Ah amissa! I picked up my story of seasons with the bunny!
Did you get your copy yet?

 

[Amissapanda]

STILL YOU CAME IN FIRST.
I'm proud of you Manda, I could give you all the dongers in the world.

Oh wait, I think you had enough dongers in your Earthbound stream.

In a couple of races, I did come in first, but never overall. The closest I got to that was 2nd in the first set of the night.

And you can keep your dongers, kthx.

Congrats~

I honestly don't know if I will be getting it or not yet. I'm going to wait for some reviews and feedback about what the game has to offer. I was not at all impressed by the Let's Play I watched someone do (who translated the Japanese version as she and her boyfriend played, basically). So I'm not going to dump money into it until I know for sure that it will be worth it for me. Especially considering I need to be making money and not spending it. I'm going to be extra careful.

That's what I meant, you coming first in a cup would stop time and space in total, You need to be jinxed to keep the laws of physics into proper action.

OH COME ON, I'VE GOT TOO MANY OF THEM.

...Dude, I've come in first in cups many times before. :| By your reasoning, time and space should be stopped forever now.

Too bad. Keep them. They're your curse, not mine.

 

[Hyoshido]

I don't come to all the streams, Manda, don't abuse me here 8(

Can we share atleast? I PROMISE, they'll be good.

 

[Amissapanda]

If anything, you're the one antagonizing and abusing me. And making me feel bad about myself. : (

No. Do not want.

 

[Hyoshido]

Manda you're an amazing woman who just can't come first place whenever I'm around 8( always coming first when I'm NOT around, It's like, unfair for me, I WANT to see you win so I can throw my money on your screen!!

Me -> (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:・ﾟ ✧ﾟ[̲̅$̲̅(̲̅100)̲̅$̲̅] <- Your dosh

 

[Amissapanda]

Psh. You weren't around on Monday. And frankly, this past Monday was the worst I have done in a loooooooong time. So your presence doesn't affect the outcome. It's my duck. And my duck usually isn't very good. :' )

Come on, no foolin'. You wouldn't throw money you could use to buy more amiibos. OF THIS I AM SURE.

Actually finished this about a week ago, but haven't felt much motivation to post it here. But here it is, for anyone that may enjoy it.

I suppose this thread will be buried again in a few minutes, but whatevs~

I do so love my Fakiru. Also, I'm debating whether or not to include this coloring style in my commissions from now on. What do you guys think? any feedback would be great. I'd have to redo commission sheets a bit, but if it has potential interest from buyers, that's more than worth it to me.

 

[pengutango]

Oh! I've been meaning to tell ya that I FINALLY got around to watching Princess Tutu (yeah, I know I'm late... XD). Wasn't sure what to think of it at first, but it grew on me for sure. Ended up binge watching it over 2-3 days (didn't quite keep track, but at least 2 days for sure though).

It certainly was a lot darker towards the end than I expected the series as a whole to be. I definitely can understand why you love the Fakiru pairing so much, now that I've seen the series. They do make a cute pairing and while I hated Fakir at first, he's not so bad later on.

As for the new pic, looks like a more painted style, which is a nice change from the cell shading you tend to do. I think it'd be something nice to offer for commissions, though is it harder to do, versus your normal coloring style, as I do remember that your tablet is a bit iffy at times, something like that?

Ohhh, awesome! (I binge-watched it the first time, too. lol) It definitely got darker once the second half of the series came along. That entire have has an entirely different feel from the first half. But that's one of the things I really liked about it. lol And I'm with you on hating Fakir at first. The series convinced me through character-development, though. : ) Glad that you (seemed to?) enjoyed it!

And thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate that. It's definitely more paint-like than my other style and it's pretty difficult to do when I have to manually set the brush's opacity and overlay for every layer of color, but despite it being a little harder to do, it's definitely fun. And it feels kind of nice to be a little more free with the coloring than I can be with cel. My tablet isn't perfect, but it works for coloring better than lines, at least. Haha.

Haha, it certainly will make things even crazier than usual~ I look forward to it. : P



Still looking for feedback on my question, if anyone has any.

I just love this! Their cheeks are super cool! And hair! What?! I have no clue who these characters are, but I love them anyways! I would def DEF commish this! I will elaborate more in a bit when I am on my computer...my fat thumb hits the wrong letters on my phone!

Thank you so much! Hehe, I pretty much adore the heck out of these two (they're my OTP), so I'm no stranger to doing art of them. I never do get tired of it, though. Haha. And I've still been on the fence on whether or not to keep going with that style of coloring and/or potentially add it to commission options, so thank you very much for letting me know! Every bit of feedback helps and I'm very grateful for your input! (No worries! I know how difficult it is to type with one. Don't stress yourself!)

 

[aleshapie]

Did you watch the ND video? The style of these guys remind me of one of the new eShop games coming out. So cute! I grabbed my iPad, so its marginally better to type here...emphasis on marginally!

The shading on his blue shirt adds such wonderful dimension! You do a great job with hands! NOT an easy task! But (imo) one of your best talents is your perfect proportions! Not only are the perfectly proportioned, they are also "not exactly the same" ...in other words, he is correctly slightly larger than her petite frame with a great chisel to his face!but hers is sweetly rounded while maintaining her petiteness.

 

[Kairi-Kitten]

I have to agree, your style for your OTP is just so sweet and beautiful, I think you should certainly continue it and as Ale said with her petite cuteness I just adore how you represent Ahiru in your pieces as well as that little bit of attitude and embarrassment from Fakir<3 I say please continue it is just precious to see each and every one you post : ) I apologize for not posting sooner, but yes I must say I always have enjoyed fangirling hard at each OTP piece you have done, thy are just so fun to squeal over lol xD Sorry if this is less critique haha but I do agree also the shading/features are detailed so beautifully would love to see you continue!

I watched the heck out of it when it aired, yeah. XD And screeched when Lucas was revealed. I'm not sure which games you're talking about, though. They did a lot of them and at that point, I think I was posting on twitter/tumblr about Lucas hype, so my attention was divided. Hahaha.

Thank you! I've been experimenting with colors a lot, without using strict palettes and giving myself a little more freedom. I added a lot of blue and purple tones to that piece in particular, but tried to keep a 'warm' feeling, if that makes any sense. And I'm overjoyed that you think the hands are good! Those and feet are my biggest weakness. Especially hands, though. And the characters have a really big height/size difference. He's over a head taller than she is. I'm glad the size difference is recognizable even when they're sitting! I definitely tend to draw her more 'rounded' than he is.

Once again, I appreciate your feedback immensely, thank you.

Awww, thank you so much! I think I definitely will continue experimenting with the style, at the very least. I'll probably end up adding it to the commission list, too, since not everyone wants cel-shaded or soft cel-shaded. I'm glad you like how I represent them, though. It means a lot, since I'm really passionate about the series they come from and them as a pairing. :3 And expressions are always fun to play with! (Especially for grumpy tsunderes like Fakir. XD)

No need to apologize, though! Seriously, I'm happy that even a few people here don't dislike me/outright ignore me due to not having a shop and such. That means a lot that even a few people actually want to see my art and don't just want to use me. I appreciate that MORE than I can say. And I'm glad you enjoy the OTP pics! Hehe, nothing makes me happier than drawing my favorite couples. X3 Brings such joy!

I will continue, thank you! I'm working on a concept for another small piece to play around with it in and if I like how that turns out, I think I'll outright go ahead and fix my commission sheets to add it in. :3

Thanks again, both of you! (And Pengu, as well.) Your feedback is vastly appreciated and I enjoy chatting with you guys, too. Anytime you want. Haha.

Yep, I definitely enjoyed it. Glad I finally got around to watching it for sure. It really does change soo much in the 2nd half. I almost wondered if it was the same series because it was so much darker in the latter half. Yeah, I was happy with the character development for Fakir. When he was first introduced, I was seriously like, "I can't believe Panda ships him with Ahiru. He's such an a**hole. Ironic too since they look so cute together in her pics...."

No prob. Hope it helps, even a lil bit. XD Eww, damn, that seriously sucks. But, as long as you enjoy it, that's the most important part. If you have to do commissions, might as well try to have fun while doing them. Yeah, that's about the only downside of cell-shading. The fact that it's a bit more restricting since all the lines have hard edges. Since I got my tablet, I haven't done any cell shading at all. Much prefer the softer and painted looks. Probably since I get bad memories about cell shading with my mouse... T.T

Btw, you ever thought about getting a new tablet down the road? I forgot if I ever asked you this, so forgive me if I have. ^^; I dunno how you don't throw your tablet against the wall since I probably might have done so if I was in your position. I'm no where near as patient as you are with it. Though, I surprise myself with patience at times, but.. beyond the point.

 

[aleshapie]

Any time! All well deserved!

Without sounding like a complete noob... Are they OCs or from a game?

I am happy to hang out and chat! As long as it's not about how inferior I feel playing MK8 with you guys!! LOL!
