Why :Short Game:

Sat, 08 Aug 2009 19:45:19 PDT

How to play
0. Must not find 'Echhi' and 'Emo' images offensive and/or korny
1. Must be 'Windows XP' or up
2. Download it from here:
_{Mediafire: [link]
Sendspace: [link]}
3. Unzip it and open the folder "Why"
4. Run "Play.exe"
5. If "Unable to locate component. This application has failed to start because d3dx9_35.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." appears, run "dxwebsetup.exe" with internet connection, then run "Play.exe" again
6. If all else fails, don't play it. It's an ugly game anyway... Better save 5 minutes of your life for something else, heheh...

Gameplay
-Put your mouse over the black circles to turn them white.
-Click a circle to remove.
-There are 9 layers of circles in total.
-Tip: "Have at least 60% of white circles without losing one"

Softwares used
Adobe Photoshop
DarkBASIC Professional
Gamecrypt (plugin)

Comment
Another short game.
It didn't turn out to be as good as I expected though. It's more of a picture viewer than a game...
(It's audio-less by the way)

Tried out a different pattern, wasn't so bad and I prefer the way the finished plushie looks with this one. The big head is kind of suited to chibi styles a lot more.

Yes, that is a shark-unicorn-dinosaur-dragon.

Yes, I am probably destroying my spine from drawing like that.

No, I have no regrets.

Simply WOW, over 400 comments!! Thank you all for your kind words! I am excited about each one! Because some of the pictures got a bit over-commented now, I'll change the comment function. It would just be too time consuming to stop by all the older pictures. You can, of course, still write in my guestbook or you look at a couple of other pictures that have not become so much love yet. ♥

Amigurumi Plush Baby Murloc

Fri, 23 Jan 2009 05:38:18 PST

--Edit: If you want to see any more of my crochet or craftyness, check out my craftblog [link]!--

Yes. yes I did.
I crocheted a baby Murloc.

**FULL VIEW**
... BWAHAHAHHA! This took quite a long time, I gotta say, but that's mostly because I was drafting up the pattern during it. And figuring things out, like getting the bend in the limbs without changing hooks or sewing parts together (that was interesting...) and so on.

I realize the face isn't quite right, the spikes could be better, etc etc. Also the colour in the pics I realize isn't dead on; it's a lot closer to the blue in real life, I promise XD
This is a test. This is only a test.
If you don't know what a Murloc is, the cartoon pics up there are it; it's a critter from World of Warcraft, to which I am hopelessly and sometimes unwillingly addicted XD The "Mrlg" stuff up there is the sound they make.

SPECS etc:
Height: about 9'' sitting down (can't actually stand on his own...)
Yarn: Medium weight scraps I had. I know the multicoloured blue doesn't work so well but it was all I had that was close XD
Hook: H
Time (including pattern time): about 12ish hours.
Working time: ... maybe half that? Honestly.
Model: My boyfriend
Murlocs(c) Blizzard
All that work and the finished product (c) ME. Dammit.

So! What do you think?
Like him?

... He needs a name...

Mon, 01 Aug 2011 21:51:59 PDT

I ended up missing Thursday's and Monday's "I'm My Own Mascot" update because of Otakon, so I thought I'd whip up a special color cartoon to make up for it.

Had this idea for quite some time, glad I'm able to finally put it on paper. I act this way more often than I'm willing to admit.

Anyway, we'll be back to your regulary-scheduled "I'm My Own Mascot" on Thursday.

My dream vacation

Wed, 28 May 2008 23:23:14 PDT

I have always wanted to visit a tropical island. And it feels like I am in need of a vacation so I did this for my website. I am doing a bit of an over haul. changing the BG art and updating the galleries so it is more professional looking and better organized.

Also on the agenda is completing commissions. i have 3 people waiting. As soon as those are done I will be opening my commissions again.

I gave up my job in NYC and left new jersey to mellow out in ohio and financially stabilize for a bit. I am using the move as a chance to take on more serious commissions, and freelance for a while.

Sun, 02 Dec 2007 10:50:29 PST

A very funky new tag thing...
If you clicked this you have to draw urself in what you are wearing now, on one layer.
(you dont really have to, lol i did cos it looked fun. Was looking at deviations of my friends and came across =LuPY click pic. i was enjoying a nice cup of coffee at the time so i thought i'd do one 2 )

All on one layer, done straight into flash with line tool and brush and fill tool, was a challenge cos i normally separate layers, there was a lot of rubbing out pen tool lines lol

Hope you all like and if you do one from seeing mine, show me!!

Doll Repaint as Mary Poppins

Sun, 20 Jan 2008 23:26:15 PST

FOR MORE OF MY ART, PLEASE VISIT MY WEB SITE AT WWW. NCRUZ.COM . Link below:

[link]

This celebrity doll repaint was inspired by Julie Andrews' classic Disney character of Mary Poppins.

I used a 16-inch Mary Poppins doll here produced by Robert Tonner Doll company - a very nicely made facial sculpt but the facial paint left much to be desired. So, I completely removed factory facial painting and hand painted it to more faithfully replicate Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins. The doll's hair has been extensively restyled to more accurately represent the character's hairstyle from the movie.

The photo on the left shows the doll as it looked originally before repainting.

Repaint is a new form of pop art, wherein the doll's face is treated like a three dimensional canvas, with the added challenge of painting within a very small area . Since dolls are basically miniature pieces, brush strokes and shading have to be very controlled and precise.

-- acrylic paint and ultra fine brushes

(Note: I am not in any way affiliated with the Tonner Doll company

Toxic Syringes - Colorful

Stick People Drawing

Sat, 15 Jul 2006 14:34:59 PDT

I was watching a stick-figure movie and came to wonder what their perception of quality would be, and so this was born.

The "real" sketch on the canvas is probably what took the longest in drawing this picture. It has like...as many layers of semi-transparent paint as there are problems with my apartment hygiene.

Saleen S7R Vector

Thu, 15 Feb 2007 08:11:30 PST

Saleen S7R
Saleen introduced the S7, the first true American supercar. The Saleen S7R’s 7-liter racing V8 generates 600 horsepower and is capable of speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. With its extreme ground effects engineering, the car could be driven upside down at 160 mph and still stay attached to the road !!

Vector | Illustrator CS2 | 20+ hrs
Well this is my most complex vector piece so far. Took about 3 weeks on and off to complete, glad it is finally done.
No mesh on this one, just normal fill, gradients and blends.
Thanks to *CRWPitman for the blending tutorial.

As usual CnCs are welcome

edit
I put "glasswind.deviantart.com"

edit
comment disabled. please I beg you. do not report me any "theft" case if you see them on DA, sheezy, gaiaonline, live journals, forums, and myspace. let them do whatever they want. I can't do anything about it anyway. just be nice to them and let them know that the avatar is made by me. or...just not bother. K? K? AAAAAIGHT?!?!

note
1. Used Flash 8. Partially frame by frame, partially tweening
2. Frame rate was 16.
3. 9 of separately animated layers. o: (some people asks me this)
4. took 3 hours because in the middle I made a mistake and I did some whole poop over again.

Sun, 23 Nov 2008 20:00:56 PST

EDIT:: so, i've been seeing my Twilight pics all over the net, and it's getting hard to keep track of who was given permission and who wasn't, so i'm going to stop allowing re-colors/re-posting of my drawings... i'm sorry! i really am!
PS; just so everyone knows, i did end up reading all the books in January! haha.

So yesterday i saw Twilight.
Now, i've never read the book, so original characters meant nothing to me, but i fell in love with the movie version of Edward Cullen.
That boy was intoxicating.

hope you like!

*PS- I will definitely be reading the book.

EDIT: THANK YOU everyone who commented on this picture, or favorited it, all comments and fav's are so greatly appreciated!!! <3

Muppets take Midtown cover

Thu, 26 Mar 2009 12:37:25 PDT

Muppet Show #1: Special limited edition variant cover

Oh, didn't I tell you? Boom also got the rights to produce all-new MUPPET SHOW comics.

The Muppet Show comic is written and drawn by Roger Langridge and is formatted exactly like the original show - skits from all your fave Muppet show acts.

I was asked to produce this variant for Midtown Comics at very short notice, but I relished the opportunity to 'audition' as a Muppet artist. Stay tuned for more Muppet work from me in the coming weeks!

Edit: Wow. A LOT of childhoods being re-awoken around here
Yes, it is good to see them back again. Just to soothe a few nerves, these comics are NOT a product of Disney. They are written and drawn entirely by Boom artists, so we have complete freedom to do it completely old-school. As it damn well should be

Meji's little shoulder angels

Fri, 01 May 2009 16:19:24 PDT

An idea I and Chuu came up with.
After looking at a lot of "PaperChild" images, we felt the urge to create our own. So, Chuu grabbed her pencils and started drawing this one idea we had came up with.
Hope it brings you lots of laughs. :D

This is Raven, my beloved OC.

I've been wanting to challenge myself for quite some time, and I finally did it. Here's my first go at lineless artwork/painting. It was friggen hard! And extremely time-consuming. I don't know how you people do it. HOW do you people do it?!

I also deliberately chose rather dramatic lighting this time round, cos I normally find it rather tricky.

I don't think I've ever worked this hard on a picture before; I was pushed to my very limits with this. And as tough as it was, I loved working on it. I've learnt so much from this piece, as well. I'm pretty happy with it.

Edit #3: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE DD. Thank you, thank you, thank you. This piece is very close to my heart, so I can't even begin to tell you how much I appreciate this.

HarryPotter.BoyDress-upGame.v2

Sun, 09 Mar 2008 18:12:44 PDT

dress the Harry Potter boys!

v.02 10.september.2008

FINALLY! I finished this version ages ago, and I totally forgot about it
this is what I've added:

reset button!
skin color options
WANDS XD
(different shapes and colours! also right hand or left hand choice)
brooms
cloaks, scarves, one more hat, a funny tie

aaaaand:
save and load! ;D
I thought I'd explain this part, I'm not sure if it's clear how you use it:

If you wish to save your character so you can come back and edit it later, there's the option to get a numeric code. You can find this by opening the wardrobe, and clicking on the bottle below on the left (it's supposed to be Polyjuice Potion XD). You dress your character and then go to the bottle and click "MAKE", this will create the code for your current character, simply select the numbers and copy them by right-clicking with the mouse, then you can paste them anywhere.

If you click the button "DRINK", it will turn your character into whatever it's typed in the code bubble. By default the code you find it's the same as resetting the character, but if you replace it with the code you previously saved and then press "DRINK", you will get your previous character

you can also write random numbers in there and see what happens! (here's a hint: first 13 numbers are color variables, the rest are items)

I hope I've explained this right XD if it's still unclear feel free to ask ;D

EDIT: ooops, the flash still says v.01, I'll change it later

_{what I'm planning to add in the future:

pets
more clothes!
more hairstyles
Durmstrang and Beauxbatons uniforms
and whatever else you suggest ;D}

v.01 09.march.2008

I've been working on this for ages! now it's finally ready... or at least the first version XD (I still want to add LOTS of things!)

Right now you can only dress the boys I'll start working on the girls soon. There's not a wide variety of clothes or colors either, but I guess the hair and face part is kinda fun XD

if you feel there's something I should add to the game, please tell me! only keep in mind this is just the first version and a lot of things are obviously missing (there are no brooms or scarves yet! D: )
