                <description><![CDATA[ I will probably not be doing adoptables in the sets as gifts this year.<br />Instead, I will most likely draw small (I am busy!) colored sketches for those who have bothered to interact with me at all recently, or in general. I figured that I'm not interested in making mass-produced presents and do things my way, which is much more selective and has a lot more care in it. I don't have a huge BL, any popular artists to asskiss, or any secret santa anythings so there's no need.<br /><br />HOWEVER - For anyone that is doing adoptables and wants to put a char of mine in, I will happily make you one of my own. That way we have a fair trade. Not that I think that's going to happen, per se, since the last time I got put in one of those out of any generosity was over a year ago at least, but I just thought I'd put it out there.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Sorry for all the journals! e_____e This is a question for YOU, and not so much about me, although, I have to tell a story first (sorry.)allowing this person to get away and have people thinking their character is original when it's just a butchered onyx makes me really frustrated. People leaving comments saying "wow! cool character!" Good god, you have no idea.<br /><br />I was tying up some loose ends today and I had to note an artist asking her not to finish an art trade for the art theif, even though the character she'd been asked to draw wasn't the one ripped from me.<br /><br />For two reasons. The char could have easily been ripped off of someone else, and because I don't think we should just look the other way when art thiefs do their thing and be friends with them to their faces. That's not fixing the problem.<br /><br />The reply I got was "well it's a trade so I have to do it now, doesn't matter if the person is accused of theft."<br /><br />And I noticed that this particular artist was snarked on A_S for saying "I'll cut off your balls/breasts if you steal this char from me."<br /><br />I have to wonder why the artist is so noncommital to stopping art theft when it's <i>someone else's work</i> (mine) but if it's their own, then threaten violence (even if it's not an executeable threat.) <br /><br />I'd like to see what would happen if I did the exact same thing that happened to ME to this artist, and see how funny that is, and if I don't get a bunch of fanbrats flaming me. It's just the fact that people are willing to look the other way for MY work but then go back and pretend to be all anti-art-theft that makes me so frustrated.<br /><br /><b>So here's the question. Saying that you didn't know me, what would you do in this situation? Do you want to help other people when their work is stolen, even though it's not your own and you don't know who that person is? If the person accused is a friend of yours, could you look at the evidence objectively?<b><br /><br />I won't be offended if you don't agree, but I want to hear why. Discussion time, people.<br /><br />((A note: please don't tell me that I'm overreacting about the rip unless you've noted me/asked for a note for the comparison and seen the actual thing, alright? You can bitch at me all you want after that.))<br /><br /></b></b> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'd really appreciate a comment or something just to know who's reading, because this is important. I try not to clutter your inbox with bunches of pointless quizzes and journals, so I hope that you can spend a couple minutes at least skimming this over. Thanks. (:<br /><br />I know that sapackledog artists/young artists in general are FREAKED out about copyright and omg my char don't steal!!!11 I'm not like that. I don't bother with those annoying as shit copyright symbols, I simply tell you who the character and design belongs to (more for a reference in case you were interested in that character than OMG I OWN THIZZZZ.) I don't threaten to come into your house and kill you if you take something of mine.<br /><br />I dont have huge watermarks (or any watermark at all) or do any of these things because I'm fairly confident that nobody really wants to take said designs/art/etc. Because you say "don't steal" on the bottom of your drawing a theif is going to say "Oh NO! NOW I CANT STEAL!" Don't think so. I'm also fairly <b>wrong.</b><br /><br />Now, I don't know <i>why,</i> in order to troll me or piss the shit outta me (neither really :U), but I realized that I haven't said this in a couple years and I wanted to make a few things clear:<br /><br />1. Please don't use any of my work for referencing at all. Not the pose, clothing, anything. Why?<br />Because refrencing off of drawn images like mine ruins the point! <br />How do you know what I got is right at all? You don't. (and I promise you there WILL be something wrong, at least with /my/ art.) That's why you look at real photos/VERY TRUSTED works (I.E, davinci, drawings in anatomy books) for reference.<br />How do I get the poses for my pictures? Well, I usually go sit in front of a mirror and observe what I look like. If it's a dog, I go look at pictures of dogs. Even better, I go to my friend's house and play with his dog, watch the dog run around and see it chew on my arm. That kind of thing.<br /><br />Not only that, people never manage to include the fact that the source material has been referenced or link back to me, meaning that did it "all by themselves." Ahhh, no. If I did want to upload some photos and you wanted to use them as a ref, that's fine- but I would hope that you would ask and give me credit and a linkback. It's simply polite and I do the same when I reference other people's work on dA.<br /><br />You can ASK ME!! about how I draw, how I do what I do, and I'm perfectly willing to help you and show you how I make my work. You don't have to squint at my art to try and find out how to do things- I dont think any of my methods are seekrit and I don't try to keep them hidden from you. (Nor are they that complicated at all, really.)<br /><br />2. I hope you guys trust that I'm not overreacting when I think things are blatently copied/stolen from me. I am not overly protective of my characters, but that doesn't mean they can't be stolen. yes? Just because other artists go bazooka and get their fanbrats to try and murder anyone who they is "OMGAH COPYING MEEEE" doesn't mean that I do.<br /><br />((I don't do callout journals. Note me if you're interested.))<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Art: I'm interested in making my lines more confident. All of them. And being able to make one line that works instead of trying over and over again, resulting in something messy. Basiclally, it's a change of habit and I'll have to practice a lot to get there. <br /><br />This is has nothing to do with this idea that sketching something and having it be loose is bad. Or that guidelines or an undersketch is bad. Being able to do without them is one thing, but I've had people watch me draw and say "you use <i>guidelines</i>?" like it's some kind of thing to be ahsamed of. I don't even like the word 'guidelines.' <br /><br />On another note, I realized that I tilt my drawings very badly; they "lean" to one side and it's especially noticable when I'm drawing something like faces. I think this is just something that came from not paying attention. I'm working to make the lines reflect equally across the line. <br /><br />Life: Doing pretty ok. Got finals.<br /><br />Uploads(?):<br />+Crap I realized I owe Axie- Once I'm done drawing something, my "shit I need to do stuff" voice in my head goes away. I found a sketch that I finished ages ago, from my contest. It's also crap. I drew something new and shiny, AND when I went to fanime I commissioned Temporary-Glitch to draw from that picture, so she also drew the jacket. Cool, right?<br /><br />+ random crap. Pages of Marz doodles, some half finished portraits (nothing I make is good enough to finish coloring)<br /><br />+ A SURPRISE. (:<br /><br />That is all. Sorry if it's long. I do say that most of the time, don't I...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I CAN'T THINK OF ANY. But I wish you all a happy day of pranking anyway.<br />Nothing happened to me, no pranks, no nothing. I lost one of my favorite earrings but hopefully i can check the office tomorrow to see if anyone's found it. <br /><br />We had this awesome idea for pranking our teacher, though we couldn't do it cause not a lot of people would help.<br />We were going to have people, starting with a little and then going to a lot, raise their hands, and if she called on us we'd have to say "umm... wait, I forgot" or "nevermind, I got it" or something like that. THAT WOULD BE FUNNY. <br /><br />SO imagine I did that instead of what I really did (nothing) and share with me all your pranks c8<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ..and of course, that's normal. I'm almost always pissed off/upset about SOMETHING, and when I'm not, people are scared for their saftey (goes to show you, but that's a different story.) I just really wish that feeling of lousyness didn't affect my art.<br /><br />And again, as ALWAYS, it comes back to not being able to draw people. URGH. Dogs haven't been helpful at all either, so there goes that.<br /><br />I don't mean this in a "boo hoo, I feel bad but I really don't and I wanna say I feel bad so that I'll seem deep and people will comfort me" sort of way. I honestly am just.. really frustrated. <br /><br />I put 5+ hours into a piece which I started out being really excited about, and after all that time put in, I realize that it sucks so much and there's no way I can continue it. Doing that kind of work and not having anything to show for it just makes me feel awful.<br /><br />And I feel the worst about my characters. They obviously deserve better. I'm to a point where I really want to draw Kuta and Dawn, (because I understand them, and just because they're so... so alluring, in their fantasy world which just keeps getting more twisted the more I think about it), but at this point it's more like me hindering them than the opposite. I can SEE them both, I have so many things I want for them, but I can't make it happen.<br /><br />So yeah, feeling lousy. sorry for just kinda shoving it all out there without the proofreading I usually do; I'm too tired to really care. /shrug/ It's not like people read things anyways lol. <br /><br />+ a quick note on the "I don't care factor" +<br />> I often don't update my journal, page, etc because of the "I don't care" factor. Here's how it works. <br />1. Find possible idea to talk about/possible comment/art to submit<br />2. begin writing/uploading to dA<br />3. say "who cares?"<br />4a. if answer is "nobody," abort objective<br />> then ask "do I care if nobody cares?" if yes, SEND ANYWAY<br />4b. if answer is "everybody," ask question "are you sure?" Return to 3.<br />5. Continue until action is reached<br /><br />SO YOU SEE, I often have comments and things that I do not post because I figure nobody cares. And often times, when I DO post something, I see that people either (a)don't care or (b)totally miss my point and respond with something that proves I'm wasting my time thinking about the issue and that nobody cares.<br />I'm a very talkative person, but I don't talk just for the sake of hearing my own voice (I hope.) The reason I don't post often on people's journals, art, or anything else, is because I go through this process and the answer is almost always "WELL, nobody cares. I guess I wouldn't want to be a waste of time." <br /><br />>moral of the story: I'm not being rude, or high and mighty, I'm being NERVOUS. I DO check dA and I DO see all your arts. I'm just easily intimidated by you guys. (:<br /><br />(ps. I know I've explained this before- just it's still bothering me, I guess.)<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ 1. comment more on people's art, journals, etc. This doesn't mean I'll be commenting because I'm obligated to, it means that I won't be so indecisive about posting what I think.<br /><br />2. get better grades in school. Okay, I know a lot of people post this, but I really do want to improve and be able to get a 4.0 this semester.<br /><br />3. get focused on art. this means less time on dA, wajas, lj, and oekakiart browsing around and more time studying anatomy and what. <br /><br />4. Finish things. Including my paper cranes, cleaning stuff, projects I have laying around, commissions, and things I'd promised for people. There's a lot more, but these are the most relaven.<br /><br />5. stop procrastinating.<br /><br />6. Be more outgoing. Honestly I hardly get to spend time with my friends, and it's not /all/ my fault, but I should try harder instead of saying "oh okay" and letting it drop.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ it's christmas<br />and I just got a new computer monitor<br />to hook up to my laptop <br /><br />So I can work on really big pictures and stuff<br /><br />the problem is <br /><br />HOLY FUCK IT MAKES MY GREENS BRIGHT.<br /><br />BRIGHT. BLINDIGLY OBNOXIOUSLY BRIGHT.<br /><br />Everyone else's art looks fine. The colors are kinda different, but it looks good enough to me.<br /><br />Guys, onyx is supposed to have a light yellow green coat. It's not supposed to be blinding. It's not supposed to make your head hurt like mine is hurting now.<br /><br />So I'm stuck now. My art looks hideously colored on this new monitor, but I don't know if that's the monitor or my old one that makes my colors look bad. I know all monitors are different but this is such a huge jump that I'm really worried. <br /><br />If you think I should CHANGE THE CONTRAST of this new monitor to fit my old one, say that. But if you think I should use this new contrast to draw and my old monitor was wacked up, say that.<br />I REALLY need help on this. I'm going to have to make a crapref with onyx's RGB codes and make them really different because I cannot stand how she looks with this monitor.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I never update this thing. <br />It feels kinda like I'd be cluttering inboxes with unimportant random stuff. <br /><br />Dunno, some people can be like... really easygoing about that kind of stuff but I'M NOT. so sorry.<br /><br />Anyways, I know I upload sporadically but soon I'm going to get off my lazy ass and post some of the things I've been working on. <br /><br />I've got-<br />My contest prizes (okay ~<a class="u" href="http://axienekura.deviantart.com/">AxieNekura</a>'s is a sketch but IT'S A COOL SKETCH I PROMISE OK<br />NEW CHARACTERS!!111111111<br />o19's 2009 ref sheet<br />A crapload of sketches and doodles<br />Adoptables (I'm GOING to finish. Probably not before the holidays with finals coming up BUT yeah.)<br />Life related stuff<br /><br />SOON. <br /><br />And I also know I don't comment much. I do try, but a lot of times when I'm typing it I'll be like "pph nah" and just press the back button.<br /><br />It feels kinda like now, it won't matter WHAT I say because it's going to be already said before. Or that anyone else could say something like what I would write. And if that's the case.. I just won't bother. <br /><br />Do you guys want my critique? Because I don't think it's mean or anything (at the same time people are tell me things like "HURRRRRR you hurt everyone's feelings") <br /><br />Soooo I promise I'll work on commenting more. To me, I care that I make meaningful comments that aren't like "omg I lav ur style ur so original I wanna fav everything in your gallery it's all so cute" and the things I take my time on.. they're like 10-30 minutes worth of thinking and typing.<br /><br />unless I'm not being serious.. then it's like WOAH HEY 5 SECOND COMMENT<br /><br />TL;DR: Don't be thinking I hate you/your art/I don't care, I just.. never really go through with my comments very often.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

OR we can do one of your chars + one of mine together. etc etc. <br />+ my half will probably be digital and chibi-ish<br />+ since I'm picking what trades I want to do, it means I promise that I can finish every one no matter what. If you just never finish your half... expect me to be pissy about it, seriously.<br />+ if you're feeling up to one of my characters in particular, say so. <br /><br />I DO have my winter holiday adoptables coming up, but I feel like I have to redraw them and I might not finish.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Sorry about this huge textwall, guys, but if you donÂt feel like entering in this contest, donÂt bother reading it all.<br /><br />I know I said I wanted a picture but this is waaaaay long, plus I seem unable to draw in photoshop lately. D:<br /><br />ANYWAYS.<br /><br /><b>So you guys wanna hear about this CONTEST?</b><br /><br />The basic idea is to design a hoodie for any of my characters, but especially Acumen because he hoards them XD IÂd prefer characters where it makes sense |D Onyx, Charge, Narrick, maybe, or my people characters if dogs arenÂt your thing. <br /><br />This is NOT NOT NOT because IÂm stuck for ideas or anything like that. ItÂs because itÂs something FUN. Yeah, fun, because people on dA forget about fun a whole freaking lot. Show everyone what you can do! <br /><br /><b>the rules of the contest go here 8></b><br /><br />1. Enter as many times as you like. Quality over quantity, as always, but with designs you may want to try a couple different styles and colors. <br /><br />2. I must know which character(s) you had in mind when you designed it, and I must know what the whole thing looks like. (IÂd hate to mess up the design.) You could draw the hoodie by itself, or draw the character in the hoodie, or anything else, really. I provided a lineart for people who want to do the former and are lazy.<br /><br />3. Everything must be done by you and be your own work. Any stealing/tracing/etc gets you the boot (but IÂm sure nobody would do such a thing.) Referencing is fine. Using brushes is also fine.<br /><br />4. Put it in color! If itÂs a black and white hoodie, thatÂs one thing, but if itÂs a colored design, I donÂt want arrows pointing to different places saying Âthis part is supposed to be blueÂ or Âthis part is supposed to be light gray.Â I want to see the complete design.<br /><br />5. If you want to ask me for a ref that I havenÂt put up, go ahead. I might note or IM it to you, but IÂll make sure you get it. <br /><br />6. Ask any questions, donÂt wait until itÂs completely done for me to say ÂOh, well thereÂs a problem with thatÂÂ and waste all your work. D:<br /><br />7. The contest starts right now. I donÂt have a specific deadline set yet, IÂm thinking sometime in September for those of you who want to do more fancy things. The final final deadline, if I was to extend it as much as possible, would be October 19th, but IÂm sure it doesnÂt take that long. <br /><br /><b> Links </b><br /><br /><a href="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff129/pyonchitchi/lineartblank.png">[link]</a> - blank lineart (any details you wish to change, feel free)<br /><a href="http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff129/pyonchitchi/howitsdone.png">[link]</a> - simple example, I guess<br /><br /><b> Prizes???</b><br /><br />I want this to be a light type of thing, just something fun where people arenÂt concerned about winning. ThatÂs why this contest doesnÂt require a whole lot of effort (unless you think it does, I guess,) and why IÂm not offering up prizes which involve money (also, because IÂm cheap.) Just my art. |D<br /><br />ThereÂs one first prize winner who gets a full color picture of one of their characters (of their choosing.) They choose digital or traditional. IÂll probably also draw my character wearing the hoodie they designed. <br /><br />One (or two, depending on me and the amount of people who enter) second prize winner(s) get a colored sketch of a one of their characters. They choose digital or traditional and the character.<br /><br />One (or three, depending) third prize winner(s) get a simple sketch of a character of their choice. They can pick digital or traditional, but it wonÂt make a difference as I see it.<br /><br /><b> I AM WORRIED ABOUT DESIGN RIGHTS!</b><br /><br />DonÂt be. If youÂre a winner of the contest, it doesnÂt mean that I own the design of the hoodie. <br /><br />ItÂs like if I was to go out and get a piece of clothing. I wouldnÂt own the design on it, IÂd own a piece of clothing. ItÂs the same with this contest. Acumen or Onyx or whoever will have a hoodie designed by you. And theyÂll wear it. And IÂll credit you. :3 <br /><br />If you want to draw your characters with the same hoodie or anything like that, go ahead. YouÂre the one that designed it. XD<br /><br /><b>How to win this contest</b><br /><br />IÂm going to be subjective with this as if I was going shopping, and all the clothes were the same price. IÂll be picking winners based on what I like. Basically, IÂll say ÂHm. Would I wear this?Â I think that a dog hoodieÂs main design would go on the back, because itÂs most easily seen there, but you never know. Also, if you want to add other accents, like jewelry or sunglasses or whatever-else-I-canÂt-think-of, go ahead.<br /><br />IÂll be getting my buddy ~<a class="u" href="http://tirelesslumber.deviantart.com/">tirelesslumber</a> to look through all the entries with me, but thereÂs no point value scal... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Yup, I'm back from my one week vacation in Canada n__n; WOW it was beautiful. And.. rock.. slidish.. BUT BEAUTIFUL.<br /><br />I probably should have said something.. but I dunno, I didn't really want to deal with it. I won't get all mad if you guys didn't notice haha XD <br /><br />I have a big pile of deviations and messages to sift through.. well, it's big for me anyway. So be patient while I get it all under control, there are a lot of interesting things I want to look at.<br /><br />Moving on, I've got a tentative "Design a hoodie for Acumen" contest. It's just something for fun, really, with my art for prizes (no subbies, sorry D: ) though I dunno if there would be enough people who actually would participate XD!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I'm absoulutly sure that someone, somewhere, will feel the need to say something like "your art isn't good enough for you to complain about this." <br /><br />Please, if you think that, keep your egocentric whiny comment to yourself. Usually I'm fine with people opposing my point of view, but saying I don't have a right to speak my mind because my art doesn't meet this and that critera? What kind of stupid idea is that?<br /><br />--<br /><br />I was working on a character design the other day, and as I doodled away I realized something. <br /><br />I looked over at ~<a class="u" href="http://tirelesslumber.deviantart.com/">tirelesslumber</a> (seeing as the species belongs to her) and I said, "Wow, I really can't put this on dA."<br />She said something to the likeness of "yeah, that'd be smart."<br /><br />And it got me thinking.<br /><br />I think my art is going foreward. I think I'm improving. And I think my creations are getting more sophisticated. They've definantly gotten better since the start of my artistic "career."<br /><br />There's so much in my mind that you guys have never heard of. Do you know Kade? How about Bikuta's parents? Or UMA's current status, what's going on in there? Obisidian's new design? Is Narrick a half werewolf or a whole werewolf? Who is Narrick anyway? What happened to Syme's hair? <br /><br />I was excited to show you all my mind, but at the same there was a sinking feeling that I didn't really want to show any of it at all. I've very protective of my creations. All the time I've invested, all of my work, it's not made for others to abuse. Now that my ideas are growing and expanding, it's all the more important that I keep them with people who I trust.<br /><br />I'm not leaving deviantart. I'm just not going to post new character designs, art that I think is important, art involving plot, the like. You probably won't see too much of a difference. I'm still picking out what things I want to post publicly.<br /><br />My stuff will instead be friends-only on livejoural and on my private photobucket album. I want to share my ideas, but I'm going to be more picky about who I choose to share them with. <br /><br />Since this isn't a "I'm leaving dA baww" journal, I wouldn't be all that suprised if nobody really cares. *shrug* But anyways, if you want to talk it over with me, note or comment or IM, whatever. I'm happy to chat.<br /><br />TL;DR: If anyone wants to see my real art, it's at LJ.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Go as in "go get my kiriban whoop"<br /><br />I should probably put in my full rules:<br />1. I'd appreciate a specific character. I don't feel inspired to draw "oh anything"<br />2. If it's a person, I'm cool with that, just that it will probably be a headshot only. n___n' anything below that usually doesn't like working with me. <br />3. You can request which program/media you'd like me to use, but I might change if I think there's a more fitting one.<br />4. No porn, nekkid people, and I might ask you to choose a different character if it's copyrighted (I don't really like drawing characters from an anime I haven't wached, a book I haven't read, etc.) <br /><br />I'm just curious; what do you want to see me draw? Not "more of" necessarily. People, characters I haven't shown you guys, or just keep plugging away with the dogs, whatever. I don't mind, I just want to know. c:<br /><br /> ]]></description>

I'll probably prod you all when it's a bit closer. I don't have any super guidelines but I'd prefer I don't have to draw "oh anything."
