Planning for stories and stuff.
Word, dawg.

note: this intro hasn't been thoroughly updated in a couple years

This is a world I made mostly for my own use, but I made it a public world anyways. I'll be posting things about story outlines, my characters, my comics (including fan comics), WIPs, ect... It's pretty much a world where I can store information and/or plan things. xD

Below are short descriptions of my stories to help you know what's going on. xD It also shows which characters are in which story, along with their extended profile if I have one made. Some stories aren't mentioned because I don't work on/think about them often. Therefore, not all of my characters are mentioned.

SEASON'S GREETINGS

...is what I would say if it wasn't already past the new year. HAPPY NEW YEAR, ANYWAY. Sorry it's been so long since I've posted. orz The internet in my hotel room is really bad. I'm in the lounge right now where the internet is better, but there ...

Stuff Stuff Stuff

MAN. I feel like I need to post a more character/story-planning type of post to break up all these sketch/etc dumps. Maybe later this week. FOR NOW, HAVE SOME MISCELLANEOUS DRAWINGS.

I hadn't drawn with my tablet in a while, and this was the first thing I drew. ??? Idk, pointless Noland.

I finished the line art for that one sketch!! WOW. Lining wasn't nearly as hard as I expected to be, actually. Haha. NOW I JUST GOTTA COLOR...!!!!!! Idk when I'm gonna get the chance to really sit down and color this, though, since I'm trying to work on cosplay stuff for the next couple weeks. -u-/

WAUGH, SORRY FOR THE SWEARING... I usually try to keep stuff pretty PG rated for theO, but. Eh. Too lazy to censor. orz It's actually lyrics to I'm The Best by Nicki Minaj, because it's a total O. J. song imo. :^D
Anyway, since I've been using O. J. in the TWEWY role play on theO, I thought I'd draw him to help me get in the O. J. Zone. (?) Idk, chat-based role plays are harder than I expected...!!! It's hard to come up with stuff to say on the spot, haha.

More Noland! This is kind of irrelevant, but I've been wanting to try out some new brushes for SAI. I'm mentioning this because I used a small brush for this drawing, which is something I do every so often to try to break up the monotony of digital drawing. orz If anyone knows of any good SAI brush settings, let me know...!!! *u*;;

Prue's head is so hard for me to draw!!!! I think I'm getting to the point where I feel like I can get better at drawing her if I draw her more, though. (? Weird sentence.) We're getting there, Prue. We're getting there.
Also, I can't decide if I want to draw her with lipstick more often, or not.

Idk if you remember Charlotte since I draw the Nerdy and Jock kids so sparsely, but here she is. The gr8 thing about her is that I can draw all the kool klothez I liked back in 8th and 9th grade. 8^D

Here's a little thing I drew for same-sex marriage legalization in the US. :^D I was going to post it to my portfolio, but deemed it too sloppy;;; But yeah.
I drew Tomato and Gabe because they'd probably be the most likely to celebrate. I can't really see Stefan celebrating it up because he's a poop, haha. :^D;;; BUT UH, YEP! Sorry Tomato looks freakishly young, here... I haven't drawn him in a long time. orz I NEED TO UPDATE OFAV!

Okay, I have to go eat, so I'm gonna go now. Thanks for viewing!

More Stuff

These titles are getting worse. Bleh.
Here's some stuff I've drawn over the past couple weeks. :v Also, sorry for the weird bored tone in this post, idk what's up, haha;;

I drew this because I wanted to see how exactly I draw Noland when I'm not doodling. ...yeah, idk what else to say. -u-b

I drew this because I wanted to doodle Noland. ...still not much to say;;;

Character ref of O. J. I made for KASA'S ROLE PLAY, WHICH YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT!!! 8D Yeh.
Idk why O. J. is just like PEACE SIGN all the time. orz POSES ARE HARD!!!

Some thing of Gabe that looks off to me, and idk why...!! Idk, his eye is too low or something.
All the drawings in this post so far aren't even ones I feel like I should be posting, but am because I have nothing else to post. orz

Here's a character ref I made for Charlotte! She feels so short to me. WHICH... I GUESS IS OKAY, SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE PRETTY SHORT.
Charlotte basically looks like this one girl I sat across from in art class in high school, except a little more daring (?) with her clothing. :V Though idk, I feel like Charlotte's clothes are pretty normal. Maybe I'm just used to drawing and looking at them.
blee blah.

Stef, my boy. Expressions are kind of hard to do on your long, pointy face...
I feel like I need to go and practice expressions some more, or just head angles in general. I STILL CAN'T UNDERSTAND THE LOOKING UP ANGLE, YET, I'VE BEEN LOOKING AT PICTURES AND TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT SINCE LIKE SENIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL...
But uh, yeah. I like drawing Stefan's expressions, though. He's always so annoyed, aha;;;

Oh, not really a new thing I drew or anything, but I went and printed this. It's a lot darker than how it looked on my computer, but I think the colors still look pretty good! :V
Now I finally have some SteGabe for my wall, hoo hah hah. -u-

Oh hey, I drew this this morning! I'm experimenting with using a smaller pen size and a sketchier line art, to see what the outcome is like. :V It's pretty fun to work with, and a lot less stressful than how I normally do line art with SAI's pen tool, but I'm still not sure what it's going to look like in the end. Hopefully it'll look good...!
But yeah, Roy. I was in the mood to draw him. The legs and his tunic are tripping me up, though;;; Hope it turns out okay.

...YAH, that's all I've got for you today. BE COOL, MY FOOL. B)

Some Noland Stuff + New Character

Idk why the *u* face has been my smiley of choice, lately, but I have indeed been using it a lot in my posts and things. It just kind of happened...;;; ~*~STARS IN MY EYES~*~
Anyway.

I'm really behind in posting my tumblr doodles to theO, but I will post them all!! (Sorry to those of you who follow my tumblr and have already seen them;;; I do this not just so the people not following my tumblr see my sketches, but also so I can add longer footnotes/commentary on my sketches. BECAUSE. I LOVE TALKING ABOUT MY OCS;;;)
For now, have some Noland sketches from this past school year, and a new character that's part of the Nerdy and Jock crew.

I wrote that Noland doesn't like many sweets, but I think it actually goes like this: He tells people he doesn't care much for sweets, but if offered a dessert, he'll always eat it. *¬*
Stefan honestly does dislike sweets, though. I LOVE SWEETS, SO IDK HOW THIS IS EVEN POSSIBLE, BUT...
My mom also dislikes sweets. I've mentioned before, but I use my mom as reference for a lot of Stefan things... >3>;;;

If I ever get around to doing anything with Teach Me Something Good, there's this one scene or series of scenes or something where Chrys invites Noland to an amusement park and stuff goes down there. I'd really like working on Teach Me Something Good because I think it'd actually be a pretty interesting story/comic/idk what... but yeah, I just don't really feel like I can take the time to draw/write it, yet.

Some random Noland. I was trying to get a handle on his body type. I STILL STRUGGLE SO HARD, BRO... ""orz Consistency is not my strong point. :D;

This was supposed to be like some chapter cover illustration, or something. Maybe I just wanted to draw Noland in a bowtie. I. Don't. Know.... >3>;
I've briefly mentioned the scene where Noland gets asked on a date by a fellow teacher. That fellow teacher is, indeed, Prue. :V This is another scene thing that I'd like to draw/write, if I wasn't hilariously lazy. -u-b

Another chapter cover illustration thing. This pic is also kind of spoilers that I haven't mentioned, yet. I don't want to reveal to much about this, because the ending-ish part of Teach Me Something Good can come off as very "I wanted this to be unnecessarily dramatic hoo hoo look at this story"...;;; I've considered taking out this part so many times... and I still might, idk yet. "orz
(Btw, Teach Me Something Good ends around the time that Chrystal graduates, but Noland and Prue's story continues for years after TMSG.)
The title-word-stuff comes from this band from the 50's called Nolan Strong and the Diablos. :^D I only know about them because I googled Noland Strong this one time...

Also spoilers of the same nature as the previous pic, but yeah. I'mma just leave this here... :V;;;

LASTLY, here's a pic of the new character: Ned's best friend, Charlotte! 8D;

And I'm too lazy to come up with new commentary on this, so I'mma copy and paste this up, yo. >:V
So, uh. Ned has a best friend, and this is her. I feel like I haven’t designed a character like this since 2009, or something. xD MULTIPLE BELTS. CRAZY PANTS. LOTS OF BRACELETS. HAIR OVER THE EYE!!!!
Anyway, yeah. This is Ned’s best friend since 6th grade, and her name’s Charlotte Han. She’s some sort of voice of reason to Ned’s crazy hyper fool thing. Maybe.
I’m so bad at “scene” fashion, but I kind of think it’s pretty cool looking. Tacky, for sure, but SOMETIMES, YOU JUST DIG THE TACKY.

THAT'S ALL FOR NOW! Thanks for viewing, as always~~~ ;3;
