Do you still take commissions at all? I saw in your journal that you used to take commissions and custom cosplay item commissions, and I've I was wondering.
I've got this catgirl character with patterns in the fur on her feet, and whenever I commission pics of her and describe her sandals to the artist, they always get them wrong because of miscommunication between us. I thought if maybe I could get a pair of sandals made to look exactly like I envisaged them, the next time I commission a picture of her I could just send the artist a photo saying "and these are her sandals, draw them like this". xD

Sorry, no. You're welcome to color any lineart I've put up with credit, but I don't have the time to do requests.

Hey! Just thought I would let you know I cut out the pattern pieces to start your Sailor Haumea plush.

Just to let you know, I don't think I can do the sweet print she's got going on. I don't know how to print felt, and I couldn't find a material that colour like that.

I just wanted to send a quick thank you.
I took your remarks on my OSI entry and I'm working on fixing her "bugs". It's just so nice to see constructive criticism and thought you need to know how much I appreciate it.

I'm gonna say this now, since tomorrow will probably not be a day for me on the internets, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Thanks! Good thing too, because I'm going up to SF and probably not going to see it tomorrow.

Congratulations Enkai! Sailor Haumea and you both definitely deserved it! Ho'omaika'i 'ana.

Looks like those late nights and ranty days were worth it (hopefully). Sick of Haumea yet? XD
You deserved first place. Very much so. Your mixed media approach is gonna be hard to top next competition.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks! Ahaha, I don't think I'll ever be sick of Haumea, she's my baby. I do get bored easily though, so I'm glad that I can focus on other things now. Part of the reason for the mixed media approach is because it's hard enough for me to draw the same thing repeatedly (I've come to the conclusion that I could NOT do a webcomic), at least this way I get to vary it up a lot.

At least you can sleep now. 8D (unless your required work is about to torment you)
Totally hear you on drawing something over and over. But your short attention span made things entertaining. 
I do have to say (probably again; a broken record I am) that I really enjoyed Haumea since the entries were not only nice to look at, but also informative like whoa. It was good to read something that broke Hawaiian stereotypes, with no grass skirts in sight!
*heaps more praise on you* I'm gonna stop before this gets awkward and embarrassing for both of us. 8D But good show! Is your next project going to be completely unrelated to otaku senshi?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. Cosplay. I do need to finish that prize art that's been sitting around forever, so Otaku Senshi there, but all my own art ideas are straight fanart. I have a few really cool drawing ideas for other fandoms (Dark Knight and Sengoku Basara specifically, although there might be some Madoka art now that I've watched that) that'd I'd like to do, so art's probably gonna be unrelated to otaku senshi for a while.

Aloha! I absolutely LOVE all the attention to detail that went into your Haumea project

Mahalo! Always nice when somebody else who's from Hawaii appreciates it. ^.^ And thank you for the watch! Where in Hawaii are you from, out of curiosity; I lived on Oahu for 8 years before college. My family's still there, so it's still "home"...which probably explains a lot of the motivation for creating Haumea in the first place

I'm originally from California, but Oahu's North Shore is now my home. I'm very fortunate to have a Hawaiian surf coach, and to learn history and culture along with my training.
