Which really makes me wonder who keeps looking at my stuff when it's rarely changed in so long? XD;

Don't think that I'm complaining, far from it. I just...find it curious, is all. It's actually a little flattering to know that people're still looking at my stuff, even though it hasn't changed since I uploaded that picture of the Copper Dragon model I did.

But there will be new uploadings in the future. I'm going to get supplies later on tonight in preperation, so...keep on the look out. >3

So, I've broken 1k in page views, despite my small standing within the DA community. Sadly, I'm not as pleased as I thought I'd be, but...that's life. As of January 1st, 2008, I will have been living at my new location exactly a year. I'm still not going to school, unemployed (though I am working on fixing that), not willing to even try and submit something of my own creation just yet (I plan on moving the other stuff to the scraps area when I do, though), and I'm hungry.

Least there's one thing I can work on actively on that list. XD

In other news, I've cleaned out some of my account...namely the dumber pics that wern't really that good. I've also started running ideas about a new, slightly less random, sprite comic, but I'm still working out the kinks. Gaia, Soul Calibur 3 and RO are providing much needed/unwanted distractions from said comic, but I'm not too worried. Still need to figure out how I'm gonna sprite the main character, anyway...not to mention his weapon. I may actually, one day, just sit down, and sketch things out that are floating around in my head...like I said you never know. ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/6312555/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/6312555/ Wed, 24 Aug 2005 04:57:27 PDT ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/6312495/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/6312495/ Wed, 24 Aug 2005 04:44:18 PDT
Anyway...I think I've got self-esteem issues...not sure what brough that on, but I think what I thought was fixed, isn't. So...no more thinking for me. Stuff gives me headaches, anyway. >>;

Moving right along...I'm single again, and loathing it. Don't ask why, I just am. Guess I kinda like it when someone actually WANTS to consider what I think/how I feel about something...go figure.

Loving college, though...probably cause it just started. XD Yeah...game design...Wonder if Capcom'll be hiring once I get out...Maybe AD-X. Never know.

Sounds like a storm's brewing outside...which reminds me. Anyone who wants to play RO, but not have to pay, lemme know. I'm part of this freeserver, and I could use a party member or two. It's a no-go if you gotta ask what RO is, though. I'm picky like that...yeah.

...Ever wonder why people on RPGs don't bitch at you for just walking into their house, and taking their stuff? Like...burgulers and theifs never existed in their town. I think it'd be funny is, when you tried to look at something in someone's house, you'd get kicked out, and sent to jail for unlawful entry. That'd be amusing...and it'd teach those Main Characters, who think they own the place.

Hm...so much for a short update, huh? Though I guess it's kinda deserved, considering that I just NOW found out that someone posted a pic on the 8th. I blame Burger King...it saps teh strength. Why? Cause....it's sappy like that...yeah. That's the ticket. ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/4064970/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/4064970/ Tue, 14 Dec 2004 10:57:55 PST ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/3244340/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/3244340/ Mon, 30 Aug 2004 03:08:37 PDT hopefully, i'll get a job in a card shop of some sort...."hopefully" being the key word. i never realized how taxing it was to get a job till now. most of the places i've been, it's either "we're not hiring right now," or "we'll call you to set up an appointment," which none have. x_x
next year'll be interesting, though...going to a gaming college, where you learn how to make the little devils. XD that's gonna be fun there. =^^= from storylines, to character profiles, to level designing, to scripts...the whole nine yards (where did that phrase come from, anyway? o.o''''). i'm gonna try to focus more on the writting part, like the script and such. ^^ but truth be told, i'm a little worried about it. i've not had the best of school experiences, and i know little to nothing about their requirements, and i've still not taken my ACTs. x_x gotta do that before anything, but first: driver's licence! ^^' just gotta pass the test, and it's mine. XD i'm tempted to make some kinda menicial face at the camera when they take the pic, for laughs....maybe i'll wear my cat ears, instead. XD
anime-wise, i just recently got into "Fruits Basket", which is, surprisingly, a very good anime. the dub script writter stayed as close as possible to the japanese version, and the characters are quite amusing. ^^ i've also found the anime version of the ".hack//legend of twilight", which need major voice actor repair....BOTH versions. x_x there's just something about rena's voice that...grates my nerves like a block of cheese. >> but seeing the werewolf character in full color's a plus. =^^= when reading the manga, i easily got confused as to what was flesh, and what was clothing, which is hard for anybody when your clothing is skin-tight, and you're displayed in black and white. XD i've also gotten into FMA (full metal alchemist, for those that don't know), and i love it! XD i'm only up to episode 45, and i can't comment on the dub version for...."other" reasons, but it's an awesome anime. ^^ i wonder who got the licence for it. it can be a bit on the heavy side at some points, but it lightens up just as quickly. ^^
goodness...looks like a lot more's been going on then i though. ^^' just goes to show what happens when i start rambling, eh? i betcha this is gonna look tiny when it hits the full screen thing. XD it usually does. ^^' ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/2783539/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/2783539/ Thu, 01 Jul 2004 21:29:33 PDT

For those of you who actually read these things: thanks...it's the least thing I can say. I'm not a very artsy person, and I guess you cold say I only shine when I write things. And now...the ranting.

Villians, in my opinion, are under appreciated, and the heros always get the praise when the villian deserves it more. Take any thing for example that has a good/evil conflict. This is what the hero does: stops the villian; this is _some_ of the things that the villian does: hire lackies, build lair of death and destruction, plan world control, develope means of control, and try to stop the hero. Now tell me: who has the most things to do? I know there are those of you who say that the hero has more things to do, but heros don't have back-ups either. They have teams, while villians go in a sort-of chain of command usually. You get rid of one villian, and another, more powerful one takes his/her place. Heros, on the other hand....well, you get rid of them, and that's it. So those that praise the heros without question...give the villian a chance too. After all, they're what make heros.

And now...for the second part. As I mentioned earlier, and noted in the title, this was also an apoloigy. In my last rant, I had said something about artist block, and how to get around it. Well....a dear friend of mine took it sourly, and left me a comment about it. I can see where she was comming from with it, but I was only trying to help. In a sense...I was a villian, and she the hero. Jinky...I don't know if you even care enough to read what I have to say, but I'm sorry...I really am. I never ment any harm in what I said, and yeah...I've never had artist block before...but how can one that doesn't draw get what aflicts those that do? And don't you think it hurts me to see such beautiful artwork, and know that I could never compair even with a doodle because I can't even get a stick figure down on paper without messing up? Again...I'm deeply and truely sorry. Now if you'll excuse me....I need to crawl under a rock for a while and re-evaluate how I look at life. ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1739485/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1739485/ Sun, 25 Jan 2004 13:57:36 PST
Deviantart is a place for artists to gather and show everyong else what they can do, right? well...it seems to me that no matter how good the drawing, there's _always_ something to gripe about, weither it be that the head's too large, or the hands came out wrong, or it could be just the coloring. it's not the end of the world! so you sorta goofed up on one picture in your eyes...big deal! try looking at it from the point of view of someone who can't draw...from someone who _wishes_ he could draw. the best opinions come from those who know little about the craft, for they are the only ones who cantruely appreciate the craft, instead of those who practice the craft, and know of the hardships they take.
also....artists are people too. they're lives don't revolve around the sketchpad, and many people seem to forget that. artists are people too...they eat, and breath, and live, and die, and love, and cry (and that rhymed :S) just like everyone else.
and since i'm talking about artists, i'll get to artist block a bit. IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUIS. if you can't thik of anything to draw, so what? go do something else till you get inspired to draw. that's all. i'm more of a writter, and when i can't think of the next quotation to put in a story, i put that on hold, and go do something else till i can find that next line. it's that easy.
all and all, both artists and their on-lookers both need to ease up about drawing. on-lookers need to realize that artists need breaks too, and artists need to stop taking drawing so seriously. to be perfectly honest, i don't have a concrete reason why i signed up for a DA account. i mean...i can't draw, so why am i here, right? i still don't know, but seeing all the artist's works posted here makes me want to learn to draw even more.

and as i said earlier...next one's on villians...i promise ^^ ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1684954/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1684954/ Thu, 15 Jan 2004 12:54:59 PST
first off: Zero shouldn't have that big of a fan base. it's rediculous how random girls, and some guys ^^', swoon over him cause he's got looks, blonde hair, and a big sword. that that last bit however you want. ^^''''''

Secondly: god i hate not being able to use my scanner! it's so annoying...but then again, maybe i should stop gripping about it, and actually upload the TWAIN (Technology With An Interesting Name...i kid you not, that's what TWAIN stands for) stuff to the comp ^^'''

Thirdly: going back to what i said earlier about Zero, he also seems himself too highly, and frankly, it's annoying x_x. and his personality sucks. >> Gate, however, has an excelent personality, and too few a fangirl fan base. WHAT'S UP WITH THAT? the one thing, though, that Gate's fangirls are loyal (i hope), while Zero's flip-flop like he's a fad! it's amusing just to think about it. ^^

and last, but most importantly: Jell-o is the gelatain of life ^^ it rules all!

that's all for now...next time: a well deserved rant on how villians are sorely over looked and mistreated. ^^ byes! ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1637691/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1637691/ Tue, 06 Jan 2004 10:30:50 PST > ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1521643/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1521643/ Thu, 11 Dec 2003 16:00:44 PST sad thing is, though, i can only work on females, and i need to work on feet ^^'), i'll scan them, and post stuff! finally! ]]> ~Hiaki http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1495425/ http://Hiaki.deviantart.com/journal/1495425/ Fri, 05 Dec 2003 18:06:30 PST Yay for 18!
