I love drawing headshot/PFPs so much!

Here’s a selection of ones I’ve done over the years~ I’m really honored that several still use this as their main PFPs today.

Boy, making things for conventions gives me a whole new type of anxiety ahaha… lmao

It’s fun but also nerve wracking.

Give folks their flowers

No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier

"They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

From bravewave.net/interviews/t...

Mo: Do you remember the first time you met someone who said they loved your work on Mega Man 2?

Tateishi: You’re the first, in 2013. No one else has.

Mo: Wow. I’m surprised. I don’t even have a follow-up question… how could no one come up and say something.

Tateishi: …

Mo: Now that you know how big Mega Man 2 is outside of Japan, do you look fondly back at the soundtrack?

Tateishi: Yeah, my thoughts have changed since I met you and became more aware of how people felt. But even when I was at Konami, I didn’t even bother telling anyone I did Mega Man 2. So the fact you came all the way to Japan to tell me these things makes me very happy I worked on the game all those years ago.

Hey all! I need to buy some supplies for the convention next month, so anything would help towards that.

If you order a fanart piece, especially video game related, and let me use it as a print or sticker for the convention, you get a discount and a free print or sticker of that piece~ 👀
