Description EDIT: ...... ;oo;||| please tell me she looks different now?
____________________________

My assignment submission to
House of: Kings, +10
Designed completely by me
____________________________

It's a contest by that group where the theme was to design a uniform, I used the chance for two things;
1- train on fashion designs
2- overcome my phobia of making new OC's

Yes, this is a new oc of mine, Mayu
she's a summoner, using forces she employed to herself to help her accomplish certain tasks or simply defend her, known as Shiki in Japanese

I'm still developing her, though I'm happy with how she came out, her outfit at least, I made a lot of researches over Gothic Lolita style of dressing, I always wanted to try and draw one of these, and it was really fun ^^ though tiring as hell x.x took me exactly 21 hours of work, probably the longest thing I ever worked on

My first character with long hair o-o it feels weird.. but since all of my female OC's have short hair; I thought a change would be good ''83

Fear her black nailbrush babeh! >D
And I had to throw Red somewhere in it xD

I'm doubting between Mayu and Mio, which name you guys think fits her best?
And what do you think of the dress? >oo> it's my first time designing something .oo.''

if you draw her about the same way you did Mayu, I'm sure he'll forgive you =w=

well, she still looks a little like your other work, but that can be considered style.

I've been wanting to draw a KanaYuuki for a while now... but I get scared every time I think of it xD
it's like, either they'd turn out looking good; or looking horrible XwX there's no in-between when it comes to VK characters

would be awesome if someone could switch between styles =n= but I guess that's kinda impossible ;n;~๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

just do so! D= your drawings fail me very rarely, so kaname won't complain either! any Yuuki (without zero around) is a good yuuki!

<=\ I can't think of a good pose for them, though
Yuuki on her own is ok, she has a lot from Miko so thinking of a pose for her is quite easy, but Kaname.... he's too complicated for my small brain e-e'' every time I try to think of a pose for him; he'd be just, standing like that e.e looking at me with his "don't be deceived by my gentle look" thingy eue.... *hides behind you*

for poses, just google random words on google, like 'hug' or 'happy' or so.

EPICNESS on the design Woman *A*~<33 this is just love <3 I've always wanted to draw a gothic lolita dress too!! they just look gorgeous, and you did it beautifully, i love how many details it has *w* I love your style in clothes!! and the red thingies in her hair really make the dress pop somehow, and Awesome choice of background too *w* when i first saw it i fell in love, it suites the character so well!!
and in my opinion, she doesn't really look that much like miko, but that's just me.. I mean ofcourse she has white hair and blue eyes like miko, but her overall expression is just not miko-y at all, I can feel in her expression that she's a totally different person, you could however try to change her appearance a little, i mean you can make her eye a different shade of blue if you love blue eyes so much, i mean it could be a much darker/lighter blue, OR it could be Gray! and you could try to make her skin look very pale, since gothic lolitas usually are? just don't change the hair, it looks gorgeous the way it is <333
but you did a really great job dear I'm proud of you for designing that awesome dress that Drawing Academy sounds like fun xD OH, and I think Mayu Is better than Mio xD

,@u@, you know how to cheer me up, don't you? I knew at least you would see her differently! ,>oo<,
Thank you, Sandy-chan ;oo; it got me really depressed since I worked hard on it yet it still looked like another OC
Grey eyes o-o ..... Epic idea!! *oo* And it suits a summoner! I also thought of making her hair rather blueish instead of grayish, and slightly change her eyes style, the pale skin color is a great idea too! >u<~<333
Though I'm scared to start modifying it x-x|||

Thank you so much for all the compliments over the dress! It's the first time for me to work on a design xD (and trust me; probably the last xD) the Gothic Lolita style is really so cute! >w<
YESH! 8D that club is really awesome! 8D it is like we're in a school divided into inner groups of houses, there's an assignment held every month, and the house with better submissions wins! OuO ... though I dunno if there's a prize or not xD but it's fun =3

I vote for Mayu too! xD buhaha, we think alike *u*~<333

Engexgal255 In reply to Akumaredi [2010-05-01 16:21:32 +0000 UTC]

I'm just telling the truth sweety
btw did you change her eyes? other than the color?? IT looks different somehow!! And the new hair color looks good on her owo~<3 but i think it needs some stronger/darker colors in shading or highlighting to make it pop more, but now it really doesn't look like miko at all 8DD
and girl, you PWNED that dress x'D AND WHEN YOU PWN SOMETHING you shouldn't say it's the last time you'll work on it x'D *slaps* even if you don't pwn something, you should work on it until you do, which you will eventually >w<
yes yes, the Gothic lolita style IS adorable, I want one of those dresses >w< It'd look bad on me though, i don't have the body for it ;w;~
ahh yes I've seen a few groups like that, one of them is AOH I think, but i thought it was kinda hard though x'D another group close to the idea is the pokemon UBF thingie, THAT ONE WAS COOL i wanted to join but i got so lazy >w>~
OH YESH WE DO I've heard Mio before but not Mayu, probably why i like it more 8D

Yuo noticed her eyes as well even though I didn't mention it you're awesome
yeah I did change them ;u; and I'm really happy you noticed
Yes you are right, actually I'm drawing her again OuO I'll make sure I correct her hair shading/coloring this time, in this one I just used that awesome technique you taught me and changed over the colors to test xD it's fun!
*gets slapped* Aye aye, captain! xD *salutes*
homg me too ;w;~
Laziness is made of win, woman! XD *shot*
homg it'd be so cool!! *oo*~<3333 you could request to join the Kings with me when they reopen the joining requests *w*~<3 though I'm gonna be your senpai then >D *shot* they're closed for... the exams xD so that the current members would go a level higher and then new members join as first years.. lol it's fun xD

UmiHoshi [2010-04-30 08:43:39 +0000 UTC]

I can see where your phobia of new OC's come from: variety.... try to be bolder, make someone totally different from the rest. (she looks like Miko, Noel and raiden)
if you look at the gothic girl you drew, she's completely different, right? try to aim for that.
the outfit is very cool, though maybe you should have either made her tail black, white or grey, or you should add more red in her outfit.

Akumaredi In reply to UmiHoshi [2010-04-30 12:43:38 +0000 UTC]

e-e .... seeing it after I woke up; it looks like baby Miko, actually.. working on it for 20 hours straight; I couldn't see the difference.. wish I kept her hair blue instead of white
The Gothic girl was from a time when I was around 9-10 years.. my preferences and likings changed a lot since then
I can't seem to get rid of my white hair/wide eyes fetish
e~x she really does look a lot like baby miko even though the hairstyle is different..
That's it, no more OC's for me, I can't be creative in them anymore.
buh
I had the ribbons red at first, but it looked better in white
Actually, I dunno what's better anymore. lol

UmiHoshi In reply to Akumaredi [2010-04-30 12:55:08 +0000 UTC]

well, darling, if you don't do it, you won't learn either. try to draw an Oc with another side of you. for example, if miko is your happy side, try to draw someone with your in love, angry or sad side =< different feelings give different characters.

;oo; but I'm scared to try and edit her looks, then my whole drama with Akira would be repeated if I don't get a new look and I'd suffer that terrible art-block he gave me..
Though I do want to fix her 'cuz it's a waste for the dress I designed if she doesn't look unique ;~;||| but I dunno..
That sounds like a good idea too.. but I dunno ;~; really, this whole phobia thing makes me feel not creative which makes me feel sad
I'll try to change her hair color and edit her eyes a little.. maybe change her eye color as well..

akira was good in the end, but seda disagreed B| that's why that happened.
if you don't want to risk it failing, why don't you try turning her into Miko? and after that, you can just try a new oc on a new drawing.

I thought about that <=\ but I don't think Miko fits in a Gothic Lolita style..
the hair style is different so if I changed the color it should be ok, I made it rather blueish than grayish, it's just the eyes.. everything I try; turns out familiar ;~;

it's hard to get off a phobia so easily =~= specially that when you do try to; the result is still the same
and it's sad, really, I've been wanting to make a lot of new OC's, specially been wanting to make an Akuma OC, but hell =/.\= when I think of creating males; there's only Meier in my head. And when I think of females; there's only Miko in my head =~= |||
I probably cling too much to those two..

try to check magazines or other characters and collect little bits at the time. like 'that person's hair', 'that person's eyes', 'that person's figure', etc. being absolutely original is practically impossible, but combinations are infinite.
