I just finished reading Inuyasha :| ;-; beautiful.
I was on Kagome's side from the beginning 8D so I'm pleased all turned out suspiciously the way I wanted it to.
Rumiko's short nonsense strips towards the end also cracked me up XD especially the bits saying "Rumiko loves me...that's why I'm not dead" and the Naraku rape stare thing and especially Jaken's and Shippou's conversation about SessRin etc. lmfao crazy fangirls. @-@

That manga honestly took ages to read too...I mean I started watching the anime yeaaaars ago, forgot about it then decided to start from the beginning on the Manga until I remembered where I left off. (However I've always loved Ranma 1/2 more since the Inu-anime got boring too quickly...probably because it was dubbed.) Secretly I would have been happy for even a Kouga-kagome pairing (highly unlikely plot I know but that wimpy wolf was kinda cute when he got the chance to be and Inuyasha's two timing forever irked me.

I wish I could muster the courage to make decent fanart -impossible- felt like drawing almost every panel of the manga...it was seamless ._.;

Rumiko...sama...you are king *o*

Mentions:
Kagura touched my heart but now she is as free as the wind~
Sesshoumaru's personality sucks hehe


Apart from that, yep I kinda regret catching up to Naruto Shippuden and I prefer the anime to the manga sadly so. lalala-la-la. Lately I've just been staring at :iconkaze-hime:'s gallery wanting to give my right arm to attain her powers pfft lol; I could swear when you look at someone's gallery that only contain their best work, you instantly forget the chance that they at one point in time used to be complete and utter n00bs. (highly doubt she ever was though) XD Then again I'm capable in my own n00bie way too, fight da powaar! @_@ ///////

OMGodzilla, I started using ratemydrawing.com (drawing community with flash/java drawing tools ) again after 4 years!
I can't believe how I could leave that place for so long because it is so much fun :iconawwwplz: love the flash app, java is cool because layers rock and my pen pressure works on it! XD

I drew the lovely Yomi using the flash board [link] (it shows animated playback) 8D the fill tool is fun to use, compare it to my old attemp from my old account on there: [link] GROSS LOL

Recently I drew Cardcaptor Sakura (on the java board which doesn't have animated playback) I love her little costumes C: [link] and Naruto's there somewhere too; 8D

Although the traffic is so-so at certain times, I like how you get random people giving nice comments and some of them are really good artists (makes me feel weird that these awesome artists comment XD probably because the traffic is...not crazy?)

I'm a little addicted so my fingers keep hurting at the end of each picture;; but yay rmd has been good lately 8D any one else use it?

I think my brain will end up bleeding/fingers and hand paralysis, losing sleep over trying to make more arts and improve hardcore ;-; doesn't work fuuuuuuu;;;

looks at nami-kun's stuff: gjhjhk
looks at hitsu's stuff: njkshlefhapweh
looks at yuumei stuff: ._.
looks at....list runs down to 6 or more

I'm going to tackle my noobiness some other way...apart from the fact I have been extremely impatient with everything hehehe...oh well x_x...need inspiration and motivation...again

Meh I'm considering un-abandoning one of my accounts to use as a scrap account for experiments etc.etc.etc.
***
I'm going to take this opportunity to postpone my DA activity (again?) and go back to the basics of using pencil, pen and paper to:

1. Discover my stupid drawing style
2. Break out of stupid bad habits
3. Improve a stupid lot...yeah, that one doesn't really work.

Bye guys, I'll miss you ;;;_;;; I hope I don't fail...because I won't want to show my face ever again and hide in my emo corner :iconomgwtfbbqplz:

(Dear inactive/uninterested watchers, please unwatch me, I feel pressured for having over 200 inactive-ish watchers;;; ...unless you've been banned, are lazy or for some reason love me too much to leave me LOL j/kj/k)
I had no patience and watched all the way to 172 n_n <3
%
by searching up Tobi from Akatsuki/Naruto Shippuden. TuT What is my life?
Any way I've started watching Naruto Shippuden again and am obviously way behind on it XD just...what is with Kishimoto

Don't ask I just adored Tobi so much haha he's hilarious.

If you're behind (100 episodes or  more) on Naruto Shippuden a little like myself, please don't search up Tobi and we all be able to live ok? XD Unless I've read it wrong, it is definitely not worth searching him up! Especially if you hate spoilers.
(I'm up to episode 125 atm if you know what that even is...)

Um I should be sleeping...

"Anyone can draw manga" "It's not really art" I'm sure most of us have heard things like this said before and a lot of the time can understand may have felt disheartened by other peoples comments and opinions.

Let me start by saying, what a load of BS. To the ones who draw manga and have been affected by the things that were said to them. What was the initial reason you started to draw manga? Was it because you thought it'd make a great career? Did you want to make lots of money? Impress other people? Or just liked it?

I'm not wondering at all about why people say it's not art because whatever the status I still like drawing in the style of manga. I'm bored of arguing and having to listen to people moan.

I was remembering one of my teacher's telling me: "they can do that with their eyes shut" 'they' being some university art teacher and 'that' being: drawing manga.

Allow me to leave you with a few thoughts.

There are people in the world who are genuinely just concerned for you when you make the decision to draw manga and other people who are purely ignorant. Like my teacher who was impressed by one little filter I added to one of my pictures as an experiment. ...yeah I know.

Half the time someone who is skilled with drawing real life figures and faces may have a great chance of making manga work for themselves or if they wanted to prove a point. Other times it's just off. You can tell someone is not used to drawing Manga though they have the skills. With time that can change of course.

I also think it's very silly to assume that someone who draws manga won't be able to draw real people. No...you're either good at drawing in general or you're not but some things definitely require practice and understanding.


Also guys. If it's money that you're really after then do quit drawing manga and go splatter some paint or shit on a canvas, modern art is really raking it in.

kthxbai.

I love love LOVE bento inspired food art <3<3

There are some awesome basic and easy tutorial here: [link]

C: Hope you'll enjoy them, I definitely will

Some of my favourites are:

1. Mario Mushroom: [link]
2. Chocolate Totoro: [link] This doesn't even have written steps but it's soooo easy to understand!!
3. Chocolate covered Domokun: [link] Awwwww, so creepily cute!

This is definitely my fav: [link] It's a tutorial on making egg sheet, very simple and such a great base to start with to make any flat designs of things like cartoon faces for example:

Super Mario: [link]
Awesome Lady: [link]


I'm going to try to figure out how to colour the egg sheets by myself hehe ouo but I think you can buy them too


Ahh <3
  • Listening to: Lavender Town
but not going to buy one because I obviously do not have a working paypal anymore o.o or even a card. Erm

:iconhitsukuya: Hitsukuya's new Art Book 'Pekoe Pekoe' looks tempting, I would pass on the membership and maybe scrape something together for it because well membership is kinda of useless and uninspiring if that makes sense. The guest artwork sounds really cool too ouo

I'm curious though, those guys like Hitsu and Kaze-hime and so on are all awesome Canadian artists who have met at their Canadian anime con's and greeted eachother very Canadian-like...


I wonder about my UK peoples, I don't think I know many good UK anime/asian inspired artists or anything nor have I any of those kinds or friends.

I'll just move to Canada ouo

Cancelled because we found an affordable enough tablet for her 8D It's being shipped to my address because there are no additional costs to ship to UK, I'm sending it to her when I get it? ;D



I want to help a friend earn some money towards an affordable but good Drawing Tablet. So I'm starting some pen sketch commissions...5 characters on A4 for £6.50+free shipping.

Goal: £40-£50 (depending on stock/prices available) C: Please do request some sketches for a good cause! C:

One of her artworks of Seo Taiji appeared on a Korean magazine (she uploaded it to SeoTaiji.com journalist spotted it apparently) and it is quite popular with Seo Taiji fans. It'd be nice to give her a chance to explore her artistic skills further with Digital art ;c as she is really keen on it.

:thumb150406689:

Also erm btw if you don't know who Seo Taiji is then you're not allowed to call yourself a Kpop fan :| GO LEARN YOUR KOREAN MUSIC HISTORY LOL.


Thanks for reading C:

Feeling so sad in a helpless way but it's not a bad thing because it reminds me that I'm human

The sketches are all finished, they're not the best but they're finished

I am going to release each of them in the descending order that I drew them (so last to first)

Unfortunately I haven't finished the first sketch I was meant to upload before these but that will be finished sooner or later.

After all five pictures have been released on five Saturdays, I will release a Christmas picture on the 25th!

So unless I forget to upload all five "only boys" sketches and the Christmas picture or am unable to access DA for any reason then this is just so you know that these are my intentions. (:

Thanks for reading

I'm using Stash on DA

Journal Entry: Wed Oct 26, 2011, 1:03 PM


And the first thing I've stashed is a christmas-y picture. I finished it today at work >u< it's not very good, the psd needs a lil tweaking.

I didn't really plan to draw for holidays or draw in general but my boss seemed to ask me to draw stuff for his website and stuff :/ and he wants more pictures for different seasons eghhh

Also I figured out a awesome way to paint leaves! It makes a tree look so enchanted ouo not a very special technique but it's good still!

Wow...that was dumb

Journal Entry: Fri Sep 23, 2011, 5:43 AM


I made a whole tutorial on some random youtube view increaser wtf lol what was the point of something so long

Urgh I'm trying so hard to accumulate different promoting tactics for my future projects...so far I've got over 1k on one of my vids. One of my goal is to generate over 600 views in less than 12 hours on the first day of uploading a youtube vid....I'm almost there lol, figured out a plan ; D

Alright so any one out there who is a Youtuber who wants to promote their videos easier? Use the links below, I've tried and tested them all and have to say they are fairly decent.

View Count - after sign up, click the earn free credits link and install the firefox add on. Once installled, click the small arrow beside the addon and select watch and input your User ID to start it.

Enhance Views


If you sign up to a few more of these and assign credits to one video all at the same time it's more effective because with using only one of the services the max amount of views you can generate is approx 100 per day...


There is one more link I want to share which is good but the site is currently in construction...I really want people to sign up to it, even thought they won't do anything with it so I can earn referral credit...the only one that gives you credit instantly! I need it >.< I would be so grateful too...later

Feel bad

Journal Entry: Sat Sep 3, 2011, 4:08 PM


I don't feel right for announcing I was quitting drawing...even if it was what I felt like saying.

The honest thing is I have lost interest in drawing and updating my DA through submission but other than that I believe that you can't dismiss something for just that reason and instead I should think of it in another  way:

If I ever feel like drawing something then I will. I will draw because I want to and not because I feel pressured to do it or I need to make some sort of life decision on the basis I think "drawing is the only thing I'm good at". Which is not true, I don't want to do something just because I think I'm "good at it."

So I look forward to giving my time to DA when I can and hope you will enjoy hearing from me productively someday.

Plus, guys please don't hold back on any comments, I feel like shit when I don't hear from you. (Uploading art is an excuse to get to know people for me personally)

I like K-Pop...

"I like K-Pop"...there I said it ;-; I've been listening to Hot Issue by 4 Minute on repeat for the last few weeks and doing the dance routines too *saddo* XD <3 and omg these girls have to be my favourite YouTube dance covering group. They call themselves the "B-Girls" and are a bunch of highschool girls from South Korea, dancing to K-Pop music. They are sooo good!

My favourite by them so far is their cover of "Hate you" dance by 2PM [link] um I kind of like the song now, never heard it before watching the cover.

The MASSIVE London Riot

Journal Entry: Wed Aug 10, 2011, 11:45 AM


For the past few days, several towns in my city; London fell victim to riots and looting. IT WAS FUCKING SCARY. Even my own town came under attack by a bunch of criminals. It branched outside of London reaching Birmingham! Wtf?? No longer making it just the London Riot. Several stores and businesses were robbed, places burned down, helicopters and sirens going off endlessly.

It started off in the town of Tottenham, just under 3 miles away from my home town Walthamstow, where people were doing a peaceful protest. Then a man named Mark Duggan was shot dead by a police officer (I'm told that he shot at the police first but the bullet hit their radio) from then the riots started with full force and a bunch of youths fought back at authority. Yet what I don't understand is why it spread beyond this single town. Police were outnumbered and everything got out of hand. A lot of these looters had no shame whatsoever. They stole things like Plasma TV's, shoes/trainers, bags of BASMATI RICE?!?!?

I go to college in Tottenham. -.- it was apparently a dangerous town before...say a couple of people I know. I've never had any problems there myself. However one of the news journalist already quoted it as the 2nd poorest in London. People have lost their homes because someone burned them down.

My hate for our Prime Minister is still the same. He's quite the little twat who doesn't know how to resolve the problem.
People are always going to blame him ever since he took control of this country. People believe he is singling out the youth by taking away certain funds and allowing fees for University to sore as high as £9000 a year, not to mention to take away things like benefits from the elderly, people out of work (unable to work) job seekers and students. He believes that students don't even need these specific funds (you get them per week for costs towards things like travel, study equipment etc.) I doubt he can tell that the small majority of youths involved in these criminal activity does NOT mean that we the "youths" are all criminals too.


Everyone I know seem to want the ARMY to come in fix the situation urgh, this is stupid and DEPRESSING that all of it had to happen.

Currently there have been no threats reported in my town. There is just too much to even write about on this subject.

There are several facebook "Like" pages trying to lighten peoples mood on the events lol...like "Looting your gal some fresh weave because you think she's the one" or "Not  rioting in London because you're a decent fucking citizen"...ah's I refused to sleep at one point ==
