Shrouded Emotions of the Subconscious Mind

Despite how ridiculous or unrealistic it may have been, sometimes the mere feeling you get from a bad dream sticks with you.

Heaven on Wheels

I went to the local roller rink earlier this week and boy was it a blast!  I've been afraid to go ever since I traumatized myself back in '10 with Mick (of which I still have a scar).

I was surprised to see so many people that still really enjoy skating.  Lots of 40-50 year old men with mad skating skills!  There were also plenty of friendly folks - I was complimented on both my legwarmers and my necklace by two different people.

I plan to go at least twice a month, if not weekly.  I still remember skating up and down my driveway all afternoon when I was a wee girl, and this week has only reminded me of how much fun it is.  It's also re-lit my interest in joining the Roller Derby, which I used to talk about with my friends back in 2005.  Maybe I'll finally make this dream come true (;

Secret Plans

About a year ago I started toying with an idea I had for a comic.  It wasn't until recently I came up with any real plot concepts and since then I've been drawing and sketching ideas like crazy!

Expect more in the future. (:

The Okami series is super underrated.  It's adventurous like The Legend of Zelda with its own twists.  I didn't expect the sequel to top the first game, but ohmygosh it has.  The use of a stylus in Okamiden far exceeds using analogs for brush techniques...

...and instead of playing a dog, you take on the role of a puppy.  A PUPPY.  And instead of having Issun-- the often-irritating bug-equivalent to Navi from OoT-- follow you around, you get the son of Susano(from the first game).  Major upgrade.

Now go find a cheap used copy of either game and play it!

I really don't have a clue how to use these

Pastels are harrrrrd.  So is lighting!  I used at least 4 references for colors here.  And I'm not even sure if I managed to learn anything, except that I don't know what I'm doing. :D

The First of a Season

What would the first real snowstorm of Winter be without hours spent digging my car out of the snow?

Luckily I know a guy like Abs.  He has a tendency to make everyone he talks to feel better.  Mostly because talking to one of the coolest people on the planet will make you feel pretty cool too.  (;

Prove it!

Voca-what?

Keeping in tradition with "Mel draws everything ever for Mick", here is a vocaloid to add to his collection. (:

Crayons still haven't gotten old for me.
