Stop being sweet, you're making me flustered. >///< fffffffffff

Nonsense, I clearly don't do it enough.
I really should do it more :>

You just like having that effect on me. Admit it.

Also, it's Lucas time.

Precious cinnamon roll. To pure for this world.

BUT READY TO KICK SERIOUS BUTT IN SMASH! Hahaha.

I had fun coloring him. And I'm loving that new palette in particular. Makes me wonder what the unrevealed ones will be so far. If he has a Boney and Masked Man style, maybe Kumatora and Duster will show up with a palette too. : ) Probably not as likely, but still. I'm very much looking forward to his DLC and to gonna-be-cute-as-hell amiibo. Awwww yis.

D'awww, that's just too perfect, Manda! While Masked Man will always be the one I'll use, that Boney one is a close close second! I too wonder what his other colors will be >u<! The detail and everything is just ace! Wonderful work like always!

You just like having that effect on me. Admit it.

Ofcourse, I'd love the sight of your lovely self blushing over my nonsense!

It's far from perfect, but thanks! I think it's actually the first time I've ever really drawn Lucas chibi before. T'was fun, though. The Masked Man one gives me too many feels (like the Claus colors), so I don't know if I'll be touching that one. lol But thank you, glad you liked the details and such~

Hey, hey hey hey hey. Who said anyone was blushing? You stop that.

You need to stop dying. lol Pretty soon you'll develop and all new condition of spontaneous deaths/almost deaths.

But thank you kindly! I'm pretty happy with how he turned out, over all. I'm glad that you liked the coloring! It's still something I'm working on and developing a comfort level with, slowly but surely! (It's fun, though. I really do like the free-ness of painting compared to solid cel shading.)

A light little boopie on the booster bottom~

And celebrating 15 eggs with Waluigi funk.

 

[Hyoshido]

Waluigi eggs are all you need.

Hey, hey hey hey hey. Who said anyone was blushing? You stop that.

">///<" explains a lot! You said that!
And no, I won't stop!

 

[pengutango]

Yeah, it really is a stark change in the tone of the series. I enjoyed that a lot, since I feel like it's kind of almost playing on how some fairytales are made "prettier" by taking out the nasty truths or endings in them. And Princess Tutu turns that on its head by bringing out the terrible truth of everything and the characters ultimately defy their "roles" in the story to avoid a tragic ending. I could go on forever about theories and meta and everything in-between for the series. XD It has strong feminist roots, too. Even depicting how brute force like a sword is cast away for a pen, literally embodying "the pen is mightier than the sword". ...I really need to stop before I do go on and on and on. Hahahahaha. And I don't blame you for being confused with my shipping preferences. Had someone only seen the first few episodes of the show, it would be pretty baffling, I'm sure (although there are people who ship the bad guys/good girls, regardless of whether one is actually good/bad or not).

It does, thank you! Haha, it's a given that there's always going to be commissions that I don't enjoy (like various fetish stuff or shipping self-inserts with canon characters, etc), but that's part of taking on commissions in the first place. It's rare that you're going to get something you're COMPLETELY comfortable with. It's just something you've got to put at the back of your mind and set your comfort levels to the side if you want to make money. lol I only draw the line at stuff like gore. I just won't do that kind of thing at all. As for cel-shading, I don't mind it and sometimes I even prefer it. The colors can look crisp and such, but it is nice just brush and tone more freely, because you can mix colors a bit more to get some really neat effects and tones, too.

Another tablet is just out of the question for me, though. My tablet monitor cost me nearly $600 and I've only had it for two years. I can't justify getting rid of it to get a new one. And I can't use the ones where you look at your computer screen and draw in your lap. My hand-eye coordination is a bit too poor for that. I work with what I've got, though! No worries. I just don't really use it for lineart and do lineart by hand. And from what I've heard from people who buy art from me, they like the rustic look of the pencil lines that I change colors of/darken, etc.

Yeah, I've read some of the original versions of some of these fairy tales and man... they're rather depressing and just straight up dark. It's super funny when we see all these adaptions of the stories and it's all happy, which definitely isn't the case in the actual story for sure. It definitely does, which is nice since it's not everyday see the focus on a strong female character.

That's definitely true. Some people like the bad boys. XD Yeah, since with cell-style, everything you do pops, versus a more blended look (something like that). Oh the woes of making money... XP It's like you said, you won't always like what a person commissions, but having a line of what you will not draw is good to have.

Hmmm, yeah, I guess that's true, especially if you don't have a ton of money to spare. That's a good point. Your lines are pretty clean to begin with, so you don't necessarily have to do any actual line art. If they looked like chicken scratch, well... that'd be another story.

Haha, dem Waluigi eggs. Super crazy that the Shop's stocked with a LOT of them. Though, it's probably overkill since I doubt it'll sell out. ^^;

 

[Amissapanda]

Waluigi eggs are all you need.

I wanted a Yoshi egg more, so I'm happy now.

Heyheyheyheyhey. I said stop. : ( That never happened.

Yup. I was surprised, too. Back in middle school, we did a report on the "real" fairytales behind popular/well-known ones. I did "The Little Mermaid" and I was downright depressed after reading the original. It's no wonder Disney changes them to happy endings. lol I did look up a couple other ones, but there was one that downright disturbed me. I think it was either Snow White or Sleeping Beauty. I don't recommend reading them, though. lol But yeah, I love the focus the series had on females in general and how they didn't really need a "hero" to save them. Heck, in Ahiru's case, it was often the other way around. Plus, amusingly, Mytho was the real damsel in distress. XD

I admit I do have a thing for the bad boys sometimes, but generally not ones who are straight up evil and have no redeeming qualities. More or less, I like the male tsunderes the best, I think. They try to act all tough and manly and rude, but they're woobies on the inside who cuddle with small animals and blush like a cherry when they're embarrassed. So needless to say, I warmed up to Fakir later on.

Oh, I definitely do have a line of what not to cross in my commissions. And thankfully, people generally respect those. There's no sense making yourself like physically or mentally uncomfortable or ill just from trying to draw something, after all. I'm sure anyone could agree with that.

Yup, that's how I feel about it. What I have works and it works decently, so I shouldn't be looking for ways to spend money until I might actually make some money in the future. lol And that's definitely not this year. Some people may consider it boring or "too responsible", but I like to be really careful with money. I splurge when I know that I can. I actually hate spending money. lol

Hahahaha. Yeah, Justin did that last night. Some of us were wary about going to sleep, because we thought the Waluigi eggs might be sold out in the morning and didn't know if we should buy one. So he was like "here, this solves the problem". Anyway, I got what I went into the event for, so I'm pleased. The time and effort was worth it, in the end.

Thanks to everyone who came to play/watch, tonight! It was a pretty eggciting stream! Lots of salt, lots of racing, and a heck a lotta laughs.

Gosh, and I swore I wasn't going to make any egg puns...

I may or may not stream Smash Bros Wii U Tuesday night!

 

[aleshapie]

I just LOVE your Lucas! I screamed when I saw he was coming to SSB!! YAY!

Thanks so much! Haha, I screamed during the Nintendo Direct. I wasn't expecting that at all, so Nintendo really did surprise me. XD I'm so happy that he's returning and even more that he's getting an amiibo, too!

 

[Amissapanda]

Birthday gift from my sis-in-law and older brother arrived!

And she also sent me this adorable little card sketch she drew herself!

My scanner didn't do it justice (she does super-light but super-detailed shading), but it's so cool and I love it. She's a fantastic artist.

WOOT-WOOT! You have all the "amiibo" suits now? Fox was our last suit to get, so I just assume he is everyone else's last, too...LOL

 

[Amissapanda]

No, not nearly. Haha. I think I have six of them, total. There are some amiibos I didn't want (and I tend to just collect the ones that I do want instead of trying to go for full sets. I don't have that kind of money). He's the last one I'll have for this set of suits and I think I have 4 or 5 from the line-up coming in on April 23rd. Pretty excited for the villager one, since that helmet with the ears is adorable. XD
