Since unproductiveness is my middle name, I started playing on iRO's Valkyrie server!

The nerdiness no one really needs to listen to )

Macne Nana is...adorable. D: I think I like her design better than those of the Vocaloids, haha. XD;
keyk: (worry)
Ugh, headaches are really killing me lately. What a pain. I'm back form the trip, buuut, all of plans got thrown out the window. Buh-bye productivity. Sad day. I will get back to messages and such eventually! My room's been abandoned for two weeks, and I've got loads of critters walking all over the place. This means I need to start moving things around and prove to them that a human does reside here.

I've been missing the ape Escape cartoons on Nick lately. DD: And why is Specter being such a pain to kick around in 3? It took me awhile to really warm up to it, but I really do like Ape Escape 3 now! Not in the same way as the first, since that one took itself much more seriously, but this is one awesome cracky game. I'm am fully convinced that Specter's Pipo helmet does have some side effects now. XD;; I mean, WHAT.
keyk: (Baah.)
Ugh, I hate collegeboard. I officially suck at SAT's, good grief. @_@;; You should retake this, blah blah--uy. And it costs money. Yes, they tick me off. badly.

Anything and everything seems capable of giving me a headache, too. The hot weather on Sunday made me feel like dying. XD;; And, geez, those temperature headaches are THE WORST.

That aside, I'm still in I've-drawn-myself-out-mode, so I've been playing Ape Escape 3! It's a bit underwhelming compared to Ape Escape 1 (Spike, the MC, could fall off the stage starting from stage 3, and, man, did he deal with a lot more dangerous things than these kids), but it's still fun since the third takes itself less seriously than the first. XD It felt a lot more open in the first and not as straightforward when it came to deciding where to go? And, oh, gosh, Spike, always trying to be cool. I do like Specter better in 3 though. He gets a lot more screen time here, but I feel like he gets stupider and stupider each game. The time machine plot was probably the best one he had, but, uh, turn everyone into couch potatoes? make everyone sleepy? Fffff, Specter, does that Pipo helmet have side effects we should know about? XD; I also think the bosses are hilarious, but I keep dying during them. XD;; Spike's bosses....good grief, poor kid! They were somehow easier though. ^^a

I have not felt like internet lately, and I have been ignoring so much because of it. :/ Sorry, folks.

Staccato so much harder on the violin than the piano, ayayay. Drawing myself away, but so uninspired by fanart requests. D| I'm just not into fanart as much anymore. It's not like I have anything against it...I guess I just get into my OC's a lot more easily.

SO.
So like, [livejournal.com profile] psychofish and [livejournal.com profile] darkangeldani, wanna hang out next week? Since we're not going to AX this year and all. |D Next year, we probably will! And I guess I'll have a seller's permit by then, haha. But before that, can we drag your butts out for a hangout session? SERIOUSLY. I MISS YOU GUYS. D8
keyk: (Baah.)
I spent however many hours trying to plan something out to draw only to not get anywhere. AAAHHH, it's already 1:00 AM! Shiznits. I feel like throwing up. I'm so impatient. I should really stick to simpler things and then gradually go up the complexity ladder. Why don't backgrounds ever make sense to me? I need to look up more stuff on muscle structure and how they work. Observing in real life has not been helping me so far. I feel really behind in the art world. I want to catch up. |DD;

Also, guys: This request thing is so totally open.
keyk: (What.)
OK. It's time to get some more drawing practice stuff!

So ANYONE can request stuff here, but I have a couple of rules and junk.

1) It has to be original. No fanart, no characters or ideas that aren't yours, etc.
2) Give me a prompt. What do you want them to be doing, what mood should I establish, etc.
3) You may ask for backgrounds, objects, animals, abstract ideas--or combine them even. I.E. ANYTHING.
4) If you ask for original characters, you may ask for more than one.
5) Nothing overly gory or sensual.
6) Only one request per person. SCREW IT. GO SPLURGE.

Keeping in mind that it took me over a year to even get partway through the sketch meme, do not think these'll come right away. I WILL put a lot more effort in these though.

So go ahead.
I BEG YOU. PLEASE.
keyk: (smile)
Blah, blah, art )

Not sure if you'll see this, but, [livejournal.com profile] sakalayaan, I finally did your sketch request.. I'll poke you properly later.

Neglecting summer reading, tra-la-la-la-la!
I'd love to have a paintchat where people can crit each other. I really need crits, especially since I don't have a teacher.
keyk: (scared)
Our neighbor's kitties (and one stray) keep popping out of our bushes for god knows what reason. They scare the living daylights out of me!
...
But they're really cute. T_T;; One of them likes to rub up against people, d'aw.
keyk: (AAH!!!  MY BRAINZ!!)
And when I should be sleeping, THIS is what I'm up to.

I have to wake up early tomorrow, and it's 1:30 AM.

I'm bright.

Oh-so-very bright.

No, I don't know why this isn't that WIP from a few days ago.

I'm eating a gingerbread man a friend gave me back in December (that's perfectly normal, guys), and I feel really bad eating the head what with it's large grin and all. DDD| I...I'm so bad at eating cute gingerbread men.

MR. GINGERBREAD MAN DON'T DIIIE. B-but wasting food is bad. DD:
WHOA. Dude. DUDES.
A-a-a ONE-MAN ANIMATION (IS THERE A WORD FOR THIS). Last time I saw one of these was with Voices of a Distant Star! And MAN it's just amazing what these people can do--really inspiring.
I.
I have no words for this. But I have several faces.
No wait I do. The guy whose hair likes to stick up like an antenna looks pretty awesome--what, no, I don't have a thing for those creepy mysterious people who smile a lot--SHUT IT.
keyk: (What.)
EVA. WHY. Me and the popular series--REALLY NOW. Darn similar ideas. >_>;; W-well, I guess since CF has no weird religious imagery and Freudian stuff and creepy monster things, it's not THAT bad, but...STILL. The show's pretty interesting. I don't know a thing abut Freud though, so I guess I'm missing a lot, huh?

Dudes, I suck at rhythm. I cannot count while playing the violin FOR THE LIFE OF ME. Also, paneling is HARD. Me and pacing and timing are soo not friends. I have also gone through the task of fixing the older pages to look more consistent with my newer style. It is a pain. A big pain. >_>;; But at least this way I can add pages without worrying too much about character design consistency. Yeep. Now I'm gonna distract myself some more.
keyk: (AAH!!!  MY BRAINZ!!)
I feel so much better when I don't hear people doing things outside of my room...and that's...usually at about, oh, I dunno, 12:00 AM in the morning. So I'm sketching pages, reading stuff, doodling my butt off, writing down ideas--and when I start doing something I feel like doing, boy, can stick to it. That also means I have a terrible sleeping schedule. Something's are still nagging me though.

Oh, boo. Some old .mus files of mine are corrupted and unplayable. I was really just messing around with the program, but some of them had fun parts. My only happy one is a big mess now though. The .bak file is corrupted, too. I wish I knew how to fix files. |DD;; At least a few others have been spared. T_T;;

Oh, man, we were such silly kids back when we had that Finale trial. It was fun messing around with it though, haha.
keyk: (Umm.)
Nothing spectacular--it's a mini art dump with oddly large images! )

Now to tack onto this.
Centrifugal Force character rant. )

Veggie sandwiches are delicious. |DDDb
It's 2:32 AM, and I'm hungry.
I really should be asleep.
keyk: (not happy)
GAAH! You people and your perspective skills. I am failing at this. So. Hard.

Horizon line where? Why does this hallway look like a ramp like this? What is up with my vanishing points. Wait, two vanishing points? One off the page? Practice makes perfect right?

Yes, I am failing at something as simple as a hallway. Whaaat. I seriously have no dimensional sense. I am so not a visual person. I can't translate something I see onto paper well. I'm pretty slow when it comes to improving unless I doodle a load of things for a long period of time. I've only started backgrounds recently, even though my sense of anatomy is still pretty whacky, and it's...pfffft, whhhyyy. It's so bad it's funny. I'm running out of eraser because of this. There are too many bad perspective lines, and erasing them is killing my eraser.

I've read books, I've looked at my sister construct a background, I've tried finding the horizon lines on real life pictures, I've tried to find lines in the world around me, and it's just not clicking for me. I'm going to die in calculus, aren't I. What is it that people see that I don't?

And how the heck do all of these body parts connect together? Acck, anatomy.
And here I said I was going to post comic pages really soon.

Let me get some confidence first. ...Indoor perspective, uuyyy. Why, CF, whyyy. Why did I set you in such a large building. WHY.
keyk: (Baah.)
Pfft, I should so be studying for those SAT II (WHO STUDIES FOR TH--oh, wait, hi.). And searching for driving classes. And searching for some place to get some community service hours done.

But instead, I made a failed vegetarian dinner (currently in the oven to see if it's salvageable or not >_>;;...even though it was supposed to be fried noodles, it turned into something like, err, bread dough...like, major mess up.), doodled my butt off (even though I really don't feel like it), and enjoying making the story for that silly fighting game. There's a lot more suspension of disbelief-y areas in the story than my others (I think), but it's a fighting game, and for a fighting game, I think my story is pretty good. HAHAHA, I sound like some arrogant twit, but only now. When it gets fully developed, I swear I'm going to make a face at the whole thing. >_>;

I have so much to do, a lot I can do, but, as expected, I can't get myself to do anything. :/ It's kind of a bother. I miss being able to force myself to do things.

EDIT: ......
IT WAS SALVAGEABLE. WHAAAAT. It tasted so bad before...DDDD: I still don't like it too much, but it wasn't as bad as I thought, but...
...
Eeeeehhhh.

Although I got answers such as:
It tastes like bread pudding
" " " potatoes.
" " " siopao.
" " " Chinese-American frying batter for meat.
" " " curry.
" " " corn bread.
" " " casserole.

.........................Yeah.
I couldn't think of anything that it tasted like when I tried it, but, whaat. Either my taste buds are jacked up, or everyone else's is.
keyk: (Baah.)
Mm, I need to figure out a way to fix my sleeping schedule. I take too many naps, sleep too long, am always tired--the usual. Caffeine keeps me awake, but I still get sleepy; when I try to sleep, I get a really bad case of insomnia.

Hrm, better sleep now. D|
keyk: (AAH!!!  MY BRAINZ!!)
I was somehow able to take this whole mess of jazz...a lot better than expected. Wow. Usually I end up wanting to bash my head against a wall for weeks, but I'm totally okay, minus those flashback moments I have. Thanks to those who commented and/or read and thanks to the people who talked to me and supported me and stuff (not that you'll read this orz;)! One of these days I'll gather my guts together and do it. *huffs*

It actually helped me get some pages down for Sera's story (onoz, emorz liek whoah), and I'm getting really unhappy with the title for hers...it's so...LAME. I can keep it for the other part though. The part I'm working on...it just seems kinda weird as a title. BAH. Updates for both of these stories will be sporadic. Or faster than my other projects if I manage to get more into it...but right now, writing emotional things is really embarrassing. And my pacing is made of fail. I really should outline this stuff out first!

It looks like I'll be having a very active summer break. I'd better find some place to get some community service hours done, too. I've got a bunch of online commitments to get back to, too, whew.

Still really wiped out. I've put no effort whatsoever into my other finals (and was falling asleep during two of them, oops), but math is tomorrow, and I'm going to try to raise my grade a tad!

I ...really want to play Tales of Innocence and Tales of Rebirth and ToW: Radiant Mythology 2. I LIKE Inomata's designs. I don't really want to play Vesperia... They'd better at least get Tales of Graces here! I wouldn't mind Tales of Hearts (though the name irks me to no end) just because Shing seems dorky and awesome.
keyk: (smile)
Tegami Bachi (aka Letter Bee) is one of the best shounen manga. EVER. It's so darn charming--GAH. And you know I'm a sucker for these episodic-ish stuff. The main character is so CUTE. I love the world and ALL the characters so much. And the art is so pretty and detailed...it's...lovely.

In the meantime I'm going to wallow in the pain that is my headache and my cramps and...that other problem I shouldn't describe or name at the moment (it's the gross one). Ohh, boy. Hope I'll be conscious tomorrow while I review for finals and a test on Friday. DD| And for that!

I SHOULD SLEEP.

NOW.

*smacks self off computer*

I'm considering becoming a vegetarian.
