Description I don't know what to upload, anymore! But I need to keep myself alive on here, so it's just to say that I'm still here until I can find some more complete stuff to upload. I have some sketch commissions I could pile together and submit with permission if anybody is interested.

Truth is, I'm busy, tired, upset, lost, demotivated and fed up apart from the happy spells that people give me. It's a matter of complications regarding my attitude towards who I am, and selling myself short so I can just get things done and over with.

Blabbering aside, I decided to just to a 'study' for the sake of it. I need to keep sketching and practicing a variety of things.
This is just a quick lighting thing--it's not marvellous, but it was fun, and it all counts towards something.
The people are Clive and Luke from the Professor Layton series. This wasn't intended to be fanart, but putting them in just made it a little more fun for me.
I gave Clive glasses for the lulz. No other reason. Fangirls, stay away from my throat.

My dearest told me that Luke looked fed up in this picture, as if he wanted the Professor helping him study rather than Clive.
My take on the image was both of them doing work of some sort, with Clive helping a puzzled and frustrated Luke at the same time.
What do you think's happening?
You don't have to answer!

In unrelated news, happy birthday to my brother! <3
He's off for the band's music video to be recorded. Don't they grow up so fast.

I think luke just doesnt want to study. XD
I love the feel of the picture, the lighting makes me think of a gloomy day and being stuck inside.
and I LOVE the glasses, they make Clive seem so... mature.
Overall, its amazing, exelent job!

Hmmm! A gloomy day! I guess since I didn't paint anything in the window, it kind of looks gloomy-ish, maybe foggy. I never thought about that. XD
I'm glad that you do like the glasses! He's even more of a hipster, now!

Thank you so much! ;w; <3

I saw this in my inbox and went: "wooow" The thumbnail looked so awesome, and this is just goregous!
I love the atmosphere. I'm getting the impression Luke is fed up with studying, or he really doesn't want to be figuring out that puzzle, haha something along the lines of "I don't want to be here right now."

Great work.
I hope you're doing ok, I got the impression you're going through an identity crisis of some sort?
We're here for you~ <3

Aww, thank you so much~
I had fun with this, and maybe there'll be another of its kind along the way soon--if I didn't have a lot to do tonight, I'd do another one right now.

Haha, thanks for your take on the image! I do get the "I don't want to be here right now" kind of vibe from him, looking back at it. He looks kinda tired.

Ah, to be honest, I've been reluctant to call it an 'identity crisis', but I'm having a lot of issues that make it feel like one. Maybe it is, I dunno. I've had it for a while, but it's really caught up with me, lately...
Thank you so much. ;n; I'm always here for you and everybody else, too.

You are so amazing at lighting ffff
PLEASE
TEACH ME
I need to learn this stuff. ;U;

Gosh i really want to play professor layton but i just KNOW i would get pissed at it. Because sometimes i am just not good at puzzles.

AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT, i wish him good luck with his band stuff!

but goodness
i just love your art. The sketchiness of it really makes it yours, and especially the fact that you aren't afraid to mess with colors and set everything up in a different, unique, yet beautiful lighting.
Keep up the amazing work.

PFFF no I'm just scribbling everywhere and throwing in tones idk
Unlike me (the lazy bum I am), you can look at a few references and then make up your own or something~!

GIRL
YOU SHOULD PLAY IT ANYWAY
IT'S OKAY THERE'S HINT COINS AND WE ALL GET THOSE PUZZLES WHERE WE GO "FNCK THIS" AND THEN GOOGLE THE ANSWER
And it's just ugnjgn <3

But thank you so much... I'm glad the sketchiness is a nice quality for people to look at (it seems). I really wanna do another one of these, soon.

And Matt says danke! <3

Haha, regarding Luke's expression and pose it makes me think he's been daydreaming off somewhere else and would rather not be studying. Then he remembers Clive is there and has to get back to work "aw mannn"
BUT THAT'S JUST WHAT I WOULD DO IN THIS SITUATION XD Especially with a lovely tempting window to stare out right there to tease me. But Luke probably likes study more than I do?
Or he's paying hard attention to what Clive is saying. It's very open actually XD

I really love your rough, scribbly style. I don't say that enough times as I would like to.
Bit really.
Even though there are rough objects around for a background, I find the less amount of refinement and detail makes me focus more on the characters. Especially with the light making them 'pop out.'
~Glasses And I really like the wrinkles in his sleeve there for some reason |D'

If nothing else I hope this gives you a little bit of a happy spell. Stay positive don't dwell on the bad things is about all I can say. Hope you're ok <3

Haha, "aw mannn"
That all works! Your take on it made me giggle. I can definately put your words to the picture. <3

;n; I'm really thankful for people saying that they like the sketchy-ness. I used to hate my sketchy-ness and try to eventually aspire to stuff maybe even as clean as *doubleleaf 's work, but... along the way, I realise more and more that the sketchy-ness gives it life, I suppose. And whenever I try to do something clean, I usually spend too long on it and it becomes a bit lifeless... but that's me.
I'm really glad I got a good composition in this one~ Thank you so much for picking up on it!

And thank you so much, again. I'm smiling wide right now, and it'll keep me going~

Sexy secretary glasses!? *goes for the jugular*
I kid, I kid~

But yes- I still do think he looks like he'd prefer the Professor there to aid him in studying !
It looks wonderful, and the shading? Magnifique~
