Manda Panda's Art Gallery

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine~

A piece of Lucas I did somewhat recently. Left it as an unshaded sketch for now as I may very well color it at some point. Perhaps after I get through commission work when I get home from my trip.

My most fave quote EVER. In fact, my daughters and I are considering tatooing lines of it on the medial side of our foot, above the arch, ya know? Each have a line, oldest to youngest. I will have to find a pic to show you.

Anyhow...I love your bby Lucas. That daisy is for me, right? LOL...

Ahhh, that sounds like a super-cute thing to do! It's definitely a great quote/song to work with and very uplifting. In my opinion, perfect for familial ties, too. : )

Thank you! Lucas makes me happy to draw. He's had such a hard time in his own life that I just love to draw him smiling or being happy. (It was meant to be a small sunflower, but I can see how it doesn't really resemble one. I honestly didn't use any flower references drawing it. Haha.)

This thread clearly needs more art, sooo~!

A couple of somewhat-oldies from last year! I was playing with coloring styles and doing palette work (which I definitely need to work more with in the future when I have time).

 

[Amissapanda]

A little boop!~

I'm having a great Friday and hope you guys are, too! : ) (Whether you are or are not having a good day, treat yourself to something nice, because you deserve it!)

 

[kyoko xo]

waa i need this art .-.

The sentiment is appreciated, thank you! : )

I'm afraid I don't currently have any TBT or IGB shops, however. They're incredibly hard to keep up with. I only do RLC, and those are on hold until I return from my trip.

 

[aleshapie]

Ooooh...where you going? When can we see what yo giving to Mark?

Also...At first I thought it WAS a sunflower, but then thought "maybe not, cuz its a little small"... I used to have an unhealthy obsession w sunflowers, so I always assumed everyone else did too...now I err on the side of caution. Hehehe

I'm going to Seattle, WA. : ) I've been there a couple times in the past, but not for 10 or so years now. lol

Well, I actually just finished the Markiplier drawing tonight, but I don't know if I should save posting it until I get back or not. I'll think about it. At the very least, I need to scan it, since I plan to give it to him in person and therefore once it's out of my hands, I won't have it anymore.

Ohhh, I see. Yeah, it's pretty small for a sunflower. But sunflowers are a huge running theme in Mother 3, and very appropriate to associate with Lucas because of that. I draw him with sunflowers or sunflower themes a lot.

You know, it is probably best if you let HIM see his gift before all of us! But do scan it for future posting, please! I am happy to read you have gotten it done! That must be a relief... My problem would be constantly going back to it...over and over again. I am hypercritical of myself (sewing/quilting/crafter).

Lucas is such a hansome little guy! I am sure he is fun to draw!

Have loads of fun in Seattle! Lotsa street passes in the airport!!! Woot-woot!!

That's what I'm planning on. : ) I don't want it to be all over the internet before he gets a chance to see it, since it's for him. That would be sort of like posting a friend's birthday art gift on tumblr for all eyes to see before their birthday and before they've even seen it, themselves. But yeah, definitely a relief! I did spend a lot of time going back over it and fixing things here and there and I know I'll keep on doing that probably every single time I look at it. Hahaha. I do that a lot (and so do many people), so you're not alone! It's hard to be completely satisfied with something, particularly when you're giving it as a gift.

He iiissss. I love drawing all of the Mother 3 crew, really, but probably Lucas the most. Something about him is just very inspiring, much like how I feel about Ahiru from Princess Tutu.

Thank you! Considering I live in the middle of nowhere and literally get no street passes, I look forward to actually getting some for once. XD I have lots of layovers (like Chicago and San Fransisco), so lots of opportunities, as long as the charge doesn't die.

HIATUS NOTICE!

I'll be gone from Tuesday, August 18th, until Wednesday, September 2nd! If you need me for anything, please send a message to my e-mail! I will be away out west, attending my brother's wedding and heading to PAX Prime the following weekend!

Here's a few palette art pieces I will leave you with:

Rosalina. <3 (Super Mario Galaxy)

Rue. <3 (Princess Tutu)

Chase. <3 (Harvest Moon: Animal Parade)

Fakir. <3 (Princess Tutu)

Lucas. <3 (Mother 3)

More to come when I return! I'm sure I'll have some new sketches and things that I've done on the trip, as well as the Markiplier piece!

Thanks a lot, Shiro! : ) I had an AMAZING trip in so many ways! The wedding was beautiful, I went to a zoo for the first time since I was around 9 years old, I had lots of fun spending time with family, and had THE MOST EXCELLENT AMAZING TIME AT PAX PRIME, OH MY GOD.

I love that rosalina. :O

Thank you very much! : ) I'm glad that you like her!

Thanks a lot! Palette art is a lot of fun. And I'm glad you enjoyed that one!

I have indeed returned, safe and sound and on the ground! Hahaha. Thanks a lot for the little bumps over the last two weeks! I appreciate it a lot!

...Okay, guys. I can't hold this back any longer.

I MET MARKIPLIER AND GOT TO HAND HIM MY FANART OF HIM IN PERSON. I WAS LITERALLY SQUEALING THE REST OF THE DAY.

It was just. Oh my gosh, unforgettable. I feel like I still need to pinch myself. He thanked me and even got a picture taken with me, courtesy of my awesome sis-in-law Stefanie. She literally pushed my shy butt up to the stage and encouraged me, even though he was REALLY pressed for time and literally had like, 3 minutes to talk to his fans after his panel. And that really was my only chance to meet him, because while the panel was going on, the signature session afterward for Mark, Jacksepticeye, Wade, and Bob, was already completely capped out (people started lining up at 2:30PM, apparently, which was THREE HOURS before the session started, and it was capped after one hour, which was when the panel started).

Anyway, I'm just. Shocked. In awe. I met someone who inspires me so much and makes me want to be a better person every day. And it felt amazing. PAX Prime altogether was great, but meeting Mark was really the cream on top of everything.

 

[Shirohibiki]

omg thats so awesome!!!! im so glad you had a good time!! and wow, i bet meeting mark was fantastic 8D the pictures are so cute omfg. eeeee im so happy for you <3333
