yeah, but it's not particularly well done; i hate university so i'm kind of lazy about it.

things i have to do by the end of the month:

- finish reading nietszche, "On the geneaology of morality"
- write a 1500-2000 word essay on said book
- apply to two art schools (and fail miserably)
- finish putting together a portfolio for review for said schools
- get university transcripts from UBC
- finish cropping images for PV's new layout
- finish this other weird digital project i'm working on
- finish 3 drawings for drawing class :O + one page of lines (hard to explain)
- finish coding a key/value library for computer science
- ... attend class?
- start on a pastel drawing i've wanted to do for like a month
- somewhere in here, teach myself how to use my tablet
- vist a friend in the hospital

PROSPECTS ARE LOOKING DIM, CANDY.

I--i

i ... ;o;

yes.

mm, Hiroki, that makes sense that it's a boy

And yes, it would be Etiquette In Violence. the thing that's stopping me is that it's about $50CDN (comparable with some of Amano's artbooks at $20-30). I livei n vancouver and there's this anime store called Sakura Media that sells it, among other artbooks (some of which seem to be rather rare, they're selling Amano's Hiten o_o)

AP is down

watch Babel if you can . In terms of camera work and musically, it's so-so, but it takes the Fountain's tri-focused plot and does very interesting things with it. Personally, it wrenched my heart out, threw it on the floor, threatened to step on it only to give me faint relief, then it dashed it to bits with a Rifle. i loved it , and you're as masochistic as i am, so :3

it's been running for a while though, so you might have to look hard. it's 18a too, but i didn't get hassled about my age and neither did my friend (who could pass off for a 14yo if she tried) when we went so..

MR. BROMIMIMIMITHIHIHIHIA A HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS TO YOU <3.

MERRY CHRISTMASSSSSSSSSSSSSS

<3

i think we've lost ish to the wii, cap'n.

somethign will happen !

It.. i.. ahhhh D:

I'm working on something, and if i don't get owned by midterms/FFXII then i'll submit it

it is Faye actually :O It's from the cover of the "No Disc" soundtrack. Her hair is a little more visible (at certain angles) in the original scan as linked from my desc - i'm pretty sure it's faye

all the shiningdays walls you love have been eaten by lack of time, inspiration and general tiredness from going to university. hopefully i'll pump something out within the next week or so

your MT userpage is highly lacking celeste spam. :O

edit: WTF, since when are we both "renowned artists"? DDD (check the sidebar)

*giggles*

'grats on the promotion

Quote by candy-chanthinking about it, the athmosphere reminds me of mononoke hime's sacred forest :3 glowing stuff flying around, dark greens...

funny you should say that when i was making the green stuff coming out from under his feet, even though it was in the original scan i kept saying to myself "omfg, he's turning into the deer-freakyface thing from Mononoke Hime DD"

Quote by Zefiethis is really interesting wallpaper of d. gray-man ! composition is quite simple but there is much details and shapes on the vector which makes you look it quite carefully. the way how you made the shades and darker parts of the pic with blue colouring is nice effect, but from some parts it little hard to see which lines belongs to belong to allen and which to the clown. but overall the vectoring is really neat and clean looking ^_^ colouring is bright and yellow gives happy atmosphere. other tones on the background fit with the light yellow nicely. i think you should have done something for the left side of the wall too so it would look more balanced. though the concept is more easy to look at when it isn't crowded from details. overallnice work and thank you for sharing !

thanks for the comment it's nice to see someone who actually thinks about what they're going to say instead of just the normal "omg pretty i like colours +favs lol!" type comment. As to the "which lines belong to Allen/the clown" comment, it was like that in the original manga scan D: i think the point the artist (Hoshino Katsura) was trying to get across was that they are one and the same.. or something like that, anywho. so anyways! thanks for the comment again~

then fucking try harder, damnit.

Quote by bromithiaHighlight-ed

I love it. Great work.

i thought you might like it thanks

Quote by SharinganKnightI like it. the vector could use some tweaks, but I like the crisp, colorful and clean approach you took towards it. I get the feeling however, that this wall would be most suited to be wide screen, seeing as the top is so empty that it sort of throws the thing a bit out of proportion. Im not a very big fan of those fowers you used, but its a good Eureka Seven wallpaper, I can't not fave it.

i'm done struggling with this wallpaper. it hates me and i hate it :< (actually that's not true, i liked it at one point.) i shove icons into the top to alieviate the emptiness, but it may in fact be better suited towards a widescreen version. the flowers aren't exactly my favorite either, but i didn't want the background to be just a gradient and i didn't want it too textured. (i've reached a stage of defeat with this wallpaper. -o-)

Quote by AnalynHey shiningdays. I LOVE your Neon Genesis 'The Great Destroyer' wallpaper. I was wondering if you would mind if I used it to create a web page layout for my site. I wouldn't redistribute the layout and I would credit you for it. Please respond!
Thanks

i would mind, actually, so i'm going to have to say no. i'm glad you like the wallpaper, but aside from the original image, that's already a creation of mine and no one else's. thank you for taking the time to ask, though. you can find the original image at the Anime Project Alliance's Evalgelion gallery though, if you're interested.

Quote by eunasahngExtremely original and creative. Lovely use of stock, colours and textures. It's a fabulous wallpaper which deserves A LOT. *highlighted*

Thanks i was somewhat upset that this wall didn't get alot of comments before it was highlighted since i actually like it lots~

Quote by PAcheit a really unique wallpaper...i never even thought of having a stitching in such a situation! and i must say, that scan you picked was excellent, very "old england", fits a stictching on a hanky very well.

but what i don't like is that...there is little contrast in general.and so when everything blends in, my eye gets confused where to go and the stitching, which personally i think should be given the most attention, loses to the rose petals(or whatever flower petals those are).also, the petals are not really randomly distributed, so it seems like someone purposely dropped them just around the stitching, and that makes the whole picture less natural and takes away some of the charm.the stitching also somehow doesnt flow with the folds of the cloth.plus, the stitch and cloth seems apart...maybe because of what i meantioned earlier, the folding and all, but probably also because of other reasons

but hey, to do what you did?its really original and intrigueing.actually, because the colours were so close, i didnt notice the stitching in the thumbnail and don't worry about my criticism. if you get irritated by it, console yourself with the knowledge that i cannot produce such intricate pieces like this i'll lose patience, or i don't even have the skill to do it.yet. <3

On the contrary, i'm quite happy to hear your criticisms ^^;

I realized pretty early on in the wallpaper that the thumbnail wasn't going to garner it much attention (which kind of upset me, as i really like this wallpaper.) The rose petals were placed a little more randomly at first, but i like to have room for icons in my wallpapers, so i cleared out the middle :P. there was also way, waaay to many of them in the original souce stock.

Mmmm. i agree with the focus being taken away from the stitching, actually. But i also didn't want the stitching to "pop" too much, my main concern was having it a nice, complementary colour to the fabric. And yeah @ the folding. i couldn't find a better stock, and, frankly, as i made this in the middle of my exams, i wasn't going to deal with drawing the grain of the cloth in slightly to give it the puckered effect that sitching has on fabric.

thanks for your comments. they were very informative.
