About Me

  • Call me Rui (Roo-ee) / 芮 / 如意

  • 27-year-old Chinese Malaysian

  • I like Journey to the West, Ne Zha, and Beijing Opera

  • I studied 3D animation and practice martial arts

  • My gongfu is drawing fan art and animation

BYF

  • All my art is SFW.

  • I currently draw a lot of The Long Walk fanart.

  • I sometimes draw blood and tasetul stuff.

  • I'm more comfortable following people back on Tumblr.

  • My Journey to the West fanart has no connection to the Lego show. Please understand that it's annoying when people leave comments on my art referencing a different version of the characters.

  • I consider master-disciple relationships to be akin to parent-child relationships.

  • Never ask for my permission to do anything related to JTTW. You can ask for my opinions, but not my permission; do not burden me with your actions.

  • Do not take my knowledge and opinions on martial arts as facts. Every practitioner has different combat philosophies.

DNI

  • Proship.

  • It's okay to leave comments on my art thirsting after fictional characters, as long as you don't describe anything sexual.

  • I prefer if you don't infantilize Sun Wukong by calling him your "boy" under my art. He's an 800+ year old demon who calls himself Old Sun and has monkey grandchildren.
