I'm pretty friendly and will add anybody, unless you're a creepy stalker, in which case GTFO.

If you're already on my f-list IGNORE THIS, durrrr.

Art/Fic posts will almost always be public.

:3 So usually, I've got this artists block thing going on whereaaaaaaaaaaaaaffhjkhkj tiny little 100lb cat paw digging into stomach you can't sit there cat aaauuuuugh my boobs are not a launching paddddd

Um. Anyway - usually, I've got this art block thing where it's like I've forgotten how to use a pencil and I'd have better results if I just crapped all over the page - you get what I mean. And then sometimes, SOMETIMES, rarely but sometimes, you draw something, and everything comes out easy and the way you want it too and it looks amazing and it's like you're riding a sparkling rainbow unicorn through the sky on those days.

Well yesterday was one of those days.



( Next time I'll tell you about my ROMANTIC dream! )

This time it's LAW~ ♥



Once again the full version is on my dA :D

I dun know too much about this guy yet. He's cool, though!

(p.s. anybody know of a good fanart community for One Piece?)

I'm in a good mood because I drew something and not only did it not SUCK, but I'm actually fond of it! ....give it a few more hours, then I'll probably despise it.



The full version of the finished product is on my deviantART. Go look! ♥ ♥ ♥

Other things lately:

-One Piece, if the above didn't make it obvious. I'm caught up to the anime in Japan (almost...) and it's asfgdkasl;df;hsd;; ♥! So much awesomeness. This is my favorite show of all time.

-These stupid little online flash games where all you do is click and shit: Like this fighting game or this one where you raise a dinosaur...thing. Pointless? Yes. Addictive? Absolutely.

-Math: Summer classes start on monday! Shitshitshit! I have some major reviewing to do. >_>'

-Sleep: Still going to bed to late! Habit! Although it's getting better, and I'm doing more to change it than I ever was in the past. :D So yey.


Aaand um, there so much other stuff going on that's just slipped my mind at the moment. I'mma gonna sleep now.

Another productive day in class! I finished the villain's character sheet and got started on my rough pages. While working at the pace of snail, but still, I got stuff done. (of course, the more urgent essay and math homework is still unfinished...shut up! this is important too!)

That comic project for school? Believe it or not, I'm actually working on it. Main character has a pretty solid design and the villain is shaping up quite nicely as well. My next step is to do panel layouts for the actual pages. Probably, after I get that done, everything will be moving a lot faster.

The plot is still shaky, but I've decided just to concentrate on the part of it that needs to be turned in for class. In one sentence, I can sum it up like this: College-aged boy is the missing factor in a secret society's plot to dominate the earth using the powers of the ancient gods. Of course, there's more to it than that, but that's how I've been explaining it to people. I'll tell more if there's an interest, but I don't want to give too much away before the actual thing is drawn, that tends to make me lose my motivation...somehow.

ANYHOW

So yeah, new friends, old friends, hello! You might not believe this but...I did art again. (note to self: If you're serious about the whole "english major" thing, you have got to stop defaulting to LOLspeak all the time.)

Under the cut.

I'm starting to realize these sketchbook dumps are also a way to draw attention to the fact that I don't draw as much as I used to. >_> Or haven't been lately, at least.

ANYWAY! Third in the series, this time it's the most recent sketchbook! (next to the two current ones) This one was started on the 22nd of August, 2008, and finished on Thanksgiving of the same year. Making it probably my fastest ever filled, especially considering that it's 150 pages. Also, it has the distiction of being a "Chunky Pad" "made for little hands" ...aka, a kid's sketchbook for 2 years and up. We started carrying it at work! I get 30% off! it's the cheapest sketchbook I ever bought!



MOVING FORWARD!

( pictures within )

Number 22 is up! We're moving backwards. xD



In this batch we have inappropriate chibis, lots of Zell, and more!

Number 22 began on 3/5/07 and ended on 2/25/08, making it the sketchbook for my last year of high school and the first semester of college.

Let's begin.

( Sketchbook #22 )

And...that's it! Thanks!

Written very quickly for  azura_pasha 's challenge over at es21_yaoi  . Go visit, and populate it with more Shin/Sena to make her happy! (and me ♥)

Honestly, though, I can't believe I wrote this. I never write things! Granted, it's not proofread and even as I post this i'm getting hot flashes of "agh, agh, my writing is terrible, why am I posting this" but I've learned to disregard that voice...for the most part. Anyway, here's the fic.

Just This, Just That
Pairing: Shin/Sena
Rating: PG
Summary: Seijuro Shin loved the morning. Sena did, too

Well, this is something I've been meaning to do for a while now. And since it's the new year, what better time to actually follow through on the things I told myself I'd do?

Most of my drawing is done in sketchbooks, which I've kept continually since the end of my 6th grade year (2000, I would have been 11). Most of it's crap, unfinished, etc...but there are a few things I thought worth sharing. So, my goal is to post from all 26 sketchbooks I've had at this point. Hence the title - the sketches below are from book #23, chosen as the guinea pig because it was easy to scan.

There probably won't be any order to this, and it's very unlikely there will be anything in sketchbooks 1-5 worth sharing (trust me.) and I might combine some of them...but anyway. It's a helpful way for me to look back and see how I've improved (or not).

Oh...and as is usual with me, there will be commentary. Probably more than you care to read. Again, it's more for my sake. I'm sure i'm not the only one who can look at their old doodles, even the crappy 5-second ones and remember the whole situation behind it. This is me writing those down so I won't forget later. :D



As stated before, this is Sketchbook #23. I started it in February of 2008 and finished it in August of 2008. My first year of college at the community level.

( To #23! )

I do love me the caps lock.

AAARGH I never update this thing wtf. Anyway. Recently:

School is out. Grades have yet to be posted online (I think, haven't checked in a week or so) but I already know what I got: Two A's and an F. Or, more realistically, it's probably one A, one B, and one F. I have really weird standards of schoolwork, I think, to try so hard in one class and not at all in the other.

Work has been going OK as usual. I don't think I'm in danger of getting fired, but you never know. At least I've got that fat christmas check coming next friday. I thought it was this friday, and Jackson looked at me strangely when I walked into the store demanding money.

Today I went shopping with Lacey and she basically bullied me into buying Tekken 5. -o-;; but I love it, and she knows it. Hwoaaaaraaang. I suck really bad at fighting games. But I love them so.

Speaking of things I love,

Anderson Cooper.


At Christmas I discovered that unreasonable love for well-spoken, squeaky clean, might-be-gay TV reporters runs in the family! My aunt is a fan of him as well. We bonded through excited squealing and jumping up and down, much to the dismay of her husband and my OTHER aunt.

( ART! AND MORE ART! )

Just two, sketches colored in photoshop.

First one is....*sigh*. High School Musical. I know, I know. I hate myself for it.

( The boys are back, yeaaah, the boys are back )

And then! Zuko!

( It's Zuko! )
