You draw Mizore Ito so much, you've been dedicated for many years. It made me wonder, when did you first come up with her? and what's kept the appeal so strong for you? do you feel like she's a persona of you or your online image? or is it something else?

SketchMeNot responds:

Ah, well, I first came up with her back around 2015! She was actually meant to be a side character for a little story I wanted to make into a mini-comic. However, the more I thought about it, I realized that Mizore herself was a way more interesting character than whatever main character I had in mind for that story, so I scrapped that story and came up with one for Mizore to be the main character in! (^w^)

She's pretty much the personification of my love for Japanese horror and its tropes. I've always been a huge fan of j-horror and Mizore is a great way for me to express my love for it! I'm also really proud of how her design's grown over the years. As I've gotten better at drawing in general, so to I've gotten better at drawing her, so it's cool to be able to see my growth as I've drawn her (^-^)

She's definitely her own character and is separate from my own persona. I guess she could count as a sort of mascot for me, but I don't use her as an avatar for myself. She just really means a lot to me and I wanna do some more really cool stuff with her as time goes on.

It also makes me so so happy seeing so many people resonate with her in a positive way. I never expected her to receive the love that she's gotten over the years. It makes me so incredibly happy! (^w^)

Nobody guided people through Scholomance like Snabe, a place of many memories of rats, a questionable paladin tank, and getting teleported out of the boss room.

Precious memories.

yebbie

The mini beast is precious and beautiful.
Also this as a concept is very funny and cute.

Can't wait for the unreleased GBA game to come out.

Since you draw in a retro anime style so much, what are your personal favorite retro animes you really like? No judgment, just looking for shows I should watch. I really liked Black Lagoon, and although I only watched a bit, visually Bastard! was appealing. I love seeing old goofy voice acting matched with great hand drawn visuals.

Cute

What made you decide to put them in sailor outfits?

My beautiful red boi, in all his splendor

I always have mixed feelings about redraws, because often the sketchy imperfect look of the older versions appeal to me more. In this case I really like the new one a lot, the lines are cleaner but the colours are also really nice. It's like looking at the older rusted version, then the shiny version where she's been restored and cleaned up, or at her newest. Super pretty and cool design.

SketchMeNot responds:

Aww thank you so much for your kind words! (^-^) I'm glad you like the new version, as well as the old one! That's actually a pretty cool observation/idea, with the whole rusted vs new/polished thing! That's very fitting! I like it! (^w^)

Everybody loves Curly, myself included
