PH insanity and some OCs

Long time no post again, ugh... I've been drawing. Slowly and not that much. Let's see some sketches...

XD This is a "parody" of my own drawing of Glen, lolz. The original is in my deviantART gallery. I started this as a quick random scribble and when I posted it on DA, I somehow got lucky and it ended up in the most popular pics in the 8 hours interval, it had over 400 faves in a week. O___O

Jack and Glen. I drew this because of Kasia's comment on my previous Glen drawing. She said she wanted to do this to Glen. XD It's super quick (I drew it in about 1-2 minutes, I guess) and crappy, but I wanted to upload it here anyway, hehe.

Grumpy Alice is grumpy (or tsundere?). This is part of a bigger pic I plan on finishing soon. I still don't really like how her face turned out here. D:

Jack based on a panel from chapter 67. I just loved his expressions in this chapter so much I had to draw him. Maybe I'm finally starting to learn how to draw him. I really want to do a picture of him later, he's so cute. 8D

I revamped an old OC. It's a bit disappointing how little my style changed in 6 years, isn't it? D: I mean I've always been relatively good at drawing. Other people improve more in just half a year or so... OTL

This is a quick sketch of MauAcheron-the-crazy's character, Olivia. I don't like how her face came out and she looks too girly in my style. DX I drew her because she's one of the 3 characters I have to draw for a kiriban prize art. I've done 2 sketches for that pic already, but I just couldn't get them right for some reason. I feel guilty for not completing this request yet, because I've been sitting on that pic for about 2 months now... OTL

OH MY GOD!! Can you believe I drew VincentxAda smut?! Early in the morning I get fanart ideas like this. What the hell is wrong with me? -___- Vincent probably told her he'd show her some awesome magic spell which involves getting her undressed. 8DDD *shot* Uncle Oscaaaarrrr, your precious niece is about to get tainted!! D: I like this pairing even if Vincent is a "brother-obsessed creeper who buries his desires into vulnerable women". 8) And I actually like how this sketch came out, but I don't intend finishing it.

Woo~ That was a lot of... stuff. Pandora Hearts ate my brain a while ago, so most of it was PH again. I've been listening to a lot of Akiko Shikata songs while drawing lately. I'm also into Yuki Kajiura music again. Many of her songs remind me of winter, maybe because I watched PH in December 2 years ago, lol.

Anyway, here's a song by her I discovered just recently:

American edition of Fiction, WHY U NO HAVE THIS AWESOME TRACK?! FFFFUUUU

Birds, Pandora Hearts 61 and others

It's raining. We've had storms every day since Saturday. At least the weather isn't so hot all the time. The baby chickadees finally came to my window this morning. We have sparrows, chickadees, goldfinches and greenfinches. They come more often now than they did during winter. Even a woodpecker came once. XD
My budgie became unusually tame in the past few months. He somehow accepted me and he likes coming out of his cage now. He used to be so scared for almost 2 years, no matter how I tried taming him. And now he wants to rape my hand. XDDD

My stupid bird. Blurry photo, sorry. And yeah, that's my hand.

DRAWINGS

I haven't been drawing so much lately. (Again.) Here are a few crappy sketches I did:

Just some random guy~~ I was trying to practice poses.

The newest version of my Alec. Paint Tool Sai. My colouring has become so soft lately.

PANDORA HEARTS

I drew this in like 1-2 minutes, lol. It sucks.

Mom: "Is this a self-portrait?"

This is supposed to be Vincent, but his face and hair are so NOT Jun Mochizuki-ish. It turned out too much like my own style, I think. All I want to draw right now are crappy EMO SHOUJO pics of Vincent. Bleh. I drew this instead of doing a Fullmetal Alchemist meme.

Also, the last few pics were drawn while listening to Yuki Kajiura's Aquarian Age OST. I'm obsessed with Yuki Kajiura music again. (Or still?) I have collected a bunch of Yuki Kajiura OSTs by now. The only ones I don't have now might be the dot hack musics that aren't SIGN, Petit Cosette and Madoka Magica, which should be released in a few days or maybe it's already out.

OMG Royai + Other doodles

Recent sketches:

Roy and Riza from FMA. I drew this in like 40 minutes, 100% Sai. I'm getting fast, woo! Oh my gosh, I missed these two. They are still my OTP even if I'm not fangirling over FMA with such intensity as before. Is this good enough to be on DA? I wonder...

Just a random character I sketched a few days ago~~

Gilbert and Vincent from Pandora Hearts. I drew this today afternoon in a few minutes just for random practice. Have I ever mentioned that Gil is ridiculously easy for me to draw? 8D I love their "cube" hair, lol. And angry Vincent is a rare sight.

Anyway, I'm still working on the Alice shimeji, it's about 50% done now, though the harder animations will come just after the first half...

Awwwh f**k!! That small apartment-like place on top of our house (it's sort of like an attic, but it's not) was sold! I've always fantasized about that place and wanted to go there ever since I was a little kid, but now I never will. Nooo!! We should have bought it. My mother knew it was being sold and she didn't tell me! Apparently, it's just a small room with a bathroom, but but but... it would have been perfect for me to start separating myself from my parents and start living alone. And it was so cheap I could have bought it from my spare money. Nobody has lived there before, but now the owners of the block decided to sell it. And these strange people bought it, we are scared of them. If I suddenly disappear in the near future, it will probably be because they robbed us and took the computer... -___-; Oh well, it's no use crying over spilt milk...

I just rediscovered the Tsubasa Chronicle Future Soundscape OST again and "Hear Our Prayer" is such a beautiful song, I love it so much!

I'm inspired again! 8D

So yeah, I had a terrible artist's block, but I've been drawing some things again.

I really should have finished this by now. I've been sitting on it for almost a month. ^^; The hands are still crap, but I'm trying to improve~~

Random doodle. Just trying to practice kisses and hands. Referenced from a manga.

This is what happens when random inspiration strikes. My newest original character. I was inspired by Katie's cat girl. About 90% of my random characters are boys. I just find them easier to draw than girls. I don't like furries, but I sometimes like humanoid characters with strange ears and tails and shit. Ears can help enhancing the character's emotions. This is the first time I've drawn a character with doggy legs. Would he look better with normal human legs? Hmm...

Well, I guess I should continue working on that first WIP now. I've been listening to a lot of Yuki Kajiura music again, I just can't get enough of it. I also realized that I still don't have all the songs from the Tsubasa Chronicle OST. HUGE MISTAKE!

PH Valentine's day pic + Manga rant

So, this is something that was drawn by my dear friend, KGX347 at deviantART. Her original.
I just asked her if I could colour it and she said yes. Then I decided to redo the ENTIRE lineart digitally to practice digital inking (cuz I suck at it). It took me a few days, but I'm finally done with the inking. Hopefully, I'll start colouring it tomorrow. 8D

I heard today that xxxHolic was finished, so I went to read the last 3 chapters. The ending was kind of unsatisfying, though I kinda stopped liking this series when TRC ended. I think they should have ended it just with Watanuki inheriting the store and waiting for Yuuko. This last part was totally boring in my opinion. It made me like the whole series less. :\
I also finished Vampire Game a few days ago. It was a pretty good series. Nothing too epic, but it was pretty cute.
I didn't like:
- Illsaide. Seriously, that kid totally annoyed me. He was more powerful than almost everyone else, yet he was a stupid brainless douchebag, who never knew what he really wanted and kept hesitating and tinkering away throughout the whole story. Still, a lot of people loved him for some reason. I rarely dislike characters, but I really didn't like him. >:[
- My favourite character died. (Although this can be a positive thing as well, I love drama.)
- However, Illsaide didn't die. XD;;;;;
- The art. It was okay and shoujo-y, but I didn't like the proportions and the way the characters' mouths were drawn on their faces. When their mouths were open, I kept thinking that it looked off, I don't know why.
- Duzell was a vampire, right? Then why didn't he need to suck blood? (Or maybe he did, but the author thought that mentioning it wasn't important.)
- Everyone fell in love with everyone. That's why I don't like shoujo...
- Even the fairly intelligent characters did some really stupid things sometimes. Also, Duzell was ridiculously weak and stupid for a vampire king. Although they do mention this a couple of times. XD
- I kept thinking that the author was trying really hard to force some shounen-ai into the story, but it came out awkward at times.
I liked:
- The story was enjoyable and had some relatively good twists.
- I liked the humorous stuff most of the time.
- The characters were quite likeable, I guess. Although I wasn't crazy about anyone.
- The ending was pretty good, although I did feel like the author was rushing a bit and didn't explain some things in the last two volumes. Plus you could see it coming after reading the very first volume (or maybe first two volumes).

Oh, and today, I searched for some more Sound Horizon things and found this Dream Port single (?), that is a collaboration work between Revo and one of my fave Japanese "anime composers", Yuki Kajiura. 8D I'm currently obsessed with the 2nd song from it, it has practically the same melody as the first song, but this one is typically Yuki Kajiura-ish, it could be a song from the Pandora Hearts or Tsubasa Chronicles OSTs.
