LOOK I'M DOING STUFF

It's a wonder I can finish these with a test coming up and my presentation to do on Tuesday. CAN THIS WEEK BE OVER YET. TAT

ART SPAM DUMP 2

I like putting pictures in my blog, so I'll put up pictures that I've been able to work on. My CGing has gotten WAY better.



Old character of mine that I wanted to doodle. She has a twin...



Who I frankly did not give any justice to. ;;



Quickly colored in this lineart I had months ago.



Gift for a friend.



An updated version of this picture. My first attempt at using a tablet. It hasn't even been a year since I've gotten my first tablet and I was able to improve leaps and bounds from that point.

I'll have another spam dumping tomorrow.

Falling over, getting back up

Been awhile since I've written in this huh? Not a surprise, but school has been kicking my butt horribly, so much so that I couldn't get the writing done for Crimson Midnight. No fancy language about this: I failed at finishing within the two month period. I probably was way in over my head when I thought I could get a full story done and I let down my dev team. *sigh*

(In other news, I got accepted into my first choice college and got all excellent grades last semester except for my government class. So RL itself is tough, but rewarding)

It's the experiences that count though.

Although it makes me think. Maybe I'm not suited for a writing position? I'm more of a co-writer. I mean, I RP in my spare time as a hobby along with drawing anime and manga. And maybe I'm not good at writing different branches of a story. I'm rather linear minded so to speak.

Even if I failed at finishing a project, there is always a good thing that comes out of the bad. I was able to write a more substantial piece of work even if it is unfinished. (It will be finished sometime in the future however) I'm learning how to brainstorm better thanks to working with other people and how to be more consistent in my writing. Collaborating with people is also an important skill that was put into practice.

Thankfully in life and in visual novels, failure is not the end unless you let it be. I'll be going back to the art production of Stained One before tackling the writing. In fact, that was what I should have been focusing on before being absorbed in my storyline for it. In any case, over the past two months my CGing has improved if the WIP above is any indication. I'm not backing off from making VNs yet!

Now to download the games that HAVE been finished for the two month challenge and write a letter and draw a sketch for Deji.

Reset

Whooo, SAT and more than half of my volunteer work done. BUT. Although I said I would work on Stained One this week, guess what?

COLLEGE APPLICATIONS. So yeah, no story or art development yet.

And yet I have time to CG this image, I'm such a hypocrite.

Nobody knows...

Ah, it's been awhile since I posted stuff hm? School has started and Stained One is probably never going to see the light of day for a while. For the sake of visuals though, here's a picture of the unnamed redhead from [Phase Shift].



I'm still don't have much confidence in my CG skills enough to handle event CGs in Stained One alone. Sprites should be fine, but yeah... This is a messy CG at best, but it looks better than my last attempt.

=A=

Still having trouble writing chapter one for Stained One even though I have a complete outline. Actually writing is always the hard part. =A=;



Which is why I make pictures like this when I don't have inspiration. I really miss writing for Ai Thao, she's just so mysterious. People on LSF have expressed interest in a sequel to [Phase Shift] as I might've mentioned before... Have I? Dunno.

Anyways, Happy Birthday Deji!!!!! Will be thinking up of a sketch to give as a birthday gift to one of my favorite and most helpful CG artists ever :DD

Hm, I'll force myself to write something so that my volunteer editor can have something to poke at. THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING.
