Mesdames and messieurs, just a short notice to let you know that I'm going to be away from Internet for a little longer than my usual holiday breaks! This time there are too many (yeah, never enough actually, but you get what I mean XD) trips in a row, so even though I'll probably be able to check my stuff between one and another, I won't be online very much until the end of August!

I hope you'll all have a wonderful summer ♥ Also, I created this journal for my drawings, but if a couple of good photos will come out of this month, I won't hesitate and share them too :D

See you, guys!!

Hi guys!!! It's been a while but SORRY I WAS BUSY GRADUATING - YAY YAY YAY!!!

*a little moment of self-celebration*

...and here I am :3 actually I will be away from the computer most of the summer, but enjoy my silly pictures until you can!!

Title: Fierce like an orangutan
Series/Characters: OC - Mshai
Media: Pencil and pigment liner
Description: I was bored and searched for some OC meme online...but as I started the "25 expressions" one, I realized that doing a couple of them would be way more than enough to spend my time, and I stopped here XD I don't draw Mshai often, but I chose him because his expressions are really, really funny to make XDDD he certainly doesn't hide his feelings!!
( I was told that "tired" looks more like "drunk" but oh well. )

Title: Popular
Series/Characters: OC - Kyrene and Caleb
Media: Painter
Description: Okaaay, I made this only to entertain me, because it's an inside joke that I had to explain even to DaphneArgent, Kyrene's owner XD If you don't know the musical Wicked, the text in the balloon is from one of its songs, which is basically about one of the characters wanting to make the other one popular. I was listening to the song and these words reminded me of the situation that these two characters had in one of our roleplays, when Kyrene helped my Caleb to get acquinted with his love interest...so I couldn't resist and drew them in Wicked cosplay XDD
( Caleb:"Thanks, but I think I should start from getting my real skin colour back..." )

Title: Samir Sarkesian and the Temple of Doom
Series/Characters: OC - Samir, Pandoro and Devi
Media: Pencil and pigment liner
Description: I only drew these two in separate pictures until now, but I really wanted to make a picture with them together!! They're such an adorable couple ♥ (well...technically there's Devi too, but you get what I mean). Pandoro and Samir met while exploring a misterious palace on another planet, and that should be the very schematic thing you see on the background 8DD the gears are just to enhance the steampunk atmosphere of Pandoro's attire!! Yeeeeeeee I love gears!!
( "Mr. Sarkesian, look! We entered a bidimensional palace!" )

Title: THIS IS UFU
Series/Characters:
Media: Photoshop
Description: WELL THIS IS MY MASTERPIECE, OK. My lovely aredhel_87 requested me to draw this 300 version of the ufu, and I was more than happy to do so ♥ For those who don't know, "Ufu" is the emoticon you can see above, worshipped by me and my friends and drawn so many times on school notes and such, that it become almost a character of ours (and changed features a little, even) XDD THIS IS MADNESS!! No...
( I love the falling one )

Woah, it's been almost a month since last post!! I really should draw more...e_e stupid warm weather. Deprives me of energy.

These days I've been in the mood of drawing but without inspiration for the subjects, so I decided to have fun with a little gender bending of various characters 8DD I've been so taken with doll-making that it consumed my energies!! But let's see what came out of it!

Title: It's gender-bending time! x 3
Series/Characters: OC - Mary Lee, Narar and Neftiu
Media: Pencil and pigment liner
Description: I put all of these under the same description because, really, there isn't much to say XD These are, in order, my character Mary Lee, Greendruid's Narar, and DaphenArgent's Neftiu, in their opposite gender! I love the way that we chose characters that are all so smug and confident, although in very different ways XDD
( Most of their sexual preferences probably don't change very much, but still... )

This post looks shorter, but is actually as long as the usual ones, so...that's all for now!:D

Hello lovelies! As you can see, relax worked wonders for me :D NEW PICTURES!! And freedom in the air! Even if I was confined at home the last couple of days, I definitely enjoyed it 8DD♥

Title: Aloha Pupino
Series/Characters: OC - Alihi
Media: Pencil, pigment liner and Photoshop
Description: XD drawing this picture made my day!! I liked doing the pose and the and the surf table with the Pupino on it ♥ (for those who don't know, that's one of my beloved plushies :D for some reasons it was decided that my character Alihi has one too). The idea came out after I wasted some time doing an Excel pie chart to see the most common nationalities between my OCs (I have no life, now, I know) Some of them were pretty tricky, Alihi for example comes from a fantasy setting! But since I took the inspiration for its motherland from the history of Hawaii, I decided that in our world, he'd live there 8DD And that's where I got this idea!
( Alihi + Hibiscus + Pupino = Oh, summer in the air! )

Title: Parasol
Series/Characters: OC - Pandoro
Media: Pencil and pigment liner
Description: Pandoro is usually dressed like a man, so it's unlikely to see a scene like this...but DaphneArgent asked me for a picture of our dear steampunk prodigy in female attire, and I wanted to use a Regency style XD The parasol is terrible, I know, but I honestly don't know how to draw one and since it was just a little sketch I didn't want to spend ages on it *shamelessly admits her faults*
( "Why am I holding this monstrous object?" )

Title: Vigilant
Series/Characters: OC - Tokala and Brunhild
Media: Pencil, pigment liner, felt-tip pen, Painter and Photoshop
Description: Woah, this came out really small after I shrinked it in livejournal-dimensions "XD but at least it gives the general atmosphere in a single glance! I wanted to draw my Tokala and Greendruid's Brunhild under a starry sky, and play a little with the light of the fire. Tokala's pectoral armor and Brunhild's musket gave me HELL. Too bad you can't see any effort in these dimensions XDD I also wanted to a fox in the sky at first, Tokala's guide, but then I realized that the simple beauty of the stars was magical enough <3
( Stupid stars kept on disappearing as I shrinked them, obviously. )

That's all for now! But if inspiration stays tuned, you'll hear more from me soon e_e//

Hey guys and dolls!! I've been through university stuff, A LOT, but I can now proudly say that I finished my exams AND my thesis!! So...still some stuff to do, but I'm basically FREE. FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
...:D

I apologize for the lenght of the post and all the stupid silly pictures in it, but next time the quality will hopefully improve thanks to more free time!

Title: Lockers
Series/Characters: OC - Addie and Milo
Media: Pencil, pigment liner and felt-tip pen
Description: Ahaha I hated inking this picture!! I didn't want to spend time on it because it was meant to be a fast sketch, but my pigment liner had died and I was making a mess with my ballpoint pen, and to make up for it I had to actually spend time on the lines! At least I didn't have to do the background as well XD
Anyway! In the OC meme I posted some time ago my characters Addie and Milo were always paired together in the questions, and it amused me. I couldn't help but imagine how would it be if they actually knew each other, and to think of some normal high-school life plot sometimes it's so refreshing! Twisted plots are the best, but it's nice to fall into clichès sometimes XDD Addie would be nerdy and solitary, of course, while Milo would be the arrogant good-looking guy. Ha! But they'd be cute.
( Stereotypes and AU are great )

Title: Fuzzy scribble
Series/Characters: None
Media: ScribblerToo
Description: This site is TOO DAMN COOL!!! Try it, it's incredibly addicting XDD it can make even the most stupid little picture look all refined and pretty! Ahahaha well, mine is not exceptional, but it was one of my fast attempts...if you spend a little time with this you'd probably be able to make glorious pieces! It's so much fun XDD
( Uh-oh. Nipples. )

Title: Best Dugong Wishes
Series/Characters: Misha Poofie Dugongskij
Media: Pencil, pigment liner and felt-tip pen
Description: :D these are part of the birthday card I drew for my friend nimloth87 ♥ one of her presents was a dugong plush PLUS distance adoption of one of these chubby darlings, with WWF. She named him Misha Poofie Dugonskij (last name was suggested by me, modestely) and I personally think that it's AWESOME. I edited the text away, it was all in italian anyway!
( The word "dugong" derives from the Tagalog term dugong! *_* )

Title: Paratwa Umbrella
Series/Characters: None
Media: Photoshop
Description: "'cause when we play together we won't notice the bad weather"
Kimya Dawson - Singing Machine
( We are the world, so boys and girls, let's all collaborate )

Title: Nicolàs
Series/Characters: OC - Nicolàs
Media: Pencil, pigment liner and Painter
Description: XDDDD I'm a little ashamed when I post something SO lousy! But since in the last post I showed you all the new characters of our roleplay session except mine, I thought I should make up for it and post his sketch. This is Nicolàs! Bored to no end, that's the leitmotiv of his life. Don't worry, dear, I'll draw you better someday♥
( Like, whatever. )

And last but not least...I HAVE NEW PIGMENT LINERS!! Life is truly splendid.

I'm sorry, I know that I'm not commenting as regularly as I should, lately, but my free time comes and goes so fast =3= in any case, I always check livejournal and see everything! I don't want to miss your stuff, my lovelies♥ I'll catch up with it!

Title: Extracting tensions from sources unknown
Series/Characters: OC - Xue
Media: Pencil, pigment liner, felt-tip pen and Painter
Description: Remember this picture? This one I actually started months ago? YES, I finally coloured it! I always have troubles when I need to colour a picture with Xue because he just doesn't look good with normally saturated colours e_e that's why I enveloped him in darkness! Believe me, you do not want to face him in a dark room. This was so much fun to do~
( Random light is random. )

Title: Herculean cigar lady
Series/Characters: OC - Mepweretset
Media: Sai
Description: I used Sai for this because none of my pens is working properly anymore (next picture is a proof) e_e This is a clue of how desperate I was, because I usually never draw directly on the computer if I'm able to avoid it 8DD I need to get new supplies. This is Mepweretset (alias, MEPPA), Daphneargent's new OC who will make a couple with my Nicolàs! (I feel a little bad because my new character is the only one in this post that didn't get a picture 8DD) Be careful with her. She can crush your bones.
( She's POWERFUL >8U )

Title:  Distinguishing agreement
Series/Characters: OC - Liu and Bozdar
Media: Pencil, pigment liner and Photoshop
Description: Mrrrmmh. My pigment liner was running out of ink when I drew this one, you may probably notice it by the bottom of the picture "XD but I ended up playing with it a little, added some flat colour and a couple of brushes and I liked the way the result kind of fits the atmosphere in my head :3 These are Liu and Bozdar, respectively Greendruid and Daphneargent's OCs!
( C stands for both Commander and Crazy )

That'd be all for now! I missed drawing these days e_e this felt good!

...like the title says :|

Title: Lucky day in Hell
Series/Characters: Jiraishin - Kyoya Iida
Media: Pencil
Description: I recently re-read all Jiraishin (I believe it was translated as "Ice Blade", in english) which is definitely one of my favourite comics ever, as keiko1183 perfectly knows 8DD and I felt the urge of drawing a fanart :D♥ I can't believe that it's so little know, it's an incredibly powerful and twisted story, and its main character (the one I drew here) oozes charisma! ...but then again, that's me. I'm biased, because Tsutomu Takahashi is one of my favourite authors e_e but who can blame me? Jiraishin, Tetsuwan Girl, Sky High, Alive...give him a chance! He's brilliant ♥ Nevermind the fact that the art isn't exactly great in the first volumes XD
I'm really satisfied of how this picture came out, because I usually SUCK at working with pencil, but this time it came out pretty natural and I like the result! The most effort went on Iida's expression (or lack of 8D), while the background is a reference to the depiction of Iida's subconscious in volume 4. I'm so looking forward to see more of Jiraishin Diablo e__e
( A man with nothing to lose )

Title: Free to relax
Series/Characters: OC - Ardashir and Mary Lee
Media: Pencil, pigment liner
Description: Lots of mistakes, but it was a carefree picture to spend the evening with :D Daphneargent and I were finishing to roleplay these two, and she suggested me to give it a try and draw them. I always avoided drawing her Ardashir because I suck at drawing manly men, but I love him, so I gave up and tried 8D♥ Mary Lee looks so strange without coloured eyes.
( Win a war, win some quality time for yourself )

That's all for now e_e I finished the meme I had to do, but I'm considering the idea of colouring it, so maybe next time!

Mmmmh I'm not very active for what concerns drawing and such, but I managed to finish something today, and I had some silly older stuff as well :D Stupid degree thesis is stealing all my time e___e

Title: Dark little heaven at the top of the stairs
Series/Characters: OC- Aloysius and Bertrand
Media: Pencil, pigment liner, felt-tip pen and Painter
Description: Finally! My part of the art-trade with foxysquid (a costant presence in the latest posts XD) Here we have Prince Aloysius and Bertrand from Greatheart (which I love very very much♥♥♥) I actually finished the lineart ages ago, but I tried several times to colour it and never had a decent result. I've been without inspiration for a good while, but that other day I drew a li'l Aloysius and that triggered the willpower to finish this XD My dear, I really hope you like this!! I'm terrible at drawing real men (not to mention facial hair) but I tried my best!!XD It was really nice to draw these two♥ I'm looking forward to draw your characters again!! And again, here's the bigger version, if you want :3
( Take me like that, ruin it all, then build it again by the light in the hall )

Title: Kileona
Series/Characters: OC- Alihi
Media: Pencil and black ballpoint pen
Description: I actually made this some days ago, but I never found the time to post it...I don't even like it that much, so I didn't feel encouraged 8D The reason I made this was actually only boredom, I started the sketch but inked it more as an experiment with the pen than with serious intentions. I only liked his hair, I used to hate drawing curly hair but I'm slowly getting used to it |3
( Drawing curves with a pen is a big no no )

Title: Character Age Meme - Pupino
Series/Characters: Pupino♥
Media: Photoshop
Description: ...I'm sorry, I had to post this. I was being silly on evening, and filled this character meme drawing one of my plushes - who, of course, looks the same no matter what the age is. The fun fact isn't that I actually made something like this...but that I CAN'T EVEN DRAW SOMETHING THIS SIMPLE. Seriously, it doesn't look at all like this in real life XDDD FAIL, Ilwe, FAIL. But I had fun 8D
( I have an unhealthy affection for this little guy )

*crawls away tired*

I'm awfully in a hurry - I don't have much time these days, as you may have guessed from my lack of commenting XD but important business is important!!

Title: Lovestruck Aloysius
Series/Characters: OC- Aloysius
Media: Photoshop
Description: HAPPY BIRTHDAY foxysquid !!!!♥♥♥ I'm sorry for the late and for the little silly picture, you'd deserve better but that's how time is! çwç *sends lots of love to make up for it* hope you don't mind a little Aloysius (no doubts about who is he thinking about )
( Bertrand's effect )

°3° hope you're having a great time!!

Oh god oh god, if everything goes in the right way, this summer is going to be AWESOME and full of trips.
I love the whole world, and all its sights and sounds~♪

Title: Pretty in pink
Series/Characters: None
Media: Photoshop
Description: A little experiment I made! I tried this style without lineart only with super deformed pictures until now, but it's really a lot of fun and I wanted to try something a little more articulate, so I made this! I'm definitely going to use it again, I like its potential, even though I can't make the most of it XD Random character is random.
( I wish I knew how to even open a file with Illustrator )

Title: I would
Series/Characters: OC - Benjamin
Media: Pencil, ballpoint pen
Description: "But if I could tear his throat,
And spill his blood between my jaws,
And erase his name for good,
Don't you know that I would?
Don't you realize I wouldn't pause
That I would cut him down with my claws
If I could have somehow never let that happen?"
Okkervil River - Black
( Benjamin is NOT pleased. )

Title: Sneaky
Series/Characters: OC - Ilhel and A'mael
Media: Pencil, pigment liner
Description: Ahahaha, well, this...these are the two characters of my friends greendruid and daphneargent in our current d&d campaign. We like to joke and tell that my warrior, Alihi, keeps a little puppet that looks like one that both me and daphneargent have (and the one on the picture, of course. Except the clothes). So she asked me to draw her regal, stern elf A'mael not resisting the urge to hug it but not wanting to be caught in the act XD Alihi never notices a damn anything (DICE FAIL) but Ilhel is there, and a little nonplussed 8D
( LOVE TO THE PUPINO ♥ )

♥♥♥ I'm so tired of being restless and unsatisfied. TIME FOR HARMONY HARMONY OH LOVE.
