Mood: Explain-y
SAI really is great for line art. Though I perfer Gimp for coloring
ahem... anyways, like I said, I feel the need to explain a lot about Damian. You can find his characer profile here, but I'll be going into more debth in this post. o3o Why? Because I remember things better when I write/type them down and can go back to see what I wrote.
Anyways.
This post is pretty much going to be really long and maybe boring, but filled with usless information. C: To fully understand it, you may need to read this and this. It's a lot of reading though, so it's not nessisary.
So um..
Spoilers for my Rock Band Comic are going to be in this post...
Ahem... this is going to be very hard to get started...
Dare's parents were born in England, and have lived there their whole life so far. Damian's parents were born in England, too. By the way, Damian's mom and Dare's mom are sisters. Oh, and Damian's mom and Damian's mom's mom didn't have a good relationship. Umm... Eventually, Dare's mom and Damian's mom both got husbands. :D Then Dare and Damian were born. (Damian's older by about 2 years.)
About 3 years after Dare was born is when a lot of things happen.
- Damian's parents get a divorce. (Honestly, I don't know the divorce laws in America, So chances are I won't be able to learn the British divorce laws...)
- Dare's parents are struggling with expenses. (For some reason...)
- Dare is "adopted" in a way by Damian's Mom. (She's like his legal guardian or something...)
- Dare and Damian's Mom move to Boston, Massachusetts in the US. (Where he currently lives.)
- Damian lives with his Dad in London. (Where he's lived until he moved out.)
Since Dare only lived in England for 3 years, he didn't aquire an English accent. (He doesn't have a Boston accent in my head, though...) For some reason, though, Damian's mom's accent went away too. :/ Or it's not noticable. Yeah.
I know that was hard to follow, but bare with me. xD If you read it over a few times, it makes a little sense.
Anyways, Dare doesn't know he has family back in England, and doesn't remember Damian. He also doesn't remember his parents too well. Why doesn't he care all that much? It might be his personality to blame. -3- I dunno.
Anyways, back in the UK, Damian is still somewhat in contact with his mom. He also knows who Dare is because his mom sends him pictures and stuff. :d Why? No reason.
Ummmm.....
So....
Eventually, when Dare joins THE BAND, they EVENTUALLY go on tour in Europe. And guess where they go first? :D
Yeah. London. :D And you'll never guess who he'll meet.
Yup. DAMIAN.
And then after talking for a while, Damian takes Dare to Dare's parent's house. Which is a total cliche. xD But whatever.
Well.
Now that THAT long explenation is over, I'M GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT DAMIAN'S PERSONALITY. Which is totally what I was supposed to be doing.
You may've read in his character profile that one of his special skills is pointing out the obvious.
Well. It is a truely usless skill indeed.
He's kind of like a person on twitter constantly updating their status. Except without the twitter part. (Sort of like that.)
Like when the door to his apartment is locked, he'll try to open it and may say something like, "Oh. The door's locked."
No duh, Damian. x3
Um... He's not motivated to do stuff. In school, his grades were good, but he didn't make a big effort to get like... EXTREMELY AWESOME grades.
Damian and Dare have the same eyecolor. :D Yay. They both got their eyes from their mom.
Damian's a lefty! :D Yay. Just a random trait.
I originally ment to spell Damian's name as Dameon. Turns out Dameon means "Son of the Devil". D,: I'm sorry, Damian.
What else...
Oh, he gets embarassed around anglophiles. (That's one of my vocabulary words. xD The link leads to the definition.)
And one last thing! Some of my friends call him Gaymian. Dx He's not gay, though. xd I knew he had it coming for him... I'm sorry Damian. xD;;
SO! I hope you had some sort of fun reading this. >_____> I'm so sorry it's so long. xD;;;
3000+ HUGS

PARTY IN THE COMMENT BOX. xDDDD
ACCENTS
Mood: I WANT TO KNOW (about accents)
Currenlty working on: MY NEW OC DAMION. YESS. He's gorgeous. (Well, maybe not gorgeous, but I think he's handsom. C:)
Recenlty added: Nicholay Paint
HEY. ANY BRITISH-ACCENT SPEAKERS OUT THERE? (That sounded kind of rude. I apologize.) Yeah. But if you're from the UK, I have a few questions about accents and the UK in general. I'm doing this to better understand my characters from different countries. I may do this with other places as well... So yeah. HERE I GO
By the way, the examples are (somewhat stereotypical) american variants of the questions. (if that makes sense...)
1) Have you ever tried to do an American accent impression? If so, what sounds are usually exaggerated and what words are commonly associated? (example: A typical amercian impression of an english accent exaggerates the "i" sound in "like" as "loik", makes the "a" sound like "ahh" and "oo" sound as "ew" (making bathroom "bahhthrewm".), and uses "refined" language. :/ Yeah.)
2) What are some different accents in the UK? (For this one, please tell me the general area it's in and if possible, find a recording so I know what it sounds like.) (Example: Boston/New England in Northeast America, southern accent is usually associated in Texas, ect...)
3) This is kind of my fault, but what's the difference between United Kingdom and Great Britain? xD;; I use them interchangably... is it kind of like how America and United States are used interchangably? :I
4) What do you call the United States? (USA, America, maybe even something completely different...?) Just curious... kind of like how I use both Great Britain and UK. -3- When I was in 4th grade, I used to think Great Britain and England were the same place. >_<;;
5) Oh, and I almost forgot. What are some popular slang words over there? xD;; I really have no clue.
So, uh... YEAH! It would be greatly appreciated if you could answer at least some of these questions. >3< IT WOULD BE IMMENSELY HELPFUL!! :DDDD
BY THE WAY!
I'M ABOUT 40 HUGS AWAY FROM 3000!!! Which is nishe (nice). :3
Dream
Mood: I have to pee.
Currenlty working on: STUFF, PUNK. xD

Hey guys. I bet that judging from the title, you think I"m going to be talking about my comic Dreams
But you're wrong! Ahaha. xD
I'm telling you about a dream I had about a month or 2 ago. (I don't think I told it to you yet.)
So. In this dream are the characters from Tales of the Abyss. Mostly Jade Curtiss.
Anyways.
So the Tales of the Abyss crew are underground, underneath this mansion-y place, looking for something. (I don't remember what.) So here's how the scene goes:
Jade: *His phone rings (I don't know why he has a phone.)*
Luke: Eh? Who's that, Jade?
Jade: *on the phone* Hello? *to Luke* It's my boyfriend.
Everyone: Boyfriend?!
*Later*
Jade: Look, guys!
<This weird human-sized frog standing on its hind legs and wearing a jester outfit walks in>
Jade: *Hugs the frog thing* It's my boyfriend! ♥♥
Everyone: What the heck? *sweatdrop*
The end
:D
Yeah.
That really happened in the dream.
Anyways, I feel the need to draw that. Along with other miscellanious comic strips. xD AND I WILL. JUST YOU WAIT.
>:[ This is my determind face.
>:{[ And this is my determind face with a mustache! 8D No, I don't have a mustache.
Coloring
Mood: HAPPEH
Currenlty working on: Pic of Luli (coloring), pic of Falorin, pic of Lucas
Recently added: Falorin (Line Art), Multitasking, Realism 3
HEY GUYS! I CAN COLOR (traditionally) AGAIN!!!!!!!! :DDDDDDD I'm so happeehhhh~~~
But you won't get to see my coloring until I finish that picture of Luli. C: Actually, I've gotten more than halfway through the coloring today! ^_^ Yay! :D So I'm really pleased about that...
Oh! And I sketched (and started inking) a picture of Lucas, like I said I would. xD (To know what I'm talking about, go here.) Yeah. I wasn't kidding. I really did want to draw him. xD His head was really hard to draw because it's so... ODDLY SHAPED....
Speaking of Lucas, this reminds me of a story that happened in school today. :D
So I was showing my picture of Lucas to my friends, and I was explaining who he was and stuff. Then my friend who doesn't even watch anime says "Oh, you mean he's the guy from the episode with the ship?" and I was like, "....YEAH!!" It was just really surprising that he new what I was talking about. xD;;
You: that was the stupidest story I've ever heard.
Oh.
Sorry, then.
Ahem. Yeah. LATERZ. x3
