I Apolligize for the Lack of Content…

Well, I said I’d but posting more content here, along with working on Aeonian Knight and other projects, like Mother Fureza – Chapter One, and Elena and LJ Vs. Chapter Two. Well, sadly, one thing has set into play. Well, two or three things. First, laziness has set in. Which is a pain in my rear, because I have all of Aeonian Knight to finish up and I haven’t been working on it like I should. Secondly, depression and perfectionism kicked in. I’ve been majorly depressed thinking about things in my life, and its really hard to just move on and forget about it. Sadly, this is affecting my art greatly, and stopping me from drawing in huge productions like I normally do. I’m afraid, I’ve become a bit of a perfectionist, and is not happy with a lot of my work, despite of the fact I’ve improved at least three or four times this year alone.

Lastly, I’ve been highly critical of my own work, not thinking its up to par with what I’m capable of doing. I’ve able in a 2D sense of making stuff highly detailed, as I’ve proven with some of my sketches. It’s just, I’ve been kinda off towards art, despite of the fact I have a few requests and gift art to do for friends. Other than that, Tiredness has kicked in, and I’ve been drained a lot. I dunno, maybe I should get back into video games, again. So, once again, after seeing stuff from art colleges and the like, I’ve been thinking of maybe getting some more formal training or doing something besides art for the meantime. I’ll hopefully get done with Aeonian Knight by next month sometime, so I can pick up a copy. That’s it. Later.

Messing Around with DS Tools.

Yeah. Today, before I get WarioWare D.I.Y. in the mail, I decided to work on DS home brew again. Namely, Colors. Anyways, I figured out something last time, and it helped me greatly at the moment. I’m thinking of using this program either for 2D Flash Animation, with me drawing the backgrounds and frames on the DS of course…or, doing an animated comic with the DS. I like animation, so I’ll probably go ahead with option 1. This will take awhile, but I’m planning to release something major soon. Also, I can probably make sprites with this if I wanted to, so I’m gonna think about that as well. I finally needed to dust my DS off, and now I’m having fun doing it. Anyways, that’s it. Back to the drawing board, or in this case, touch screen. Peace.

Upgraded to WP 3.0 and Some Opinions on the Art World.

Well, first things first, I’m upgraded to 3.0 now, but that’s not what I want to talk about. What I’m gonna talk about is how fake some people can be in the art world, and how much people are assholes now. Basically, one of my friends and I have been talking earlier about the art world and its people, and it makes me think; what kinda gull do people have nowadays to put down people’s hard work, just because they don’t like the person? The main thing I’ve observed over the years with people is, if certain artists aren’t liked, they take it out on their hard work. Which annoys me to no end. To be frank, if you can’t do better than the artist you are “critiquing” ,which once again, there’s a difference between insulting and critiquing, you should be quiet. As simple as that. But, once again, there’s people online that believe they can get away with insulting people over the internet.

Now, I checked again today on that fur site, I won’t mention, and I lost another watcher. Which isn’t a big loss, if they are gonna be pricks for no reason. I’ve honestly learned not to give a steaming shit, if they are gonna be assholes without a purpose. Maybe they are looking for pron, and I’m not supplying it. Whatever. I don’t draw pron for the public anymore, look elsewhere. Now, remember what I said about artists being mistreated if they are not liked? Well, if they ARE liked, nothing ever happens to them. They can be the biggest assholes known to man, and nothing would never happen to them. Which is kinda fucked up, but it goes to what mom said long ago. “If you are liked, you can do no wrong. If you aren’t liked, you can do nothing right.”

Now, when it comes to popularity and shit like that, I don’t give a shit any longer. I’m drawing for me, not for people. As for the fur site, aside from downloading pron, I don’t really give a shit anymore. The people there are pretentious cunts, who look for nothing but mature pics, and expect you to draw the same. Not everyone on the site are like that, just some elitist pricks. And for you guys who hate me using that term, “elitist”, too bad. Anyways, you can’t expect everyone to like what you do, that’s a given. Thus, I’ve learned the hard way. But, when it comes to random morons who watch you, then de-watch you for no reason, you really have to wonder, if its really worth it to deal with such, thick-headed, fucking morons. Anyways, I basically stated what I had to say. I’ll get to adding pics and stuff later. Peace.

What I’m Gonna Have to Do.

Some ideas are plowing through my head as we speak. The whole store thing I have in mind is this. I’m gonna get copies of books, shirts and prints, here. From, AD to other books I’ve done. Possibly, at least 7 or 15 at a time of one comic. What I’m planning on doing is this. Once I’m get copies of my books, I’m gonna hold them here, and once people want their copy of them, give me the address, and once I get the money, I’d mail it off to them. Of course, this is for much later on, and to be honest I need the money. I’d also be doing this for prints as well. So, here’s how the prices would be.

Single Comic Book – $15.00

Graphic Novel – 100 pages or more – $35.00

T-Shirt - $20.00

B/W Art Print – $10.00

Color Art Print – $20.00

Eventually, I’m planning on making a DVD with my short animations. I don’t know when this will be, so don’t ask me for now. It’ll possibly be in Fall 2010 or Spring 2011. One thing that will have to change, is the video game music wouldn’t be allowed. So, I’d have to use stock music, or music I’ve made. But yeah. It’s on the list to do things, I just need to start the project. Other than that, the DVD’s price I’ll share soon as well. But for now, that’s it. Peace.

My Views.

So I woke up for Nintendo’s Press conference a bit late. So, here’s basically the things I am amped up for. No new Star Fox announced (typical) or a revival of the Mother series (never expected that either), but Nintendo DID throw some curve balls, and knocked it outta the park.

Zelda Skyward Sword – I woke up late so I didn’t see the press conference with this. But what I viewing now it looks pretty awesome, and I’ll definitely buy it.

Goldeneye 007 -  Meh. I loved the original, but I’m skeptical they might mess this up like Rogue Agent. We’ll see though.

Kirby Epic Yarn – NO! Why didn’t they revive the 3D Kirby game they announced?! Anyways, it looks great, I just was expecting the 3D game.

Metroid: Other M – It looks like this is a more finished build, and the graphics and gameplay look solid. Too bad I’m not a Metroid fan like Carl. X3

Donkey Kong Country Returns – Fuck yes.  Finally, and you have a health bar this time. Throw in Tiny and Dixie being playable, and I’ll pick this up immediately.

Wii Party – ….Mario Party with Miis, moving on.

Mario Sports Mix – Hell yeah! Playing this definitely.

Golden Sun Dark Dawn – I haven’t played Golden Sun that much, but from what I’ve played it was awesome. Getting this as well.

Now for the main two big announcments.

The Fucking Nintendo 3DS!! – Call me a Nintendo fan-boy, but this system is fucking WIN! Wii/HD quality graphics, movie watching capabilities, and compatible with Nintendo DSi games, this is difinately a buy.

Kid Icarus Uprising – Not a fan of that series, but this game tests out the quality of the 3DS, and boy am I hooked.

Well, that’s my blog. Peace.

Why I’ve Been Turned off to Art.

I dunno if I addressed this already but now I’m gonna state why. Drawing has been slow, because I’ve been kinda turned off to it. I’ve been kinda focusing on other things, like right now, Wario Ware D.I.Y. I really have been turned off to drawing for people, drawing for the public, etc. Meaning, the majority of my work will be here. Whenever I draw again. Right now, a trade of mine have been completed, and I’ll post the art of it, within the coming days. But yeah, I’m starting to find other things to be into besides art. I dunno, I’m “getting a life” so to speak, I guess. I was supposed to be working at the library soon, but I guess that fell through, since I’ve heard no more of the plans, since months ago.

But yeah, I’m really interested in this game. Just being able to make your own mini games is inspiring me.  I wanna make some featuring my characters and friends of course. And also. I always wondered why some people refused to get a art account at a website. Because, its better to manage your own site than to hear people bitch and whine, about how your art supposedly “sucks” or “isn’t art.” It’s things like this that makes me DREAD art school. Anyways, it’s late. It’s 1:53AM over here. I should get some rest. Nintendo’s E3 Press Conference tomorrow. Hopeful, Star Fox or Zelda will be mentioned. Peace.

Get Cozy.

Yeah. For now on, unless I decide myself to return to the art world, I’ll be posting here. More than likely, I’ll get a special someone to join this website with me, so we can run this website together. Also, I’ve been interested in WarioWare D.I.Y. lately, so more than likely I’m gonna make various mini-games of my characters and friends and upload it here. But, until then, peace.

Characters – Wanda the Crow

Name: Wanda the Crow
Age: 23
Species: Blue Crow
Weight: Sexy!
Fighting Style: None.

Wanda is the newcomer, amongst the girls, and already one of the most attractive. Wanda hails from an area near Fureza, where she lives. She’s a kind-hearted babe, but can be a bit aggressive and seductive, when it comes to men or getting what she wants. She’s proud of her assets, and sometimes flaunts them constantly, to taunt male admirers, even flashing them sometimes. But other than those qualities, she’s a proud woman and not really whorish, but she is playful when it comes to sex and her feminine wiles, that’s a given. Other than that she’s also pretty smart when it comes to Math and Science work at her local college. She desires to go on an adventure with her friends one day, as it’s her dream.

Characters – Holli Kappawitz

Name: Holli Annabell Kappawitz
Age: 22
Species: Golden Aeonian
Weight: *Ahem!*
Fighting Style: Street Brawling

Holli, is one of LJ’s longtime friends, and was once the leader of a girl gang, that she managed. Although, when she met LJ, so wanted more things with life, so she left her previous, trouble-making life behind to join the OCCrew. Holli, is really attractive and was actually the first babe I created, before Ashely’s redesign. Holli is usually calm, but can be quick tempered sometimes, when something sets her off. She’s also a pretty skilled fighter, due to her past life as a leader of a gang, and is sorta muscular because of it. Life is whatever you make outta it, and she’s been working on fighting for a better life for her and her friends. Simular to LJ, she’s really loyal to her friends, and will defend them no matter what.

Characters – Liana Kamiji

Name: Liana Ana Kamiji
Age: 20
Species: Half Aeonian/Super Human
Height: 5′ 4″ (5′ 3″ without shoes)
Weight: Ahem!
Fighting Style: Legendary Fist

Liana is the female form of LJ, caused by the full moon, or by transformation. Liana has her own personality, and is not like LJ at all. She’s kind, giggly, but flirtatious, and sexy. And she knows how sexy she is and uses that to her advantages. She has the same skills as LJ, but watered down, due to she’s a female, yet she still has fighting skills to defend herself. Liana, unlike LJ, never spends much time training, she’s spent doing other things, like hanging out with Ashley, Maya and Mika, and doing other feminine things.
