Anyway, I got my mark for the comic on friday. 20 out 0f 20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 100%!!!!!!!!!!111 Full Marks! You can't believe how happy I amXD I'm litterally overflowing with joy Plus it is now the Christmas season, so today I went shopping and bought some Xmas items to bring home for my Mum and Brother . I got Stockings, two orniments, and randomly a long arm stapler(we've been looking for one forever). Plus I got a Santa hat and some nice arm/leg warmers
I have also tried my hand at riffing. If you're not sure what "Riffs" are, got to rifftrax.com or look up Mystery Science Theatre 3000 on Youtube. Basically it's funny running commentary for moives. I did it for Transformers G1 Ultimate Doom parts 2&3. My first attempt was crappy because I was using the mic in my laptop, and I wasn't close to the tv. But I bought a headset and sat right next to the tv. I'm doing this while watching Transformers on Teletoon retro. Even though I own the first season
Classes for term one are finishing this week. And boy we've had A LOT of assignments, I've nearly lost my mind doing them. and then it's a week of nothing, then I go home for the Holidays for 2 weeks. So I'll be packing and cleaning up around where i live.
Also, at school we;re going to be doing Art Jams. That's where the Media Studies class(My class), the ANimation students and 3D studnets can get together and work on independant projects, or work on already existing projects. We'll be starting that up next month. I can't wait, because that's when I'll be starting up my Steampunk comic, and also I'll be working on NIKATA aswell. Sorry about not posting NIKATA, there's been too many stories about Art theft that's scared me too much to put it up.
I hope everyone is doing well, and if you're haveing a crappy day/week/month I send hugs
Plus I find it funny that i have 117 pics up, and the 117th one was a HALO oriented pictureXD Believe or not, I did not plan that.
Anywhoo, I wish everyone a Merry Christmas, Happy Hannikah(please correct if I spelt that wrong), um Happy Kawanza(not sure if there's a specific way of phrasing that), a wonderful winter Solstice, and all round Happy Holidays
I'll post around Christmas, probably to talk about what i got as presentsX3

Unfortunetly I had to watch " Grave of the Fireflies" Today for said class. One of the saddest movies I've ever seen. I managed not to cry while watching(though I was VERY close), the problem is that the English dub is crappy, and there were points where I wasn't sure if I should cry, or laugh. Never watching that movie again. I'm into happy endings and bright colours.
Only one more month and I get to go home for Christmas I need to get my X-mas shopping done this month so I don't have to worry about it later. Plus I get to go to Mum's place for the holidays, though I'm just going to be sleeping through most of it. When I'm not being huggedXD
Aaaaaaaaaand there's the fact that besides my Mum, and Bro, no one in my family knows that I had my hair cut. Yes, my signature Braid(for those who know my personally) is GONE. It's just long enough to pull back slightly. I had it cut for Halloween. I was Coraline. And for the Haunted House at school, I was Little Red Riding Hood. I had a plastic Combat Knife while I was doing it. I looked pretty damn creepyXD So, it's going to be fun seeing the reactions of my family when I walk in with my short, dark blue hair. Heheheehhehehhehehe.
Besides all that I've been pretty tired.
I comissioned to make me a Metabee Plushie Which makes me really happy. And i should be getting Bee around next month at the latest. So there WILL be pics of my squishie, lovable Bee XD
I'll be posting stuff soon, once things have calmed done enough for me to have soem more free time.

And I finally got to open up Drossel!XD I've taken a lot of photos yesterday and will be posting pretty soon.
Beingin my new room is pretty cool. My Mum bought me a new blanket and pillow, plus she put together a make shit desk for me. Though most of my stuff is back at the house, so it's pretty baren.
Oh, and for the Haunted House at school, we need to dress up. I'm going to be Coraline, which means I'm getting my hair cut short and dyed blue. This will be a shock to people who actually know me because I've always had my hair long and in a braid. But I think it will be anice change for. Also that's how I want my haoi rto be for the next Animaritime for my Hardsuit custom costume.
I'll be posting a new journal pretty soon after I get back to school. And pics of Drossel aswell.

I've gotten so much better since I started. As some have heared I got the part for Hikaru in the Medabots fan movie that's being done by When it comes out you all MUST watch it. You guys gotta show your support!XD
I would like to send a HUGE thank you to everyone who read my lst journal, commented, and sent hugs
I`m going home on Friday for Thanks Giving, and my Drossel Figma is waiting for meXD ooooh so excited!
Oh and stay tuned, My comic Magnus Armor NIKATA shall be on DA shortly. I finally drew pages and they just need to be inked and colouredétoned
I`m back in the Game

And no worries it's nothing any of you guys have done. So if some of my responses seem like I'm upset, trust me, it's nothing you have done or said.
The next Haloid pages are on stand by for a bit. But hopefully I'll get to drawing in between packing. I'm working on how I'm going to be drawing Samus, and trying to not make her look like a kid.
Once I get to college, I'm going to be doing a photo a day thing with the figures that I'll be taking with me. The was heavily, if not completely inspired by 's gallery. And I'll be a bit photo crazy when Figma Drossel is finally available to order from Hobby Link Japan.
Next week my Mum and I are going up to Miramichi to look for a place where I can live. Hopfeully things will work out ok on that front. I don't want to move a whole bunch of times like last year. And then I'll be moving up there at the end of this month. Hopefully I'll post before I move to give you any updates of things.
Hope you guys have enojoyed summer. ANd I'll see you guys in the futureXD

]]> ~LittleMissSkuld http://LittleMissSkuld.deviantart.com/journal/25792324/ http://LittleMissSkuld.deviantart.com/journal/25792324/ Tue, 07 Jul 2009 09:27:15 PDT And I bet there are a few of you that aren't completely sure what I'm talking about. I'll explain... If I can: Streampunk is basically like Cyberpunk(ie Blade Runner, Bubblegum Crisis) and set in 18 hundreds/ Victorian england. During the Industrial Revolution when everything was powered by Steam. The future that never was per say. Some good examples of Steampunk are The Adventures of Jules Vern, Disney's 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, Steamboy, Final Fantasy 6 and Castle in the Sky.
If this didn't explain it enough(cause I'm not totally sure how to explain it myself) check out Wikipedia, the look for it on Youtube. It's easier to see it.
My steam for drawning is a bit low lately, so I'm working on my new hardsuit, and the Stempunk thing of course. Until I think of something really cool to draw. And you guys will be the first to hear about it.
I'm taking a different approach to makeing the new, custom hardsuit. Instead of using cardboard for the pattern, I'm just using paper. It's easier to cut and take less time. To put it together, I'm either going to use craft foam, or card stock like what I saw on Indy Mogul for HALO aromor on Youtube. The obe thing I don't have to worry about this time is the boots. I already have a pair of Black boots that I've modified with electrical tape. So that's done.
For what ever art I shall be posting that's going to be coloured, I'll be using CS3 so i can prctice for college. Taht way I'll won't have to worry about getting stuck with layers, effect and such. So you guys will be seeing mainly comic covers, Medabots, Transformers, and Metroid. Progress on costumes will have photos and posted.
So, anyone excited for the GI Joe movie? I am, and I've only watched GIJoe Resolute.XD
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, I've started baking I made a marble cake and chocolate chip cookies. It keeps me busy. Aaaannnnnd it's a part of my cleaning duties.
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer, and thanks to with helping me find out more about the Media studies course

Of course with this and all the other weird crap in my life, I'm really stressed. I can't sleep till 3am worring about stuff, or I just can't get to sleep, my stomache has given me hell over and pver and again. My bookstore hasn't been getting anything new either so I didn't get May's YenPlus and I need to know what happened in NightschoolX(... I feel like hitting my head against the wall. I don't know "The Wall" is, but it will do.

Yes that was a rant there. Don't worry I'll be fine 10 minutes after writing that.
Now for some cool news:
I watched the E3 Debut trailor for the new Metroid game XD Metroid: Other M (sounds a bit like a working title to me) and can't wait till it come out The cutscenes look like they're right out of Appleseed Ex Machina combined with Advant Children, plus Samus is finall going to talk. Yay!

I got Mikumiku Dance last week. It's the program where you can animate the vocaloids It's been trasnlated into English and it's a lot of fun to play with.

Also, I have been tossing around the idea of doing a 24 hour comic. If you're not familiar with Scott McCloud's dare to the Comic world I shall tell you the details. It's pretty basic: 1 hour=1 page. Which leads to 24 pages. Now most 24 hour comics are done woth a lot of splash pages(or atleast from teh ones I've seen) to make the work load a bit easier, since you have to come up with a story, plan it out, draw, ink, erase, touch up, add colour(if you need it) all within that designated 24 hour period. And taking a break doesn't stop the clock either. Many groups and Art collages have done this and only a small handful of people have actually done all 24 pages without getting stuck. So, I'm a little wary about doing one. But it could be fun. I have a idea that I'm bouncing around. Oh yeah, when you're doing a 24 hour comic, it can't be from something already established. And idea is ok, but if it's from something you've already done or worked on, that's a No Way Dude.
If any of you are curious about the 24 hour comic, go to Scott McCloud's Site scottmccloud.com to see if I'm not exagerating.

Anyway, I'm going to try to get some more art work up, hopefully scan in those Medabots pages, and wait for the Figma figure of Drossel (a vocaloid) to come out so I can possibly buy her. *sigh* I have no will power for cute robots. Plus I think She'd go great with Metabee on my head bored

Hope you're all doing ok, and ready for summer and yeah this was a looong one this time.

OMG!!! XD I sent a email so I can get the certificate in the mail. But I WON something! I'm still in shock, especially for a newbie to cosplay like me.
Now very motivated I shall get pics of me in costume within the next few days ( I swear this time) and more when the certificate comes.
Now if you excuse me, I'm going to dance around some XD If you like you can join me

On the bright side of things, I have filled a sketch book within the last month, and will hopefully be posting more art up. There's a lot that I've done. Since I last wrote in. Mainly orignal art in this case.
Oh and that trip to Moncton I took? I traveld 12 1/2 hours straight. 8 hours by bus to get to Moncton to meet (thankfully he and my old landlady had everything packed when I got there) and 4 hours to drive back, plus time to eat. I think I can do a lot of things travel wise now. Oi.
Other than that there hasn't been much. Mainly I've drawn, come up with quick and easy cosplays for the future, fought off the temptation to work on another hardsuit, leaving that for June/July, and not being able to sleep till about 4am. What an exciting life I lead.
I might be heading down to Halifax soon with my Mum and we'll hit the art store and Strange Adventures.
Hope you guys out there are doing good

]]> ~LittleMissSkuld http://LittleMissSkuld.deviantart.com/journal/24204569/ http://LittleMissSkuld.deviantart.com/journal/24204569/ Sun, 12 Apr 2009 15:55:17 PDT And now it's time for me to go out there and get a job. I'mnot going to be too picky on what kinda job, I just need to save up money for the next school year.
Speaking of which, I have heard back from the college I applied to, they just need my transcripts which I'm going to have sent on tuesday.
Now I'm going to address something that some of you might not have thought of, or have and just dismissed it. This being why I don't have much original art up. Well, the case being that have to many friends who tell me that someone's going to go steal it on me. And with the news about people on DA are taqking art and claimiming it as their own has utterly scared the crap outta me. So recently all my origianl art now has my signature intersecting the art, plus it has the date I drew it. My teacher at college told me if you have a date and can prove you drew it before someone else, you can press charges and such. I'm putting all this info on now so I can pretect my art. Which you probably gathered. I might get my characters registered and trade marked too.
I'm paranoid about these things.
Though this is why I love fan art. YOu don't have to worry about these types of things since you're using preexisting characters.
I just wanted to get that all out there cause it's been bothering me some. And it's annoying have people freak you out beyond belief. X(
Comic news: There will be pages put up. Though my printer is awaiting me back in Moncton, so there will be some running back and force between my PC and the MAC in the basement to get it up for you. 2 of the pages are going to be coloured in photoshop, and the rest will be posted in the regular pencil shaded versions. Plus new art will be posted as well with that.
And you out there heard me talking about me being in a vid from Animaritime on youtube. Well, my friend got one up of me at the masquerade. Though I'm not good at putting up links so I'll give you the title. It's "Em at the con" if it doesn't come up normally, put it in teh advance options for the exact title. And you'll get to see my cool Hardsuit
I'm going to be remaking the hardsuit over the summer. This time I'll be using plaster bandages and acrylic gel. I'm going for a more show accruate look. The "Softsuit" came out very close, but it was a bit too bulky and retained abit too much heat for it to be really comfy in crowed places. Plus the boots with the high heels hurt like hell. So that's a project to keep me busy when I have artist block.
Hope you're all having a great Easter and you hear again from me soon

I got a bunch of new manga over he weekend. I got the first volume of Megatokyo...and have read up to the 5th book on the net. I don't have a lot of will power.
There's not much to talk about. Trying to express how I feel is very complicated. All I want to do once I'm home is rest. I hope.

This has been the main focus for the last little bit. And with the move, I'm going to have to pack up my printer. WHich means no scanner to scan pics in and post. I'll try to get some things up that i've been meaning to put up for some time before I do that though. And get n the For Eva Mine Pages that are going to be in colour.
Since I've been working really hard the last while, I'm going to treat myself to some comic shopping. Hopefully I can stay focused for that. XD.
Hope you're all good. And I can't wait for next weeks episode of Transformers Animated hee hee

This I find a bit of a mixed blessing. Now I can work on my costumes and not have to do a rush job. And yeah, I'm redoing the Hardsuit. Urithane foam hopefully. I have all the patterns/cardboard cut-outs I made so it should be a bit easier.
Anyway, I'm working on applying for an Animaton course for next year, and from what I've heard from my friend :Eyan: it's a freaking hard class to get into. So, I want to go into the Media studies that gets you ready for Animation... But I don't know.... Im going to try anyway.
I'm moving home next month. The 8 Month slogg is almost done, and I get to be home for 5 months. Of course I'm getting a job, try to get a driver's liscense, help my Mum paint the upstairs bathroom, etc.
In my spare time, i'm going to work on the Medabots comic, which is going to have about 4-5 intallments, work on the new hard suit, make stop otion animations, and write up a BGC fan movie. And work on my original comic. I'd also would like to run around my hometown to get rid of some of my pent up energy that I have.
I'm going to do some more of those Film Noir pics in a while, those with this boredom I've been having, not much has beendone.
Damn.
Hope everyone is doing well and is ready for Spring.

I nearly died from the heat in the hotel. And using longjohns for the inner suit isn't the best idea. AND I did Caramelldansen, in my hard- well it's more of a "Soft Suit".
Today I was giving out free hugs. Mainly when you have done jusrt about everything you can think of at an anime con, it's nice to spread the love.
I want to redo the costume for next year, with different material that's easier to work with. i'm looking for urithane foam to use instead. Or a new character. I'm going as female Ranma tomorrow and giving more free hugs aswell. if any one is going to animaritime
come look for me. My DA name is on my badge. XD
I will have pics of the costume up later. My Mum took some of the good ones earlier this week and I need to get the files from her. Plus therewill be video of me up on youtube too, currticy of Nertom.
I'll give better details on the con later aswell when I'm back at home.

I went on a school trip to Halifax. oh so hoping to be able to go to Strange Adventures one of the best Comic shops ever. ANd all we did was run around NASCAD and the Art Gallery. And some how that took up the whole day. My feet and legs hurt, I'm really tired, and there's no one to celebrate my birthday with right now in person.
All I want is to be home. Even though I was home last weekend to celebrate with my family.......it's just not the same...
If any thinks of a way to cheer me up, PLEASE do.

Anywhoo, I'm working on the Medabots comic because I can't think of anything else to draw, and I get ideas when I'm doing something unrelated to what i wanna do. I'm going to post some art that will give you hints to what is going to happen in the future. ANd I'd like to hear about what you think might happen, might change some events if they're reeeaaalllyy good.
I hope everyone isn't letting the Winter/February downs get to them. Soon it will be March, and that means March/Spring Break, and of course Spring. I plan to go kite flying when it's spring and the weather is agree able.

I wasn't scared at the end, but I had to do some shopping afterwards and when I got out of the mall the sun was setting. So the freaky atmosphere kinda grew as i walked home, with a part of the street haiving about a hundred crows in the trees, the street light being out, and passing a Herse. I was glad to be back home.
Anyway, it's 10 days till my birthday. And I get to go home the weekend of Valentines day(weather permitting)
Other than that, I just have to say that Coraline was worth it. You people out there in netland should go watch it. If it's not your thing that's ok too.
I don't think I can look at Black Buttons the same way again.

Though I need to get home so I can get more material to cut out the rest of the parts I need that are blue. Hopefully I'll be ready for Animartime, which is about a month away. ^_^; And I need to get the Helmet 2.0 finished. The visor actually works on it unlike the second prototype. But if I can do an animation that 4 looping sequences, and was 117 frames, I can finish this costume.
Also next month it's my birhtday! Unfortunetly, it's durring the week so I can't go home for it. So I'm going to go home either the weekend before or after my birthday. I'll put up a journel a week before so if anyone wants to prepare something, they'll know when they have to get it done.
I'm hopefully going to go see "Coraline" when it comes out. I read the graphic novel version a few months back. It was really good, but I read it late at night so I can't remember parts of it. But I really want to see it. Neil Gaimen's works are always very interesting.
Only a month and a half till Sprng people.

Since being at home gets rid of my creative crash. But I'm back in Moncton anyway.....
We have FINALLY started animation. We did a walking animation, I did a knight walking, and a anvil falls beside him. We're going to do a running animation next week. Plus we had to do a painting that shows our knowledge of perspective, light and dark, and distance. I did a painting of Optimus Prime and I. I'm still getting the fine details done, but I will take a picture of it( cause it's too big to scan) and post it on DA as soon as I can.
And I'm sorry to my Medabot fans about the comic. I didn't work on it.But I do have pages from before I'll try to get on, so please do kill me. You'll never know how it works out if that happens
Anyway, only 2 more months till Animaritime comes, and 2 months to get my costume done.Oi.
No matter what; I wish I was home.

Though I really just want to be home, and stay there more than a day and a half.
So merry Christmas to everyone on my watch, the fans of For Eva Mine, all my personally friends, and my Mom and my Bro.

Hehehehehe, that'd be cool.
Though the main thing lately is just enjoying my time at home. Then in about 2 1/2 weeks I'll be coming home for christmas break. And it's pretty full of things I'm going to be doing. Working on costume, drawing, sleeping(there'll be lots of that) and catching up on all the anime we've gotten that I haven;t been able to watch.
So the NIKATA comic is going to be getting top priority really soon. but all you Medabots fans needn't worry, I'm posting 3 new pages soon. And there will be fan art aswell.

Winter maybe fun for some people, but for me? Nuh-uh. I get a Nausicaa feel every winter. Probably from all the clothes we have to wear.... and my winter hat looks like Nausicaa's flying cap. It's hard to do anything when you're bored out of your mind; can't bthink of anything to draw, nothing good on tv, and the scenery out side is just miserable.
*sigh* atleast I have back-up plans. But I still wanna be home right now.
I would like to be able to hang out with my friends this weekend, plus do my laundry and get some microwaveable meals for the week. KD gets tiresome after a while.

But that's not till next weekend. Oddly enough, this type of thing has been happening periodicly for the past year or so. It all started in 2007 around end of year exams, I was having dreams that someone was trying to kill me. And they got pretty close. These nightmares last for a while, then they go away. About 3-4 months later, they come back. I just can't win.

By now, most of you have seen how I have impproved in my art skills. With my latest water colours. Though, I would like to mention that I have been using them since I was two years old. I only just got good at them now. Waaaay back in the early 90's, my parents gave my brother and I cheap water colours to play with. Those hockey puck kinds you can get at just about any store. And I got packs of water colour tubes for christmas for years, plus got my dad's old paints and brushes. Though, I never really painted anything that other people could understand. From what my Mom has told and show me, I did a painting that was just random brushstrokes. When she asked what I was painting, I replied " Butterflies". Not surprising to me, since I saw the world completely different way. Not like that hasn't changed much.

In other news in the anime that is my life; I have decided to make my Bubblegum Crisis hardsuit diferently. After watching live Kamen Rider Kiva plays on youtube, I was paying attention to how the actors move around in their costumes. I liked how there was so much detail in the way they made them, cloth and foam most likely. Then in the Super Sentai spirit, I thought Why not do that with my hardsuit? Well, originally I wanted to do one of those plays with BGC. And one thing lead to another.
So, durring my christmas break I will be working on sewing and building this suit. I'm making the 2.0 helmet. And this will make the costume warmer, and more comfortable to move around in that making it out of card board and Crayola Model Magic. Though that's how the helmet is going to be made again.

For everyone whose wondering how it has been here in the new place( I know my Mom has been). It is great here. The gals here are really nice to me. Most of us keep to our selves. And after talking to them yesterday, they hardly know if I'm here or not since I'm so quietXD. Should'a told them I was an art ninja But you could ask for nicr people. An awesome change from last time.
The schedule for next week is buy the Wall-E 3-dics special edition, finsh christmas shopping, going to the laudromat, hopefully hang out with friends, and go home. hehehehehXD
More paintings and Medabot comic to follow soon.

Usually I get freaked out like crazy because of this day. But it's probably the fact that I am just glad to be in a new place.
I got my room all set up the way I like it for now, it's yellow, has a nice desk, and a great view . Though there's a bit of the rrof in the way, I have a good view of the sky.Which is important to me.
Yeah, I know I'm rambling on here, but many people don't know what it's like living with a 68 year old EMO, who is also self-riges, stuborn, and utterly bitchy for a month. So I'm very GLAD to get out of that place.
Anyway, Happy Halloween everyone!

And lately I have been feeling VERY home sick. If this keeps happening I'm going to go insane. And if I can't find a good place to stay(IF this new place doesn't work out) I might have to go home. So even though I would love to go back home and stay there, I have to finish my course and make this new place work.I get to decorate it any way I like too, so that's a bonus.
For all my friends out there, keep track of what I write about places I find and if I'm repeating things; Slap me.
Anyway, I saw the BLEACH movie in theatres last night. AWESOME!!! THough if I had known it was already on dvd I would have just bought it. And that's what they were showing: The DVD. And the turn out was so pathetic. 15 people tops. Of course on a monday night, there's not much people. And there were two cosplayers. It felt good going out to a movie, even though I went by myself, and thought there were going to be tones of anime fans, it was still good for me.
*sigh* October is just not the month for me. Werid things always happen in October, due to halloween,and all that jazz. Personally, I cn't wait for this month to be over with. Though November seems more dreary than October, it's, supernaturally saying, when the barrier between our worls and the spirit realm has gone back to normal. Right now it's pretty damn thin. And I have to ask my new lanlady if I can move on a differnet day than Halloween. Which doesn't mean people should not go out for candy, that's the light side of Halloween.
I'll fill you all in once I'm in the new place and am settled in some.

Anyway, had a good weekend, though trains are slow. And they stop for no real reasons at all. Really, it stopped in the middle of nowhere for about 10 minutes!
I'll be posting some more soon. Just need to put some ground rules down with my land lady.


Ignore the emoticon.

Unfortunetly, I haven't been working on the comic because of moving, stress, and drawers block. Plus I have to wait to get my internet before I can watch original Medabots for inspiration. Before you ask " WHy not watch it at school?" Because I like watching it in the privasing of my room, like all my anime. But I will start working on it again, I just don't lnow when.
Anyway, my class is planning a halloween party, and I have absolutley no idea of who to dress up as. I'm thinking of something like Haruhi Suzumiya, or so. I'd dress up like Ranma, but I don't have a long sleeve chinese shirt to wear. And my hard suit would't be a good idea for drawing in.... and it's not done yet.
it's been getting gloomier, and gloomier out here weather wise, it's deffinetly getting that Halloween look; Ominous, dark, and creepy.
I need to watch my Medabots dvds, and soon. But the one I have much of Brass in them so I'm at a loss.
Anyway, thanks for all of your support over the last few weeks. It really helped me through the hard times.

The people here are nice, but nost of them are older than I, and my instincts have been going "Warning! Warning" like crazy. And I was taught to trust my instincts. Plus the room is literally a small box, the house is next to a drive-thru Tim Hortons,and I'm homesick as hell.
So I need to be in an enviroment that feels like home, intead of an uncomfy, steril looking house.
College is great though. It's just drawing all day long. And the time goes by so quickly, plus I think we're going to get pizza every friday.
Oh, another reason why I think I should move: I can't seem to get ANY inspiration to draw in this place. Which is really bad for you fans of 'For Eva Mine'.And nothing cheers me up. Not evey getiing comics or donuts.Though, this is the first time I've been so far from home ever by myself.
Soon I'll get better, but it'll probably after I move. Good thing I found a nice place to mve to that's only two blocks from the College.
If any of you have things you can say to make me feel better, PLEASE tell me. I nearly, well, was going to give up and just go home. Than I thought I needed the change of scene. ANd to be closer to the comic store.
And I miss everyone a lot.

I feel really nervous right now, since I'm not coming home for a month and a half (Thanks Giving). But I can't wait to start, since the Visual Arts foundations course starts us at the bottom and we work up, basically, we're learning the basics with more depth than Grade school Art class. The other reason I want to go is because Moncton has an Anime convention during my March Break! XD Yeah, funny coincidence, (not really). Execpt the anticipation of leaving my home, in Nova Scotia(nuff said) is really grinding down on me....
I know for a fact that you're wondering how the title has anything to do with going to college. Well the other day I was looking in the Dvd bargan bin at Zellars, and low and behold I found the Fifth Medabots DVD. And for $2 I wasn't letting it out of my hands. With that, I got a DVD ripping program and started making AMVs. ^^
The Medabots craze doesn't end there. Finally, after waiting months, Youtube has 30 some odd episodes of Medarot Damashii. So cool!
Anyway, because of the lack of internet where I'll be living, I shall be usin the cities free Wi-Fi to come on the Deviant Art. Which might be limited. But don't worry, I'll be working on more art and the Medabots comic during my free time, plus finishing the hardsuit, and (probably) looking for a job to quickly pay off my student loan.
To all you people watching my galleries and loving the comic, I love you all!
Yeah that was dramatic. It's the stress talking.

The otheer day it dropped about 10 degrees C. And I've been having nightmares like crazy. Last night I dreamt that I was stuck in Alberta and was trying to get back home. Luckily my friends K-chan and Ash were there, but it still freaked me out. The other night I dreamt that it was the first day of school and I was stuck in a high school! Then I couldn't get my dad to understand that I needed to be in Moncton right that instant.
Yeah, I think I'm getting those pre-school worries that, from what I've heard, everyone gets. I just wish I could get a good nights sleep....

Mainly it's hard to go through life looking like a Vampire whose fangs got stuck. Oy. The real weird thing is that I can still feel them. From what my brother and Mom told me, I was REALLY out of it when it was done. I remember barley anything. Some parts from getting into the car, but that's it.
Anyway, I finally got my own laptop the other day. Unfortunetly with Vista, but I'm getting it down graded to XP as soon as I can figure out how to do it without messing up the entire computer.
To get ready for working in animation, I've been making short stop motion cartoons with my Priss action figure, and some of my brother's Revoltechs and MSiAs. I've only gotten about 30 seconds of footage each time I make them, but it's mainly for fun
The hardsuit is going slowly. I made a prototype of the helmet a while ago. I just need a bike helmet, high heels, and an inner suit. *sigh* I want to work on it badly, but, to cosplay, you gotta have a pretty steady money flow. Ah well, I'll get it done some time.
Oh, yeah, since my fangs and I were separated, I've been making hundreds of Vampire jokes, and planning Vampire pics. Huh.

It's pretty cool. I'll be doing nothing but drawing. No english classes, or anything like that. And I got a room to stay in. Small, but I could find a better place if I had to.
i've been feeling kinda out of sorts since I got back though. Like something's out of place. Which is getting annoying. I haven't drawn much either.
I finally got Priss. Smaller and not as articulated as my Sylia figure, but it's still cool. It comes with a hand book with pictures of how to transform the Motoslave, even though it's all in japanese.
I'll try to get some more art work up soon. I think this ' out of sorts thing' is just the time of month messing me up some. I'll bounce back.

Anyway, I have been room hunting for a place to live while I'm in Moncton. Which is really hard to do. My Mom want's to find a place were it's not too expensive, safe, internet, and close enough to Mckenzie so I can walk or take the bus. Very stressful work.
Yeah, I had a posting spree, either later today or tomorrow, I shall post the 10 pages of NIKATA roughs for you people to check out.
Also, I made Priss' hard suit helmet out of card board last week end. The first one I made looked more like a Transformer, so the next day I made another that really looks like the helmet. I took pictures while I was making it and will be posting those too.
Oh yeah, Koodos to Creamy Chan, HopelessRomantic and Random explosion, since a lot of the Medabots art is in my Favourites.

SO KAWAIIIII! Aw man that is my favourite Pixar movie! Finally, a movie about robots(that we humans made) that doesn't involve them trying to destroy us. Transformers doesn't count because we didn't build them, still cool movie though. I really want to see WALL-E again, Pixar has really pushed the bar for computer animated films. Anyone reading this who hasn't seen it, GO to the theatre RIGHT NOW and WATCH WALL-E. You won't regret it at all. And I mean it , get off the computer, find out when it's on and go see it. Yes, it will be full of kids, but it doesn't matter, you'll be just as wrapped up in it as they are, maybe even more so.

Okay, with the endorsement out of the way, the reason for the title. On about July 6, it will be officially 2 years since I had the dream that inspired Magnus Armor NIKATA. And I am working on the Page Roughs right now and will be posting them so people can give me feed back. If you have a suggestion on how to change something, that's what roughs are for, please tell me. I want to get this comic publish and sold to the public. Probably through Dark Horse, or a smaller comic company. Not Tokyo Pop. I read that whole thing Cybogo Plus posted about them. I'm the aspiring manga-ka little sister.
So yeah, look forward to that. And I'm going to do some stop motion cartoons with my EVE and WALL-E figures, one to "Down to Earth" by Peter Gabriel, and " Still Alive" from Portal, that one will have Metabee in it. Hehehe

The Priss hard suit is my other project, which I've figured out the kinks and other complicated stuff, I just can't find the materials for building it. More on that later.
Right now things aren't too bad.... If you don't factor in the heat.

I just want to get it over with, I don't want to have to sit there for two hours listening to people talk about how they're going to miss the place. I won't. Though, there are some aspects I will miss, that will be it. And all the freaking out caused me to be sick at 4am. REALLY not good.
I'm trying to distract myself with other stuff, but I can't see WALL-E till after I graduate because it's the next day, and Priss still hadn't come in yet. And June ends in 5 or 6 days.
On a brighter note, I'll be starting my comic up again and posting it.
............. I hope I can survive that long......

Though next week I have exams... Yikes. BUt I think I'm going to really good. I've been working hard to get good marks, and after this I can put my full attention on going to Art College. And working on my comic and Priss hard suit. And finish applying fo rmy student loan.
Anyway, I finished my first Computer coloured picture, it's on my Mom's computer currently, so I'll put it up with the rest of the art I'm putting up next week.
There hasn't been much besides that. THough things still look good. Yay

I worked REALLY hard to get that done, with all the shading and smudging and having hand cramps from trying to get it done fast and lpok good.
I've never even been mentioned in the paper when ever they talk about the content. EVER. And the paper's always anerexicly thin when my comics aren't in it. No one else puts anything in. There's only four people who writes anything.
I just want some recognition for what I have don for that paper, and I don't get it. Always looked over. It's like I don't matter to these people... and we were all really good friends a while ago. Well, one I don't like at all, okay, HATE, because I didn't like the book she was writing( Suckiest fantasy story -that- steals- from -a- lot -of- copy- righted- stuff- not- even- good -stuff, EVER) and she got all weird on me. Then she took a group photo of the newspaper staff when I wasn't there and said it didn't matter because I didn't have anything in that issue!
I told the rest of the group, and I get kicked out! They told me that both of us should leave because we're having a problem, and they're all hanging out together the very next day! And then this whole thing hits me........................


On a brighter side, I figured out how to make the Priss costume. Which is amazing from only looking at the pictures of ones people have made already. ANd reading how to use Crayola Model Magic.
I also want to see the movie WALL-E. It's so CUTE!!! I want to buy the toys that light up and stuff.
Though I'm still upset. I want my koodos damn it.

The major problems I having is trying to figure out how to make the helmet, and be able to see out of it..... and where to get materials to make said helmet.><
It's too bad that there are no cosplay specialty stores around where I live. That would be SO helpful.
And if anyone can offer me any advice it will be greatly appriciated!
...Plus I'm waiting for the new Priss figure with Motoroid to come in so it will be shipped....
