Hi!

Just figured it was time to update my journal skin and update on what I am getting up to these days.

On going projects:

APH Doujins: These Gates and Feverish-It's All Too Much

Original Stuff: Redraw of Ivy Prison

As some of you may know I would like to be a professional manga/comic maker one shiny day in the near-ish future and to that end I am going to be re-working a short original one-shot, "Ivy Prison", that I can feed to local publishers to get my foot in the door, see if they like my style as it were. Ideally, I would like to get my pet project "The Lost" published in the future but I will hold that one back until I know if there will be a market for it ( It is a super long, multi book potential story line that I don't want to give away just yet ;) )

Of course I am still going strong with the Hetalia doujins, I have no plans to stop making them, they are fun to do and great drawing practice! Besides, I have soooo many plans for These Gates, it is only about a third complete >w<

Sooo, if you get the odd Ivy Prison page in your inbox amoung the APH pages I would love to hear what you think.

I would also like to thank all of you guys for your excellent support as I have developed over the past two years! You are the best! I feel pushed to do better because I want to entertain you and make you feel feelings through my art works!

Thank you for everything and I look forward to sharing my next pages with you!

oh, and I still love getting music suggetions for my 'These Gates' playlist, I have heard so much awesome music thanks to all the great suggetions!

"...So, count to three and turn...?"

"...Yeah, I guess so..."



























After many hours trying to fight it I must resign myself to the fact that I will be drawing a Hetalia War of 1812 manga. It will be called, ‘These Gates’. I really tried to fight it because I am already doing two others (Ungrateful Children and Feverish-It’s All Too Much) but some ideas just nibble away at the brain and need to be done.



:star:Here’s where I need your help.:star: When I draw I listen to music to set the tone of what I draw. Happy music for happy drawings, dark and angsty for dark and angsty~ However, my playlist of epic-fight/sad music, if you will, is tragically short. I need suggestions for a ‘soundtrack’ to draw to for this project.

The type of stuff I am looking for is along the lines of :

Exterminate, Regenerate-Chameleon Circuit www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7_KXL…
Zombie-Cranberries www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ejga4…
Louder Than Thunder-The Devil Wears Prada www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5ubtp…
Ice Queen- Within Temptation www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1Z6eh…
Love the Way You Lie- Eminem www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGT6AK…
24-Jem www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u-Z9H…
Shattered-Trading Yesterday www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_LOOK…
Creep- Radiohead or Scala version www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzjUjN… www.youtube.com/watch?v=axrqVf…
This is War- 30 Seconds to Mars www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zcps2f…

Since that pretty much exhausts my dark/ music to fight to playlist I really need some suggestions for more songs along those lines. If you have a song or so that you think would fit please let me know. And to thank all you lovely people for helping me out I will put everyone who suggests a song/songs name into a draw and on the 25th of March 2012 will draw two names and offer them each a picture request.~ :star:

Thanks in advance!


:star:The Draw winners are :iconwindalchemist001: and :iconmidknightshadow:!  Thank you everyone for your excellent suggestions and support!:star:

:star:Coming Next:star:Ungrateful Children pg <------I'll update this as I submit:iconplanningplz:

I had today off, so like most normal people I decided today was a good day to re-enamle the bath tub. It's the "Swiss Formula" epoxy kit, should be a snap.

I like to think I am pretty handy, my Father taught me all I know about electrical wiring and I learned structure and drywall from my Dad (I have two Dads, advantage: me for learning more skill sets!)....Sooo, after one coat it is looking pretty grim. I am currently enjoying a victory/epic fail beer while I wait for it to dry so I can apply another coat of the highly flamable/ toxic goop. As an added bonus, no matter how it turns out I'll have to shower at work for the next 5 days as it sets, awesome sauce. But I will prevail!!! Even if I have to learn how to replace a bath tub!

Now for some more randomness, I've been tagged by :iconx-i-l2048: a while ago so here is part two of the tag!~

5. Name one movie that is based on a book you've read that is as good as, or better than that particular book.
The Da Vinci Code

6. Who is one of the most memorable, interesting, original characters you remember seeing recently, whether they were from a movie, TV show, cartoon, or book?
‘Shawn’ from Shawn of the Dead. Just a normal guy, in a zombie apocalypse

7. Name at least two people here on DA who have either directly or indirectly inspired you, whether they inspired your art, writing, or just challenged you to be a better person.
:icond01bcdn3: was the first person to watch me, I was so new to dA and ended up asking a lot of questions, bless you for your patience!
Aaaand everyone who does admin work for groups, I am sure it is thankless but I am grateful for their contributions to keeping the on-line art world spinning~


8. Which do you prefer: vampires, dragons, or giant robots? Why?
Giant fighting robots! What problems cannot be fixed with a giant robot?

9. Picture this: You're trapped in a mansion with a plethora of monsters after you, and you have to fight/sneak your way out. You get one weapon to carry with you; anything you can think of, you get, but only that thing, and only enough ammo that you can carry if you decide to pick a firearm or projectile weapon. What do you choose?
Baseball bat. No need to reload and easy to carry~

10. What is one language that you personally think is really beautiful to listen to, even if you don't speak a word of it?
Polish

Now back to the tub!

:star:Coming Next:star:Feverish pg 15 <------I'll update this as I submit:iconplanningplz:

I've been tagged by :iconx-i-l2048: so here is some random information about me, I will only do the first 4 questions this time and do moar later~

1. What was your very first real fandom?
Gundam Wing, giant fighting robots ftw!:icongundamplz:

2. What is something - movie, book, TV show, music, character, whathaveyou - that you love/like that everyone else seems to hate?,

Badly made disaster movies, notably The Core, where the centre of the earth stops spinning, love it!

3. To turn the previous question on its head, now what is something that you legitimately despise or dislike that everyone else seems to love?

Hot weather. Do not like at all. Thank god it is cool here 9 months of the year.

4. Has something you've written/drawn/made ever wrung a tangible emotional response from you, i.e. uproarious laughter, tangible tears, real anger, etc.?

Sure, mostly I'm HYBRID sugar-fueled/techno powered and that's where all the crack comes from. But if I've got angst I try not to let it go to waste and so I'll let it inspire me in my drawings!

It seems that I am once again busy doing two managas at a time, Ungrateful Children and Feverish!

From Ungrateful Children I get to essentally goof off on paper. With Feverish I get to sharpen my drawing techniques and conveying DRAMA!!!

Please be patient with me as I flip back and forth between projects, they both mean a lot to me so I won't just let them die. Of course I can't draw all of Feverish because I am just one person with a pencil and a limited life span.

Anywho, thank you so much for all of your support, I can't overstate how much it means to me when someone says they like something or get a laugh. It makes it totally worth working hard on tricky angles or reworking dialogue for the kagillinth time.

THANK YOU!!!





























:)
