Okay, so the Art Trade for will be a Christmas present. Officially. Um...so far only two people have asked me questions on my poll. So if more people could get on that, I would like that. I love trying to answer them. As for the answers to those, here they are.

1. "When (or if) you ever get a chance to do a realistic kinda vector, would you keep your WIP's and kinda give a walkthrough on how you got there?"

Yes, I would if people wanted to see it. I don't usually show that because I usually sit down and do it all at once and because I didn't know if anyone would like to see them. I'm planning to do realistic vectors in the future, but we'll see how that goes.

2. "How many push-ups can you do in a minute?!?"

I actually don't know...never tried. However, at school we do fitness tests in gym and, though it doesn't count time, it makes you do them at the proper speed to actually strengthen your muscles. I was able to complete 25 before I felt like I was about to strain myself too far.

Now as for my new idea, I know about the 100 themes contest that everyone does, and I decided to modify it a bit. It will still be 100, but they will be anything ranging from vectors to sketches to photomanips, which I'm about to start doing. Also, instead of being random themes, each one will somehow reflect a song. The title of each pic will be the title of the song and the description box will have a little write up including the artist and what the song's about.

The only other thing I have to say is:

Merry Chrismas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa or whatever else you may celebrate and my apologies for not having it on the list. And if you happen to celebrate nothing, have a good winter break regardless!

Got bored and decided to try it. I don't see why a lot of these are considered dumb though... Anyways, I guess it's for those who want to know more about me.

Kay so I have about 5 pieces of artwork to post up but I need to actually hook up the scanner. Um..those will be up ASAP! That includes my trade for and yours is on it's way. I finished Zack 80%, just need facial details and shading. Then I have the rough outline of
Cloud. I'm getting there. Slowly. Also, Dei-kun, feel free next time you see me to ask for book 7 of Morganville. I gotz it!

Also, I realized recently that I have a few cosplays of characters that I loove that I can rarely find, or can't find at all. So, I'm about to feature them!


Thumbelina and Cornelius

Shiloh from Repo and Kyuzo from Samurai 7

Red Thunder Ranger and Muraki from Yami no Matsuei

Leo from Tekken 6 and Yue from Cardcaptors

Hope you like them!

And so it ends. However, as a wonderful finish to my day, my 12 year old brother showed me a video on youtube that his teacher showed their class today. It has an amazing emotional impact. Truly it does. Please, take the few minutes out of your day to watch it. It's not your typical slideshow or interview you would normally see. It's worth it to see it.

Lest We Forget

Okay, so first thing's first. Recently I decided to join a BeyFamily on dA. And I got in! Hence the new avatar. As part of rules, so you guys can get used to seeing this, I am required to put up my teammates, as well as at least 2 other teams. So, here they are!







I would like to thank for giving me the chance to join!

On to other news, it's Vetran's week! Also known as Remembrance Day. Now, this is a big thing for me. My great-grandfather was a WWII vetran, my cousin is training with the army, I have a few friends in army cadets and my mom's boyfriend's brother is in army reserves. So this is a big day for me. I hope you will all hold to spirit and remember all those who died in the wars, and even all those who fought. On Nov 11th, wear the poppy guys. And if you can, join me in this. I will be printing a picture of my great-grandpa to pin into the middle of my poppy. If you know of a vetran from the war, carry them with you. Honor what they have done. and hey, if you can, send me pictures. Of your personalized poppy, or of anything having to do with Remembrance Day (pictures or poems) that you know of on dA.
