Yo! Welcome to my Crib 😎

☆ Other than trying to not be discovered by the government, I'm just trying to improve my work and chill, you know?
★ I do tend to post things with bright colors or spooky themes sometimes, so if that's not your jam, you might not like it here... :(

Questions that nobody asked
Username/Account
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Where does your username come from? | - Jolt + electrify! I've found that a lot of people pronounce it "Jolt-ri-fee", but no- It's pronounced "Jolt-ri-fai". |
| What happened to your old persona/ Accounts? | - We don't talk about it. I'm sure if you dig through the internet you'll find one of them. ;) |
Art / Origins
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How long does it take for you to get a piece done? | - Depends. Aside from me getting up every 2 seconds to do something, it takes me around 2-4 hours- sometimes more, sometimes less. I tend to spread out the process over a couple of days- one day I'll do the sketch/ Lineart, the next I'll do... everything else. I like having that gap in-between the process so that I can fix things that look a bit wonky. |
| How long have you been drawing? | - As of February 2021, only about 5 years. |
| Why does your style sometimes look...different? | - There's a clone of me with a Gun pointed at my head 24/7. If I don't improve, I know for a FACT that I would not Hesitate to pull the trigger. |
| What's your Favorite thing to draw? | - Legs , Torso, hands... anything that isn't arms! As for painting- Lips, eyes, or anything glow-y that has a "BANG!", you know? Really dirty/muggy things can occasionally be my strong suit. |
| Least Favorite? | - Least favorite...? Arms, just in general. I can never get them right... Perspective drawings are difficult too ;m; In terms of painting, it's gotta be gold. It never looks as natural as I want it to (Not that my art looks "natural", anyway.) |
| Will you introduce your Ocs? What's their backstory? | - Yes..? I have their world mostly planned out- Still got a lot of work to do, but the groundwork is secure! |
| Where can I see your work? | I post most, if not all my work on tumblr! |
| Will you post your animations? | -Soon. I'm still very, VERY rusty. |
| Why did you start drawing? | - When I was younger, I loved Ben 10, Transformers, and Pokémon, and I really wanted to make fanart for them! Every Ben 10 series holds a place dear in my heart, and Every Transformers comic I've read has done the same. I wouldn't be who I am without them. |
| Favorite Ben 10 Alien? | - From the originals, I really like Heatblast, XLR8, and Diamondhead! In Alien Force, Big Chill and Water Hazard, and in Omniverse, Feedback- 100%. (Wildmutt, WayBig, Ditto, and Echo Echo are honorable mentions~) |
| Favorite Transformers Comic/ Character? | I was obsessed with MTMTE and Lost Light, as well as the IDW Windblade comics- I remember the art being so gorgeous in every panel, and I really want to reread them again someday! My favorite characters? Soundwave, Perceptor, Brainstorm and Drift are up there, no doubt... But I also really had a thing for IDW Blurr... (Hardcore Tf fans will shame me for this but like... HAVE YOU SEEN HIM??) |
Use
What's your current Art Status?

May I Use your work?
I'm flattered you would want to! However...
PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE ASK + CREDIT OR LINK ME IF YOU PLAN TO:
Repost on an art accountUse a piece for an edit (once again, very flattered!)Use a piece as reference (only for composition- I'd very much prefer that you not copy any characters/designs if it is not fanart.)
-- > You don't have to ask- let alone credit- for phone/desktop wallpapers, but i would be very happy to know who's whack enough to use my art for it lol
Well well well… It looks like we've got a detective on our hands.
While I would compliment you on your success, this is a very sketchy area. You never know what might be lurking around the corner...*
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Are you really an alien? | - Good question.* |
| What Planet Are you from? | - Wow, Another great question!* |
| What's it like in space? | - I have a terrible memory so I can't recall much, and I know that humans may experience space differently, but I remember it being cold. I hate the cold.* |
| Are you a heater, or do you have cold bones? | - Sadly, I have very cold bones. This can be useful in warmer weather, and it's usually easier to take care of them being warm all the time, but I still dislike the cold. |
| Favorite Planet? | - In the milky way, It would have to be Neptune! I remember choosing to do a report on it when I was in 3rd grade, and I fell in love with it ever since. How ironic, considering it's the coldest planet. |
| Do... do you prefer the heat over the cold? | No, actually. |
| What's the best time of day? | - I love Dusk and Dawn- they're my favorite times do to their muggy/mysterious nature, and they're really nice to both work and relax. Golden hours, the time before/after those are lovely too. |
| Early Bird or Night Owl? | - Both. I wake up at 4:30 during weekdays- not because I have to, I just want to. That's when I seem to get the most stuff done anyways. As of late, I've been prone to sleeping in though... |
| Coffee or Tea? | - Most certainly Tea! I deeply apologize to those who do like coffee, but it just isn't for me- I don't find the taste to be in my favor (even with sugar/crème). |
| Favorite Earth Season? | - Early Summer + Late Summer and Early to Mid Fall! |
| Colors? | - Once again, I really like Summer n Fall colors! As you've probably noticed, there's a constant theme of Orange and Blue in my... everything. More specifically, I like Aquamarine and Peach/Orange Crème in just about any saturation~ (Another instance of Irony, since I used to LOATHE the color orange.) |
| Fruits? | - Peaches! I also like oranges, mangoes, blackberries, blueberries... My entire life surrounds this orange and blue theme istg- (although cucumbers are also very very good and definitely one of my favorites) |
| Foods in general? | - Ahh, that's hard.. I like lots of food... LOTS of food... probably a dish from my home country. |
| Penguin of Madagascar? | I love all of them, but Kowalski takes the cake. It's honestly hard to decide who would be in second place. |
| What's your MBTI/ Enneagram? | As stupid and enthusiastic as I may sound, I have concluded that I am an INTP (after wasting much time on researching it)! For Enneagram, I am a 9w1 (tritype 954- 9w1, 5w4, 4w3). I really don't like thinking about this kind of stuff though- personalities vary and are very versatile, self diagnosis isn't very reliable, and aside from the very strange time I was keen on learning about these subjects, I don't care too much about them. (At least... I try not to care about them ;m;) I remember someone stating that MBTI explains how you think, and Ennagram explains why you think that way- and I feel that's a reasonable conclusion to come to! |
| What other hobbies do you have? | - I'm pretty basic, but I have many! I like to read/ write (especially the latter), crochet, knit, cook, bake, do origami(?), (learning how to) play piano, roller-skate, and go on walks! I wish I had the time to do everything more frequently... |
| Do you prefer Knitting or Crocheting? | - Funny thing- I learned crocheting before I learned knitting, but the first actual thing I made (a very loose looped scarf that I still have to this day) was knitted! I made it when I was around 8, and since it was the first thing that I found successful, I decided that I liked knitting better. Recently though I read an article that knitting actually takes longer than crocheting- and although I didn't want to believe it, all of a sudden knitting felt so much more tiring than crocheting. ANYWAY- I like both- but while knitting hits closer to home, it can be more tiring than crocheting ;w; |
| What's the most beloved thing you've Knitted/crocheted? | - I made @nine's monsters concept of Jonathan's toy into a reality- and I love them sooo much- they're too cute!! I also made a cardigan to go with it- the first one I've ever made :3 (well, I actually made the Cardigan before I made the Star- but ehhh that doesn't mattterrrr) |
| How the hell do you pronounce Asaunnei's name? | - Aw- Saw- nee, lol! He's named after one of my distant "relatives". |
| Can I chat with you about ____? | - Sure! HOWEVER, that chat may not be a long one- if it's about something I don't want to talk about, well- I may just tell you that I don't want to talk about it. |
| Is there another mystery I perhaps have yet to solve? | Hmm, Possibly... |
| Oh! and if you've happen to make it this far, why not let me know? I'm sure together we could spark a very interesting conversation.... |
*I hope you enjoy my silly dedication to this bit. But, if there's one thing I try to never do , it's lie- there IS another mystery to be solved, and let's just say it's twice as hard...
Corner Store
Oh! Um... I hate to tell you this, but we're currently closed! Renovations and stuff... You know how it is.
"However, Since you're here...
Legend has it that there's a secret 5th section in the City district revealing answers to more questions.
The area is a bit sketchy, and the questions are quite bizarre... You have to do a bit of "editing" to the current location to get there.
I wouldn't know if that's true or not though-
I'm just a humble architect."
