My artistic strengths and weaknesses!
Strengths!
-I work fast. VERY fast.
-I have some strange skill at pencil-shading in without color to make crazy ammounts of shadow details in clothes.
-I've got nothing else to do most of the time.
Weaknesses!
-I work fast. TOO fast.
-Color kills me 96% of the time. Thats why you never see anything new, colored, very often, unless it lacks that crazy detail shading.
-Ink. Inking. Re-outlining. Any form of going back over my stuff and darkening it with anything permanent.
-It hasn't evolved many steps outside of the 'sketch' pond. Even when colored and cleaned, it forever looks unfinished.

At least my body's finally settled down to just one irritating symptom. Unfortunately, the sore throat + low supply of things to drink + coughing until my throat gets less phlegmy = ow.
Oh. Oo And mom got Harry Potter 4 and Narnia on DVD. Things to watch while sick :P
God... this sickness is starting to get really hellish. Hot, cold, hot, cold, nauseus, coughing, randomly sore all over. Money's getting tight lately, so we can't get anything to eat ATM...

Anyhow! The LBTL Olympics were fairly fun, but I got major sick on the way back home so now im miserable with an insanely bad cough and throat. Its what I get for sitting by a smoky fire all day, and warriors smoking the rest of the time.
Visual Com, 5th 6 weeks of school. We start cartooning.
<3.
Wes is going to be my project for the grading period exam, the 3D model I'll make in the next one, and is getting lots of practice. I'm starting to master wes in cartoon form.
Ooh. And I drew a pretty lil' bat girl. And borrowed [Hummingbird] for a few quicky practice draws >> (Sorry Laura, your characters are just too much fun to draw ^^;)
From the World of Warcraft General Forums :) I'm the one who started the thread. woot!

*long sigh* I love music.
I can't be on very often since my brother when not hand-and-hand with his girlfriend Sara is usually IM-ing her and/or all his friends from school and Dagorhir.
I'm actually involved in it now myself. Faust (my character) is basically just Wes, thrown into the Aethenu world. Meaning, lotsa humans, dwarves, orcs, and a drow.
Faust's tunic is very Wes-like. Green with a white border, a proper tabard-length deal with the Aethenu gryphon at the neck. Tie on a blue-green patterned cloth around my head, and bam. Faust. I wish I could find the pics or YouTube videos. I'm not in the vids though.
Anyhow! *sweatdrop* My original comment.
Since my bro is away in Chicago with Sara, moms taking him to Valpo where Sara's mom will pick them both up, and my dad is up in Michigan until saturday with our cat whose having a few non-lethal but large issues to visit his mom, my grandma, and a friend of the family whose a vet. And ya know how cats love car rides :) 2 1/2+ hour ones x_X
Dah! Sidetrack.
That means I got the computer most of the day, and bro was nice enough to leave WMP with the OverClock Remix playlist of classic video game song remixes. I love the mario ones. The Sunken Suite one is SOOOOO relaxing...
Craptop, part 3. Now its the very MONITOR. x.o bottom left corner, a blotch and above it a slash of black, nonworking pixels, outta nowhere. Sends white lines across the bottom making it rather hard to see, and even the whole screen can get line-filled randomly. Pressure near the spot above the slash clears the top, but nothing works for the bottom.
Thats it. Its going in for repair. again.
Okay. The lappy is pissing me off. It works about once a day, for about 2-10 minutes. Then dies. And won't come back. -__-;... oh well.
At least I can still play... ugh... Warcraft 3... Its just not a substitute for WoW... But! I am doing more work on O.o the Order of Inari map I was making way back when.
Someones actually shown interest about again, outta nowhere.
I must have re-written the outline for LoI 2 about half a dozen times now. *sigh* Why can't I be obsessed with just ONE thing at a time? :/
Oh! Once my craptop stops being an ass, I'll probably have a TON of properly cartoon cartoon drawings to scan in; Its what we're doing in Visual Com now. Later, it'll be animations :D Unfortunately, my zip drive is maxed out with need-to-keep files in case lappy gets erased in the fixing process :o So I'd have no way to provide them. Someone apparently went to Elftown before at my school and its blocked. They have something against pretty much anything online thats not research, email, on the system or My Space. :0 My Space but no ET? W.t.F.
Just figured out how to at least temporarily fix it, just squeeze and press the corner with the wireless thing in the right direction, and pray hard. But then, I had a similar solution with the audeo port, and that failed, and ended up breaking, damaging the power supply systems, and sound systems.
I think I need an update.
-Gonna be leading a group of Daggorhir warriors in a demonstration battle series at Valparaiso for a school project.
-Gonna give a speech against the systematical eradication of christianity in the world, specifically, the de-christmasin
-Gonna continue to be addicted to World of Warcraft as I finally start gaining higher levels and making money.
-Gonna beat the crap outta my laptop if it doesn't stop scaring me with my internet connection option randomly vanishing on me, and having strange freeze-ups, etc.
Oh. And I'm gonna go cry if I can't even get at /least/ a "thats nice/good/etc" on my new art. And pout if I can't get any criticism.
Lol! XD Someone on Elfpack messaged me, so I decided to look at her page. She draws almost the same as me X3 Except she can draw females :P I dont have anything to work off of! >> Its not my fault I can't draw nekked women like she does. Still Xx I've got a rival! ^_^ But I think she's trying to seduce me O_o;
XD Oh my god. This is what I find when I start name-surfing on Elfpack; someone else who loves fchan flash music videos. A really really weird one.
(tracked it back to Newgrounds, since the original one I found on someone's EP house was on fchan :3

Hopefully that'll work.
Two new pics @ Wes's Pics, including one of Aura, a character who should be showing up in my story series soon; Which has had work done on it, as seen in the entry below.
If ya would, give me some feedback so I don't go into one of those why-do-i-even-
While night-prowling :P I remembered I'd done another chunk of The Legeands of Inari: Act II. And PLEASE, if you haven't read my series before, I'm asking if you could PLEASE read it and give me some feedback, even if its negative, so long as its serious?
More proof I'm totally insane :D

*dances to a nice techno beat of the OC Remix of Banjo Kazooie* damn, that was a great game >< myu.
Been putting that sketchbook I got to good use =D
-A few random sketches
-one of the Reanimator (Zarla) and Nightmare Before Kefka OC Remix things I had for the flash animation (Wes is starting to look more and more fox-like)
-A genaric manga character in the manga pose of one leg forwards, holding gun in perspective, so generic even though I made it all up, the teacher thought I copied it from a manga :X (yeah, a human, for once)
-Another generic pic, Wes lounging around in the grass sleepily with a butterfly perched on the tip of his muzzle. Yeah, I know, its been done 40 times before XP I REALLY love the way his face turned out, especially for a side-view.
-A banner for Elftown Foxes which still needs to be colored/scanne
