Well then! I don't post enough to have a journal that's really about anything, so you can just assume I sit around all day writing and arting and watching stuff, but rarely finishing anything. Despite my attempts to change and not quit any given piece, I'm still a terrible slacker and my own worst enemy. I don't like to post stuff on DA that isn't finished or of decent quality, and since I rarely finish things, that means I also rarely post. Vicious cycle. I post some unfinished stuff on my tumblr, which is more than will end up here, so go have a look-see. Tumblr - Meow Meow

I finally posted some new work! Somebody who got a DD on here some time ago had a whole slew of regular entries for the Character of the Week contest on conceptart.org. I was pretty envious, because they were good pictures, and because that was always one of those websites that made me feel inadequate as an artist, especially one who went to school and has a degree and is not doing art professionally. Eventually, I was bored and decided to see what all of that fuss was about. It was a Monday, and the new contests post on Sundays each week or so, and I had plenty of time. It was really challenging, and I still have to be careful not to strai

Well, I submitted something. It's the first thing I've managed to color in a while. I am never short on ideas, but many sit at the 'lame sketch' stage for months or years, until they're so bad that I just have to start over. Sometimes I stop at the lineart, since I can't ever decide these days whether I can live without lines or not, and then I get mad at my lines for being bad. A few make it to huge swathes of background color and a huge file size, waiting for the effort I fail to put in. I often just move on. If I make something, it's better than nothing, right? So, everyday, new file, more sketches. I made one earlier today that I like. T

Your art is so detailed and beautiful dear god *0*
D'aww, thanks :blush: That is such a compliment, it makes me want to drop everything and do more art right now :love:
Have you done your round 2 for ubf yet? Your character is SOOOO pretty I would love to see more of her and her pokemon, provided she passed into r2. (Which would be a crime if she didn't sooo uh yeah)
Haha, I was killing myself to do it, and then I gave up with two days left :( The main tournament is not for me. It'd be cool to do well or win, but I am happy doing the mini-contests, where I can dedicate a lot of time to a smaller picture and be more happy with the result. So you'll see more of her! But not in the main event, alas. The extension is cool, but I only see myself suffering more in future rounds if I stayed in it, and still being unhappy with what I was able to produce.
