I could fit in this criteria, I don't tend to talk to anyone really. Only a select few for a mini-comment and that's it. Then again, it's my choice to remain alone. To gain insight within myself and my mind.

-

So this is a concept of the "shark girl" where I've thought of a name of her finally. After like what, a year of doodling her every now and again. Named her Konani, I believe it's Hawaiian for "bright". I was going to use it as a pun/joke later or something.


Then a mini comic between Selia and Konani, while those two have a step-sibling rivalry I just end it by saying, "Oh and by the way, I was going to kill you two off but I planned to keep you both."
-Yep, I sure do know how to pick my battles.

-

I hear it's your birthday today-ish, wouldn't know what to draw you so I'll just leave it up for you to ask.
-Happy Birthday by the way.

-

I am far from perfection, I just exist.

-

Well then, do you want a medal?
-IN all seriousness, since you're the one that pointed that one out you get an request (may it be a drawing or whatever) from yours truly.
-- Ask away...

Semester Update: This week has been rough for many, I took my finals... in which I didn't do so hot in. While others, have far worse problems than myself... which some ask for my guidance, I try to help as much as I can. Though I can only do so much, I mean sure I shouldn't be worried about them more than my current issues but it does really lower my morale/self-esteem when I see them in pain. I wish I could help them more, I feel like I failed them.

-Now I haven't fallen into despair thankfully... just feeling a bit uncertain with myself. I mean, I don't have much motivation in life compared to others like I don't have a set goal for myself or anything like that. My path is unclear, it feels like it's a one way path to eternity. Maybe I'm just over-thinking about this again, though I can't shake this feeling.

-

I forgot how to do them so, they're no longer easy. I'm also not into chemistry, so it's kind of my weak point. (...Yet I'm good at Mathematics)

-

Not just finished yet...

Once again I doodled this shark girl, don't know why but I always chuckle when I draw her up and the only thing she'll bring up is food... "Fish" specifically.


Even paired up with Selia (Some random character I made up a while go) this time, I pretty much thought of these two as sisters. (Step-sisters mind you)

Ironically, after I showed this to a person I know. He wants to commission me to draw the shark girl more... in depth. It involves the word "Sempai" and a school girl outfit. Anything to make it hilarious, I'm game. (Although I doubt that's not what he is going for)

-That's all of the doodles for now!

-

Meanwhile at my logic class...

Drew rather detailed face and a few eyes on this one. As for that monster at the bottom hold on...


This is a "cute" version of the Zinogre, and I'm at the bushes... just hiding.


Even doodled a Lucario and Lon'qu from Fire Emblem Awakening.


Messed up doodling Blaziken's beak there, but hey you can enjoy Kracko from Kirby... or my reaction to my exam grade when I got it.

-

Final picture, of the convention.
WE REGRET NOTHING!

-

While at Matsuri I found a lot of League of Legend cosplayers, so I caught a few of them:


Ezreal, striking a pose after I said, "STRIKE A POSE!" He was rather confused for a second then made a quick pose.


Blood Moon Akali, was around and about. Always throwing down shrouds of shadows and disappearing.


Ladies and Gentalmen, Welcome to the League of Draven!

I got one more, which does include myself and a friend with rather... very muscular men. For the ultimate manly picture, I'll post that soon.

-

Right, I haven't updated in a while. Meanwhile at Anime Matsuri...

Found this Lugia girl, striking a pose so I took a picture of her. Those wing/arms must be heavy...


Found Vash the Stampede as well.


A Dragon warrior with abundant of tails from severed creatures, there were two of them. This one was just around and about, the other one... well she went to the rave.


Old man assassin, showing us the ropes of how-to-become assassins.

-

Yeah I made one, I swear next thing I'll post will either be a drawing update or attempt drawings (doodles) on my tablet. -_-;

-

Right, time for my true personal thoughts about this. I'm indifferent about flipnote as a whole, I loved how the idea of drawing mini animations on the DSi and sharing it around the regions were great and all... but was rather disgusted with many members of the community. Even when I said things that'll improve on their drawing/animation skills, they thought it was an insult. Eventually, I grew tired of dealing with them and detached myself from making flipnotes. Memories here are mixed, a few good ones here and there. What I did not like about the service was the "popular" flipnote section (Or rather, the so-called "popular creators"...), with incentives to remain the top to get "stars" and free services. It was a blight, many good animators were never noticed, while the ilk of mediocre creators thrived... but I digress.
-As for myself, I also grew less inspired to animate more flipnotes. Even though was told to not stop making them, my own doubt stopped me from creating more. I've learned many things from using this app, met many people, befriended a few, and created enemies (for having a different opinion). Maybe I could have been something great if I didn't, but I'll never know for I remain in the shadows. This new announcement brings some light into all of this, a fresh new start. Many won't like this, but I'm rather fond of becoming reborn from the ashes. So I can't wait for this to be on the 3DS, I'll just send my animations to my friends. May try out the worldwide gallery, but I feel that I'll just have the same experience as before.

-

Yeah, I know you didn't use cap locks, it was an obvious hyperbole. Look, I know many people don't have a 3DS, but you can still use the app (flipnote studio) on the DSi just not the Flipnote Hatena service. And upload it into a .gif file or etc. They're moving on, since the DSi is kind of irrelevant now since the 3DS is out and about.

-

You vote with your wallet, if you don't want it. Don't buy it then, not cause a scene like you're currently doing saying, "I'LL BOYCOTT CAUSE "XYZ" thing!" The only thing it's asking you to do is to pay for the Flipnote World service, the app is going to be free on the 3DS (along with sending those to your friends via FC)... unless you didn't listen on that part. (which is quite common on people on the internet)

-

What a pathetic way of thinking, it's not forcing you to go there. It's just telling you, "Hey, we're making it for the 3DS now. Thanks for using it for (2-4) years, now we're focusing for the newer console." It's kind of how things work, just like with XBL and PSN. But if must boycott, then we won't miss you.

-

Meanwhile on my lunatic file of Fire Emblem...

-

Well for this playthrough I had (Google) Chrom to marry Sumia because the game literally ships them hard. Not sure what it'll be on my next playthrough (for I'll be playing as the Female Avatar by the name of Selia (hah hah, see what I did there)) and might ship those two together or most likely ship her with Gaius because he's awesome.

-As for my current playthough (even though I'm on chapter 17 with 50+ hours in to the game), I pared myself with Panne (Velvet) because her character was pretty cool and she looks nice. (Though I thought about Tharja, so I'll S rank with her in another playthrough) But yeah each character are interesting and I like them all.

-

Another update (which is temporary but not really, but it really is but shut up because I got Fire Emblem): Right, want to draw things now on tablet. Just mini doodles of my play through "Waifu Emblem. Speaking of which I'm just about to get one in the game. Just this game... So good.

-

So I have been drawing for a bit, though some are scrabbles while others are more presentable to show.


So my logic class is quite fun and interesting, though I have an exam on Wednesday that I have yet to study for which I should fix that. Anyway my professor was talking about Dennis Hopper so I drew him up while sketching eyes and a head.


This was once a triangle, now desecrated into Mr.Cheese from Wacky Deli.


I am also very productive in my Leadership class, meaning I am not but I do pay attention. Just telling me things I already knew since it was the first day, so I drew up Raiden from MGSR. That demo was pretty awesome to try out.


This is on the other page of where the starters comic was at. Once a doodle now a somewhat fleshed comic about the 5th Gen pokemon (or the ones I have on my team) saying that they didn't last long enough since 6th gen just got announced. Though my Blaziken is pretty good at small talk like this. (Just not when it comes to fighting strategies) Right hopefully I can draw something else than pokemon after filling two pages filled with them. For I need to improve on other things than drawing pokemon.

Right that's all for now, I'm still reluctant to draw on my tablet but eh... I'll work on that soon.

-

How does it feel to know that everything you'll do will only be second to none compared to someone who is extremely better than you?
-Can you live with your self knowing that you'll never be amazing, talented, outgoing, known?
-What is the purpose of your struggle if you know time will eventually take you out of life?
-You get back up even though you know it's pointless, why do you persist?

-

Insomnia Update: I found my drawing muse for the moment. If someone is wondering how I got inspiration to get myself to draw something, I'd be music. (Mainly from games e.g. MGS4, Persona 4, KH2 Final Mix+, FE: Awakening, and one that isn't from a game but a group called "A Perfect Circle")

-Also I had a little revelation with myself. The mind is a strange and dangerous beast, both my enemy and my ally. Yes, yes once again I dwell into my thoughts that are normally filled with turmoil and anguish. Well then I just simply said, "Well if I don't do anything at all, then of course I won't improve." Of course it's easily said than done, and my mind is easily filled with headaches and impure impulses, but I have to fight on. I may not have as much support from many people both IRL and on the internet but that hasn't stopped me before. One way or another, these dark and negative thoughts will soon become my strength rather than my weakness.
[I also like to mention that my headaches have returned once more]

-

Normally I'd post this in my about page, but it's quite relevant to this keyword. Drawing all of them were pretty fun, though my sketchbook has horrid paper so it's difficult to erase errors as it smudges easily. (it's stupid, thought about replacing it soon)
-So I'll be choosing fire this time around, last time I chose water. Good choice in my part, now back to fire...(I haven't chosen fire since, 3rd Gen for obvious reasons) I better not regret it.

-

It's safe to say that I'm not attracted to anyone on the internet. (I just won't do online/long-distance relationships) Other people on the other hand, have/had a crush on me. (which is still surprising to me)

-

Ever since my break started, I've been doing some heavy thinking once again. Yes it's a bad habit, but what can one do when stuck at home becoming less productive day-by-day. I keep day dreaming about myself fighting in a battle against everyone else and eventually falling due to fatigue. Maybe it's my inner turmoil rising against me once more. I feel something, an emptiness within myself. Even now, I question my abilities and "talents" wondering if they're worth it to continue. What do others think of me and my actions?
- I've been called a narcissist, due to the fact that I could be elitist at times(often in video games when I catch myself) when I point out flaws of others and correct them, but I'm only do so I can help them out. Not just that but I also point out my flaws as well and ask for their suggestions. Is that wrong? I often wonder if I should just not say anything at all, and just disappear like I always wanted to, in the Cimmerian shade.

I'm not sure anymore, and maybe I'm just beating myself up over nothing, but I can't keep these thoughts locked inside of me all of time. For I'll eventually fall into decline if I keep them bottled up.

-

Find a way to channel my negative energy/thoughts into something productive.

-

So here's the first request asked by id:lunarFrost , it is Kuja in the flesh.


Also this is one of the main reasons why I haven't been drawing these requests, that and League of Legends, and Tekken Tag 2 Tournament. Been playing the WiiU and drawing things after I complete certain aspects of the game, showing others my prowess in drawing. It sure does get me to draw things that isn't Pokemon, that's for sure. Needs more Legend of Zelda and Metroid as those two are one of my favorite Nintendo games. Maybe some F-Zero as well.

-Just keep reminding me to draw those requests so I don't forget or get too distracted.
--I'm out for now.

-

X-mas update: So I've got a couple of things, things that haven't arrived yet due to snail mail packaging and what-not. My folks got us the deluxe WiiU, though I'm rather glad I got Tekken Tag 2 Tourney for the 360.(which was the only thing I just wanted due to lack of funds) Anyway back to the WiiU, it's quite fun and I can't stop playing it. I really enjoy Miiverse mainly because I can draw things and people can see it. Speaking of drawing, I am indeed working on those requests. (very slowly, I need to be reminded due to myself being distracted easily) Kuja is practically finished as I just need to draw his lower body. (no pun intended) I'll post it up and start quick sketching instead of being a lazy-bub drawing it piece by piece and rarely getting things done.

-Also if you have a WiiU and want to find me, just search for the obvious and you'll find me.

-

The only page I've doodled recently, there is a few other pages of course but eh I want to show this one.

Doodled this on and off in class, and at home. Sketched up a Weavile a few times since it's the pokemon I'm going to have as my icon for pokemon picture month (that is currently going on right now), so eventually I'll get myself to color it on SAI with a cool pose or something. Also doodled my Argonian from Skyrim, "Siffle" I'll draw a full body sketch eventually as well, and maybe a few comics as they've been stuck in my head for a while now. Then there are two heads that are just there.

-

I should be working on my take home final exam and my final projects but I'll do them soon. I actually got to draw a few things for the moment, so I'll post what I currently have:

Drew all this up in my IT class, nothing really special here though someone really likes how I drew up the Zoroark.


Another one that was drawn in my IT class, along with some notes. Attempted to draw armor from Dead Space, it's extremely detailed and somewhat difficult to figure out and draw. Though I want to draw more of it, because it's something I want to improve on in the future. Along with drawing mechs, cars, machines in general, armor, people (realistically), and etc.


Okay so we got the Deity Arceus (Goat God of Pokemon), an eye, some head, and Pit from Kid Icarus. Should draw more Pit and Arceus, maybe a comic or something in the future when I'M NOT LAZY. (I'll assume a certain someone will especially love a Kid Icarus comic from myself)


Finally, full body sketch of a Blaziken and Lucario. (Wait a full body sketch, what is this sorcery?!) Story behind this one, is interesting. At first it was going to be a comic between these two (Two, meaning the pokemon in my team "Sasha" and "Slyrenth") but of course, got lazy. It would've been about how Sasha was forced to be the team leader, not really thrilled with all the pressure of being leader and Slyrenth is trying to give her advice.(and most likely fail, just like when I give advice to a girl... and then I awkwardly become silent) Rather interesting that someone I know thought it'll be adorable for me to draw something like that, when I mentioned the idea. (I dunno' about that, but I digress)

So that's what I got for now. Now if you excuse me, I need to get myself actually working on these things... though I lack motivation to start them.

-

So I went to visit my friends at the community college I used to go to, and apparently I'm the only one out of the group that hasn't watched MLP:FIM fully.

-

One of my favorite bands, Hybrid.

-

Totally drew this in my math class, and was chuckling while drawing this. Should draw more things like this in the future, just for giggles.


Was drawing this while playing pkmn Black 2, memory link is a pretty awesome feature in the game. Though it makes you wonder what ever happened to the other player character. Was going to draw Ghetsis, Colress, and maybe the rival but got lazy, and never felt like finishing it so I'll post what I have. N, the current trainer character, and my trainer-self.

-

A 3+ old picture made out of MS paint and a mouse.

-

You know after looking back here, there is a lot of people who post here that I just plain detest. Mainly due to their actions, "purposely" bad spelling errors, shipping other users, and whose know what other "joke" they made in this site. I personally don't find them funny at all.

-

Okay so I've been talking about me doodling within my classes, well I'm guilty of it. Since I'm able to do it easily rather than actually forcing myself to draw in my sketchbook, I've drawn a few impressive things within my Biology notes:

At first it was just a doodle of myself in Brian O'Malley's style used in Scott Pilgrim for fun. Then I doodled Batman which amazed people quite quickly. (Was amazed myself on how I even pulled that one off)


A feared beast in the Monster Hunter world, known as the Jinouga (or now finally renamed as the Zinogre). This Wolf Behemoth is still a force to be reckoned with... even on paper. (and soon cute chibi form)


Normally I wouldn't have this head all alone by itself... but it just looks so well done I had to show it. Something (IMO) I actually done right with the human head. Progress made, especially in the eyes as I have difficult drawing them properly at times. After doodling that and having people being impressed by that, I'm motivated to draw more because of it.

That's just all I wanted to show for the moment, may attempt to draw on my tablet soon or show some sketches(?) soon.

-

I would say life is not that bad, been better though. Been keeping up with my classes so I haven't really been up around here and etc. Along with playing pkmn black 2 and LoL (league of legends), and drawing up a few things within my sketchbook (and or in my notebook), I've haven't been doing much. Also half of the time I speak to you, your only response is "okay" so I wouldn't call that a "civilized conversation."

-Thought about drawing with my tablet here on the weekends soon, but whenever I feel up to it of course.

-

I've bombed on my last 3 exams, I'm not sure what to do with myself besides give up and disappear.

-

Did I forgot to mention that I kickass in pinball as well? Well I'm pretty good at pinball to get the fourth high score in it. There is no way I'm getting the Grand Champion which is 96 million points. That and I love getting free games when you get your score high enough. (Free games = more time to kill + fun) This is also Family Guy Pinball.

-

Another Insomnia update:
Been drawing more, mainly doodling within my classes but still drawing. Been busy with college work, and exams. Also went on a date last sat, it was interesting. (More like M. Knight Shamalan was the writer of that day, since it had many plot twists) In short, I'm still single but I'll live with it. (Had a Paragon moment though, so I guess I felt good for being the good guy)

-Pokemon Black/White 2 are going to release next Sunday, I should attempt to draw on my tablet and draw a few things here and there. (If I have time) I do have work due on Wednesday at midnight and also have an math exam this Friday. So I'm still quite busy, if I only I had more time to draw, practice anatomy, and improve. I've noticed that I don't draw many poses with people, that will change soon. Sadly I don't have any classes that revolve to those things so those will have to wait for now.

-Lastly, my brother and his friends at the campus are egregious to deal with. Sure I may be up-tight when I see them, but only because they're blunt about their dirty jokes and not cleverly subtle. My brother also described my "aura" as this, "At first I noticed you had a dark aura, but after a while it wasn't entirely dark but it does tell others that you just want to be left alone." It's not my fault that my aura is blackened, it's that it takes a while for me to accept people, let alone get to know them after a bad first impression. I just have a dark approach of judging people at times. (I like to call it the Guantanamo Bay approach of things, meaning the thing/person is worthless until I see they have a redeeming quality, also answers why I lurk on the internet)

That's what I'm currently have in my thoughts for the moment.

-

Just doodled a few pokemon trainer outfits for myself for fun. Got the Pokemon Breeder, Bug/Dark Ninja outfit, and Lucario-Knight Prototype armor.


Since I used these two a lot in battles (and heard many things one of these two being "Shipped" while in battle, an opponent said something about them being a couple or something, go figure), so I drew them up wondering why they're not in many comics that involve pokemon that I come up with. Well that's simple, I'm a lazy arse.
[Side note: Both have nicknames which are Slyrenth (Lucario) and Sasha (Blaziken)]


So after watching some videos for Halo 4 and listening to some music from it's remixed OST, I doodled up my spartan from Halo Reach. (I need to stop drawing myself within these video game doodles, but I digress)

There are more drawings, but they'll most likely not be shown and/or just not finished to show off yet.

-

I'm sorry, I can't sleep this week. I don't know why but I just can't fall asleep. I can't seem to relax myself due to stress of these classes, or trying to draw more randomly. I'm losing this battle against myself so far.

-

...Been up the entire day, someone spare me the trouble on how I didn't outburst in class in pure anger of being sleep deprived along with a migraine that felt like something was squeezing my entire left cerebral hemisphere. Also plagued by troubled and lust thoughts, I can't escape it. Yeah I had better days... But hey, at least I drew something in my math class. *falls into bed*

-

Insomnia update:
Due to the fact that I can't bloody sleep for the past few days (due to endless energy, troubled thoughts, extreme mind-boggling dreams, and worries) I can't help but to think of ideas to draw in the future. Will post a few things here and there soon. Also I'd like to add a few tidbits about myself and a few ideas I had.
-Tidbits:
-Though my personality is quite ambiguous I tend to treat those on how I currently feel at times.
-Many say I have an insane psychopathic laugh. (others just say I'm just plain insane)
-I'm very forgetful at times when it comes to ideas and things to draw.
-Despite being filled with anger and sorrow I tend to direct it to humor. (It's quite effective though the emotions still remain)

Idea Tidbits:
-Those who are familiar with the character Selia is actually a bastard child of a insane monarch. (and was found/raised by beast-like men and her step-sister is a bipedal shark creature)
-Selia's step sister (who I have no name of yet because lazy), is rather... a very arrogant huntress. Extremely hotheaded, her ego would be as big as the tallest building in Dubai.
-The beast-like men range from human with few feral features of the creatures within the world to almost looking like a savage beast. (though they're no different than the regular men in the world)
-Traft(revamped completely from his old alias) was once a revered solder but then left the monarchs army after finding out that they've been ransacking innocent villages and kingdoms. (and is a mercenary/assassin for hire, also has a phoenix that he saved years before his days as a solder)
-At some point there was an idea that Selia once had a boyfriend that was a part of the beast-men named Solice. (around her pre-teen/teen years) He saved her from a behemoth attack, he's quite the warrior.

-Most of them have been drawn at least once.
-Selia was also created out of a joke about warming a person by being in the same bed with the said person. (being almost completely naked)

That's all I got, I have many more rushing thoughts at the moment but I need to get myself asleep. Insomnia is a pain to deal with at times.

-

I'll name a few I've done:
-Get a headshot with a pistol in GoW (gears of war)
-Deceiving players on Halo Reach with the hologram armor ability. (then assassinating them)
-Pulling off a 18+ hit combo in Mortal Kombat making the other player Rage Quit.
-Winning a tournament. (an actual one with money as a reward)
-And now two videos, that doesn't involve me(you'll love them):

-

You can't even beat a game in the hardest difficulty.

-

This is Rothainian's drawing, he's complete detail and shading. He drew himself as a survivor as a zombie outbreak. I believe this was drawn last year.

-

After getting back home we saw this guy on the wall just walking around. It was pretty cool watching it jump from from wall to plant and back.

-

"I feel pretty, oh so pretty..."

-

Thanks! I'm just rather hard on myself when I draw something, I expect something extraordinary when I draw something. Though I tend to compare my work to professionals and strive to improve. It's something I need to stop doing, it's good to improve as long as I'm not destroying myself in the process of it. I need to have fun with my art, rather than being extremely serious about it.

-

It's as finished as it'll ever get, I felt like giving up half way because it didn't exceed my expectation. That and I missed up numerous of times on the rib cage, and shading. This abomination still lingers in my dreams and thoughts, it is the inner turmoil that plagues my mind.

-

Many people tend to believe only the strong will survive as what Darwin intended. Sure it maybe survival at the fittest at times, but even then the strong must help the weak, and though I was weak when I was young... my life experience made me stronger, and as time flew by I watched others rise and fall from the ashes. Once proud cousins and rivals now in crumbling problems because they hit a brick wall and there is no where to go anymore. I observed what they did, and I adapted. I became stronger over time, from my weak self in the past to my current self, as tough as metal yet still fragile in the inside. We're all not perfect, while others strive for perfection, it's only a folly to strive for it. I strive to become more human, and understand others.

[temporary saving quote/speech-thingy]

-

"No regrets nor tears...Let the whole world forget about us...May our very existence disappear from their memories...But Time...No matter what, Time will remember us....And when we return, and their complete knowledge of us is gone...Time will remember them nearly the way Time remembered us, except they won't return."
-Unknown

-

Found this little frog on the backyard table a few days ago, I was quite puzzled on how it got there.

-

Heh, that seems the case here since most people say I have a ambiguous personality. (not sure what entirely means, but I guess they're unclear of what I am thinking)

-Also enjoy my thoughts/drawings, I usually post them here to regain composure.

Showing 4 snails singing some sort of song, which each have their own different verse. The animation syncs with the sound, making it flow better than most flipnotes. The snails are drawn/animated in a rather simplistic style that isn't egregious or annoying to watch. It's short and to the point, and is nicely done.

Score: 3.5 / 5
(I rate and view works of animation quite tough (even tougher on myself) so don't expect it to be a perfect 5 or 4.5)

-

First started as practice, then started to doodle in Batman and Selia. Thought about drawing a whole page of what kind of outfits that'll work with Selia. Batman was drawn... well because I've been playing both Arkham Asylum and City, he's one of my favorite superheroes, and he's batman. Also thought about developing Selia in a comic or something. [Fun fact: She was created out of a silly innuendo and was also planned to be killed off quiet drastically]


This is the allege comic I was talking about before. A dark encounter with Ghetsis, does a cheap shot and hits my trainer-self with a Dragon Pulse. (Most likely burning off some skin and could fatally wound my ribs and other organs but I digress) [* Spoilers* I don't bleed out or die in this comic, lol] Wasn't sure what kind of emotion I should have gave my Volcarona "Nyala", but eh I'm pretty sure it goes to the line of Shocked or worried.

More to come in the future, may actually dust off my tablet and draw a few things here or there. Maybe color something too... I need a new technique for coloring though.

-

The Dry lands! (located between California and Louisiana)

A peculiar lizard who always appears when I feed it. Not really active till nightfall, something we have in common I suppose.


This kitty is rather fond of me and my electronics. Slept in my room(guest bedroom) most of the time, afraid of the rest of the family I assume. (I don't blame the cat) [Yes the video is sideways, fotofile is strange like that]


Also fed goats, and these little ones. Rather really friendly towards people compared to the others, then again... we feed them so they come running to us whenever the chance they get for more food. (Freeloaders)

-
