Description Ayup. Sorry for my rambling, but if it helps even one or two people it was worth writing.

Also, using my old crappy art for an example of what not to do is fun.

"Disclaimer: I'm obviously not the best artist in the world..."

Your disclaimer LIES. A great and quite useful tutorial.

Seriously. You calling stuff like THAT bad makes me want to burn my sketchbook. .__ .

And I'm fairly sure I've already used that expression before.

Damn it, I'm repeating myself now.

Dx Noooo it's horrible. And you should just keep trying. Hopefully you'll never have to color anything as badly as I used to, haha.

Aww, thank you.

So Many Dynamos? I think I must have unintentionally included that reference or something, haha. xD; What did I say?

"This is why I can't have nice things"
Haha, it could be multiple references.
There's a song titled something along those lines.
:C Not a terribly well-known band, though.
C: And you're welcome ~

Hey hey hey, what do you want for christmas, I always see origami paper and think of you!

Iyou In reply to Morgan-Darkheart [2008-11-18 21:46:01 +0000 UTC]

Oh crap, I don't know. Not origami paper, because I have tons of that stuff. xD

Ummm... You got me hooked on Skip Beat, lol. I have volumes 1 through 4 but haven't been able to find 5 anywhere, so maybe the next one in the series? I dunno.

Now, if I were to do a certain piece of art for you, of whom would you like the piece of art to be of? (Your current favorite bishounen, yourself, etc...)

Morgan-Darkheart In reply to Iyou [2008-11-20 03:53:12 +0000 UTC]

ummm.... ok, I get you let, we have skip beat at B&N here.

You don't have to do that, I thought I'd just take that outfit for my doll??? But I like art too.... XD I'm a brat!

I would actually want to talk to you about a wedding image of mike and I, maybe to use on invites. Don't freak, you have to see my wedding dress, it's pretty. Maybe me in that! Xd I'll upload pics.

Iyou In reply to Morgan-Darkheart [2008-11-20 05:27:13 +0000 UTC]

xD Haha, just count the outfit as a random gift. Or maybe count it as a Christmas gift and then the art as a birthday gift, because I probably won't be able to get it done by Christmas, lol.

A wedding image? Aw jeez, I'd feel really bad if I screwed it up... I'll do it if you really want me to, though...

Morgan-Darkheart In reply to Iyou [2008-11-20 22:11:57 +0000 UTC]

No, don't worry, you won't screw it up. When you're up here I can show you some pictures and ideas I have... come on, I love you, you're too good to mess things up! XD Tell painey I say hi and *rape hump porno*

Iyou In reply to supersysscvi [2008-11-15 03:27:39 +0000 UTC]

Aww, I'm glad you like it. It took me a while to discover bounce light, lol. I'm still not that great at it, but I felt like it should be included anyway.
