Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)
Draw a
100 point giveaway!Because I can. c:
Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me. :la:
Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang. :D

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Wow! Over 6,000 page views and Happy B-Day to me!

:iconthe-pooper:

I just now notice that I have over 6,000 Page views!! Holy crap! Just a couple of weeks ago I was barely trying to make it to 3800. A lot of those page views came from Street Fighter art that i've done and my more recent fan arts of Naruto... with my Team Yamato Tribute to Ladygt93 receiving over 840 favorites in a matter of days, and lead me to have over 330 page views in a couple of days! I was really shocked by this, and I thank you all for viewing!

I try to put my all into my artwork... I've already established a name for myself in the SF fanart with my RxCL art... and I know I'm not one of the best Naruto Artist around DA, but I'd like to be known and recognized as a good Naruto and NaruSaku artist in the Naruto fan community. I'm trying to make my art pieces great to share with everyone. :)

So, because I had so many compliments of my Team Yamato art, I've started making a Doujin of Naruto based on the expressions on the image. It's about Naruto issuing a challenge to Yamato in a Staring contest. So LOL, who do you think will win? :D It will be in Black and White similar to the manga.

Also working on a three part picture poster of Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke based on the Fourth Ninja War. I hope this comes out as good as I envision it. :)

And more NaruSaku art! yes, I'm a NaruSaku fanatic... for those who disapprove of this pairing my apologies. It's not meant to offend anyone.

And for those waiting on my SF comic, I feel really bad that it has taken me this long to just get something up... with everything going on and things that I want to do, it became a hassle to color all the pages. So I'm going to upload the pages in it's pencil form with the dialogue on it. Once I'm done with that, then I'll be continuing the series digitally like my upcoming Naruto Doujin. Again, I'm really sorry, but I'll have it up soon.

Also, I just turned 29 today. Yay me!! But I'm still that happy go lucky kid at heart. I'd like to say thanks for all of those who wished me a Happy Birthday and drew/typed me up some fan art or fan fiction. :)


And sincerely, I'd like to thank all my watchers and those who faved my artwork! You guys and gals are great, and I really REALLY do appreciate it. :) I love to reply to all my comments (I don't have internet at home, so it may take me a while to reply), and I can't thank everyone for the favs, but thank you so much!

I've got lots of ideas in my head and doodles laying on my desk with ideas... I can't wait to get to those projects. I hope you all enjoy my work. Thank you all again! It really does mean a lot to me. :)
