our art is incredible, especially your patho stuff! 🫶 i have to ask if you’re bringing the plushies back, they’re absolutely stunning and i need them in my pocket 😭

Thank you so much omg T T!! I miss patho so much (still my favorite fictional work ever) and if I get a chance in the future, i'd love to more things :D I am ordering new packaging for them right now, so I think I will be able to make them available end of next week or the week following! I'll definitely announce it on my socials a few days prior :)

hi! so glad to see that you're back!! i'm so excited to have the chance to bring daniil home for me & my friends <333 is shipping within the u.s.? it'd be heartbreaking for the plushes to be seized or destroyed by customs so i wanted to make sure in case you'd need to declare them a certain way to bypass it!

Hello!! I'm so glad to find so many pathotwt friends too and thank you so much for your kind message! Shipping will be international, and if you click on my faq page there is a shipping price checker <3 My shipping company helps me declare the items and send them without the customers having to pay tax or import, so don't worry about the customs! If you don't end up receiving the plushies, I made sure to keep some extra ones to resend, and if so I can always try a different shipping route (more expensive lines, etc) to get it to you, I wouldn't worry too much about it since in the past there weren't too many issues!

Can we expect some more The Godfather or specifically Michael Corleone work from you and are there other films you're interested in right now? Your work is so remarkable and a true gift to all Pacino/De Niro lovers out there!

Actually yes <3 working on two pieces right now, I meant to do that last month but I was caught up by some irl things happening!

And of course, it's my biggest honor to be considered decino artist and I have so many ideas about more art I can make (I just need to whip myself and do them haha)!! Thank you so much for your support!!

Answered by Cyan
Hi there! I just wanted to say that I recently received my keychain orders from you and they were as incredible as I'd imagined, your work is truly something special !! I was wondering if you have any ideas/or want to create further prints or keychains for the 'Heat' film? Your work with Vincent and Neil is my favourite and I look forward to buying more from you! Thank you again :)))))))))

I AM SO HAPPY!! When I saw this notification I jumped out because I didn't expect them to get to customers yet (I wasn't the one fulfilling the orders and they only started like a week ago!) thank you so much for telling me you enjoyed everything!!

And omg, yes of course! Neil and Vincent are absolutely my favorites to draw, and I have lots of plans hehe (like enamel pins, more prints, etc.) and I am planning to do a fan comic about them that I can print out physical copies as well, and if I can make everything affordable I will definitely do all of them <3 Thank you again for this lovely ask and your support, it means everything to me!!

Answered by Cyan
I love your artstyle it's so yummy and it inspires me to draw. Also I was looking through your answered asks and you listed Leslie Cheung as one of your favorite hottest actors. If you ever make fanart of his movies, I will be very happy hehe (no pressure ofc).

OMG thank you so much!! Yes, I love Leslie and have loved him since I was a child T T... My mom is also a big fan of his and I remember learning about his passing from her as a child, I think he might be the first queer icon I know, so he's definitely super important to me! He is so very beautiful and I would LOVE to draw him one day, and I think the possibility of me doing that is high, since I've watched most of his movies and there are pairings I like too... <33

Answered by Cyan
hello!!!!!!! i love your art style very very much!!!!!!!!!! please keep doing what you do, you’re so cool aaaahhhhhhhhhh

who is this lovely person I see before me. Come over and get a big kiss from me on your cheek!

But seriously, thank you so much for your support!! Every time someone tells me they like my art, my finger grows one milimeter longer <3 <3

Answered by Cyan
When you will put up pathologic plushies for sale again, will there be you old keychains (with the healers and with three-fold bullet) as well?? They're so stylish!!

Yes!! Omg I didn't expect a patho ask I'm so happy :) I still have some leftovers, and I am thinking about potentially restocking them, because I still like these designs a lot! So maybe I'll keep them in stock like the other merchs too :)

Answered by Cyan
I saw you did HEAT (1995) characters, both Vincent Hanna and Neil McCauley. Thank you for these absolute gifts from heaven they look so cute for a movie so serious. Can you do another Micheal Mann movie by any chance? I was thinking Collateral (2004) with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx. Thanks!!!!

Thank you so much! I love Michael Mann verse haha...My favorites are the insider, heat, thief, and manhunter, I have to rewatch Collateral again, I don't remember too much about it because for some reason it didn't hit me as hard as his other movies did, but if I do get obsessed with one movie in the future I'd love to do some art for it :)

Answered by Cyan
Where do you get your inspiration from and who are your favourite artists?

There is another answered question about favorite artists, but about inspiration, I get it from the movies my fanarts are based off of, mainly! But I also watch tv series, anime, documentaries and read novels, and I think always being absorbed in creativity really makes my own do much better. Honestly I don't really have other interests other than this so I benefited from having creative things are all around me.

Answered by Cyan
Hi! I just followed your account today and saw that you were the artists who made all those cute Al Pacino keychains, etc. and I love them! But I was gonna ask when you might be making them available again?

Hello and welcome ♡ I'm so happy to hear you recognized my al keychains even outside of knowing my account! The pre-orders are closed, but I already submitted all the batch orders for all the products, so there will be some in stock soon (in like 1 or two weeks) for the keychains and plushies! (plushies will be available september and Prints next month) Thank you for your support!!

Answered by Cyan
Your website is amazing! Was this coded all by yourself? I would love to create something like this for my portfolio in the future. I also love how there’s a built in shipping calculator that is extremely useful.

Thank you so much!! Yes I did build it + coded some stuff (struggled really hard with it to be exact), but I think it's because Shopify is a lot easier to code and work with pre-build blocks!

For my work portfolio I used Squarespace and didn't touch any coding, but I think for a portfolio site that's definitely enough! Checking forums for pre-build coding instead of writing from scratch is highly recommend if you want to touch coding at all :)

I really appreciate you saying this because I did spend a lot of time on it (especially with coding, since I only know the basics of it) but it is fun to come up with ways to make it easier for customers like the shipping calculator haha. <3

Answered by Cyan
there is this wonderful Heat hockey Au fic on ao3 by rareviewmirror and i thought you might enjoy it quite a bit (if you haven’t read it yet :P ). honestly while reading through it i could just imagine your art ps, i adore the way you draw vincent and neil and their dynamic!!

Haha yes I have! Heat fandom is so small that we are all part of The Family, so I was very lucky to be there when Atlas was writing this fic (and got to read the first drafts! I got to watch Mona Lisa got painted) He is so talented to come up with an au for this pairing that is so different from canon (same with the coffeeshop au) yet so compelling to read with awesome characterization...

I think drawing hocky/athletes in general is my ankle of Achilles, I am very not a sports guy (even after watching heated rivalry I still can't understand hockey), but my friend ghost (@GhostBerry__) has done awesome art for this fic and a great Heat 1995 artist, if you haven't checked her art out <3

Answered by Cyan
Will the Heat charm included as a gift with the plushies be available to purchase normally at all?

They are not available right now because I ordered the same amounts as the heat plushies and I don't want the gift ones to run out, but after the pre-order is done, I'll put the other ones up once I have them in stock :)

Answered by Cyan
First of all, i love your art so so much! You made me want to pick up drawing again after not doing so in so long!! Do you have any tips on how to improve drawing skills? (In general or personally what you did!)

You're so sweet and I am so glad I can make you want to draw!! I am always open if you want to talk about art (because I love yapping + talking about art with other artists) I have a lot of thoughts on different things, and I think there's not a universal tip to art making...but something that helped me a lot is to know struggling with making art is natural, because making something from scratch would always be filled with a lot of trials and errors. That is to say, to spend time on fundamentals like figure drawing, color studies, etc. would make a lot of struggles easier because they are essentially like muscle memories (I used to do a lot of them and I always see visible improvement, even if now I don't do them anymore they still help me massively)

And lastly, remember to always draw things you love!

Answered by Cyan
I love your art so much!!! I was wondering if there would be the possibility of a keychain from and justice for all? Al Pacino in that movie is absolutely awesome

Thank you so much! <3 UGH I LOVEEEE arthur...my boy...yes I think I just have to do it <3 because Iwant one too...

Answered by Cyan
Who are your artistic influences?

I LOVE love love art by Gennady Novozhilov, the way he design all the shapes and the textures in his art are just. SO good! I Also adore John Singer Sargent, Yoshitaka Amano, Austin Briggs, Hieronymus Bosch, aubrey beardsley...I love a lot of works from japanese mangaka like
Hiromu Arakawa and Q Hayashida...there are so many I wish I can name them all!

Also, I love love a lot of art from my friends too, it's honestly insane I get to talk with these great artists :) talking to artists who are super inspiring really influenced me just as much!

Answered by Cyan
SCARECROOW🥳🥳🥳 THE BESY MOVIE EVER ‼️ what do you think of it??

I'm so happy there are lots of Scarecrow lovers...Genuinely such an emotional movie, that I'm a bit scared of to watch again because I got so sad and heart broken near the end haha. Lion might be one of the cutest al characters EVER, ugh! In fact I got angry at Gene Hackman's character because of the sheer fact that he could resist how cute he is.

Answered by Cyan
What software do u use to draw and also what brushes do u use 🤔💭

I use Procreate! I have an ipad pro and I added a paperlike film + amazon ballpoint pen tip (I only did it last month, but it's so much better than the original tip, lol!)

For brushes, my absolute favorite painting brush is RizzCraft , it's basically an imitation brushset for riso texture, and I love it because I think painting with a textured brush is always so much easier and looks more natural adding textures after (but I do add Infinity Pulp Overlay sometimes for realistic paper texture). For lines, I use the default Procreate Pencil.

I do use some other True Grit brush sets if I need different texture to render specific things, and I bought all of these brushsets on black friday sale! I recommend doing that instead of buying full price :)

I love ur art

awww!! Thank you!! Here is a big kiss on your cheek ⊹.(⸝⸝ ˆ ³(⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎)˚.

Answered by Cyan
Godfather siblings as keychains Maybe?👀

This is insane i thought about it yesterday watching part II! I want to figure out how to do it because they are 5 people.

Maybe I can make a linked charm (they will be in age chronical orders) or maybe do an enamel pin instead, because making an enamel pin is my Dream since i was so small, and I think in the future doing a pin set for the godfather would be wonderful (that is, if I can control the cost so they are still very affordable)

Answered by Cyan
Would you consider making a Carlitos Way keychain since he’s a very underrated character from Al Pacino

I love Carlito!! Charlie <3 I definitely want to, and I did sketch a chibi of him and Gail when I did the original al chibis, so maybe in the future I can make some other fav al characters into keychains <3

Answered by Cyan
Hiii!! I absolutely LOVE your Al Pacino art! I was just wondering if you were planning on making more Godfather merch in the future :3?

Thank you! the timing is amazing because I'm experimenting some ways to do fan arts...and I wanna try to focus on a film once a month so I can go in depth in my obsession haha. I just watched the Godfather part ii again and it made me cry so hard...so I'm making some godfather related art at the moment!

Hopefully by the end of it, I'll have some good ideas or works. If any of the art looks suitable for merchs, I'll definitely open an interest check <3

Answered by Cyan
Will you open commissions one day...

to be totally honest I don't think I can since I work full time already and I'm not good at doing commissions, usually because the art I post online are only about things I love + I feel like when I draw things I am not that knowledgeable on I am not confident on if I can make them good. But I appreciate people are interested in comms from me :)

Answered by Cyan
casino 1995 plushies,, drools

Which one out of the five of you is saying this!! I wish I can make an Ace one to be honest, but to be more honest I think I'll go broke first, because I have to do 100 plushies an order to bulk produce them and I think I know all of you who is a little bit insane about Ace Rothstein!

To be honest I'm also a little bit worried about copyright haha. Since um I am working in the company that owns the license to Casino and I have the irrational fear they might see an absurdly cute ace rothstein doll on my desk and go Cease and Desist

Answered by Cyan
hottest actors and other fave ships? 😎

Oh man I find so many actors/actresses hot haha. If I had to pick absolute favorites-

Actors: Al Pacino + Robert De Niro (obviously), Leslie Cheung, Keanu Reeves, james duval, other ones i'm a bit shy to share but I had a crush on Kristen Stewart as a teen.

Ships: I don't usually get all in with ships unless I'm head deep in the water obsessed with them, so it has been mchanna only for quite a while. Some other non-decino ships I've drawn more than once are gallavich and hollanov which are some of the best queer stories. I actually think about crack ships that no one even cares like some decino ones and some weird ones like Michael Corleone x Virgil sollozzo

Answered by Cyan
Hi I love your art! Are you planning on making plushies for other Pacino/Deniro characters in the future?

The next plushie that I want to make is Sonny Wortzik plushie (that I think I will definitely make!) And I don't have any other ones that is in the 'definitely' list right now, but some possible ones are Michael + Vito, Serpico (with attachable alfie), and even non decino ones like Chris Shiherlis and horror movie plushies.

Answered by Cyan
I think I notice what the mystery sticker is for the Pacino pack!! Do you think you'll ever make a keychain of it? Or perhaps if you have any ideas for Scarecrow prints, I'd definitely get one!

I'm so happy you guessed what it is! They are so cute right? I would always love to make more keychains, but I'll have to choose which ones to make depending on interests sadly - Maybe in the future I can draw more serious arts for that movie and can do specific movie drops!
