    Elemental Magic is next BUT FOR TOMMORROW. It's been in my computer since Comicon ( I got the book for Nubba to help with his animation classes- But took pictures of the whole book for myself so I can improve on special effects for comics/illustration) but I been lazy to edit it.

    Also picking up this book today off amazon- http://parkablogs.com/content/book-review-imaginative-realism-how-paint-what-doesnt-exist
    It was recommended to me by this guy ♥ Who convinced me with Loom to go to Watts Atelier next summer once I settle in moving to California

    Also I'm being commissioned for some more Character Sheets. Neat!

    Also when we move  I want to find a place where I can either do kick boxing or some form of martial art. Too get me out and keep me fit. Maybe even belly dancing.

    me im simple person
    SO MUCH TOO DO STILL. Well not really just Air Mattress + Cleaning.

    Fuck he is so adorkable. Every time he comes and picks me up there is always a flower in his hand for me Roses or Tiger lilies. And artbooks, that boy ALWAYS buys me an artbook to take back home. Shadowline, (Iain Mc Caig!! ♥)  Sex and Science ( hahah this was awesome considering how low brow it was but the top notch animators that were in it ), Claire Wendlings Daisies ( I have almost allllllllll her books she is one of my top favorite artists ever), and so many golden others. And he just doesn't know what to do with himself so he's just a general mess of stumbling smiles.

    Aughglgghgl my cute little animator wife ♥

    I still want to make the Rosary walkcycle my icon, but he's like really bashful about putting his kickass animations up. He's actually pretty damn good. I've never seen his work cleaner then when he's animating. But he does it all traditional. When I was a guest at one of his animation classes I was able to do it too! I got to say traditional animation is more fun then on the computer. ALOT more room for mistakes but I had fun drawing a yawning minotaur. I was so sad when class was up because I wanted to finish his foot clomping while he was yawning.

    Also I might get some more DVD's for Christmas off Massive Black there are two I'm eyeing but I will patiently wait for a sale.

    Also since I'm usually trying to be the educational type with every LJ post-

    "The secret to capturing the essence of what you are looking at can be found in your high school yearbook.

    Fred Fixler would have us look at our high school yearbooks and find that page that has everyone in our grade standing together in one big group shot.

    "Can you find yourself?" he would ask. Yes, we could.

    "Can you find your friends?" Yeah.

    What's the point? Well, in those photos your head is almost the size of a pea - if not smaller! And yet, without seeing eyelashes, nostrils, pupils in the eyes, or any other details, you recognize people you haven't seen in years! Yet, most of us sit in front of a model drawing the most unimportant details and miss the simple overall shapes that form the essence of who we are observing.

    Details are not the answer.

    Thanks, Fred."

    With life drawing one book told me when your doing gesture study your studying how the masses move unique to them.  It's how your able to identify someone from very far away. And how that's essential to capturing the soul of that person. Just like how everyone has a unique way of shadows forming on our face due to our underlying form having light casted on it.

    Also unique silhouetting too, due to how everyones bodies are kind of different. There just alot to attribute to this.

    Also I want to write a dude about having 9 lives. Like he moved around and tried settling around in different places until he decided it wasn't him and on the 9th life he decided this was the one.  But then conflict occurs when his other lives come to haunt him. There is probably a book out on this already. IDK I came up with the ideal chatting with my sister on the way to the store.

    OH JAH!
    Ask me anything I will answer as silly as I am because I am a silly art girl on the internets.

    Now i am going to the bookstore to read comics for free. Because no one will bug a busty red-head in the comic section. I just..I belong there amoungst my other busty red-headed kin.

    Me:" I dont even know why I know you and associate with you OH WAIT you make me feel good about about myself ahaha"
    Nubba" 40 % of the time"
    Me: " AHAHA shut up im not THAT depressed, oh wait maybe I am :C"

    Really what were afraid of was, what if we knew of this warmth.
    So excite! 1 more week until Nubba is here.

    Then everyday we are going to be drawing around the clock to improve and work on our comic.

    I'm thinking about doing this sometime in the future when I settle down in CA and inviting artists over that I know to chill with me for a week or two and not worry about bills or food or whatever and just work on improving everyday. Or going over to see THEM with all my books and DVD's and SEVERE PASSION. And chill and do character designs and concept worlds and make with story telling times.
    I LOVE writing. I really do and it's a habit I forced on Nubba. Last night he told me his new story over the phone and it was the bees knees.

    I'm finding making fun with it is the best part. Inserting jokes here and there or drawing cartoon people over it climbing over the arms. Really all you have to do is make something entertaining for yourself and it's the easier thing to do. That and support.

    I have my kickass friends and family who support my career choice and know this is what makes me truly happy. I love them all. And I want to do the same for other people. If you get good fortune, you spread that good fortune.

    BUT UNTIL THEN.

    This guy is the goal I have for my backgrounds/environments. Well and Dylan Cole. I want to have 5 million babies with this man.

    Also I enjoy this artist too: http://jsm-art.com/blog/

    Man the french really love their greens, oranges, blues and pinks.

    I'm going to get my sticker done for Patched Together tonight and continue on Commissions and wrapping up my roughs. I did all the cards now its just the actual board layout.

    Though someone bought me a DA accountship for 3 months!? HOW NICE THANK YOU TOTAL STRANGER.

    Oh man heres some more fun blogs. More cartoony illustrator style but I looooveee this style.

    I love every style I am Ikage lover of all artages.

    Wakfu
    I am pretty silly and will feel bad if my plants start dieing so i been setting them outside but its so windy here in Virginia the poor things keep falling over.

    ANYWAYS- http://vialou.ovh.org/wakfu/doku.php
    Wakfu subs got updated up. There up to Episode 17 now.
    The main site streams the videos for free so there's no harm in just subtitling them.

    I would suggest using Jdownloader for this.
    You can put links in and it will do the timing/passcoding everything for you.

    Thought I would also mention, several of the artists who work on Wakfu have deviantart accounts. I've found a few, so why not link them here! You can find official art from character designs to the Mini Wakfu backgrounds... all kinds of fun things!

    Gueuzav - does character portraits for the main Wakfu game, also does promotional art

    Noacry - the artist behind the art for Les Gardiens

    Ntamak - Mini Wakfu ahoy!

    Also thanks for the perspective help gaissss

    Edit: Sorry I been so stressed out lately. My sister may or not have to go to surgery for a growth, but she's still going to surgery. There is this giant thing pushing on her thyroid glands and making her tonsils swell making it hard for her to breathe and eat solid food. It's just been getting worst.

    They did CT scans found nothing in her head so there going to jab a needle in her throat soon and find out what it is and see if they can remove it then or just surgery times.

    Also Steve invited me to a Chow Team for CA see you there!

    Also Expose 8 is calling for Entries

    Feb 22nd for an end date? I got this baby I can make a ton of pieces before then.
