Noticed that people still pick these up (Thank you so much!! ToT ) so I thought I'd consolidate the two into a single post so people can more easily find them here on tumblr.
All sales are split between @auroblaze and myself. Even all these years later, we much appreciate our readers, both old and new! Thank you for enjoying our work!

For the artist ask game, if that's ok. 🥺 2, 6 and 24.
2. 5 favourites of your own work?
Oh man let’s see. So, I already shared two of my favorite arts I did last year in a previous ask, so I picked 5 other arts that I’m obscenely proud of and loved drawing. These aren’t necessarily what I consider my best work, just pieces that I had so much fun with. Pieces that I love, and still love, and still look back on fondly. The last one was drawn in pencil, thus the texture. Here they are:
6. Which artists inspire you right now?
So many. So many artists. I could wax all day about who I find very inspiring, but I will name just a handful of the artists who inspire me right now.
Every single one of these artists are heckin talented. They are all wonderful artists overflowing with creativity and skills and amazing ideas. Every time I see art from them it just sparks my own creativity. They each have their own unique styles and personality they bring to their art that just floors me, stuns me, leaves me striving to capture some of that in my own work. Though I don’t know how. But I want to try.
@shinayashipper just has this softness, and this style that leaves me with warm feels. And I wish I could draw Yugi with the type of expression and bubbliness they do. I adore the sharp angles they draw, and the way they draw eyes.
@brobexx does facial expressions like you wouldn’t believe. Their art captures mood and personality and everything in a way I could only dream of. It’s incredible. Their character art just oozes personality from the body language all the way to the faces.
@tsurenaii-iianerust has drawn some of the most incredible tattoos on Atem I have ever seen. And I wish one day I could do something like that. Like seriously, drawing tattoos is hella difficult and they make it look so easy. They’re incredible.
@bold-embrace captures these cute and heartfelt moments. These little expressions and soft touches. Their art is warm and soft and gorgeous, and I admire their use of color so much. Color is something I’m always trying to get better at, and they are so good with it.
@auroblaze does amazing work with traditional medium. I was a traditional artist for most of my life, up until around 4 years ago. And I have to say I have the biggest soft spot for traditional art. And Auroblaze has got some of the best damn traditional art I’ve seen. They draw the characters so well, so expressive and lively, and their style is just *chef’s kiss*. Heckin amazing. Their pencil and pen work is breathtaking. And seeing it makes me long to pick up my own pencils and pens more again.
@artofgreyscalerainbow is like the god of magical creature Yugis. I will say it now. They have drawn so many magical creature Yugis and every single one is amazing, and I want to draw fanart of them all. I love all their art. Their traditional art is just so exceptional. And I love their designs, and gosh they are amazing.
@enberlight does some amazing things with 3D models and renders them, and it’s incredible. I know 3D rendering is so much work, and so challenging, and seeing the level of detail they put into their pieces is just astounding. Incredible. I love seeing the stuff they make. I know I’ll never understand computers enough to do anything like that, but it makes me want to try to learn computers better.
@makota1911, damn, what do I say? You are just amazing. The way they draw Ryou and Yami Marik, it’s stolen my heart. Their art style is so unique and breathtaking. I could pick it out in an instant in a sea of other art. It’s just that unique. And I love their art. I love the characters they draw and the personality. I love their stylization. I acknowledge that style is something an artist develops over time and should not be rushed or forced, and it’s ok to experiment with different styles. But man, Makota’s art inspires me strive to develop my own style a little more. I get so excited every time I see something new from them. And I know they left tumblr for a little while, but Makota, I’m so glad you are back. You’re amazing.
@upload2004, your style is just wow. Another artist with a style so unique and so expressive. I’m just floored. Every time I see your stuff I just marvel, and stare, and focus on the little details, and the stylization, and the expression. I love how your style pushes the boundaries. It’s incredible, you’re incredible. You’ve not only inspired me artistically, but in my writing as well. Your art has given me ideas, and just talking to you has given me ideas.
@the-pigeon-queen, what can I say except that their art single handedly changed my entire opinion about Shadi for forever. Shadi went from a character I kinda despised to a character I wholeheartedly embrace and enjoy. And it’s all Pigeon Queen’s fault. Their art is incredible, their characterization of Shadi is fabulous. I adore the way they draw Pegasus. And their fanfic made me fall in love with their version of Shadi, and the whole Shadi x Pegasus ship. I love it now. I’m unashamed how much I love it. And if I draw Shadi in the future you will know it’s because of them.
@thatsaltybobcat has this style that is astounding. They are so talented, and being their friend over the past year+ has been such a treasure. I’ve gotten to watch their art grow, and evolve, and their style get refined. And they’ve only gotten better and better in leaps and bounds. And trust me they were already a hella talented artist to begin with, but they’ve just made miles of improvement in the time I’ve know them. And honestly, that in and of itself is downright inspiring.
@shiki-art-corp just makes these arts that have such a level of detail, and such an attention to detail that it leaves me breathless. Every single piece I’ve seen from them is so intricate. You could look at their art and constantly seen these new and small details that just bring a life to their work that’s marvelous. I love seeing their art, and they inspire me to try to do more small details in my own work. Hella talented artist they are.
@carura the way they color is just mesmerizing. The color, the atmosphere they bring to their art. Just seeing their work fills me with this sense of calmness. I can’t explain it. It’s something in their coloring. They draw hair like no one’s business. Like seriously their style for drawing character hair is so intense, and amazing and I love it. They also got me hooked on a banging song that I have on my playlist of work music now. And I listen to the song while I draw. So thanks, you are awesome.
@kevlar01 what can I say about you that I haven’t already said whenever I reblog some of your art? I can’t get over your adorable style, and the body language you express in your character drawings. I love your work so much, and it brings such a smile to my face. I admire the way you draw animals, especially your wolf characters. You capture fur so well. You inspire me everyday to work on my Sphinx AU. And honestly if it weren’t for you I probably wouldn’t have written or drawn half the stuff for it that I have. You’re a big reason I’ve made so much progress on it. Thank you friend.
@craneace is honestly an incredible artist and if you haven’t seen their work then you are missing out. They are so talented and the way they draw Thief King Bakura just leaves me with feelings. They draw some of the sexiest TKB art I’ve ever had the pleasure to witness, and honestly their art has inspired me to push myself with drawing different clothes more. I always struggle with clothes, but seeing the amazing clothes they’ve drawn TKB, and Ryou, and Marik wearing has made me want to improve, and experiment drawing more clothing. Crane also colors like you wouldn’t believe. Incredible coloring skills that I look up to, and admire so so much.
Anyway, I’ve already gushed about so many artists. I’ll be done now. I could go on for hours just telling you how amazing artists are, and how much they inspire me, how you should definitely go check out everyone mentioned here. But I’ll be done now. But seriously go check out every artist I mentioned. They are incredible, and while I don’t know them all, and haven’t spoken to all of them personally, I hope they won’t be offended that I tagged them here to wax about how amazing I think they are.
24. How do you deal with artblock?
I listen to music, or rain sounds. I have bookmarked rain sounds on Spotify to listen to and it helps me focus. Especially rain on a car windshield. But mostly I listen to music, music with lyrics, and I let the feels from the songs get my drawing and writing muses flowing.
Aside from that, sometimes I just browse stock photos, and save the poses I like the most. Then I use them later for drawing practice.
The biggest thing I can suggest though is that if you are having art block it might just be a sign from your body and brain that you need a break. Sometimes it’s a short break, sometimes it’s a long long long break. But you should listen. Don’t force yourself to art if you aren’t feeling it. That can turn something you love doing into something that feels like a chore. And you’ll grow to hate it. Give yourself time to breathe and refresh. You don’t have to art all the time.
