ABOUT

I'm DeadLine, Doz, or DL. I draw. I'm 24, hispanic, and the inner machinations of my gender are an enigma.DozLopez is my professional alias, and DeadLine is my fandom space where I mostly draw Sonic OCs. I draw for fun and occasionally for work as a freelance artist and art vendor. I haven't been vending much lately, but you might find me around at CA, AZ, and TX events.I enjoy engaging with my followers, and may even try to make a few buds here and there, but I happen to be quite asocial, especially in private. It's something I'm working on, but if you approach me, please don't be intimidated by or take my silence personally. I suck at talking. 😭But I'm just here to have fun. I draw and talk about Sonic and Splatoon, and occasionally yell about my cats. I have four. And when I do yell about my cats please yell back at me with your cats. Please.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do you take requests? Art trades?
No requests. Art trades are rare and are exclusive to mutuals.Can I draw your OCs?
YES <3Can I draw my my OC shipped with yours?
No, please no surprise romantic portrayals or crackships--though casual oc interactions are always welcome!What tools do you use?
Tablet: Wacom Cintiq Pro 24" / iPad Pro
Software: CLIP STUDIO PAINTWhat brushes do you use?
The brush I use from sketching to shading is just a modified version of the default textured pen. I don't use any pressure sensitivity and instead use tilt dynamics to the control the size and opacity of my lines. For lineart, I turn off opacity altogether.Settings:

How to find the graphs:

These settings can be applied to any brush you choose. Mine is the textured pen because I like the jagged line quality and prefer my lines not be silky smooth. I suggest duplicating the tool you plan to edit in case you find yourself not liking the tilt dynamics—easy delete/you don’t mess up your favorite brush.Have a question?
