Ah ok xD
Not too bad, I'm up since a while, just still feeling sleepy lol. But then again I haven't eaten yet, that's perhaps why...I'm debating between eating breakfast or waiting for luch right now ^^;

You Moon?

Lol, I usually wake up around that time too, but Anime North completely messed up my morning schedule, guess lacking sleep for the entire week before the convention didn't help ^^;

How come you gotta wait until she leaves?

Oh ok, I hate when my parents start doing that too <_<; But my parents are retired, so the only thing I can do is hope my dad won't suddenly appear to annoy me, like starting reading my msn convo and the such ^^;

Ya, you need concentration when drawing, not been stressed out because you may or may not have a parent lurking behind you ^^;

What kind of art are you doing btw? Normal pencil/eraser style, or photoshop/wacom style?

http://www.trisphee.com/forums/showt...251#post715251

that is the kind of art I do XD sorry didn't feel like posting individual links so i just linked you to a thread i made witht he links

Lol no prob xD
Very beautiful art O.O I especially love the headshot, the shading is amazing! And the hair just looks fantastic!

Which software did you use? Photoshop?

Ooh~ is this show off art time because I drew for the first time in a whileee C:
I drew the orange haired guy in this pic~ http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...iScribSeth.jpg
Aaand I drew dis~ http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m...mieliScrib.png

Lol, I see, I gotta use my tablet more, it's getting dusty since I bought it, stupid University asked for all my time so I barely drew/painted anymore...

And your pixel art is cute too, it makes me think of those paper dolls my mother used to have when she was a child (the type where you add pieces of clothing over the naked doll by folding the tabs of the clothes under the body of the doll). And once again...I love the shading of the hair on the blue one, I'm a fangirl when it comes to hair shading it appears xD


@Lucifer: Very cute ^^ I gotta go check something for my mom, I shall comment more in a couple of minutes lol.

*Wiggles about and hugs the both of them* My art is rather rusty, I haven't been able to draw much, because I have carpal tunnel and my tablet hurts my hand :C

Alright, back, sorry about that ^^;
Ok, well first of all the facial features on your second pic are really cute, I love that style ^^ And whoa, carpal tunnel and yet you can draw like this? I'm envious now O.O

As for the 1st pic...Orange haired guy? I...don't see any orange haired guy ^^;

It's not too bad, I've learned to deal with it since I am a 'maintenance associate' at walmart and work with my hands for a living, it overall is fine just ends up hurting at the end.
And the Orange haired guy, the upper right corner with tan skin and grey eyes?

Ahhh, ok... I kinda see...purple hair ^^; But as I already said on the 2nd pic, I love the facial features style on that one too, especially the mouth O.O

And youch...I'm a programmer/tester, so I don't think I'd be able to live with it ^^;


@Moon: Well, at least you draw something, the only I draw nowadays are cosplay pieces I'll need for my future cosplay like Catherina's crosses and Faris's clothes pieces, lol.


Oh, and the heck with it, here, that's how I draw (it's EXTREMELY old though, warning xD):
http://yamanekodemon.deviantart.com/...434119#/dvm052

Nefer should draw more~ :3 and maybe the pic is transparent, I am not sure.. ._.

Ahah, ya I should...but I always end up not finishing my work when I do, I'm always busy with either school (well, at least that's over now...) or finishing a cosplay piece... *look at her right and see unfinish Sephiroth shoulder armor modifications*

Plus, I take a while to draw something, I usually draw it on paper, then scan it, THEN use photoshop and my wacom tablet to redraw the outlines and add layers for the shading/lightning/colors/background ^^;

Nothing wrong with that, or you can like.. find a pirated (or buy) paint tool sai it has a REALLY good lineart layer you can do.. o3o;;

(Also the pics I drew earlier were on the iscribble online drawing program and I didn't use any blur tool, I made each shade of color and drew ti there :3)

Well, I have photoshop, that's why I said I use the computer to add layers ^^ But uh ya, sometimes I manage to remake the lineart really quickly if there's not too many 'eraser and hand passing over the HB pencil marks', but it usually take a while so it depends on how I'm feeling lol.

And wow...All colors were drew seperatly? O.O Personally I usually use the alpha (transparency) feature of the pencil/brush and add multiple lines over/under the color I want to darken/lighten, it gives a smooth effect whenever I don't feel like drawing anime like with all it's 'sudden change of shading' look ^^;

The program online I doodled those with only has a smudge/blur tool and color, but it DOES have an area pickup so you can do two colors, put it in the middle of them and then it'll absorb them and make an in between so I can do all of one or so shading type, fill it in and then make newer shades of in between...

Oh I see... It's useful then O.O But still, it's quite time consuming... Congrat on making the shading on your two pics, it really looks like you used a more advanced software and yet you didn't ^^

I dunno iscribble is a fun thing~

Lol, every drawing software is a fun thing, only thing bad about them is the fact that you spend so much time on them without even realising it...then you look at your clock and it's 4AM and yet you want to finish what you started xD

Oh youch... I never have issues with gaia, only DA because of my anti-virus software, I have to desactivate it if I want to stay login for more than a minute...

But then again...I don't go to gaia as offenly as before anymore... yet I miss my inari beads...I miss my nine tails <_<;

xD
That's nice from you ^^ Personally I keep my stuff since I play Zomg once in a while...rarely but I have those urge once upon a time, lol.

I dare you to try iscribble >3>

xD
I could try...but I need to create an account O_o
Though first thing first... I need to go eat something, it's 12:03PM here and I haven't eat this morning, well apart from two small squares of dark chocolate and a glass of milk, lol.

And now... I have a sudden urge to draw something... Gah, I'll try my best to draw something before tomorrow and I'll post it here if it's worth showing xD

Ya, understandable... At least you made someone happy ^.^

well...i'll need more than 1 trade since i can only give 12 items at a time per trade XD and i need her to accept the trade first XD

Yay~ I wanna see your art :3 Alsoo~ We're in the same timezone xD

@Moon: XDD I take it you're like me and had far more than just 12 items? lol

@Lucifer: Ahaha sure, but I'll probably color it via photoshop though, I'm more used to it and my wacom tablet is installed on it ^^; Though I just checked my sketch pads (because the one next to me is full, Faris' apparel took the last page apparently), and uh... I saw pics I didn't even remember I drew xD I kinda fear I've lost some of my skills though, and yes those pics were made after the one I posted previously so they're kinda better in quality, but only in W&B, therefore I never posted it anywhere... plus that's mainly original characters ^^;

I too have an urge to draw... but I'm supposed to be working.
; u ;

yup XD WAY MORE
