Hey there ☺️

I'm redoing some old lineart as part of a collab that another DA user seemed interested in, and was just thinking of making it an open collab. (Posted a pic of the progress)

Basically this just means I give you guys my lineart and anyone who wants to color can. You can print it out and color, or I can give some directions on how to color it digitally!

Then I will shout out to everyone who participates with credit on my DA status and Instagram ☺️ (unless you don't want me to)

Does this seem like something fun to do?? You guys can get a good look at how scratchy my line art rlly is 😅😅

If no one is interested no worries ☺️ at least I get to touch up one of my favorite old drawings 🙊

I'll make a big post with directions if people indicate interest ☺️Open Collab - thoughts???? by burlace

7_Tag-backs are ALLOWED.
8_YOU MUST MAKE A JOURNAL ENTRY. NO COMMENTS. Unless you're commenting about the actual entry.



    1. do you like classic literature?

        
    Yes, although I don't read it regularly. Love the Count of Monte Cristo, and all Shakespeare plays, especially. 

    2. what is your favorite artist?why?

    I don't have a favorite overall, I'd say, but I do have artists I admire - Josiah Brooks and Mark Crilley especially, for the kind and inviting environment they inspire in art. They make me feel like anyone (myself included) can draw, and that drawing is about coming together and enjoying what you do. And I agree completely. 

    3. and if you like manga what is you're favorite Mangaka?

    I am sure people I communicate with often on here will guess I love Adachitoka (the 2 manga artists that write Noragami), and I agree their art is stunning. 

    However, my favorite Mangaka would have to be Matsui, Yusei - the author of Assassination Classroom. His ability to tell a narrative just stuns me into silence and I have such admiration for the brilliance of his series. The art is nice, but it's the way he tells his story that places him at the top of my list. It's my goal to one day write a comic as brilliant as his.

    I am also a fan of Togashi, Yoshirio (Hunter x Hunter), but his storytelling is all over the place - in a great way! I just think his narrative follows his whim, which is nice, but I like a concise narrative with a clear distinct point. That is why he is not my favorite.


    4. whats your favorite kind of movie?

     This changes with my mood. Usually, though, if the ending surprises me in a good way I will like it. Sooo... unpredictable, I guess!

    5. do you like sports?

    Unless I personally know a player, or am at an event, I usually do not watch sports. I do love to play a few, though - like basketball, and swimming. Back in the day I also did Gymnastics and Track.

    6. last anime you saw.

    FairyTail.... tehe Sting - Extreem happy  although I will be checking out My Hero Academia shortly

    7. books you want to read and why.

    A very long list... But I will shorten it to 2
    - Death by Black Hole by Neil Degrasse Tyson --> I love learning about space
    - A Dance with Dragons by George R. R. Martin --> I used to read the Game of Thrones series but am short on time. I'd love to catch up

    8. where you like to go in your city?

    Actually I do not really like many places in my city as I do not like crowded places... although i do love the theatre there. I've been in the ceiling rafters as part of a grand adventure when i was younger Yato Sparkleeye Icon  It was thrilling and my friend and I were very stupid and careless.

    9. if you could chose a any historical era to live what would be?

    I would actually choose the future since I am excited for the era where we are all plugged into machines. YAY TECHNOLOGY Yato (Being fab) [V1] 

    10. 3 characters( book , movie, manga, etc) you hate and why.

    Ahhhh i hope people are not offended by my answers - these are all just my opinion so please take them lightly
    1. Kirito (Sword Art Online) - I know people get mad over liking/hating Kirito, but I have lengthy reasons as to why. To summarize - I am all for protagonists that are good at everything. But in my opinion, Kirito shows no growth as a person and I have no reason to like him as protagonist. Sword Art Online COULD have been great with some minor tweaks.
    2. Anakin Skywalker - An awesome villain in the originals - a watered down, entitled brat in the prequels (sorry I am showing my mean side Yato (No one wuvs me) [V1] )
    3. Albus Potter and Scorpius from Cursed Child - They were poorly written. I love the idea of them, but hate the way they were written and the miserable excuse for a plot they were put in. Sorry I am being very mean again Yato-scream- Noragami  I just expected more for a Harry Potter product. You barely get to know these boys and their decision process just makes no sense and purely revolves around plot convenience. I'd actually like to see someone draw a comic of them and give them a different adventure. Or fix the plot holes in Cursed Child.


    11. favorite sweet.

    Hershey Cookie Bars

    12. favorite drink.

    Tee hee Yato (Sneaky Bad Neko) [V1]  I am over 21 so I do have a favorite adult beverage :bademoticon:  However I feel like most of people I talk to on here are underage so I will say Cherry Pepsi Yato Sparkles Icon 

    13. what do you do during the holidays?

    Spend time with family. My brothers live very far away, but always come back home to where my parents live. My one brother has a wife and baby so it is great to see them.

    I also binge videogames and TV, which I don't normally get to do. Although this year we took a trip so my time was spent traveling with family. 
    I rode a rollercoaster for the first time in almost 2 years since I had brain surgery in 2015 which prevented me from enjoying thrills for a while Yato - |NORAGAMI| 


    My Questions

    1. What is your goal in drawing? Do you just want to improve for fun? Or do you strive to be a professional artist?

    2. If you'd like to be a professional artist, what do you see yourself doing? Character design? Storyboards? Comics? If you are just a hobbyist, what genre of art do you love to draw the most?

    3. If you could have any job in the world - and were guaranteed to get it, what job would it be and why?

    4. If you could live in any fantasy universe (Harry Potter, Manga, Movies, etc.) which universe would you choose and why?

    5. If you could have a magic power, what would it be? Would you use it for good, for evil, or just for your own purposes?

    6. What country would you love to travel to, and why?

    7. Would you rather bring your favorite fantasy character into reality? Or insert yourself into your favorite fantasy world? If the former, which character would you choose? If the latter, what world would you pick. Why?

    8. Would you rather win the lottery and instantly be a millionaire, or would you rather work and take crazy risks, while having a lot of fun and having adventures, but with no guarantees of success?

    9. What is your favorite anime? And what makes it stand out as your favorite?

    10. Who is your favorite villain of all time? (Manga, books, anime, videogames). What makes this villain stand out as best?

    11. If you could speak to any species of animal, which would you choose and why?

    12. Which do you like to do most - read books, read manga/comic books, or watch the stories as books or movies. Why?

    13. What is one talent that you always wished that you had?
