Closing

For now. Too busy to take care of it and elena too .

Didn’t forget about the orders I got >_> sorry for not sending them for such a long time. I just didn’t have time to get to the post office sorry…

After I send them I’ll post an entry here and send emails to everyone(if I have the time )

Holiday

[EDIT] Yea , decided to send the orders after January 7. Sorry to those who I mentioned I’d send them before Christmas , I didn’t have the time.

I’ll be back after January 7 and will take care of everything I promised to do. Both commissions and orders .

Will also post better samples for the merchandise and samples for each commission type. Finish putting all the prices and focus on you people , sorry my life’s been chaotic xD. I’ll also add button designs for the Naruto Ex-Team 7 chibis that I made and might also make Orochimaru , Kabuto and Sai to make 2 sets (of course you can buy whichever you like not necesairly a set , just that I like them to have something in common <3. Also planning on making Raito and Missa from Death Note so Chibi L won’t be so lonely :3 I luff that chibi <3. Besides that , got other plans , just that those are secret cuz They’re for Otaku or Nijikon , whichever comes.

Now , if you’ll excuse me , got some packing to do <3

[/END EDIT]

Yea it already started a week ago but I didn’t have the time to update.

Gonna be away for a while , so if I get any orders sorry it’ll have to wait until I come back won’t have internet for a long time D:

So I just wanted to apologize for delaying the orders , I’ll probably send them from Constanta if I get all the addresses in time if not then when I come back home.

Been busy , now I’m gonna be even more busy >_> uni is gonna be hell in january and february , a personal project (secret sry) will kill me and take away all my time , then a comic strip for a magazine here in Romania will again take away a lot of time ….plus some personal projects , the commissions I didn’t get to work on and many more things to do . And many of them have deadlines in January so I’m a cooked goose xD.

Anyway , hope I’ll get more free time after that to take care of the orders , I really want to finish the stocks because they take up space in my room and  I keep bumping in them xD and it reminds me of what a failure I amxDDD

I didn’t even advertise this “sale” didn’t have time …. hope to get more time soon.

Anyway , merry Christmass everyone and a Happy new year! Have fun! <3

What now?

So nijikon ended …I’m sad that it did… why ? Because I met a lot of cool people that I

won’t be able too meet after cuz they live too far away… that makes me so sad that I feel like crying . A lot of stuff happened but I won’t rant about it here .

INFO And Hiatus

As an update . I started the Print for Full Metal Panic , although I barely sketched the bodyes …. it’ll take me a while to make it and I hope to be able to work like a machine but also make something good come out of it . I plan on drinking burn/red bull and cola as much as it takes to get the energy I need xD (and mood >_> Dear God )  Besides that I’ll edit the blog BIG TIME after I’m done with nijikon , gonna make it look nicer and add some more info once I figure out how this blog works better xD I’m not too used to it yet.

Boy the end of this year will sure be a busy one , but thank God for that ! I’ll have a lot of practice which everyone knows I need So I’m not sad or depressed about it , I’m happy ^^ I can improve while working ^^ and I hope I do! Yesh ! Where are my cheerleaders??? xD

Last but not least xD , the hiatus part. As many of you probably know already , I will be on a 12ve day hiatus from the internet world starting today. No Deviant Art , no MSN , no YAHOO! , no other instant messeging program or any other sites or forums , NO ANIME OR MOVIES! NO GAMES !!! T^T NOTHING! I must work so besides music sleeping food baths and feeding tha cats nothing will make me move from this chair and from working on PS >_> I’m gonna die xD

Well that’s about all ^^ See Y’all once I come back!

Wish me luck I’ll need it xD

[Status]*Update*

Well it’s been a while since I last updated here. not that too many people visit but well since I made it should keep it up to date.

Regarding my art I’ve been quite on a hiatus when it comes to digital art.But I solved some problems recently and I’ll be able to start once again. I was uncertain with my friend Elena if I’d be able to work with her regarding this shop , but I talked to her these past few weeks and we decided to take it more seriously. So I’ve asked her to start drawing more. She doesn’t really work with coloring in photoshop but knows how to use the program so it won’t be hard for her , I just need to force her into drawing more.Cuz she’s a lot more skilled than me and it’s a damn waste that she doesn’t do anything about it.

Anyway, so one problem solved.

Second problem was what products to make for the anime convention this November. But I finally decided on that too. I will be making :

• BUTTONS:Naruto Shippuden Ex Team 7.These will include Naruto Sakura and Sasuke in their shippuden outfits.I already painted sakura and sasuke , all that’s left is naruto.No kakashi sorry I’m not taking too many chances , I don’t want to make them and not sell them.
• KEY-CHAINS: 3 models with a character from the following anime : D. Gray Man; Ergo Proxy; Bleach. I did not decide yet on what character to make.
• PRINTS: 3 models of the main characters of the following anime: Death Note; Inuyasha; Full Metal Panic AND 3 models of one character from the following anime: Kiddy Grade; Full Metal Alchemist; Ghost in the Shell.Here I have not decided which characters to make.

• BOOKMARKS: 3 models of the following anime: Yu Yu Hakusho; Rouroni Kenshin; Hellsing.Again undecided what characters to draw yet.

Those are all the accessories I will be making for the convention. And I planned on making stickers and postcards and straps or phone-straps too but it’s already too much as it is and I’m afraid I won’t be able to sell them.

Also while I’m on the subject , I was thinking of taking up commissions at Nijikon while my friend Elena will sell and sketch and my cousin will run around taking pics of cosplayers bring me food and stuff xD (I’m gonna make him my slave!) xD. I did not decide yet if I will take commissions. I planned to for a long time now though I was feeling weird especially if I was the only one. But then I saw that a friend on DA Raluca will be taking commissions I got the courage to think about it xD Plus I’ve been talking to another friend who told me what he does at cons and how stuff works there , he’ been of great help cuz now I got an idea of what to do.So there are three options; either I take traditional commissions , digital commissions or both xD

• Option A : I take traditional commissions and draw stuff like sketches , detailed drawings and inked drawings.No traditional coloring I suck at that xD
• Option B : I take my cousin’s girlfriend’s laptop(Elena who’ll be coming with me) ,my tablet and if I got luck and take my brother’s girlfriend’s LCD screen too I will be able to take 2 or 3 digital commissions …depending on how long we can stay there and how long it’ll take me to make the commissions.
• Option C : I do both; take only one or two digital commissions and 3 or 4 traditional ones , again depending on how long they leave us stay in the alley xD.

So I’m not sure yet.

But regardless of that , since I decided to go to an art uni starting next year when I finish this sports uni , I realized I really need to sharpen my traditional drawing skills so I started to draw each weekend traditionally and I must say I think I’m noticing small improvement xD but at least I’m noticing. Now all I need is to buy all the right tools and I’ll have no problems. Although in the situation I’m in with cash it will take a while to buy them xD bleh I need to find families for my kittens , I can’t take care of 4 kittens specially since I don’t have a job. Life sucks ….I need a job….

Anyway enough with the babbling I’ll post some works I made recently which probably most people who visit this blog are from DA and already know them but who knows maybe other people visit too xD.

First I’ll post the team 7 pics I made of sakura and sasuke:

Now here are the first drawings which gave the start to my traditional practicing xD 3 weeks ago.

And a more recent work. The last fully colored digital work I did , a chibi commission:

Enjoy! And hope I have more time to update here from now on.

Work Work Work HARD!

Ahme yea …well as I probably mentioned probably didn’t I don’t remember I’m planing on working double the amount I did so far. Thing is I always start a project and then when I see what’s waiting ahead I get sick and start a new project. So I have quite a load of started projects but didn’t finish any of them >.< so frustrating xD

So what I’m going to do is post some wips to show what I started.

So first off is an original work I started at the beginning of the month

That’s how it looks so far ^^; not much to see eh? well I’ll be working on it this next month (June)

Next it’s a piece of which I’m proud so far except for one thing THE SKIN! I need to look at some references for the lips and nose they look like shit! xD oh God! I was oscillating between posting this up or not but I need to because maybe someone will help me out xD because I really like the sketch! and the hair T^T I don’t want to ruin it with ugly nose and lips… I maky choose a different type of coloring but I really wanted soft shading T^T

So here it is..DOn’T RUN!

Next up it’s a simple(so far) wanna be painting in the future but it’s huge and I’m so lazy when it comes to sceneries! ^^; but yea will work on it and add more things like maybe a boat someone on the dock some birds who knows maybe other stuff as well xD This one’s lame but here it is.

And the latest one , on which I’m working atm is a chibi SAKURA! she’s kinda my fav character in Naruto ^^; though I like all the characters in all anime I watched >.> can’t say I “hate” a character because it’d be stupid if you ask me…they’re just fictional characters…anyway here it is!!! *is proud of this one*

The pose is inspired from a chapter cover but I can’t find it atm ^^; *is lame* will look for it and post it up .It’s one where Sai Sakura Naruto and Yamato-thaichou are all aligned and kicking though it’s not chibi ^^; I’m too lazy to make all of them too >.< so I only made sakura.

Anyway, I have many many manyyyy other started projects but most of them are barely being sketched and others are sketched for a long time but T^T kinda too detailed and when I look at them I loose all will to color ^^;;; like this one for example.It’s an original character and too detailed for me T^T

When it comes to sketching I love adding as many details as possible ….but when it comes to coloring =____= I’m lazy as hell .___. don’t blame me ! xD

Anyway hope who read this enjoied the images and maybe some feedback? T^T any ideas/critiques would be appreciated!

Irasshaimase!

Hello! And welcome!

The blog is under construction will continue to work on it more in the following days.

The main purpose for this blog for now is to post wips of what I’m working on , news on what’s been happening lately  and hopefully in the near future open up an online art shop here..Although that’s gotta wait till I finish my exams.

For now there’s nothing interesting to see/read here but I’ll try to update it from time to time. At least like this I’ll be able to stop spamming my deviant art account watchers with my stupid journals ^^;

Well…see ya  around!
