FINE, HERE'S YOUR TUMBLR.

Mood: Groggy

OKAY, I MADE IT.

And I am really confused. Someone teach me how to use Tumblr. Right now. Gah.

Also, I won't be following too many people. I mostly just want to follow art blogs. If you have an art blog, send it my way! :M If not, then I probably won't follow you. SORRY......... WE'RE STILL FRIENDS HERE, THOUGH! YEAH?
I'm doing this because I don't want to get distracted looking at stuff on Tumblr. I just want to look at pretty drawings! *u*

Short post, because I need to eat. :V YEP!
ALSO, I'M DONE WITH CLASSES AND FINALS!!!!!! 8D

Since Harvestmoonluvr and I were talking about boothin' at some con's artist alley next year or so, I thought it'd be a good idea to... y'know... actually make a portfolio or whatever...................

So I'm going to be drawing thumbnails for prints and stuff! 8D Also, question for you guys which I might've already asked, but will ask again: What kind of prints would you like to see from me? For instance:

• digital or traditional?
• soft shaded or cell shaded?
• colored pencil, or marker?
• what fandoms would you like seeing?
• would you by art of my OCs?

I'd love to put prints of my OCs, but... I don't think anyone'd buy them........ I'll probably have like, 1 SteGabe print at the table. Just one. Not even extra copies. Just one print.

As for fandoms I'm thinking of drawing for, here's what I'm doing:

• Fire Emblem (possibly including SSB designs)
• Tiger and Bunny
• Regular Show
• Madoka Magica
• Professor Layton
• Sailor Moon
• (maybe) Star Trek

Idk, it feels like a pretty good list. .3. I'll make sticker sets or something for fandoms I'm not too familiar with but are popular, like Dangan Ronpa.

SO YEP. That's that.

Also, here's a random picture of Noland in his pajamas I did the other day. I didn't feel like posting it to my Various Planning world on its own, so I guess it'll go here! 8D

TUMBLUH

GUH.
IDK IF I'M READY TO MAKE AN ART TUMBLR YET.
SOMEONE CONVINCE ME.

I keep opening Tumblr and being like, "I'm gonna make an account and post art and follow art people YEAH." but then I keep closing the page because I'VE AVOIDED TUMBLR FOR THIS LONG, IT WOULD FEEL LIKE I LOST...........
Aha.

In other news, my birthday was yesterday! 8D I did the very exciting staying-in-my-friend's-room-eating-pizza-and-drawing. Woo yeah.

About a week ago, my mom gave me an early birthday present: some ~*~Faber Castell Colored Pencils~*~! I'mma try to combine Crayola with Castell and figure out some new coloring stuff. >:V I haven't used them since I got them, but here's the first things I colored to test out the colored pencils:

They are super blendy. Some things that are confusing me is that they blend more like paints, or something. (??) As in, they respond better to complimentary color shading than crayolas. The one thing that's a little frustrating is that they don't erase like crayolas, but I guess that's because they're more like oil pastels or something. (Yeah, idk what I'm saying.)

OH! And classes just finished for me. I have a week and a half left for finals, but then it'll be SUMMER BREAK!!! 8D I'll try to upload more comics and finished works this summer!! :)

Have a Super Saturday. :V

GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES

Mood: Essay.
Currently working on: Essay...........

DID YOU KNOW. That Gabe looks really weird without his hair dye?

I don't understand. Maybe the non-blonde Gabe doesn't look weird to you, but I can't look at it without thinking for a second that it's not Gabe. o_____o

Normally I don't put WIPs in this world, but... meh. This didn't seem WIP-y enough.

Okay, essay time.

WOWZA.

Mood: So sleepy, but not in a bad mood

I was doing these freebies on Gaia just now, where I draw a person's OC with one of my OCs. The options were Noland, Chrystal, Stefan, and Gabe. Surprisingly, Out of the 15 I've drawn so far, Noland was picked for 8. THAT'S LIKE... MORE THAN HALF....
When I posted about this, someone told me the reason was this:

"I was like WOWZA! Noland is such a babe! everyone wants a piece of that hunk.
it's because he's a beefcake. we like beefcakes."

............
So there you go.
Just thought I'd brag a bit about having a beefcake character.
That's right, guys.
I'm.
the best.
/jk but I still think it's hilarious that someone said that

AND ON THAT NOTE,
GOOD NIGHT.
