F.A.Q

Fri Oct 2, 2009, 1:08 PM
As an artist, I get many questions, and here's the journal dedicated to all the stuff people ask me. And if you want to ask me something, just go ahead.

---About Me---
Q: Who are you?
A: I'm Anna, i'm 17 years old and i'm a senior in high school.

Q: Why did you go on this site?
A: I love drawing, so it makes sence that i'd be attracted to an entire site dedicated to the arts.

Q: Why so many Disney pictures?
A: It's my dream to work at Disney someday, so I might as well practice when i'm young.

Q: Isn't it true you do poetry?
A: Yes, but I don't write very much and if I do it's usually private. I'll only put up my writing if the writing club I go to bugs me enough.

Q: Wait, your screenname is "PolishStitch" but it says you live in the states, what gives?
A: I get this alot. I was born in Poland, and was adopted into the states. Also, people call me Stitch since I can talk like him and such so PolishStitch sounded very fitting as a screenname.

Q: If you never picked "PolishStitch" as a screenname, which would you pick?
A: Moon of the Strawberries. It's my screenname for some other sites I go on.

Q: You never do requests.
A: That's a lie. I work on them alot, but I have a rather busy personal life and can't put up them right when you ask me. And before you say something along the lines of "but you put up other drawings all the time" I put up drawings or sketches that I can draw easilly. Most of the stuff I draw for other people are harder to draw for me since it's not of my expertise.

Q: You play guitar right? Can I hear you play?
A: If you must. The only way to do that though is to get ahold of my MSN address and ask me to turn on my mic. But keep in mind that i'm not very good, most of the stuff is crap I play by ear.

Q: Can I have your Brawl/Mario Kart Wii code?
A: Sure, send me a note.

Q: How long have you been drawing?
A: Ever since I was little XD I got pretty serious into drawing in 3rd grade

Q: ARE YOU JESUS?
A:...no

Q: Whose your favorite DA friend?
A: I don't have an uber favorite, I love you all, really :3 But really, the more we talk, the more I like you. Simple as that.

Q: What foods do you like?
A: My favorites are cheese pizza, keilbasa and cavadil

Q: What time do you go to bed?
A: Depends. On school nights, usually 11. On weekends or over the summer, 11:30 to 12:00. I like my sleep.

Q: Do you sleep with plusheis/stuffed animals?
A: Yea, I have a collection of my absoulte favorites behind my pillow, and I have an old stuffed bear I sleep with. I guess it's because I tend to pull things near me when I sleep, and since I like the covers over my head and not iron gripped to my chest....XD

Q: What are your favorite games?
A: The SSB series, Twilight Princess, EBA and the pokemon series.

Q: Do you have a boyfriend?
A: Nope, and most likely won't get one either. Nor do I really want one. Don't do online relationships either. And it's not like I don't have guy friends, I do, cept they don't like me like that and I don't like them like that. And most the guys at my school suck anyway. Sorry guys, maybe one day ^^;

Q: What other (site) accounts do you have?
A: My Youtube Account: Used mostly for games, animations, and Spore creatures. Sometimes I update it with important information, so it's wise to check it if I say I uploaded an important video.
My Shared Youtube Account: A shared account with *CoffeeKittens in which we rant about things and play video games.
My Smashboards Account: This is my normal hangout. I check this site so much everyday.

Q: How long does it take for you to draw?
A: Depends. It usually takes me anywere from 15 minutes to an hour for lineart. The coloring itself can take another hour. But some drawings can take me only about 30 minutes.

Q: HEY! You NEED to look at this!
A: If by any chance I really need to see something important, or you just want me to look at something you drew or found online, i'd be happy to see it! Just send me the link in either a note or a message on my page and i'll get to it A.S.A.P.

Q: What color is your room?
A: Light blue.

Q: Would you make me a sandwhich?
A: ....ok

Q: What are your current obsessions?
A: Brawl is definatly it. Some past ones were L&S and Teen Titans. Don't get me wrong, I still love those to death ^^

Q: Am I pretty?
A: Probably better looking than I am XD

Q: Who do you main as in *insert game here*?
A: In Brawl I main Zero Suit Samus, and backup with Bowser, and Yoshi (sometimes Lucario, but matches with Lucario tend to last a long time).
In Melee I main Doc <3
In Mario Kart Wii I use Amber (Mii), because seriously, she's my role-play character, she deserves to race and they have her motorcycle in it XD I also use Rosalina

Q: When is your birthday?
A: February 25th

Q: So, if you're from Poland, does that mean you can speak Polish?
A: Sadly, no, I can't TT_TT But I am learning

Q: Out of all your charaters, who's the most fun to draw?
A: Tricky question...but I'd have to say Theo. His design is rather creepy, so it's fun trying to make something so innocent and kind look horrifying XD

Q: Do you do other art forms other than drawing/writing/music?
A: Sometimes I do photography, not good at it though but I still enjoy it. One day I also want to create a work of art by doing something spontanious, like that artist who covered an entire room with cheese puffs XD

Q:Do you give any of your own characteristics to any of your characters? For example, do you have any similar flaws or feelings or way of life?
A: Yes, each and every character has a piece of me in them. The most evident mirrors of my personality/characteristics are PolishStitch and Amber, although each at the far end of each side of the spectrum.

Q: Coke or Pepsi?
A: Coke. But if I go to a restaraunt and they only serve Pepsi, i'll just take that. In retrospect I don't really see any diffrence between the two.

Q: How the hell do you shade so good? HOOOOOOW???
A: Most of the ways I shade are just little curious ideas I had during drawing. So each and every shaded drawing you see originally started out by me testing out what looked go and so on and so forth.
If you want to see an example of how I shade you can find a video here

Q: What's your favorite color?
A: I like purples, blues, greens and black.

Q: What are your top ten favorite songs?
A: Ugh, hard question. Depends what mood i'm in, but a few of my favorites are Livin on a Prayr, Cemetary Gates,

Q: Have you ever been to the beach?
A: Yes, i've been to the beach numerous times. Sometimes I go don to the beach near where I live just to take a walk or ride my bike, though.

Q: Have you ever traveled outside your state?
A: Numerous times, my parents love dragging me on vacation

Q: What is your favorite sport?
A: Volleyball.

Q: Do you like stormy days?
A: Yes, but the best storm of all are sun-storms, in my opinion.

Q: What color are your eyes and hair?
A: My eyes are blue and my hair is brown.

Q: Do you have a favorite car?
A: I don't like cars, I prefer motorbikes.

Q: If you had $15,000,000, what would you do with it?
A: Charity, put it into savings. I wouldn't spend all of it on useless stuff. I'd live the same way I do now, just with huge amounts of cash in the bank just in case.

Q: What would be the perfectly romantic setting for you?
A: Umm, let's see. Just being able to sit down with said person for hours and talk about everything. I'd like if it was outside during a sunset or something, or just outside or whatnot. I'm not that hard to please.

---My experiments---
Q: Why doesn't PolishStitch have any eyelashes?
A: She doesn't like them, so she plucks them off.

Q: Didn't you used to have about 10+ experiments?
A: Yes, but most of them were designs for other people and I didn't like that. So I kep the four I liked the most, PolishStitch, Archer, Otter, and Theo.

Q: Two of your experiments are destructive and the other two arn't. Why is that?
A: They're all destructive, it's only how they decide to use their powers.

Q: So, what exactly are there abilities?
A: PolishStitch is a failed dragon experiment. Jumba attempted to create an experiment that was based off the 'dragon' creatures he kept hearing about. PolishStitch is a failure, because she can't breathe fire and doesn't even have anything in commen with one. The only thing she can do is erupt flames from her hands and create a fire 'shock wave, but only up to three feet. And she's fireproof, so she can light herself on fire and walk around like that. PolishStitch's one wish is to become a 'real' dragon.
Archer was created to create doomsday devices. Despite the fact that Archer's brilliant, he never showed any drive to create anything that dangerous. Like his creator, Archer is more than happy to create whatever he pleases. He has only one downside, when he finds a piece of technology that wracks his mind, he'll take it apart and find out how it works.
Otter was created as a 'water imp', a creature to live in swamps/lakes/oceans/etc and to devistate anything that comes close. Despite this, Otter is a kind, gentle, and charmingly mischevous experiment, who actually enjoys befriending people istead of terrorizing them. She has slight control over water, and can produce 'sonic waves' (think of a dolphin's eco-location) that can harm any enemies in the water.
Theo was designed to be the ultimate war terror, to make people see things that aren't really there. even scarier is the fact that these illusions are so good they can be assumed real, and can even be sences with the other sences. Theo DOES have this power, and uses it sometimes to annoy other people, but he's completely kind-hearted and wouldn't hurt a fly.

Q: So...what are their personalities?
A: PolishStitch is mischevious, violent, and wants it her way.
Archer is practically Milo from Atlantis ( nerdy, HIGHLY intelligent, kind hearted) but isn't as awkward and get's shy around girls he likes.
Otter is kind, gentle and motherly. She might do something michevous but only a very slight amount.
Theo is sweet, think of a puppy and that's Theo in a nutshell. He wouldn't hurt a fly, but will become very defensive if one of his friends is threatened.

---Amber & Co.---
Q: Who is Amber?
A: Amber is my roleplay character.

Q: I've seen some drawings of another character you had awile ago named "Phoenix". Why does she resemble Amber so much?
A: Simple, their the same person. When I first created Phoenix (rather rushed, might I add) she was originally created with the same temperment in mind. But somehow...she turned out real mellow and almost "damsel-in-distress". Once the rp site I went to went down, I threw her back into the little oven in my mind and over time, slowly rebuilt her as to who she was supposed to be originally.

Q: What's a hybrid?
A: A word for anyone whose spirit guides are a mix of two animals. Amber's is a wolf/dragon mix, and since their is no real title for it, everyone just refers to it as a 'hybrid' or just her 'spirit guide'.

Q: Why can Amber's family turn into diffrent animals?
A: They're not complete humans like we are. They each have an animal spirit that they can transform to, and it can be anything real, extinct, or fantasy. They live on a diffrent continent than we do that's uncharted from a biased role on their lives. People think that the being living their are cannibals, since they do have meat over there (which in reality they import it). And the people can marry any animal. So when they have kids, it can be either one or the other. Like in Amber's case, her mother is a wolf and her father is a dragon. Her sister is a dragon and her little brother is a wolf.

Q: So if the children can be either one, why is Amber both?
A: It's nearly a .1% chance that the DNA of both animals will merge into one. Sadly, this is so rare that some people think diffrently about hybrids, as they are called.

Q: Why does Amber carry a gun with her everywere?
A: She works in the secret service in her country, and she patrolls the area to make sure nobody's trying to hijack there cities.

Q: Why is she such a bitch?
A: Rough life mostly, and the fact she hates practically everything.

Q: Who are Maybelle and Ty?
A: Maybelle is Amber's older sister (23) and Ty's her younger brother (10)

Q: Is Amber/Maybelle/Ty a happy or angry drunk?
A: Maybelle's a happy drunk, her cheerful dispusition doesn't change even if shes had a little too much.
Ty's...too young to be drinking. SO I don't really know.
Amber's a violently happy drunk. She'd be fun to be around but might shoot you for no reason (she also can't lie when she's drunk, so you can ask her anything and she'll tell you exactly what she thinks about said topic). But watch out, once she's sober she becomes the maddest thing alive. You've been warned.

Q: Is Amber dating?
A: Yes, she's with Jet.

Remember guys, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment! :nod:
