Summer Update

Fri Jul 3, 2009, 3:32 PM
  • Mood: Optimism
Random edit: Hey, somebody who does AMV's--Moyashimon AMV to Weird Al's "Germs." (I'd do it myself, but the last thing I need is ANOTHER new hobby)

..........................................

Figure I should change my journal from something school related.

School's out, and I'm not doing summer school this year. My husband's up in Salinas for an internship, so I of course came with him. I'm trying to find a job (WHY must the economy suck), but I've got other things to occupy myself in the meantime. I couldn't bring all my hobbies with me, so the cosplay tools and materials ended up getting left behind in favor of my more portable art supplies. I didn't bring all my markers, just a few, but I did bring my pencils, rapidograph pens, and my (husband's >.> ) tablet.

So expect more artwork and actually updating from me over the summer! You've probably seen my most recent addition which I'm really proud of; I haven't done an intense (anime) CG in FOREVER. Just a few graphics (t-shirt and school stuff) and an architectural rendering. It's kinda sad though how much it screams me (elements: Sailor Moon meets Gankutsuou styling with architectural renderings and uber-shoujo-sparkleyness). *cough* Well, at least the Minna folks who watch me would understand that it's probably something only I'd come up with. ^^;

On that note, my entry got 5th in the contest. No prizes, but I'm glad that people actually see my page again. Although it does bug me that it only proves that people only watch me for my Sailor Moon art. >> But hey--I'm less than 20 favorites away from replacing that edit that's currently my most favorited! (It also bugs me that my most favorited items are primarily edits. >.> )

But anyway.

......................................................

Anyway, projects I'm working on and potential projects

So much for the superhero thing; I'm idea-ed out at the moment.

Another project I'm toying with working on, although I need to talk to my pastor and see if he still wants me to do it. I'm Seventh-day Adventist, and we tend to take a lot of the Revelation stuff a lot more seriously than most Christian denominations. There's a lot of art of some of the things described, but it's all pretty cheesy. My pastor has been talking of commissioning me to draw some of the beasts and angels, but doing so in an anime style, kinda as a way of updating it and as a way of reaching out more to today's culture. It'd be a challenge, and I'd have to work on more of an edgy-shounen look than my usual OMGSPARKLE!Shoujo, but I'm certainly considering it. Especially if I don't find a job.

I'd like to do some reference sheets for some of my various OC's.

RIGHT! I almost forgot this one: A banner design for a new club banner (yeah, not like you didn't want to see MORE Minna art from me :-P ) And not like I need to be working with file sizes even LARGER, now I get to work on something where the final size is 3 feet by 6 feet.

Commissions? (prices -> [link] , can't do painting/marker ones because no supplies) *sparkle eyes* Please? Broke unemployed college student? Who wants money to do a Pururin costume for Halloween? *watches all the Minna folks leave* T.T

Wow good luck with all of that. I'm feeling less and less inclined to draw these days and when I do, I can't think of anything to draw. :< Makes me kind of jealous that you have so much drawing to do!

Also, thinking of doing a birthday party in a month. If you guys would like to come and are able to, you're more than welcome to stay at my house (its big, so there is space for plenty of guests). It would be on a weekend of course. :D

Problem is that my inspiration is kinda hit or miss; I just couldn't really come up with anything for that superhero RPG. >.<

Regarding your birthday--if it's on a weekend, we very well may able to. ^^ Give us more info as you plan it, and we'll see. Probably won't need to stay at your place (you're talking about SLO, right?) We're actually double-renting with our place during the school year.
:iconcoppeliad:
Yeah my inspiration has been utter miss lately.

But actually, I was thinking LA/OC for my birthday party. I'm living in LA with Tamar for my internship.

Double-renting? Sounds expensive... :<

How much would you consider fair, in addition to materials and shipping, for a custom-fit garment on similar scale to [link] (~20 hrs work)

Maybe I should get a Twitter for stuff like this, but anyway--this episode of Stargate I'm watching should have just been titled "SG-1 goes to HELL"
