly Creator Spotlight 🎨

Every Wednesday, t100 Fic for BLM is chatting with one of our creators accepting prompts via the initiative!

Ally’s It’s a Wonderful Life Bellarke piece for the Bellarke Discord Advent Calendar event. View the post here!

This week we’re chatting with @allysketches! You can check out all her work here.

Questions

1. Where do you get your inspiration for your art?

I think my biggest inspiration is always the characters, their stories, and the connection I feel with them. The rest can come from anywhere... any kind of media I consume – if I can picture those characters in a specific scenario I immediately want to draw it!

2. What’s your favourite part of the creation process?

Ooh, composition and sketching, definitely! I love the process of translating an abstract idea to paper, searching for references and inspiration, figuring out the angles, poses, colors, expressions... It's almost like making a mental collage, adding and changing things, until I can picture it just right. It's the most fulfilling part to me.

3. Do you have a favourite piece you’ve done?

I don't think there's one absolute favorite, as this tends to change pretty much any time I get obsessed with a new idea, but this one I did for Instant Family by @nakey-cats-take-bathsss is pretty close. It has a special place in my heart, since it was basically my first Bellarke piece, for a fic thats very dear to me, and I put so much though into the details. It was a joy to make! I always come back to it. 🥺

4. What was the most difficult piece to create?

Honestly it's one I haven't yet finished, because it involves several drawings and I was so entranced with the idea that I didn't realize how long it would take... I just want to see it finished once and for all! 😂

But one that took me a bit out of my comfort zone was this one for the Bellarke Discord Halloween exchange, because I decided to make it full body AND draw a background. It was a challenge, and I almost gave up on these elements several times, but I'm glad I powered through and ended up loving how it turned out! Maybe I should do it more often 😆

5. What’s a piece that you would love someone to prompt you?

Oh boy, I don't have any specific idea in mind, but one thing I adore is to make art for fics! Also anything AU in general! Be it based on a movie, a tv show, or whatever scenario really – I love figuring out how those characters fit in that reality. I always have the most fun with those.(And I'm particularly a sucker for sitcoms and romcoms, if that helps 😜)
