I finished Buri Hamachi finally~~~

New Camera + Old Art

Better quality photo of Starstruck from This Post.

Guess who just got a new camera ITWASME

It's a Sony (I love Sony), I don't know exactly what model. I don't pay attention to that kind of thing. But it's blue and it's amazing. The screen is absolutely enormous. I would take a picture of it but...that's kind of hard. Without, like, a really difficult arrangement of mirrors and such. I'd use my old camera but that bitch has been REJECTED.
When I turn off the flash, instead of making everything hella blurry, it just kind of...softens things. It's hard to explain. Here, I'll show an example.

Yeah, yeah, I have a huge forehead. I know.
This was taken yesterday without the flash. The thumbnail looks fine, but if you blow it up, you can see how "soft" the picture looks. Which isn't a bad thing, exactly. I really like how the colors came out. With my old camera, I'd be just a blur of grays and browns.

Well, here's some art that I couldn't upload because I had no way of getting a decent digital file until now.


This assignment came out very odd. It was a better idea in my head. The glass is too white and you can't even tell those are hands inside the hourglasses.


Here the assignment was to draw ourselves while we were drawing. Or draw someone else while he/she was drawing. But since I'm lonely and I don't talk to people, I grabbed a mirror and drew myself. I wear that same jacket every day. OTL


This was my favorite out of all the things I did during Intermediate Drawing. We basically had to gather up a bunch of knickknacks and arrange them with a good composition and draw them. Here I have a rubber duck, a candle, sunglasses, a sharpie, a magnetic bracelet, one of those backpack hook things, and a metal cat. Yes, a metal cat.
I liked this because it helped me see more things relative to what it's next to and to help learn to add details better.


For my Buri Hamachi video, I've taken a short break on that, but it's more than halfway finished. I'm almost done coloring all the frames. All I need to do is create a background and then arrange it in the animation.

I've started on my very first canvas piece. I'll post a WIP sometime after it doesn't look like a green sea monster (it really does). For now I'm off to play Sims.

Buri Hamachi

I've seen a couple different versions of this video: -LINK-
Despite the fact that I have to get all OMG SUPER-HUGE SHOUJO EYES about it (I've been working so hard to get out of that style...), I think it's a good project to work on in order to get myself back in animation.
Obviously, it's nowhere near being finished. What you see is what I've got. I only have the lineart for three frames out of seven. So I just need to finish up drawing the frames and then color them. Then arrange it according to the video pattern. And upload it, and yay, it'll be done!

Eugh, I hate my digital art. Things would be so much easier if my version of Photoshop had the pen tool. ;A; But it doesn't, so lineart takes forever. Sob.
I may or may not decide to stay up late tonight to finish it. I feel like if I take too long of a break, I'll just give up on it. OTL

In other news.

I just spent almost $100 on art supplies today. Correction, on canvas, an easel, and a portfolio tote bag. If the items were regular price, I would have spent over $200. But the art store (it was my first time going to this place, it's really cool!) was having a huge sale. Buy one canvas and get 2 free. How could you pass that up?

Even though I have 5 canvases, I haven't used any of them yet. ._.; I'm...kind of scared to. Two of them are the same size, so at least if I mess up on one, I still have the other one.

Oh, this easel I bought...♥♥♥
It's wonderful. I've never had a "real" easel before now. I used to have a plastic one when I was little, for my crayon drawings and such. ;)
This easel would normally cost around $80, but I got it for less than $50 because of the sale.


Sorry about the crappy photos. I plan on getting a new camera sometime over the summer.
(It didn't come with the canvas, btw, I just put it there to test out the clamps and such)

I love this easel so much. It's adjustable and it also has a little drawer on the bottom for supplies. :D

Okay, well, this post is long enough, so I'm going to wrap it up now and work on my Buri Hamachi. Bye~
