With art, for me anyway, you just practice your butt off and keep telling yourself to just do it. with writing...you have to think up all the words and have a constant flow of creativity. D: it's so amazing i can't believe i ever used to write seriously...*shakes head* lol i can force art, but not writing....though i make it a point not to force my art, because then it's just not fun. ;3 heehee

ughblah~ i'mma take a quick shower. I'll come back after and draw up that purty avatar from the first page I think. :3 *bad with remembering names*

xD Haha. Well, that's the exact reason I can't draw well. I lack practice.

Alright, see ya soon!

@Anna-- That is my usual style. XD I just don't do shop commissions like that because it takes waaaaayy too long. I don't want to spend that long on art. >_>

@ Fabby - Ahh, I see.

Way cute stuff.
I may just have to request an art trade when things settle down for me xD

hehe I lied. I just went straight to bed xD That hot water must've made me sleepy or something, huh? :P

Lilith: Sure sounds great. Come back anytime. :3 (or just come to chat. either is fine with me lol) 8D

*just woke up* =w=;;

xD Good morning.

Thank you...though it's almost afternoon for me.
I love Saturdays. ^-^ <333

Yes, that would be perfect, thank you!
I'll start to draw your avie too! X3

Should I draw your current avatar?
Good morning, by the way~
I'm still kinda sleepy.

@ Shiva - xD Heh. I have Taekwondo on Saturday mornings, so that helps me wake up. I just got back from my lesson! >.>; My leg cracked like, five times.

Thoth Star: Yes, my current, if you please. :3

Anna: wow. I wish I could take any form of martial arts, but my parents don't want me 'fighting'. whatever. So I dance instead...but only in the evenings! I couldn't take a morning class. xD I like sleeping in if I can.

@ Shiva - xD I'm just learning to protect myself.

Ok, Shiva... Now I'm coloring it. I hope you like it~

I just woke up and it's already considered evening.. >_> I have some odd sleeping habits.

I took Taekwando once! I failed at it really miserably. I'm so weak.

@ Fabby - xD I'm pretty good at it. My sparring and aim could use a little work...

aceo really likes your art can u draw aceo

Thoth: I'm going to start drawing you now...you want your current? (it's changed a few times so I'm not sure what you want drawn...)

Fabby: My family won't let me sleep past 1pm so I'm not allowed to have such strange sleeping habits...but I stay up until 4am on a regular basis so..lol ;P

Aceo: I might be up for drawing you...not sure yet. Bandages are fun to draw though :3

I generally think that when people start waking up, I should go to sleep.
It happens occasionally.

-cries-
I drew you a picture using a pencil, so when I scanned it, it was LIGHT.
You could barely see it... ; o ;
So then I darkened it by tracing over it, and... It came out differently and uglier...
So then I inked it with a felt pen, since I don't really have proper inking supplies, but...
Then it just came out ugly.
D:

I can still show you if you want, but... It's so much worse than the original.
:<

TenTen: DD: omg i feel your pain. My scanner used to do that to all my pencil drawings and yeah, then i'd ruin it trying to make my lines darker xD it's a never ending battle of FAIL. lol And sure, I'd love to see it still. :3

Fabby: Well, I just sleep best during the day. Morning is best to sleep i think. I'd be ok never getting up earlier than 3pm or going to bed later than 5am. Perfect hours. 8DD

@ shiva:
-fidgets-
I kind of wanna show you, but I kind of don't... like they're really bad, except for the original pencil drawing that doesn't exist anymore because I erased it after inking.
>>;

I'll just show you! xD; I've drawn your avi like five times, so... =P

This was my first attempt. xP It was fine until I drew the face. D:

This was the original pencil drawing, which I rather liked... a lot... >>;
Until I scanned it, anyway. ; o ;

This was after I went over it again to darken it, but it's just kind of ugly... >>;

And this, this is just horrible. xD

And this, which I drew to cheer me up after moping about the pencil sketch. xD;;

>w< I...like them all. but LOL at seeing that whole process xD
and the pencil one is dark enough for me to salvage if you want me to try :3

coolio

xD;;
Processes are fun. >>;
It helps you understand the stress artists have to go through before they start eating their materials. xD;

OO:
Try, like... as in drawing my avi, too? >>;
O:

xD At least you guys have scanners. I have a digital camera and the angle always screws up my drawing!
