]]> ~Maple-Gunman 10 facts and COMMISSIONS http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/28227698/ http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/28227698/ Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:49:26 PST RULES: Write 10 random facts about yourself, and then tag 10 people.

1. I can go days without eating very easily as I often have stomach issues and don't eat a lot because when I do it hurts. I've been to countless doctors and they can't find anything wrong with me though.

2. I absolutely HATE when people ask me if I'm goth. Just because I wear dark eyeshadow and eyeliner DOES NOT mean that I'm a goth. I get offended if people even assume it.

3. I'm convinced that I'm meant to survive the apocalypse because I have dreams about it so often and I do everything perfectly in order to survive in each scenario.

4. If I had one wish I would wish Petey Piranha into existence so we could hang out and just do random shit together and be best friends.

5. My range of music stretches veeeeeeery far across the range of genres. I could be listening to Suicide Silence one minute and then switch to someone like Pitbull or Chingy.

6. I NEVER want to disappoint anyone EVER. That's my greatest fear in life.

7. I've seriously contemplated deleting all of the fan art from my gallery. I would rather much get favourites and comments on my personal drawings.

8. I'm one of the nicest people you could probably ever meet but I can be the biggest asshole if someone pisses me off behind the wheel.

9. Random people who've seen me IRL but don't really know me think I'm a whore for whatever unfound reasons. I still have yet to receive any explanations.

10. I put a part of me into each and every one of my characters, no matter how gay/lame that sounds, they mean a lot to me.

Usually people are like "Well yeah! I'd love to commission you!"
but when I get all the info up and it's time to start shit they'll be like "Oh...I don't have any money right now but I wish I could buy something."

THAT DOES NOT HELP ME.

I'm not going to get into why I'm in dire need of money because it's not just me, it's my family and we're having a lot of problems right now and this will be extra money on top of working god knows how many jobs I can take on.

So please, if you seriously would consider commissioning me then please comment on this journal.
If you want to buy a previous piece of art in my gallery I 100% have it and just note me if you're really interested.

Thank you for your time.

I hate driving sometimes, I really do.
It doesn't help that I have terrible road rage either

I abuse poor Butch way too much with the speeding and the breaking and the turning of sharp corners really fast.
It's Ok though because he's my black ninja car :]

Anyone out there have a Gaia account?
I've been on a lot lately so add me

Account name is Iceringer.(no period on that)

Still need to do those art trades.
Better get on that >.>

1. Why is your fursona named what it is?
Well she's my fursona so naturally, Gunner pretty much speaks for itself.

2. Why did you make your fursona the species it is?
She's just a wolf like most sparkle dogs.
Plus it confuses people due to her colour scheme.

3. Why did you choose the color scheme you did for your fursona?
The colour scheme means a lot more than just a colour scheme.
When you first glance at her you instantly think 'fox'.
It's essentially the same thing most people do via stereotyping someone just because they look a certain way.
You think you know someone by just looking at them but hat's not it at all.

4. What special bodily characteristics (wings, long claws, mane, etc) have special significance for your fursona?
They're not really all that special.
Just her wings, spiked collar, and her bandaged leg.
Her claws always jut out of her back paws and they're not retractable.

5. What unusual markings or colors have special significance for your fursona?
See #3.

6. If your fursona has jewelry/piercings/articles of clothing, what significance do they have?
I just like piercings and spikes.

7. Does your fursona's personality mimic your own? If not, why not?
All fursonas are supposed to mimic their creators personality.
Hence the term 'fursona'.

8. Do you currently have more than one fursona? Why, or why not?
I may have doodled a few in the past but I never used them.

9. Have you had a different fursona in the past? If you did, why did you change it? If you haven't, why haven't you changed it?
I really haven't.
Not an official one anyway.

-----

Blah blah blah sparkle dogs blah blah blah I really couldn't give a shit so don't rope me into that stereotype. I just like them, I enjoy drawing them and it's a lot of fun so whatever.
Anyway, I still have these art trades to do so I better get on that.

http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/25619302/ Mon, 29 Jun 2009 00:24:59 PDT Sounds like someone's got a Death Note

Anyway...
I'm getting to those art trades so don't worry.
I have sketches fro those who actually told me what they want done and i'll get them up as soon as I can.
I've been kind of busy lately and haven't really had time to actually sit down and finish something but i'm going to try like hell.

That's really all there is news wise.
Cannot wait to see BrÃ¼no though.
That movie looks fucking hilarious and I love how many people are getting offended and riled up over it.
Anyway, i'm out for now.
Here are the people I still have to do art trades for:

http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/25180947/ Sun, 07 Jun 2009 14:17:21 PDT I haven't completed anything in an entire week and it's beginning to get extremely frustrating.
I mean, i've started drawings like another Anubis picture, a red and black wolf, a Pokemon battle, various head shots of Kira Izuru to gain a better understanding of his facial expressions because i'm considering cosplaying as him, ect.

I've also been very busy and i'm barely home now a days.

Soooooo.....
I would really enjoy a few ART TRADES at the moment.
I haven't got any ideas nor inspiration at the moment to draw something I can't even think of or have the will to finish so I think this will be good.

I wanna take on about 5 so please note me or comment this journal if you're interested :]

The whole concept of your drawing and choice was just amazing.

I ecspecially love all the piercings and the hair. Nothing short of amazing

Second Place:

[link]
Prize:Two fully inked and coloured drawings of whatever you want.
-----
I thought you wounldn't make the deadline since you said you've been real busy and everything and I really appreciate you entering.

Absolutely stunning

Just letting everyone know that the contest will be over on November 30th.
Winners will be postedon the First of December and i've decided to give everyone a free sketch of anything they want if they submitted something but weren't able to obtain the top prizes.

Well, that's pretty much it.

Ok, down to the point...

What Kind of Pokemon Are You?
I've drawn myself as a pokemon before and i'm not really all that fond of it even though it's a Sneasel and I love Sneasels XP
The point of this contest is to draw any type of Pokemon to my likeness (i.e. Hair, Eye colour, Height, ect.) just as long as it looks like me. It can be any type of Pokemon of any size, as long as the Pokemon already exists. That means you can't make up a random creature that looks like a Pokemon but really isn't. I just have a few suggestions that will benefit you and better your chances at making the most creative pokemon design :]

Example: [link]

About Me
Actual pictures will be at the end of this journel incase anyone needs a visual reference of me for the sake of their entry.
Here's just a few suggestiopns you can factor into your entry.:
-I absolutely love spikes.
-The more piercings, the better.
-I like bracelets, necklaces, earrings, jewelery in general.
-Black and any other colour are nice together.
-I'm a bit on the short side so you might want to make the Pokemon smaller than usual.
-The more eyeliner/eyeshadow the better.
-I may be small but feisty.

Prizes
First Place: 3 fully inked and coloured pieces of absolutely anything you might want.
Second Place: 2 fully inked and coloured pieces of absolutely anything you might want.
Third Place: 1 fully inked and coloured piece of absolutely anything you might want.
Fourth Place: 1 sketched piece of absolutely anything you might want.

So that's about it.
There aren't really any rules to this contest, just be creative and have fun :]
The entry that has the most creativity and resembles me the most shall be crowned the winner, so on and so forth.
Each deviant is allowed only one entry each.
Your icon shall be added to the end of the joural as well as your submitted entries so you can gauge up the competition if you like.

Well, all that's left are the pics so good luck to everyone and I can't wait to see your wonderful ideas

http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/19155732/ Tue, 01 Jul 2008 22:02:53 PDT I'm probably just tired of looking at that long quiz on my page

Anyway, i've officially graduated high school and have nothing to do all summer

I would love to do some art trades with amazing artists so anyone willing, please send me a note and we can exchange some awesome art work :]

http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/17474752/ Sun, 23 Mar 2008 12:36:33 PDT Just updating a few friends/awesome people and clubs XP
And now since I have no goal of acheiving anything to draw as of late, i'm wide open for art trades if anyone's interested

http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/16713466/ Sun, 03 Feb 2008 19:23:33 PST I have the mentality of 30 year old yet the appearance of someone who's not an adult >_<
How do people take me seriously?

Anyway, sorry my output hasn't been quite up to par like it usually has. I've been having to go this art program for my high school and we have to draw in this journal every single day so byt the time I get done with that, I feel like working on anything else. Oh well T_T

It shouldn't be that much of a problem though since I wait till the last minute to complete anything hahaha

Uh, what else, what else? Oh, I get my unrestricted lisence in a few days so i'll be completely legal! Yay!

And that's all I can think of for now but i'll make sure to keep up in my work. Until then, bye bye :]

Honestly, I don't know why I waited so long to start drawing more Bleach stuffs ^_^

And now for the random question of the day:
Who the hell sparked the Aizen/Gin pairing?!
They're both far too dominant for there to even be an uke in a relationship D:<
Aizen is just...freakin' the God of Bleach and Gin's a manipulative, dominating, 'ImGunnaRapeYouInThatDarkAlleyWhenYou'reNotLooking' kind of guy.
It doesn't make any sense to me XP

Well i'm done.
Just had to let that out :]

C'mon people, I've been scouring DeviantArt and can't find a single thing and i'm not about to sift through 2 Million+ pieces when I search 'D-Roy' in the 'Search Art' bar.
Have you tried that lately? Nothing from even Bleach hardly comes up!
Ugh...

]]> ~Maple-Gunman 'Nother character thingy also hi-jacked from http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/14234076/ http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/14234076/ Sun, 19 Aug 2007 00:58:23 PDT Marilyn, Helix, Abel, Logan, Slasher, No-Name, Sei+Sai, Kiyoshi, Enjeru, Blaze, Taoreru, Sabel, and Uzumaki.

Who are your oldest character(s)?:
Sabel. Even though he looks like a child, the experimentaion stunted his growth. He looks about 8 but in theory he's really around 150 or so. Hence why he has so much power.

Who are your newest character(s):
That would be the entire Cindering Ashes crew.

Who is your strongest character(s)?:
Definately Sabel. Ecspecially after he transforms into his alter-self.

Who is your smartest character(s)?:
Marilyn. She stands by and watches everything on the side of life, gaining knowledge with every glance. Hm, or Sabel since he's been around for awhile. Either or hahaha

Who is your unsmartest character(s)?:
Can we say Uzumaki? He's literally insane.

Who is your quietest character(s)?:
Well that'd be Slasher since he can't talk.

Who is your loudest character(s)?:
Helix and Blaze. They tend to mouth off a bit.

Who is your most annoying character(s)?:
Enjeru. He's so goddamn arrogant.

Who is your most mature character(s)?:
Hm, either Marilyn or Sabel.

Who is your most fearful character(s):
Sabel. He doesn't get mad often but when he does, watch out.

Who is your meanest character(s):
Blaze. Stupid bully...

Who is your kindest character(s)?:
Kindest? That'd be Logan. He's too shy and innocent to be mean.

Who are your oldest (in age) characters?:
I think Sabel's got just about everyone beat by 130 years or so lol

Who are your youngest characters?:
Kiyoshi looks the youngest but he also rivals Sabel's age.
I'd have to say Logan. Only 16. Such a shame he's not legal yet hahaha

Goth Characters:
Not goth.

Prep Characters:
I don't think any of them can be considered prep.

Punk Characters:
That'd be Abel and Helix

Nerd Characters:
Nerd? Marilyn but she's not really that much of a classic nerd.

Shy Characters:
Logan wins that by a long stretch.

Social Characters:
Enjeru's reaaaaally friendly hahaha

Anti-social Characters:
Marilyn and Sabel.

Bossy Characters:
Helix, Blaze, and Enjeru.

Crossdresser Characters:
Hm, Uzumaki at times but that's because he's insane and wants to look pretty.

Rude Characters:
Enjeru and Blaze.

Cheerful Characters:
Slasher and Kiyoshi.

Know-It-All Characters:
Marilyn and Sabel.

Emo Characters:
No-Name hahaha

Lovable Characters:
Kiyoshi, Slasher, and Sei+Sai

Hottest Characters:
That'd be Abel, Mr. Hot Pants XP

Sexiest Characters:
Helix and Abel.

Sporty Characters:
Eh, they're not all that sporty.

Show-off Characters:
Enjeru is such an arrogant ass he can't help but show off.

Pervert Characters:
None really.

Hippie Characters:
...right.

Yaoi/Yuri Characters:
Abel X Logan
Marilyn X Helix

Which of your character(s) are based from real life?:
Marilyn and Helix are both adapted from my personality and somewhat looks. Slasher came to me in a dream so I put him to paper.

Which of your character(s) is base from a cartoon/movie/show/comic book character?:
Surprisingly none of them. I suppose Sei+Sai were influenced by Hikaru and Karou of Ouran High School Host Club though hahaha

Which of your character(s) is the most original?:
Slasher. How many characters do you see that look like him? None, that's how many.

Which of these character(s) do you draw the most?
I really haven't the foggiest really. I find myself drawing Slasher an awful lot.

Which characters do you draw the least?:
Probably Kiyoshi, Blaze, Taoreru, Enjeru, Uzumaki and Sabel.

Which of your characters are worst of enemies?:
Slasher and Blaze are enemies but Blaze is more of a bully than anything.

1. Marilyn
2. Helix
3. Abel
4. Logan
5. Slasher
6. No-Name
7. Sei+Sai
8. Kiyoshi
9. Blaze
10. Taoreru
11. Sabel
12. Uzumaki

1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11?
Hm...difficult choice. No-Name's pretty smart but Sabel's even smarter. Problem is, Sabel's a hell lot younger than No-Name X]

2. Do you think #2 is hot? How hot?
Oh yeah, she's definately the hottest female character i've got. Sorry Marilyn hahaha

3. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Uzumaki telling Kiyoshi what to do? Uzumaki would probably tell him to go to the store to buy an ostrich and demand Kiyoshi milk it for juice!

4. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
Blaze doesn't read. Bullies don't need to be smart XD

5. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
I don't think it'd make sense for either of them to. No-Name basically keeps to himself and Helix is loyal to no one except her best friends.

6. For whatever reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should 5 share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
Hm, Slasher looking for a rommate? With either Blaze or Taoreru? Geez, he hates both of them and vice-versa. Hm...I think he'd prefer Taoreru since he doesn't have Blaze to encourage him to bully poor Slasher.

7. 2, 7, and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
That would definately be interesting. Helix would probablt sit there bord as hell while Sei+Sai just converse amoung themselves. Uzumaki isn't fit to go out in public. That's like sicking a rabid dog with rabies on little children 0_o;

8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Hahaha Abel could definately kick Taoreru's ass, that's for sure.

9. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would 8 get it back?
Marilyn wouldn't steal anything. She's too respectful but if she did, Kiyoshi would probably jump on her and try to savagely attack her but in reality, it'd be like attacking Marilyn with a very small and soft pillow X]

10. Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
Well this is fun hahahaha
'Incestuous Insanity'

11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
Well, Marilyn would probably be insist on helping Logan to get 'closer' to Abel since Logan's too shy to do anything himself hahaha

12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
They would drive me up the goddamn wall. The thing about nearly identical twins is that they like to play tricks on outsiders like freakin Hikaru and Kaoru. 'Effing twins....

13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
Hot damn, i'd demand him to perform a make-out session with Logan XD

14. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw anything regarding 11?
Nah, nobody really cares about Sabel but he's soooo 'effing cyute :3

15. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
Helix would pick Logan over Slasher. Logan is more of a friend than Slasher could ever have the chance to be.

16. What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
Well, he'd be behing Blaze the whole time, repeating whatever he was yelling lmao

17. If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
I do have theme songs picked out for my Cindering Ashes characters. I believe Kiyoshi's is 'Dare' by The Gorillaz.

18. 1, 6, and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
Well Marilyn and No-name would resolutely sit by watch as Uzumaki annihilates the poor bit of food.

19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
Hm..."Hey hot stuff. You kind of remind me of my dead cousin. Wanna fuck?" Hahahahaha

20. What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
Being framed for a murder of course lol Just his luck to look like a psychopathic serial killer.

21. What is 6's secret?
His un-dying love for Slasher? Nah lol
He was druggy before he was scooped up and put into Cindering Ashes.

22. If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Sabel's got Blaze beat by a milestone. Sabel's more smaller therefore more quicker and agile than Blaze.

Blaze- He's the leader of this group, enemy of Slasher and his group. He's the only occupant that can control an element; the element of fire. He has the gift of spontaneous combustion. How lucky.

Taoreru- Blaze's right-hand man. A bit on the clumsy side, his eyes remain forever covered by the insistant bandage blindfold he sports and the tattered scarf around his neck is nothing short of strangling. He's very soft spoken and hardly ever laughs except when he's talking alongside Blaze, helping to aid his mostly slandering words. He's also equal height-wise matched up against Enjeru.

Sable- Like Taoreru, he also belongs to Blaze's group. Heigth-wise, he's a bit taller than Kiyoshi but he's more refined and mature. Under that stoic, innocent exterior is a monster just waiting to be unleashed. Despite his appreance, he's the most powerful creature in Cindering Ashes. He has the ability to morph into a huge, horrific abomonation when the requirements are met. However, those remain unnamed.

Uzumaki- Uzumaki means whirlpool or swirl so I thought the name was appropriate for his appearence(and personality).
He's the only one who truely belongs in a mental institution.

Crazy by nature, Uzumaki sports a barette/bow in his hair because he thinks it makes him look 'pretty'. The wings sproating from his back and ears do not give him the ability to fly although that doesn't stop him from thinking so. He's Slasher's cousin.

And that's about it. All that's left to do is make more in-depth background stories for each character and I want to do theme-song pictures starring each character. For example, Slasher's theme song is going to be Wrist Cutter by Kagerou and i'll have him holding a razor blade and such. Blaze's will be Spitfire by Prodigy obviously. The songs have to relate to the character in some way.

Any suggestions? I'm open and all for them. I need theme songs for No-Name, Sei+Sai(they get the same song since they're twins), Enjeru, Taoreru, and Sable(although i'm thinking about using Heresy by Nine Inch Nails). Uzumaki's is Uzumaki Senshoukutai by Antique Cafe(naturally) and Kiyoshi'd is Dare by The Gorillaz.

Tll me what you think :]

It shall be called Cindering Ashes!

Anyway...
Cindering Ashes is a special insane asylum where a group of mad scientists keep their experiments when they're finished with them; leaving them there to do as they lease except leave of course. I still need a name for that group of madf scientists but that's come later.

The local residents include Slasher, No-Name, Sei, Sai, Kiyoshi, Enjeru, and many others who I have yet to create. The following that are named are usually characterized in a group or clique if you will. They're the ones that are spotted wandering the halls most. Below is a list of each, individual character and theit personality.

Slasher- The main leader of the group. Obviously, he's silent and has yet to speak but that doesn't mean he can't talk gesture wise. He's an expert at playing charades seeing as how that's all he really do to communicate with evryone else. He's very energetic and never sleeps. He's harmless for the most part unless someone gets on his bad side. The giant cleaver knife he keeps hidden under his gown is just for reassurence :]

No-Name- In a way, Slasher's best friend. Even though his mouth is stitched close he talk aloud with telepathy; it was one of the many adaptions he recieved upon experimentaion. A human, before being ubducted, he was a strung out druggie basically living oput on the streets. His past is the only one that's been revealed so far also. Personality wise he's very kind and wouldn't hurt a fly. He tends to whatever small and harmed creatures that may be scittering about the facility.

Sei- Sai's younger twin. He's the more kind-hearted one of the two. Though he may be a bit shorter than his brother, he makes up for it with his slightly higher I.Q. level.

Sai- Sei's older twin. He's the more boisterous one of the two. Though he may be slightly dimmer than his brother, he makes up for it with his slight height advantage.

Sei+Sai- Twins caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. A slight error in calculation landed them in Cindering Ashes. The two arerperfectly synchronized and can share each others thoughts. They each have only one black wing seeing as how they're, not in the literal sense, attached to the hip. They have sharp nails and teeth that deal quite a bit if damage if need be.

Kiyoshi- The youngest of the group. He's a real firecracker and has a bit of ADHD. He's the most innocent and child, not only in the word's most literal sense. He's the fastest member of the group due to his size and agility.

Enjeru- The most conceited one of the group. Every other word out of his mouth has to do with him. He's very fashionably and cares about his looks more than anything. He's also the tallest of the group and believes it was his gift from got. Enjeru ahs the talent of being able to levitate objects at will.

And that's it for now :]
Perhaps i'll make a comic strip of sorts later on after I develope more characters XD

]]> ~Maple-Gunman Big Cy http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/11855708/ http://Maple-Gunman.deviantart.com/journal/11855708/ Sat, 17 Feb 2007 13:44:11 PST
It's about this mob of meerkats called 'The Whiskers' that run around the Kalahari desert, living day by day. It's actually quite interesting. It's almost like watching a TV show with real People.

Their hardships, their dining, their family, everything they go through is recorded. They even have names for each, individual meerkat.

No, it's not one of those shows where they give the animals voices either. You can just tell which meerkat is which. Like Flower, she's the dominant female of the Whiskers. She wears a radio collar around her neck so the people tracking these meerkats can figure out exactly where Flower is. And if you find Flower then you find the entire family because she rules it with an iron fist along with her mate, Zaphod.

Merkats even get evicted from the family but those are usually females who give birth since the dominant female is the only one allowed to have breeding rights. Sucks, doesn't it?

Although these meerkats seem very interesting and it's basically focused around them, I can't help but keep my attention on the rivaling family of meerkats, the Lazuli.

The Lazuli are just like the Whiskers only their in a different family. The Whiskers and Lazuli are sworn enemies and will attack each other in a vicious battle on site. Naturally, the Lazuli have a dominant pair of their own.

Thus, my attention is drawn to the dominant male of the Lazuli, Big Cy. He's the meanest and biggest meerkat in the entire Kalahari desert and is not one to be messed with. How do you think he got the awesome name?

Big Cy is by far my favorite meerkat and definately remains my absolute favorite. He's just that cool :]
