Rough Artworks

Together, Always.

26 January 2017

I finished watching Yuri on Ice a while ago and I have to say, I loved it. I wasn’t expecting to that’s for sure – but the animation, character development, storytelling, and relationships has definitely left me wanting more… not because it was lacking, but because it was so well done!
I sincerely hope that there will be a season 2. I love Viktor and Yuri (+ how much they love each other!)… I want to see more of them and the other characters!! aaaaa

Thank you for looking and have a great day everyone <3

A Little Break

20 December 2016

I’ve been kinda obsessed with Animal Crossing ever since November… -v- Nintendo did SUCH a good job releasing the Welcome Amiibo update. I recommend it to anyone who has Animal Crossing New Leaf, for sure!

Anyways, have an oldish doodle of Isabelle I drew, since it’s her birthday today!
She’s taking a well-deserved tea/coffee break~

Thanks for looking!

Natsume Yuujinchou collection

18 December 2016

Hey, long time no post! Things have been… well. I don’t know how they’ve been. But I’m hoping things will turn around in 2017.

Anyways, about the artwork.
I was so, so happy when it was announced that Natsume Yuujinchou would have a season 5 after years of hiatus… and it did not disappoint! I missed this series SO MUCH. It was definitely a highlight of my otherwise bleak autumn. It kept me excited and I’ve doodled a fair amount of it <3

pic 1 – I just wanted to paint Natsume in an autumn setting for the aesthetic. Originally I painted him with his anime colours, but realized that his manga colours popped more (plus, more manga!natsume art is always good). This was drawn maybe in September or early October. There’s a video of me painting some finishing details on youtube.
pic 2 – Drawn more recently, inspired by one of the recent episodes of Natsume Yuujinchou Go. Natsume is so lucky to have Touko and Shigeru as foster parents… but what if they adopted him as a child rather than a teenager? It would’ve been so wonderful. So I wanted to draw it! Now excuse me while I go deal with intense Natsume family feels kthanks.
pic 3 – Recent picture. I just started drawing and it turned into Natsume lol~

(I wish I had a 3rd pic to put beside the last one for pretty formatting… but alas I don’t. sigh.)

You’ll be seeing a lot more posts from me over the next two weeks, since I have a bunch of doodles/artworks I want to post before the new year hits! Yeahh!!
Hope everyone’s having a good time~

Moment of Rest

9 October 2016

I wanted to draw something for Fullmetal Alchemist day (October 3rd, “Don’t Forget”) but I didn’t get a chance. So I’m posting this on Thanksgiving since Ed’s tired, just like everybody eating turkey this weekend! …Bit too much of a stretch? Okay.
I figured it would be nice to draw Ed having a moment of peace despite all the trouble and hardship he and Al go through. Plus I was pretty tired myself when I drew this haha.

Anyways, thanks for looking and I hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving!
(And had a happy FMA day, too).

Spring in her Step

11 April 2016

A quick chibi of Sakura that I drew last week, inspired by the fact it was her birthday on the 1st~
I want spring weather to come faster. We’re still getting snow regularly here. : (

Thanks for looking! ♥

Standing Still

2 April 2016

“How do I move forward from here?”

Another quick painting of Edward Elric that I drew last month. It was particularly drawn to vent some difficult emotions I’m experiencing, but also because I was looking through some Fullmetal Alchemist anime (2003) artbooks. They made me feel inspired to draw Ed. -w-

I have two pictures of Ed that are similar (not that I was trying to do redraw them). Only one is on my blog, but here’s a link to it anyways, in case you’d like to see. Though this one is supposed to be during a sunrise rather than nightfall… lol.

Also, I recently found out that Fullmetal Alchemist is getting a live action movie. My mind is still too blown to know what to think of that fact, but I imagine it will be… interesting??? 9_9

Thanks for looking!~ C:

DrawPile Sketchdump 2015-2016

23 February 2016

Last year, a friend introduced me to DrawPile, a program where you can draw with your friends (or stream, through the program). I need to set it up better, but I just figured since I don’t have much I can post these days, I’d share some of the things I’ve drawn on there~

(They’re from late-2015 to early-2016, approximately oldest to newest)

Lots of fanart, but some originals too.
Towards the end I decided I didn’t feel like sketching, and just wanted to colour. Wasn’t easy, but it’s more comforting for me somehow~

Thanks for looking!!

I’ll go anywhere and do anything…

1 November 2015

…if it’s for you.


I was rereading the first volume of Tsubasa, and really wanted to draw that version of Sakura and Syaoran – though I based their outfits off the anime (which I haven’t seen).
I know Sakura looks too short here, but she’s simply sitting whereas Syaoran is standing. >.> It’s just not shown… oops.

Thanks for looking and have a great week everyone~

Autumn Trees

11 October 2015

Just a quick thing I did last night. I didn’t sketch out anything ahead of time, I just went with it.
I mainly wanted to capture the various colours of the trees with the sunset. For whatever reason the autumn trees have really got my interest this year, but I suppose they’re one of my favourite things about autumn – that, and the food. : D

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO THE CANADIANS OUT THERE~!
And thanks for following my work, no matter where in the world you are, and I hope each and every one of you have a wonderful weekend~ ^-^ (no matter how cheesy it sounds!!)

Boop

2 September 2015

I’ve drawn Sakura and Syaoran together before (including pictures as pink as this one), but nothing quality enough to post. I wasn’t even sure about this picture. But I figured I might as well post it, since I love this pairing so much. ^-^;/////
Otherwise, I don’t think I have much to say. This picture is pretty self-explanatory lol.

Have a good week everyone!
