| [Meme]Artist meme that's been going around |
[May. 14th, 2008|11:15 pm] |
=__= I saw this going around quite abit... but haven't had the time to sit down and analyse and properly reply to everyone's TAT Stolen from... everywhere I think xD
1. Do I have a distinct style of drawing? 2. If so, what exactly is it that defines my "style"? 3. Would you say my art usually follows a 'theme'? 4. Is there anything I really need to improve on or change? 5. Does my style (if I have one) remind you of/look like the style of anyone else? 6. Judging from whatever art of mine that you've seen, what do you think I do the best at? 7. What do you think I suck at?
... I haven't started packing *pulls hair* |

| EXTREME!Pimpage XD [Commissions!] |
[Feb. 22nd, 2008|06:46 am] |
Not mine, even though I'd love it if anyone commissioned me *kicked* These are more urgent, while I'm just trying to save up in case I get kicked out of school for lack of monies ^___^;;;
amecandy is offering commissions! She's saving up to go to FAnime, so please help her! Actually, do it for yourself because her art is absolutely beautiful (I seriously cannot spell that G-word T.T)
http://amecandy.livejournal.com/29494.html
futomimii is also taking commissions! She's saving up for her Iroha costume, and her ink work is to die for~ go go go!
http://futomimii.livejournal.com/275556.html
I'm also taking commissions so just drop an email (yumizuseki@gmail.com) if you want to? *PHAIL* Note: I pale in comparison to the above two orz;;;
I cannot remember if anyone else if offering commissions... |

| *KEYSMASH* |
[Jan. 23rd, 2008|08:57 pm] |
http://community.livejournal.com/hitman_reborn/865469.html#cutid8 >> Please slap me before I go spiralling down the same abyss as shuui XD
No, actually that's not the reason for keysmash, even though the 6927 doujin is rather tempting T>T
AHHH SAK SAK SAK. The bookmarks and calendars are gonna be the suckiest things I ever made (If i could make them in time orz;;;) I can't align the calendars to be double sided so I have to put them together manually, cut them out and then laminate them (and laminating will cost me because I have no laminating machine. WOE.)
( Obligatory post so you know what the heck I'm talking about )
Luckily I'm only printing 12 of everything... I found my old Sasuke + Naruto prints so I guess I'll be selling those as well *wipes the plastic clean* GYARGH. Remember T_T Focus is Rojak *mumbles to self* Should I even contemplate selling them online? ._. Small stuff like bookmarks and calendars and A4 prints (who am I kidding |D)
After SoY is done and I have more time, I'll be taking pictures of pencil boards and stuff I have x_X I no longer have interest in collecting posters and stuff, so I guess I'll just sell them all before my parents clean up my cupboard some time in the 4 years I'm gone and go "W-what is this?!"
AAU had better find my documents and get me my I-20 form soon or I'll just shoot myself DX I want my visa application to go smoothly and BEFORE I start school. Oh man... *goes and fills up housing application despite doubts*
My Naruto muse has come back after catching up with chapters... Madara/Kyuubi!? T3T;;; I guess black_sun_shine will be updated sooner or later...
In other news, HAPPY BIRTHDAY korilin~~~ if you even see this xD |

People~ DX I'm suddenly at a loss. So... what fanart you guys wanna get if you're going to SoY? Excess will be sold online... I guess.
Postcards? (need to be can use one o not o.o) Bookmarks? Laminated prints? Calendars?
What series? I can only think of Reborn and Persona 3 because that's all my brain is full of now XD Anyone still into Abyss?
I need suggestions desperately and fast XD SoY is like what, 3 weeks later?
Persona 3 outburst: Kenji you are the most wrong-sounding friend I ever had DX I don't want to know what you intend to do with your gf NOOOOOOO *RUNS AWAY* |

What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do when things aren't going the way I predicted?
OTL... People in San Francisco... is it true they won't let you work part-time while studying... TT [] TT I know I can't unconvince my parents I don't want to go there since the intent has been hanging off my face =_=;;; I just want to be able to lighten their load by at least providing for my daily needs myself.
By the way, since I've already been pimping mad...

Visit here for more info XD Not much updates, but Dancho put up a new bg track ' w ' Knowing we have our own soundtrack makes me kinda giddy xD Now let's hope we make the deadline and I get my bloody leave approved.
... I really want to do that Naruto doujin right now. And finish that Guy/Luke one XD |

This is the first time (and certainly not the last) I will talk about Reborn manga. Please ignore since I've already sounded the alarms.
- Ryohei is as dorky as ever XD - Yamamoto is looking more his age (15? 16?)O___O - I can see 6927 in any way possible even if it's not there (692796!? 托梦给2个对自己最重要的人吗? 可是希望还没真的挂了...)
- Kusakabe is a good babysitter. He should exchange tips with Tsuna since they're both so good at it. - I SEE MEGANE!GOKUDERA XD I knew he'd be the brains more than brawn behind the family someday. - I see 8027 =w= - Why can't I draw Reborn fanart dammit. *badly wants to draw CP*
By the way... since I know everyone ignores my DA.... T___T I know I have to open commissions long term to start adding to my living funds when I start studying... anyone interested? Hit me up in the comments or email me or note me, and I'll give you a price quote? @__@ I'll draw anything cept pr0n. |

If you're bothered and disturbed enough by the only comments I seem to be making over at talesoftheabyss as of late, please remove me if you wish and inform me. I know the deleted post was posted for baiting, and I took the bait. Apologies.
But... BUT. I can look over using fanart for whatever you like even though I don't agree with it, but the racist comments really are over the top. I would like to say English is an international language and anyone who can get on the Internet will be able to understand it to some extent, not to mention it's taught as a second language in most Asian countries. WTF. W.T.F.
If you can't see f-locked posts after this, you know what it means. |

"Hopefully you'll be able to watch Pirates of the Carribean on the ship then."
"yeah...not likely th-...... SHIP!?"
XD Looks like it's invaded our brains the moment At World's End came ashore *shot*
T___T I sure hope it's showing by the time I'm back in Singapore >_<; Boss called me in at 4+ today and asked if it was ok to ask me to go to HongKong with them tommorow. I was stunned and "uh"ed for a looong time, and she was asking if I had something important going on, but I couldn't tell her "I'm watching PoTC: At World's End tommorow night, so I can't go on a buying trip and meeting suppliers with you" D8 At any rate, it happened so suddenly, that I left near 7 today and my head was pounding because I had to clear all my work before I leave. ^_^;;; She's bringing her kid along so I reckon it's a business trip but not that serious and hardcore as the ones in my previous job... But... 3 days in Hong Kong, 3 days in Guangzhou and 3 days in Taiping. It sounds tiring as it is already ;;;
My contract's been extended to 6 months because of the Hong Kong trip. Boss was utterly surprised when I said ok. "You like this job??" "uh..." "...Are you learning? Are you glad you're learning?" "Yes, yes I am."
The bosses are kinda impulsive at times, but I hopefully made the right choice this time. Even if I didn't, I promise myself to stay on at least a year.
So...anyhoo, I'm praying hard that SIA has Chow Yun Fatt saying "Welcome to Singapore" in their movie list for tommorow's flight >__<; Guh. Sorry guys T___T;;; No internet, not sure if I have my auto-roam on, if your SMSes are bouncing back, it means I'm kinda retarded in the new temp phone area DX I'll be bringing my sketchbook along and hopefully finish the 2 doujin projects I have without the distraction of internet by the time I come back. Bad thing is... no references D8
I... HOPE I have a room to myself o_O *Please, please don't let them make me look after their kid* DX What if I end up being a bad influence? O_O;;;; And "HAVE FUN!!!" to all those people who are going to various various cons this weekend or next or whenever XD
Meanwhile, please amuse yourselves with Luke fon Gainsborough. I... drew it in a rush using pchat. More will come... eventually XD Take a lucky guess on who's going to be who.

Back to packing luggage now...
Edit: Can't believe how quick it took me to pack =w= Just throw some sets of clothes in, pack my stationery, passport and stuff, and tommorow morning I'll throw my chargers in and viola o_O OTL;;; I'm really getting too relaxed about this travelling stuff.
I think I caught the flu bug T__T; *sniffling and blocked ears* |

Can you guys sms me and tell me who you are? Because my old phone totally died, its screen actually, and I can't even view the phone's numbers to manually transfer them into my old sim card ;__; So I have to go round gathering contacts again. And if can, send me as many mutual contacts you know as possible DX Dammit, I should've saved my contacts in the card instead of phone... >__<;;;
I'm so bad with phones...argh. |

| *sigh* About the usage of fanart in icons |
[Apr. 2nd, 2007|06:21 am] |
| [ | Tags | | | rant | ] |
| [ | mood |
| | apathetic | ] |
Yeah, well, before you go "NOT AGAIN" I'd just like to say that I'm typing this on personal experience, just to let people know why I'm against using fanart/doujin scans in icons without the artist knowing.
I, personally, would not feel good if someone I didn't know, never even bothered to talk to me or send me an email, used my fanart as an icon. I thought it would. I thought I'd feel flattered if someone used my art for something personal, but no. Only when I experienced it myself, did I understand why all those artists against their art being used as icons were so anal about it.
So as the story goes, I was involved in SasuxNaru lj comm, still am but not quite. One fine day I was looking at a fic, looking through its comments, and I saw an icon I made of a friend's fanart on someone's username. I did post it on a public post, saying that it doesn't matter if I wasn't credited for the icon, but please credit the artist, name included. I won't point out which friend, because I can't remember if I ranted it to you before ^^; I was curious to see if my conditions were followed so I went to look at the user's userpics page. Lo and behold, the artist's name wasn't there. Nor was mine even. So I asked her where she got the icon from. She told me a friend sent it to her. I went to that friend's userpic page (I swear, I don't stalk on regular basis OTL) and I saw another icon made from my fanart o_O It was that Valentine's day pic I posted on the comm quite long ago (I deleted it from DA already) and there was a credit in the comments to a friend.
I asked her where she got the art from and could she credit me. I even showed her the original art on my DA site. She told me a friend sent it to her and she had no idea I drew it. And so she credited the friend who sent her the fanart. (The first thought in my mind was "fxxxing hell, that pic is on right on top of my da and I frequent the lj comm. I'm not being egoistic, but I KNOW I'm sort of known on the comm for that pic. I kinda think you were too lazy to find out.")
It ended peacefully, but I have my reservations about posting art in the comm now. And I can tell you, it's not a nice feeling to find out that some stranger just made an icon from a fanart their friend sent them and didn't bother to find out WHO the artist was, much less give a damn about asking if you would let them make your art into icons or banners or whatnot. And honestly, that's the same as using scans for icons and crediting the scanner. You credit the person who provided you with the picture, but you don't bother or even care who drew it. It's a very very uncomfortable feeling. It's also the same reason why black_sun_shine was previously F-locked.
I would like to know where my art is going, and what is being done to it, at least. And that's how I view using fanart and doujinshi as icons.
Feel free to pimp this to the point of abuse ^^; It's just a personal experience on how a no-name, not recognised artist feels about the usage of her artwork. If you're going to tell me that I shouldn't even post art in public places if I don't want it to be used without my permission, do know I am already f-locking the artwork that mean something to me. |

| Tales of the Abyss doodle request meme |
[Mar. 27th, 2007|09:04 am] |
So after being so happy about defeating Replicantis and getting even more high on seeing the Crisis Core trailer, I've decided to do what I wanted to do for a long time =w= Open a Tales of the Abyss doodle request meme. I'll be taking 20 requests (Will edit the post once 20 requests are given) I bet once the high is over I'll regret it XD
Unlocked entry cos I'm crossposting this to talesoftheabyss, guyxluke and belovedkuzu
Conditions:
- Must be Tales of the Abyss related - One request per person - Crack is welcome =D - All pairings are accepted (at least I'll try to draw them... DX I can't promise a very good Gigant Mohs though...) Most situations/scenarios are accepted unless i discover I can't do it ^^; I'll profusely apologise and ask you to choose something else should that be the case - Please don't be picky about art quality? ;_; - I don't promise to deliver by certain deadlines but I will deliver. - Closed once 20 requests are filled
20 requests all filled ^_^ |

=w= But my mood got abit dampened after THE SCENE in Mt. Zaleho. But falalla, lots of doodle muses attacking after the scenes in Grand Chokmah.... I am now officially a very convinced Luke-uke fan OTL Haha... and I can't get the "cute little Jade" stuff outta my mind. Love Peony. Too many crack musings =__=;;; *gonna have weird dreams tonight*
T_T Luke is a such a little angstball before things take a turn for the worst. And after that, he suddenly seems like he's strong enough to give emotional support to people >_o Maybe it's the same way as Guy's gynophobia. Like he has no time to worry and angst over his own fate when the world's fate is in his hands.

Commissions are up again! Not in urgent need of money, I just seem to do a better job when it's a paid project rather than self project >__< Need to draw more serious stuff to get portfolio up and going. Spread the word onegai =)
Btw, should I make black_sun_shine a public art journal? I used friendslocked in the beginning because the SasuxNaru pairing war fiasco was getting to me and I didn't want any fanatic of any kind hurling flames at me =x Now I've become a hermit I guess it's more or less safe for it to be public? XD

EDIT: k. Need to make a proper New Year Eve entry. Evaluation time =X This year flew by too too fast. I have to look at my LJ archive to know what happened x_X Warned that I'll be super super frank about my personal views about events.
( Things that happened )
In general, I guess it was such a hectic year I didn't even realise how fast it passed ^^; Reviewing my entries, especially these last 4 months seem abit painful >_<; I don't have alot of happy times I discovered.
New Year Resolutions: - Be happy about something (so corny...) - Appreciate the people around me more - Stop compromising and doing things to make others happy - Be able to do things I've been longing to do - Be decisive and make decisions - To have a better, more positive attitude - To find time to make myself happy - To be honest with myself.
I;ve been thinking that online games.... I should play them alone ;;; Because when there are people who have expectations of me, I will feel pressured and exasperated sometimes. My resolutions sound very self-centered... but OTL I really need to spend some time to focus on my happy side and not angst over not being able to make people happy and therefore making myself upset... As time goes on, I realise, it's not that easy to break out of my shell after all ^^;;; |

Leave a list of fictional characters in your journal that you would love to get a message from. It is your friend-list's mission, should they choose to accept it, to write you an in-character "letter" from a character on that list. Then they post their own list in their journal and the process continues! (Feel free to post anonymously too.)
1. Sai - Naruto 2. Naruto - Naruto 3. Hinata - Naruto 4. Sunao - Sukisyo 5. Nanami - Sukisyo 6. Gaku - Sukisyo 7. Goku - Saiyuki 8. Yachiru - Bleach 9. Kenpachi (Zaraki) - Bleach 10.
