So....hows it goin...


ok so ya im not dead...fortunatly :] but i do realize that i haven't been updating too
often nowadays...or well ever since Geek Kon ended. but i must tell you guys that i had a wonderfull time at Geek kon there were its ups and downs ^^'
I would like to apologize to ~DarkMousyLoverHaku and friends for dealing with my...uhh...misshap on sunday of the con, i dont mean to seem like such a depressed fool ^^
but ya i rly didn't get anything (props and costumes alike) 100% finished for Geek Kon, and if you went on Saturday u might of seen my friends and I sitting in the lobby doing some finishing touches on our costumes, we pretty much took as much advantage of our 2 and a half hour drive as we could by trying to finish things up but we ended up doing that at the con ^^'
Friday we got there pretty late, due to traffic and it was pretty useless cuase the Vendors alley closed by the time we got there, so all we could really do was act like fools in the lobby, and i must say my Ash cosplay was so FAIL! i didnt have the hat the right wig or the gloves, so ya it made me actually uncomfortable wearing it cuase i felt so ashamed XD
Saturday like i said half the time was spent in the lobby putting finishing touches on my costume, but before that i had met up with ~sydsnap to give her the costume i have commissioned for her, and I have to say *pedo mode*
I Thought it was so adorable how happy and peppy you were! Its that kind of enthusiasm that makes the world go round girly ;D I may not have 100% completely finished it but itleast it fits right XD and it relieves me that your sending it back so i can work on it more TT-TT
But it was so nice meeting you i hope we'll be able to get the chance to hang out at another con sometime! and after that!
I found the Code Geass cosplayers i had talked to on the forums and we got some good pictures together. Only our private photoshoot with the photographer went down the drain due to swine flu ;.; But it wwas seriously cool meeting them and it was a first for me to be in such an amazing group cosplay ^^ also wat really made my day was while i was walking around by myself, one of the judges for the cosplay contest came up to me and actually recommended that i join the masquerade, i was pretty much in aw and could help but shamelessly bow down to her when she said that XDD but ya i took her advice and joined in the masquerade. I didnt win anything but i can say i have a lot of fun ^^
Sunday, was artist alley day, and the good part of it was that i got to hang out with Bianca and friends, bad part i only sold one commission and cried becuase of it ^^ I just lost my cool and was also running on only about 7 hours of sleep throughout the whole weekend, but im cool nows ^^ theres always next time :]



Also you guys Im looking for someone that maybe would like to join me in some K-On! cosplay ^^ I'm planning on cosplaying Mio Akiyama (Ending version) I pretty much already have a Yui, and a Ristu, all we need is a Mugi ^^
but this wont be until Anime Milwaukee :]
If you would like to join my friends and I with this cosplay but for some reason cant make the costume your self I'd be more than happy to commission it for you ^^

so thats it for now guys bai bay for nows!

OKOKOK!!!! i know i havent made an update since liek FOREVER!!! but its becuase I've been so
busy these past 2 months both with school and getting ready for Geek Kon.
So I'll be getting to GK tomorrow at around 5:00 and stuff I'll be cosplaying Ash and Saturday Suzaku, sunday Haruhara Haruka.

But i have a feeling I wont be getting too much sleep for the next few nights becuase of the fact that i have litterely only one costume completely finished....so ~AyikoTheDemon and I will pretty much be pulling all-nighters getting our costumes/props finished...I got so busy with school and everything that i had no time to do anything related to GK stuff so i really had to cut it close. I'll still be in the Artist Alley on sunday selling stuffs and if any of you are interested I'll be selling and Kaname Kuran costume that I bought online like last christmas that doesn't fit me that well. so come and check that out too. umm... um... so ya...
OH!!! on Saturday I'll be hosting a Code Geass gathering at the con, so anyone interested can come ^^ so ya... thats about all i have for nows... Im really tired and i should get some rest cuase i have a big day ahead of me ^^
cant wait to see

~DarkMousyLoverHaku ~sydsnap ~the-red-touch :devlaglase:

sorry if i missed anyone... its kinda late and im tired as hell |D

ok good night ppls

Ok so the kind of commissions that i had planned to do might be a little much for me and I'd feel a little bit guilty if u were to pay me before i even started on the commission.

So for now I'll start over on small easy to do commissions! and cheap ones at that!
So how about just linearts for now and I'll do the bigger stuff once i actually have time and money ^^'
But i can eaasily do small full body linearts of watever character(s) you want for lets say $5 for each character?
sounds easy and cheap right ^^

So if you'd like one of either ur own OC or actual anime character than send me a note and I'll give you my paypal account then. And i'll only take Paypal nothing else plz ^^
Plz title the note as $5 Commission so i dont get confuzzled ^^ these will be something that'll draw out in idk within an hour then I'll have my buddy Eva (i luv u btw ;.; for letting meh use ur scanner)scan them in and you'll be able to vview ur commision on my account, probably the next day. ^^
so ya thats all for!
OK NEXT JOURNAL UP WILL BE THE FEATURE JOURNAL!FINALLY ;.;

Needs Money!
I know this sounds SOOO DESPERATE! but I just hate having to borrow money from my dad all the time, so i think its about time i start doing commissions! The thing is you guys havent exactly seen all of my best art, so its kind of hard especially since my scanner still infact isnt working!
So all these commissions will be done traditionaly using either watercolor or Colored pencil & ink. I dont do photoshop, or anything thing like that. so deal with it! LOL
As for pricing... seeing as i am in dire need of some money these might cost around $30+
I wont take sketch or Colored pencil & ink commissions at the moment cuase i dont have any of the right paper for it atm. so for now i'll be taking watercolor commissions.
But I guess I will take Coloredpencil & Ink... but only if your willing to pay then wait quite a while for your piece to be finished and sent >__<
Her are some examples of some pieces that Im either currently working on or are already finished with that I havent uploaded T___T

so i hope that'll spike ur guys' interests at least a little bit |D

Commission Rates & Info
1. I'll take anywhere from OC's, actual anime characters, and i guess I'll take yaoi and yuri...|D But plz if you order a yaoi/yuri commission I dont want to have to be drawing stuff that'll make me uncomfortable so keep it PG13 XDD
2. I wont take deadlines. period. I have a lot of other things i need to get done so i dont want to add more to that list.
3. I only take PAYPAL! and If i dont recieve ur payment within 5 days then ur order will be cancelled, and replaced.
4. If you'd like to order a commission send me a note titled as "Commission"
5. Send me reference pictures, I dont want you to complain to me becuase maybe i got the eye color wrong cuase you didnt send enough reference pictures.
6. You guys know the copyright rules and such ^^ so i wont explain that here! cuase you guys should know wats right and wats wrong. (a.k.a dont edit, copy & distribute, these works immediatly belong to me upon creation etc. etc...)
7. If you are FOR SURE! going to Geek Kon this October, and order a commission from me I will delete the cost of shipping & handling, and hand the commission directly to you upon meeting at the convention. And if you ask politely I will sign the piece for you ^^ AGIAN THIS IS IF YOU ARE 100% GOING TO GEEK KON THIS OCTOBER!
If you dont end up going to Geek Kon, becuase of certain issues, I will send ur commission immediatly after Geek Kon and Shipping & Handling will be free ^^ (just becuase Im nice |D )

Updates
So we've finally made the final arrangements for Geek Kon, and it just so happens to turn out that instead of renting out a hotel room, we're going to be driving back and forth back and forth back and forth BACK AND FORTH ALL WEEKEND QAQ
I was rly looking forward to staying in a hotel with my buddies but NO!! cuase Ethan has to be a GUY!! and terrible parental units do not approve of this >[
I just cant wait til we're legal then we can do watever we wat with our fucking lives ^^
So we will be going all three days but Friday we're gonna be getting there late becuase parents dont want us missing school for something like this...i swear to god if i dont turn 18 soon im gonna end up killing myself }|[
So we'll be at the con probably around 4:00 or 5:00 somewhere around there.
I just hope we dont miss the pokemon gathering ;__;
and we'll be there all day Saturday and Sunday ^^

also one last thing
Cosplay on Hold
Ok so this summer I've had more than enough time to think a lot of things through, like whether or not i should continue cosplay. And unfortunatly after Geek Kon I'm putting away my sewing machine, and wont continue making anymore new cosplays until after highschool. Cuase right now i can tell junior year in highschool Im gonna need to focus on my future, and sadly cosplay will just be getting in the way. I will although still go to Anime Milwaukee 2010 and Geek Kon 2010 but probably just to be in the Artist alley nothing more. and depending on how we're doing on money im probably either going to go just on Saturday or saturday and sunday.
I'll just be bringing back old cosplays (not that i have many anyways)
so that is all for now u guys ^^
bai bai
