The Tomie stories are among my favorites of Junji Ito and you did a great work there.

Ah! Thank you so much! x)
Hehe, same here! She's a cool character!

It's cool how there are different stories and all so different from each other, even if Tomie has a pattern.

Not scared, not scared...
You draw great horror stuff! Have you drawn anything from Coraline before? I bet you could pull that off really well!

Muahaha x3
Thank you very much!

No bulli, plz.
Ohhh, the Other Mother! That's exactly who I was thinking of, what with the button eyes and such. :S

Ehehe, sorry! xP
Yeah, I may just have to give drawing her a shot sometime!

That cut deep. But don't beat yourself up about it! XP (Oh no, now I am bulli!!)
That would be great! Mother form or weird monster form?
š: 0 ā©: 1
Hmmm, maybe both! They're both pretty unsettling!
š: 0 ā©: 1
Definitely! The mother form creepiness is a little more subtle, whilst the demon... thing... form is more like 'Good lord, what in the world is that??'
Are there any other characters you've wanted to draw for a while?
š: 0 ā©: 1
Hmmm, I've got a few in mind. I definitely want to draw some of my fighting game mains. Specifically, Tira from Soul Calibur, Dragunov from Tekken, Juri from Street Fighter, Mileena from Mortal Kombat, Hazama from Blazblue, characters like that =3
š: 0 ā©: 1
I only kinda know Juri (and maybe Mileena?) out of all those characters. 
Any Smash Bros. fighters... ?

Hmm, most likely Samus Aran. It's actually kinda nuts that I haven't drawn her yet since the Metroid series is really important to me. A cousin of mine worked at Retro Studios and was a lead/principal technical engineer for all three Metroid Prime games. He also recently worked on the additional engineering for the Shadow of the Colossus PS4 remake =3 His name is Jack Mathews haha. It's super cool having a family member in the industry. It's super cool learning about all the behind the scenes stuff!

*GASP* I flipping love Samus and Metroid!! ... In a platonic way, of course. 
What the heck, does your cousin know he helped create 3 masterpieces?? Plus I've heard how good the SotC remake is??!! He is both very lucky and very talented. 
I guess you have your own real "my dad works at Nintendo" thing, right? XDĀ

Hehe, I'll definitely have to draw her both armored and in the zero suit! Both outfits are so good! x)
Hehe, I still remember playing the prototype of Metroid Prime 1 before it was released with him. Although I was only about 6 or 7 years old at the time so I was too scared to play for long haha. I specifically remember Flaahgra and the Shadow Space Pirates really giving me the spooks haha xD
That's pretty much how it feels xDD He said he wants to introduce me to Keiji Inafune someday as he's worked under him occasionally x3
š: 0 ā©: 1
She does look good in both! Although I think a lot of artists seem to prefer the Zero Suit for... *ahem*... reasons.Ā
You lucky person! Then again, I had no idea Nintendo existed at that time. I was too busy watching Star Wars and playing with Bionicle sets! XDĀ
Don't feel bad for getting scared! Metroid is pretty dang creepy at times. Despite its dated graphics, Fusion makes you feel pretty uneasy at times...
Oh, the Mega Man/Mighty No. 9 guy? That's cool! Sooo, do you know Japanese at all? 
š: 0 ā©: 1
Hehe, yeah I love the isolated atmosphere of the series. It's so dang cool x)
Haha, a little bit. I've been trying to study it in my free time and I plan on taking some classes/courses as well. I also know some Japanese speakers and they'll give me tips and stuff every now and then too! 
š: 0 ā©: 1
Me too, you really feel like you're alone.
Wow, that's brilliant! I'm terrible with languages, I even struggle with English sometimes. DX I have a friend who taught himself Japanese by watching subbed anime for years. It's quite remarkable!
Dang, you're so lucky!! I'd really like to visit Japan one day. I haven't been abroad much before; the only country I've stayed a while in (besides England) is Australia... which is pretty much the furthest flight you can do. XD
What did you like most about Japan?
š: 0 ā©: 1
England's pretty cool! London is especially exciting!
I still can't believe I was able to visit it when I did! It still feels like a dream haha.
Oh man, I honestly loved everything about it. There's so much to do it's insane! People there are lovely as well, not just because of the whole politeness thing but just how friendly and warm so many people were! I'd get lost here and there and random people would just come up to me and ask if they could help with directions! I remember this schoolgirl came up to me while I was in Osaka and helped point me to Nipponbashi Denden Town, it was just so cool!
I also remember going to an Izakaya in Shibuya after visiting the Sailor Moon Exhibition in Roppongi and meeting two college students named Kaori and Chiaki who asked me if I was enjoying Japan. They spoke a little English and I spoke a little Japanese but we were able to keep a relatively fluid and fun conversation going! I then mentioned the Sailor Moon Exhibition and Chiaki suddenly lit up and pulled a Sailor Moon trinket from her bag saying she was just there too! Ahhh! It was so nice! (>-<) It's such a wonderful charming place filled with so many talented, creative, and lovely people an places to visit and appreciate and I miss it so dearly! Can't wait to hopefully return one day <3

Yeah, England has got some great stuff! I actually prefer Brighton over London, but maybe that's because I live near there and visit more often. Hey, if you ever decide to visit Brighton, maybe I'll be around to greet you! 
Sounds a bit like my visit to Australia! Whenever I got in a bit of a muddle, I'd often have locals approaching me offering help.
You must have felt pretty proud to have a nice conversation in 2 different languages! If I tried, I'd probably say all those Japanese words in a very English accent. XDĀ
That's what interests me about Japan: it seems like a highly creative, influential place. Rather eccentric, but then again, we Brits are also pretty eccentric! I hope you go there again soon. ^_^
Hey, shall we move this chat to Notes again? I'm enjoying my chat with you and I wouldn't want to lose track of it! Might be easier with Notes.

If you find that funny you'd probably enjoy my reactions to a visual horror novel I'm currently playing
