This week’s Skullgirls shirt features my Eliza picture!! I am so honored that they picked my art and I am still sort of wondering how to properly express my gratitude and excitement. I am speechless. If you want to support the awesome folks at Lab Zero and Eighty Sixed and like my art then pick up a shirt! The shirt is available this week only and after that it’ll be gone.

I was tagged!!!! Twice!

Tagged by .

=RULES=
1. You must post the rules.
2. Each person must post 5 things about themselves in their journal
3. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create eleven new questions for the people you tag to answer.
4. You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.
5. Go to their page and tell them you have tagged them.
6. No tag backs
7. No stuff in the tagging section about "you're tagged if you're reading this". You legitimately have to tag 10 people.

1. Do you like Zombies?
Personally I am beginning to think they are a bit overdone but I still get some amusement from them especially in the "humor" they inspire like the serious survival guides and the sort.

2. How old were you when you started drawing?
I have been drawing for as long as I remember. I didn't take it seriously until a little later in my life though.

3. Do you like the Hayao Miyazaki Films? If so, which do you like best? (ex: My Neighbor Totoro)
I have only seen Spirited Away!! I live under a rock what would you guys suggest to me?

4. Which do you prefer, cats, dogs, birds, or fish?
Hmmmmmm. Hmmmmm. I don't really like animals as pets but if I absolutely had to have one it would probably be a dog.

5. Have you seen the American Horror Story series?
No D :

6. What's your favorite cartoon of all time?
I am not sure... ummm... yeah

7. Have you played on the N64 as a child?
No. Suddenly I can feel where this is going...

8. Did you grow up around video games?
Yes and yet I never played a N64 or very many games for that matter but they have played a big role in my life if that even makes any sense haha.

9. Have you played TF2? If so, what's your favorite class?
I think this one is an easy guess. I like the Spy but I can't play him weh. Not a shock. I usually play medic in matches though. Is that a shock? I'll pretend it is.

10. What inspires you to draw?
Art, videogames, music. Just take a peek in my gallery and be amazed at how long one thing or character can inspire me for long stretches of time, hehe. Or is this sad...

11. Who's your favorite artist?
There are too many!!!

And Round Two!!! Tagged by

Rules:
1. You must post the rules.
2. Each person must post 6 things about themselves in their journal.
3. You have to choose 11 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.

1. Some of my earliest drawings were of Pokemon and I used to make up my own. Arbok was my absolute favorite back then.

2. Before I painted digitally, my medium of choice was colored pencils. When I started experimenting with digital, I started using traditional paints and they evolved together.

3. I don't like drinking any carbonated drinks and when I do it is only like a third of the can.

4. I bought Guilty Gear because a friend suggested it to me and I hated the game at first (it was #reload for the xbox). Also Millia was my first main.

5. I drew Blazblue, Team Fortress and Hard Corps art before I actually played the games. I drew art for BB when CT came out and I didn't play BB until CS2 and I got that game as a gift. Tf2 was less drastic. I started drawing during the first scout update with the Force of Nature and bought the game during the sniper/spy update. I drew Leviathan based on blurry opening footage and bought HCU later that day. That picture will never see the light of day haha.

6. Before Arc games, my art was very heavily inspired by Dead or Alive and Soulcalibur. The opening in Ultimate really made me rethink how I went about drawing hair and made me attempt softer styles. And SC just has the most amazing designs and inspired my early ocs.

I am too lazy to come up with my own questions so I'll only tag for the 6 facts one. I tag (and you don't have to do it if you don't want to!!!!):



okay I get points for trying to tag people, I can't go on anymore.

Like a lot of other people I also caved in and got an Anipan account as I cannot resist stalking other artists on multiple accounts. Find me here: [link]

And that's all I got. Speaking of art websites... Does anyone share their art in places other than deviantART, tumblr, pixiv or blogspot? Suggest some other places to me, although I imagine these are the main ones.

With the end of the year coming up I think I may upload some sketches of pieces left unfinished, never uploaded here or doomed to my Tumblr. I am thinking it will all be uploaded into the scrapbook section so keep an eye out on that area if you are curious.

I have also been feeling rather artblocked lately but the requests are still on my mind so hopefully I can knock out a few of those soon.

Heeeey, new journal entry finally

Everyone go check out my sister's gallery because she is awesome and she needs more love.

Also, I am going to finally close requests for now. I have a good amount that needs to be completed. I know I opened requests a long time ago and have spent forever getting around to them but I just want you guys to know, I will get them done. I really want to give you guys something awesome and I often find that some of my work doesn't always match my standards. To the people who requested something last year, I am sorry that I am making you wait but I will make it worth it. I really do appreciate the requests I have received because some of your requests have really pushed me out of my comfort zone and you guys sure can come up with some wicked awesome ideas that I could never come up with myself.

<sub>Time to update this old thing. Most of you have probably realized that this is one of my weakpoints. So anyway, I want to be more active. We've heard me say this before and I never really pull through. I want to change that.

Also for those of you who are patiently waiting for me to take another stab at painting seriously with Photoshop. I am working on that. It'll probably be Team Fortress again. This time I want to aim for something more dynamic and less stiff. But, it'll take me forever to find free time to work on it. I just want to let you guys know, I have not abandoned Team Fortress. I do plan on someday doing the Guilty Gear crew justice in an awesome painting (because my old pieces suck and I am somewhat ashamed of them)... but I am too lazy.

I know, I owe a lot of you requests and I am working on them (They will be special, dammit! I owe you patient people that much) But in the meantime, I have been drawing small sketches everywhere. The problem is, I run out of ideas often and end up just sitting in the library just staring at my sketchbook. Then everything gets weird and awkward and people stare and I stare back. And then people wander over and I feel like I accomplished nothing. It is quite a terrible feeling.

So give me ideas!!! Please. I can't guarantee that I will draw them all (Although, I am imagining I'll only get two requests. I want more!!!). But what I will draw, I will try to draw quickly. I want to work with more deadlines so I'll give myself around 3 weeks to complete the drawing. Most will be simple and with pencil and if I am feeling really inspired I may paint. But, this is free drawings!!! So give me ideas, I'll let you know whether I choose your ideas and then draw.

Now, I must go and visit profiles and fav and comment the hell out of everything. It'll be slow but I'll look through everything. Feel free to link to some of your artwork here. Especially the ones that you really want me to see and comment. Cause I will.</sub>
