RaTare

Weeklong hiatus to go on a mission trip. It was really fun, and I worked hard. Which reminds me, commissions are still open. (Shameless advertising.)

Anyways, just posting up some new art, since I’ve got a lot of other things to do.

Maybe livestream a bit… or perhaps pick up LaTale. Haven’t done that in a while.

 

Lucky Destiny

 

magic’s in the fingers

 

Forever Alone dump

Yo, and by the way, I’ll be ordering Long Arm from Powflip, as well as their Big Dumb Book.

And I’m trying to code a tumblr theme too. I already coded one. Check it out at http://altimys.tumblr.com.

The receding throb of school

I was pretty excited today, since I actually completed my first commission.

I’m honored to be commissioned by Samiraku, a wonderful artist. Please go check out her deviantART gallery. This is her original character Mori.

... Mori is one of the hell captains, a very serious hard working guy. The only times he can really forget his worries is when he can hear birdsong. But there are no song birds where he is...

I enjoyed doing this commission very much, because he is such a beautiful character, in personality and design!

Commission slots are still open if you’re interested.

3 other pieces done since the last post:

  Point Chibi commission

Happy birthday to xxxRushi, who was featured on this blog here.

Online club assignment

Drawing on my hand in class. Got scolded by mother. Never completed.

Ah, school is almost over and I’ll soon be reclining at home, drawing like a maniac. Unfortunately, I cannot rest yet, for this Saturday I have a violin festival. And I’m not big on practicing, but I have to for the sake of my pride and my sister’s.

Also this weekend there will be a local arts festival. I most likely will go, since I’ve gone every year I’ve lived here. And maybe I should invite a few friends so we can stare at the pretty pottery, paintings, and all sorts of goodies.

Night of Havoc part two and other stories while I was gone

Turns out my director didn't kill me.

Thank you, God.

Now on to other topics, XD.

Recent pictures. I won't bother putting up the link because you guys know where my deviantArt is:

 

Thanks for bearing with me.

I did create a Google Chrome theme, with a few bugs in it. Preview:

 

This winter break, I guess I got kind of bored.

 

And if you have a deviantArt, and you’re interested in me drawing something for you, you have 2 options to earn yourself a drawing!

1. Enter Wytewulf’s group RC-Squad’s contest. It’s Star Wars-based. I’m offering a full-body color drawing to 1st place, a non-color drawing/colored chibi for 2nd place, and a sketch or a non-colored chibi for 3rd place.
2. Commission me! The only currency I’ll take is deviantart points, because I do not have a Paypal. More information if you’re interested is listed here: http://speckledluminance.deviantart.com/journal/37255945/

Ah, for Christmas I got:

• Gift card to Borders
• Zombies vs. Unicorns
• Travel pillow
• Fuzzy socks
• Fingerless gloves *thank you soooo much*
• Hazelnut chocolates
• Headphones
• Strathmore smooth bristol pad

I’m one happy person. ^^

Been reading a bit of D.Gray-Man and Monokuro Kitan. My mother thinks that D.Gray-Man is devilish. It’s hard to reason with her. So I guess I’ll have to read it secretly.

Ciao for now~

50

This is the 50th post on this blog. Seems I've come a long way. Sort of. Not really.

Been busy lately. But then I've also been procrastinating. Shoot me now. 0_0

I've got a tegaki, but I don't have a tablet so it won't be great. And I won't be posting a lot on there. And whatever I post on there, I'll probably post on here as well as my deviantArt.

I haven't posted picture of the day in a long while, have I? I don't really have anything yet~

Some recent pictures - check out my deviantArt for more info - I'm kind of tired of linking each one individually.

From my tegaki: http://tewi.us/tegaki/dblog.php?u=119842

Aiyaaa! So busy - I have to go~ See ya all.

Update after a long time, plus Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae (Hell Girl)

Sorry guys, haven't posted much. A lot of my time has been spent roleplaying on TBA Forums since the people on there write like freaking chapters, and I can hardly keep up. But it's fun . . .

So I've been watching Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae (Hell Girl) and it's so awesome. Except for the effects (they were so lazy) and that one scene they play over and over again, it's great. The music is good and haunting, the concept fabulous. Rated R. But I seriously did not know the rating till I was told so. (O_o)

Art!

Altair, for my roleplaying

Imys (pronounce like imy, except add an s at the end, like IHM eze)

Ramine, as requested by Lady Lillian on TBA Forums for the roleplay

Alphario, for the contest (Did this at last minute)

Split, a collaboration with my friend (click here for details)

Japanese Girl, collab with same friend

Jamie, the 2 of ♥ for as requested by Vincent on the roleplay, (my character Altair supposedly drew it)

Anime Cyborg, collab with same friend

dA Style, for a contest

MS, a little thing I did a long time ago on BannedStory. Representing my thoughts back then.

And that's it, lol.

And as for those still waiting on my requests, I will get them done by the new year, promise! ♥ So loaded with homework...

You guys are great.

Wonderland Roleplay ... Manga?

Hi fellow potatoes!

I've been rp-ing recently on TheBlackAbyss Forums on their Wonderland roleplay. And I guess I got so inspired, I decided to create a manga/comic of it. Only one page so far. I also need to know if you'd rather it be right to left, or left to right format (manga or tradtional).

See my dA for details.

Haha, just wanted to post this. Have a great weekend, my potatoes.

Emu

If you look at the new blog, on the right, there is a cbox named Emu.

Emu is sort of like a chatting box, except you have to press refresh multiple times. It's now exactly instant.

And I don't think we'll use Emu a lot, but if two or more of you happen to be on, you can chat through it.

Working on stuff.

Finished:

Altair, an OC for a roleplay. Visit my dA page for details.

For Jcdr on dA. Her contest. Character: Geio
Check my dA for more info.
Dang, I need to get my priorities straight.

C♠rdturning

I wrote a review about a book for my local library on the book As Easy as Falling off the Face of the Earth by Lynne Rae Perkins. In return, they sent me this nice new book, The C♠rdturner (ok, the book cover really has the spades symbol in it, but you can see that it's called the "cardturner") by Louis Sachar.

Everyone knows that Sachar is a great author. Just look at his past works.

Well anyways, I'm not done reading it, but so far, I've got to say, it's an amazing book with that trademark Sachar style. Alton Richards has a great-uncle who is uber-rich but is dying. Ever since he was little, his parents initiated Alton to tell his great-uncle "I love you" or "You're my favorite uncle" and etc., so they would be included in the will. ($_$) Well, the great-uncle is turning blind, so he enlists Alton to be his 'cardturner', where he reads the card to his uncle and helps him play bridge. That's right, bridge.

Apparently, bridge is a complicated game that I don't understand yet, and as Sachar says, it is not played a lot nowadays, and young people are especially clueless about it. Count me in the clueless group.

Also very apparent, since my copy of the book was received from the library, it's a "advance reader's copy - not for sale" that reviewers/libraries receive and get to read before it's sold to the public. Mwahahah!


That's all for now. I hope.

Without a spoon

Today I was about to eat my lunch when I realized I forgot to bring a spoon. (O-o) So I had to dump out the food from my thermos into a small cup/bowl (comes with thermos) and "drank" it. My friend was staring at me weirdly the whole time.

That reminds me, have you heard about the spoon killer? A bit of very lame gore, but it's hilarious if you like lameness. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VDvgL58h_Y

And the rains come tumbling down

It rained hard here. Floods. The school (not mine) behind our neighborhood flooded so high, the cars were covered halfway. Oh yea, this was last Wednesday. I'm a bit late.

Pictures!

Geeks

...meant to be geeks, or meant to be together. Your choice.

Girl and Zombie Bunny

Nameless OC by my sister. She prefers her to be nameless. Bunny was supposed to be cute, but I messed up on the eyes so now they're zombie-like.

Random Icon

It's just my avatar on here, so I'm not going to post the picture. You can click on the link if you want.

Pirate

For my friend. Request. She loves pirates. Apparently.

I am too lazy to post the current list of requests. That'll come up in another post hopefully.

dA activity has spiked to 200+ messages a day. Mostly spam though. That's ok. Though it takes me an hour to check everything.

I like The Black Abyss's new forum! --> [link]

Where is the $$ for my markers?!? Arghh...

Halo Reach comes out in 15-ish minutes. Not that I'm rich enough to buy it, but the new features and graphics are awesome. Plus, it's the last of the Halo game series.

Days are busy. Nights are filled with homework. Feel like a homework factory. Input: blank homework - output: error filled homework. Bleah...

Read some Duarara today. So funny and good. Some of the stuff I half-expected. But great read anyways! :D

Some new stuff

I'm too lazy to update the list now. So here's something else.

I've made some art recently. Here's to showcasing them.

Shadow King for Demon-in-the-snow

Listen up

Welcome to my Doorstep for ShavaniDray

And lastly, Sunday at its Best

This is my OC, Rael. (pronounced RA-ell)
Click on the link above for more info.

Friday was one of those terrible days where I felt that I was nothing - no personality. My friends barely talked with me. And that night, I couldn't find my camera that I had lost Sunday at my church. I started to stress out. Then this counselor in my church walked in and she sensed my stress. I told her what had happened and she prayed with me. I felt better after that, but still distressed, because my camera was a Christmas present given to me by my parents. Later that night, she found it, and I was so happy and relieved! That kindness totally canceled out the terribleness of that day and made me feel glad to have someone like her to talk to.

All for now. Happy labor day.
