Moon Crisis MAKE UP!

Just messing around.. I kind of really want this as a tattoo - but not drawn like this. Maybe.

SAILOR MOON SUPER S LOCKET YEAH.

Korra

Korra! I just started watching this as I'd heard good things about it and I figured it'd be my kind of show. And of course I LOVED it, so therefore I had to draw her. I drew this one from a picture that already existed - no tracing, just for reference, and I STILL fucked up the legs. I know I should've stopped and fixed them but I was just pleased I got the damn arms right! I can move on to legs with a different drawing. This was fun to do as I made more use of layers (I actually have a 'rough' layer where I drew the outline out in grey) and gradients, so I'm getting there. 

Here she is in just lines before I added the colour. I usually save a new file when I do colour incase I end up hating it.

Squall Leonhart

I was OBSSESSED with Squall/FF8 around the time it was released in 1999. Loved him. I even printed out a picture of him and stuck it on the wall next to my bed. I still have a figurine! But yeah, he was a beautiful moody jerk and I loved the shit out of him.

Ygritte knows everything.

Ygritte from Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire. She says that a lot. Daily drawings have turned into everyotherday drawings...

Also my new skates came today but I think they might be too small :( I know skates are supposed to be snug but these are super super small, and my toes are all scrunched.. I emailed the website and he said to give it a few days so we'll see. Ho hum. But they're SO PRETTY.

Nobody messes with Sailor Jupiter and lives.

Ha, I love drawing like this. LOOOOVE. And the zombie eyes make a return! <3

Still not brave enough to do a full body complete with arms and hands and stuff.. Maybe one day.

Anyway, badass Sailor Jupiter/Makoto from Sailor Moon. I've been working my way through Sailor Moon S lately, as I only watched up to the end of R on the TV many years ago, and oh god it's so brilliant, I'm going to go watch some more RIGHT NOW.

MOON COSMIC POWER - MAAAAKE UP!

Flat flat flat

I HAVE A FLAT. ALMOST OFFICIALLY!

I viewed one today, then thought about it a bit, then applied for it and then GOT IT within about an hour of applying. EXCITING!

Now comes the seeing if I can survive with paying that much rent a month.. It was at the top end of my price range so it'll be tight but we'll see! It's not ready until the middle of next month so I have time to sort out finances and actual furniture (Ikea) but then boom, independent living, like a real grown up. I may get a pet.

But yeah here's me in my super cool new kitchen/living room. Or at least an artist's impression of me.

flats & boys & friends & jobs

Can't decide which one I like best. This is basically me today. Really struggling to find a decent flat in this area for my price range, which is really getting me down.. So therefore I'm thinking about moving away to an area where I CAN afford a place, which means looking for another job which leads to MORE stress because I have no idea if the skills I have are actually useful to anyone. I need the exact job I have now, but somewhere else and for more money! I was thinking about Bristol, because it was so nice there when I visited Anna and Rob - like a city but not really, if you get what I mean? Not London, I don't like London.

My friend has pissed me off and I can't really avoid her so I'll probably just be seething for the next few days.

Oh, and I can't move because I'm too scared to leave the boy. But then I HAVE to move so I can finally get over the boy...

Going to try and draw every day now, even if it's just stupid emo shit like this.
