Hey guys!
Wow, seems like forever since I last posted. Sorry about that. But I finally have some great news (for me lol)
MY TABLET NOW WORKS LIKE IT'S SUPPOSED TO!!! *dances* See, my tablet was supposed to be pressurized, but when I used it, it wasn't! (Note the consistent even lines on my digital artworks) and so I went through this whole escapade to finding out why it wasn't pressurized (a whole friggen year later, why am I so slow at these things?) and now it is!! YAY!! lol
On another note, I've been playing around with watercolors, they're really fun to use, my next project with them is trying to use them with color pencils and copic markers. I've found (from reading through a whole bunch of artbooks (like the FMA one, or the Chobits one, which I own, and my friend's loveless one...)) that most artists actually use more than one medium in one art piece. So it's not just acrylics (which I'll buy soon) or just watercolors, but a mixture of them in the picture to add depth.
And also, I've fallen in love with an anime/manga. Ever heard of "Soul Eater"? I watched a few episodes at the beginning of the year, kinda liked it, but wasn't really hyped up about it, then I started reading more and more and more, and by god is it fantastic. I've never read a whole 64 chapters (with about 40 pages in each) in three days nor have I ever watched 27 episodes in one day in my life. But it was so fun, the characters are amazing, and guess what? NO WIMPY FEMALE CHARACTERS!! WOOOTS! Maka is friggen amazing, I fanboy her. She's just to epic for words. lol (She's the first female character I've ever really gotten this happy about). So yah...
On a bad note with manga, Eyeshield 21 ended, and in my book, kinda bad. I mean, it was a decent ending, it wasn't like "OMG FAIL!" but it wasn't like "OMG EPIC" either. It really didn't draw together loose ends and it kinda left you with this "huuuuuh?" expression, and I don't like having that. I thought they could have ended it alot better (I won't say what happened for those who haven't read it yet, or aren't up to date). BUT GODDAMIT COULDN'T YOU HAVE AT LEAST TOLD US IF HIRUMA AND MAMORI GOT TOGETHER!!
Anyhoo....
I'm not emo anymore! lol I know for a while there my posts were filled with emo tears, but I'm pretty happy, school is about to end and I could use the break. I only have monday and tuesday left, and both are half days. Man, I'm going to be a senior! O_O That's so scary, considering I came onto this site as a freshman! I was fourteen! FOURTEEN! (Well, kinda, in like, three weeks I was turning fifteen, but that's beside the point). Scary how time flies. And is it ironic that I was more popular when my art wasn't as good? Hm...lol
Have a great day everyone!
(I'll give a cookie to whoever can guess what my next world theme will be!)
