TEAM MEMBER INTERVIEW #21 - Minitsu!
Original poster: snarrymod
Your Name (and lj name if different): minitsu
Your Games Team: Team Angst (teamangst_art)
1. What made you decide on Team Angst?
Well, in the HP series, Harry and Snape have always been at each others' throats and the dynamic they shared was really neat. Definitely angst material for a relationship--platonic or otherwise. Likewise, I like me some good ole' angsty Snarry fanfiction! To me, it's like there can't be any romance without angst, because that's just the kind of people they are. And any romance they might share will definitely be laced with angst due to their situation and character.
2. Which HP character is your favourite to create in art?
Harry, Snape, and sometimes Draco~ Those are usually the ones I'll end up doodling for no particular reason. I think it's because, well, Harry's the main character, Draco's a brat, and I like drawing Snape's hair. Same goes for Hermione, too, now that I think about it. HAIR. :D)-\
3. Has your experience in fandom changed the way you do art? How?
Next to zero experience with the fandom, sadly... I'm hoping to rectify that now!
4. Do you prefer drawing your own scenarios, or drawing scenes from canon?
Both! More often than not I'll start drawing from the book, but my memory is terrible, so I'll be like, "...Wait. I only remember SO AND SO." And then just wing it from there.
5. What made you decide to draw fanart the first time? Which fandom was it?
... I think my first fanart was for Sailor Moon when I was like, in first grade. So uh. I really don't remember. I guess the thing that really got me serious about drawing in this particular style was Gundam Wing. Because... I am such a dork and want to be a Gundam pilot! :D)-/
6. Who is your favourite fandom artist?
Uhh, gosh, I don't think I could answer this! There's no way I could pick a favorite. They're all so talented and amazing.
7. Have you ever been inspired to draw fanart for a fanfiction work? Why?
Yes! From Telanu's Tea series. That's the first Snarry-anything I've ever read, and it's so well-written, it just has this place in my heart. I'm always going back to re-read it; I love it so much!
8. What are your favourite mediums to work with?
Mechanical pencils, Copic markers & multiliners, and openCanvas~ I just could not get the hang of Photoshop beyond making graphics, and Painter I'm testing out right now!
9. Do you have a piece of art (fandom or original) you've done that you are most proud of? Would you link it here for us?
Actually, yes I do, but I can't link it, as I do not have the picture! In senior AP English, as a final project, we had to create a "movie set" for a book we read through 10th to 12th grade, so I chose OotP--The Room of Requirement. On the day of grading, I was sitting with the set on my desk, waiting and generally bored out of my mind! So on the back of the box, I started to draw Harry and Snape. And for some reason, even though I was drawing at an uncomfortable angle, I really liked how it turned out! For the longest time, I had struggled with Snape's nose--and I finally got it "right!" Not to mention they were hella angry at each other. ;3
10. Are you excited about the Snarry Games?
Oh yes, definitely!!! I can't wait to see everyone's pieces, how they convey their angst/romance and prompts--that'll be awesome, totally. And the teamwork, helping your teammates out, giving advice, taking in ideas, crits: those all sound way fun. I am so psyched up for this!!! :D)-] *waves the Snarry banner*
Thank you, minitsu!
