*raises hand in defeat*



Was supposed to be working on something else but I got distracted with this which is kinda like a 'test' for the other drawing, although this one was inked digitally (oh my god I don't even-) and I gave up when attempting to do the mech arm (which is notably absent in this pic since it is very horrible). I ended up spending so much time on this when, really, it's still just line art. *facepalm* Yes, do laugh mockingly at my exploits because it is rather hilarious in a sad way.


I feel really annoyed with this right now so I'm just gonna stop. Hopefully I'll be able to get back my vigor tomorrow and continue. The smart thing is to just draw the mech arm with good old mechanical pencil instead and scan that. Digital art makes me feel like a retard... more often than not. =_=

My burning interest in Transformers (movie-verse) got me feeling like drawing again. Not that I never liked it before, but I dunno, I guess you can say it's the 'IN' thing for me at the moment (previously it was Gundam 00, remember?). Yep, that's me - dashing from one temporary thrill to another.    


The idea was to draw her reaching out and touching a giant mech's hand. Well, whatever. >__>

Disney

No thanks to the new sneek peeks on Tangled, I now can't get it out of my head. Looking forward to the new Alan Menken songs (gosh, I hope they're good and they'll revert back to the 'old-school' type of Disney Princess songs. I wasn't fond of the Princess and the Frog jazzy numbers). I NEED NEW DISNEY SONGS!!! Gaaah!


I really should stop this feeling of anticipation... it will only make the waiting unbearable. 


Hirari, Disney-style. Well, I tried. 


I would upload that half-assed Rapunzel fanart I did during my internship in Animonsta (more relevant to this entry) but unfortunately I can't open the file cuz my SAI expired. ^^;

"We're all alone."

I finally cleaned up this old thing (it's probably over a year old, maybe more, so excuse the huge head, etc etc).


It's OC, Saiseki Hirari. A very typical composition I suppose, but I've always wanted to do something like this. And it's almost 5 am. I should sleep now.

Doodle 03 - Update. Oh shi-


On how that OC is coming along... I'm still stuck. 

I did some background research on the Gundam 00 universe (prequels, side-stories, etc)... and found out there already are similar-looking styles on other existing characters like the ones I came up with. Oh shi- Σ(゚Д゚;) The characters aren't within the main cast and don't appear in the actual anime, so I never noticed similarities until now when I've actually gone and poured over the Gundam wiki. 

There are 2 ways to look at this. On one hand, it appears that my ideas are 'mainstream'...? On the other, it seems like they're completely banal and predictable. -__-

... Back to the drawing board? 

*sigh* The things I do for the sake of personal enjoyment...... >__> Normal people would simply switch on the TV or go on a date or something.

Doodle 03 - Gundam 00 oc

So....
I started watching Gundam 00. Yes. Finally. I have not finished watching it yet but it gave me the urge to make an original character for that series... haha. xD;;; 

Why? Because I like Setsuna. I think his name is really catchy - Setsuna F. Seiei. xD And there's a severe lack of decent female characters to pair him up with (and as you already know, I like my anime intakes with pairings on the side). 

That one potentially canon option in the form of Marina Ismail is, well... unacceptable. That woman... oh, don't let me get started. Feldt Grace, I kind of like... but that ship barely floats as it is. Too bad. Anyway, at this rate I prefer Setsuna to stay gay over his Exia rather than pursue any of these girls (and god forbid certainly not Marina!).  

Back to the point - I doodled some hairstyles but none of them really felt right to me. So I'm still... working on it. I have a potential first name for her though, which is progress at least. Might even start a drabble on this... if I can maintain my interest.

I'm sorry to assault your eyes with my wonky-faced mary-sues. 



The short, straight hair is a bit too... serious-looking, IMO? The one with the hairband thingie reminds me of Ranka >__>; The wavy ones, on the other hand, look pretty typical... I always end up drawing curls. And the first one, which I liked, looks so similar to Hirari's hair. Lol~ Frustration.
