about

she/they | 25↑ | sagittarius


I am currently going by Max but Nel always works, since it is short for nelhein.

The most basic things about me are that I like to draw and I love my cats.

I'm a busy graphic designer who has less and less time to spend on my online hobbies and character creation. but I still exist on the internet in some smallish capacity and that's good enough, i think.

Support LGBTQIA.

faq

Okay so maybe these aren't FREQUENTLY asked, but I get the same repeat questions enough that I'm tired of answering them individually, so here they are!


+ Why do you change your name / usernames / alias so much?

Well friend I dont like my real name and I never have but I dont feel comfortable “naming” myself something else so I just choose whatever sounds nice until i dont identify with that moniker any longer.

I have, however, been using the username / handle nelhein for like 6 years now.


+ What does "nelhein" mean?

This answer is complicated and not incredibly exciting but in short: it doesn't mean anything. It's basically made up and it only means something to me.

Although I do like that it sounds like "helheim", the Norse realm of Hel.


+ What do you use to draw?

Currently a combination of Photoshop CC and Procreate on my iPad Pro with an Apple Pencil and my own tears. I used to exclusively use Sai and a Wacom Intuos Pen & Touch but Wacoms die really fast.

I also sometimes sketch just with pencil and paper like the cavemen did.


+ Why don't you have your age listed?

Well I'm pretty sure I listed why already but I do get asked this still. I FEEL like I'm still 24 but my real age is between 25 and 35 and my brain is not coping well with that.

When you're older than 25 but younger than 40, the years blend together and the year milestones get cloudy and they don't matter. Your sense of time becomes warped. Everything happened "a few years ago" no matter how long it's been. You find that no one has ever "grown up", they've just all gotten older and that adulthood is a MYTH.

Trust me.


+ Will you draw (a thing) for me?

Short answer: Yes, but for money.

I am too poor and too busy to draw for free if its not to fulfill my own weird desires so I would encourage you to ask for my prices or go to my commissions page if I ever make one and link it to here. (paypal USD only)


+ Will you make me (insert thing here)?

Short answer: Probably, but for money. See above answer.
