Welcome to my little corner of The Otaku!


Let me introduce myself. I sign my art as "Kasey-chan", so feel free to call me that. My interest in drawing started when my sister and I went down to the book store and we discovered How-To-Draw-Anime books. It took off from there.
When I'm not scribbling away I am pursuing work in theatrical properties, spending way too much time on Netflix, watching too much TV, and wishing radioactive waste really did give people superpowers.

Here's some of my favorite things :).

Anime: Miyazaki's works, Tokyo Godfathers, Astro Boy (2003)
Manga: Rurouni Kenshin and Hana Kimi
American Cartoons: Batman: The Animated Series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Venture Brothers, Gravity Falls, Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated
TV Shows: Merlin (BBC), Firefly, Mystery Science Theater 3000
Movies: The Secret of Kells, The Adventures of Tintin, X-Men: First Class, The Iron Giant, Muppet Treasure Island, Treasure Planet, RoboGeisha, Sharktopus
Books: Pride and Prejudice, Northanger Abbey,Jane Eyre
Colors: Green!
Superheroes: Batman and Spiderman

The Post That Goes Like This.

Hello all! Well the results of the Valentines Day contest came out, and even though I only got an honorable mention, I'm pretty darn happy about that. Though I do admit, it's always a little disappointing to put a good amount of effort into something and have no reward. But that's my selfish side talking, I guess. I didn't draw it to win money, after all. And it's not like it didn't get recognized, so over all, I'm pretty satisfied with how I did. And congrats mewmewlover55! You deserve it ^_^.
Yup so in other art news, My sis and I completed our brother's birthday poster! Huzzah for Avatar the Last Airbender! I'll be posting that either tonight or tomorrow. Also, I'm working on my contest entry for Oji Nezumi's contest. I'm having a lot of fun with it, though I'm pretty sure it won't win. But oh well, it's still fun to work with. I don't think I've drawn a fairy since my "autumn fairy" I drew like last year 0.o. Yup I also have a siren (like the mythical evil singing mermaids) in the works too. I'm done inking her.
As for fan manga, a subject that has not been talked about for far too long. hee. Weeellll, I desperately want to start one up again, but I have no time. And I have an idea for a few new mangas, but I can decide which one to go for. Maybe I should put up a vote or something on my fan manga world (which, in had it existed in real life, would have a nice collection of cobwebs by now). If you guys are up for a vote. But usually my contests and such don't turn out so hot due to a lack of interest. huzzah. so if I end up doing that, will you guys vote?
and I have to go now. I hope to go around and comment later. Hopefully I'll get around to it. But my life is rather hectic now, which is mostly due to me being assistant stage manager in our upcoming musical, Spitfire Grill. From about 6-9 I'm at practice. After that, I like to goof off with my friends. Plus I have a job in the theatre shop (where we construct and paint all of our sets/props also costumes), which I want to work more at, because it's fun. ^_^. So that's my life at the moment.

The Mad Life of an Actress.

Okay, so this is has been my life in the past week: I need to find two monologues for my Basic Movement class, a monologue and a song for an audition, write a paper, do the play twice on Friday, and other schoolwork. Plus I need to start looking for summer jobs and on top of that I'm getting sick. All I need to do is last tonight and until Sunday afternoon, then I can get as sick as I want. So long as I don't have to do a show wile I'm sniffling and have a sore throat. Well, at least I'm managing to relax and get some art done. I posted two new pics this week alone. yay! My sis and I are also working on a big pic for my little brother. We're giving it to him for his birthday. Last year was our Zelda pic, if some of you remember that one. This year it's Avatar: The Last Airbender. We watched the entire series and it was so much fun. ^_^
Yup so in other news...happy Valentines Day! Even though I'm single, I can spend today focusing on those I love as friends and family. Also, I have a legitimate excuse to eat chocolate lol. Yup, so my friend's mom took our little gang out for Thai food, which was AMAZING!!! And we got roses from the people at the restaurant, it was soo cute ^_^. We also found an Asian food mart right by the Thai place, which was a super exciting find. Now daifuku, pockey, and sushi ingredients are just a short drive away ^_^.
Yup so I have an entry in the Otaku's Valentines Day contest. Please go view it on hugkiss and vote for it, if possible. Maybe fav it, if that's how you do it.
I hope to check up on you guys.

have fun Otaku-ing!

Oooohhhh! The Big Blue Wet Thing!

Yup, well I've been pretty busy since my last post. The play is officially starting tomorrow night! Ah! However, I'm more excited than I am nervous, because practice has been running incredibly smoothly. We only do one rehearsal per night. Although yesterday a fellow cast member had a headache, so some of the other theatre people decided to give him prescription motrin. The only problem is, the girl who gave it to him is pretty much unaffected my normal levels of practically any kind of medicine. So he got 800mgs of it, 600mgs more than the normal dose. Hee hee. That got him into a dazed stupor that lasted pretty much the whole day and he totally zoned out in practice. It stressed my director out but it gave us all a good giggle. Oh f.y.i., he's the only guy who is a freshmen theatre major, so he really takes a lot of crap. Oh well, he knows he loves it.
Yup, anyway, in art news...I have like 50 bazillion things to draw! Okay, so that was a bit of an overstatement, but I seriously do have a lot of things to draw. I need to get Valentines pics drawn for my friends, and three contest entries. Also fun little things I'm drawing for my friends. Yes, so I really hope I'll get all of this done on time.
Yup so that was my oh so interesting window into my life.
I hope to see what you all are up to.
This pic made me laugh pretty hard. Poking fun at Keanu Reeves has become one of my favorite things to do ^_^.

have fun otaku-ing!
