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 are no power outlets, which is why I haven't really been able to get on my computer. orz BUT UH... YEP. Here's some things I've drawn, as usual. :^D

THERE'S LIKE... A WEIRD AMOUNT OF LAFAYETTE IN THIS POST. I honestly did not expect to care about Lafayette as a character, I'm actually pretty surprised with how much I'm drawing him;;; HOPE Y'ALL DON'T MIND, HAHA.

Dmitri, Jessica, and Charlotte. :Y I don't draw Charlotte enough;;; IDK SHE'S DIFFICULT.
By the way, before I made Lafayette a character, I was originally considering on just rounding out the couples in Nerdy and Jock by making these three a poly relationship. :Y (LAZY) My original original plan was to have Jessica and Dmitri be a thing, and make another girl character to be Charlotte's girlfriend. But I couldn't think of another girl character... and I kind of liked Charlotte and Jessica together......... And I can't really see Charlotte and Dmitri as having any chemistry, so I don't think the three of them dating would work out. :U
Eventually I made Lafayette, with the intention of him being the "girl character" to pair with Charlotte, but FOR SOME REASON? HE ENDED UP BEING DMITRI'S FRIEND...????? Honestly I don't remember why that happened. I like Dmitri's and Lafayette's dynamic, though, so that's good. It's still canon for Dmitri to have a crush on Jessica, though. :^Y
But yeah, there's that blab. I feel like I could say more, but IN REALITY I SHOULD JUST DRAW COMICS TO EXPLAIN THESE RELATIONSHIPS. "orz

Aaand here's Dmitri and Lafayette. MAN, I HATE DRAWING DMITRI'S LEGS. Idk what it is about his stupid shorts, but they make drawings legs so asymmetrical and difficult. :^|

Someone on tumblr asked me to draw Gaius, so here we are. :^D I actually don't really like drawing FE characters. orz THE OUTFITS... ARE SUCH A PAIN.....!!!!

Drew this when I got to Tokyo. It's an outfit smilar to something I saw someone wearing. :^Y TOKYO GIRLS ARE FREAKISHLY FASHIONABLE...!!!

Also saw a girl in a winter school uniform at the train station in Tokyo, so I drew it on Lafayette for some reason. I like the color and sleeve length on the winter uniform. :^D
SPEAKING OF SCHOOL UNIFORMS...
MY INTEREST IN ANIME/MANGA/VIDEO GAMES FEELS 10000x MORE EMBARRASSING HERE IN JAPAN THAN IT DOES IN AMERICA.
???????
It's true there's a lot more anime/manga merchandise in Japan, but it just feels so much more judge-y here if you're interested in it as an adult, and especially as a foreigner. xux/;;;;; MAYBE I'M JUST IMAGINING IT B/C NO ONE'S SAID ANYTHING... but that's just the feeling I get. "orz

Dmitri and my never ending struggle with thin lines. I like drawing Dmitri's pointy ears. :Y Stefan used to be my pointiest individual, but I think Dmitri is pointier. -u-/ (???? idk)

Some doodles of Laf and Dmitri as kids. I'm thinking of using the bottom picture's dialogue as part of a short comic with the two of them. :^D I saw a comic drawing event on tumblr for January, so I'm gonna try and participate! *U*9
Though I wonder if I should be doing other stuff, though;;; OH WELL...

Cleaned up sketch that I finished the other day! Gonna try and color this once I get back home and have a scanner, since I haven't done a finished pic of any of my characters in a while. ;o
I forgot Dmitri's tuft of hair in front of his hat when I took this picture, but I added it in. I KNOW YOU WERE JUST SO WORRIED ABOUT IT, SO... never fear. B)

Okay yeah, that's all I've got. Might start working on thumbnailing comic pages or studying vocab, since I have time before bed. :^D Thanks for viewing!
