luna entocada roja

Paint tool SAI.
A birthday present for my favoritest cousin, Carlos, aka El Buytre. The weird signs at the top are today's date in the mayan calendar. He follows this calendar religiously and also loves to sing nahuatl healing sings with his goatskin drum :O lol~

"Feliz Cumple" translates to "Happy B-day".

Mori sketch

a really quick sketch I did while waiting for the black slip on my vase to dry today. lol~ Thankfully it was the last layer I needed to put on there.

It's an image inspired by Mori Girl and http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1290582619 which has been looping in my head all day.

Portraits of classmates.

I was waiting for the glaze to dry on my vase in Ceramics class today, so I asked if anyone wanted a portrait. I had done one for a friend yesterday(below), so after seeing that, they all wanted one lol~

Faces from the side



I realized I suck really badly at profiles after drawing some raburabu pictures on valentines. Therefore, I started to practice during my classes. All the faces drawn are real people/characters with the exception of the old man! I just wanted to draw old people.

Valentine's choco

Paint tool SAI
Working on this ATM. Was drawing it while livestreaming! It's a challenge to draw that arm with all the foreshortening and all, but surprisingly I used no references at all.

Love Plusplusplusplus

I managed to get my old livestream working. I drew some in the morning, then drew some more.. special artwork later in the day when I got home.

This Chen was made in 4 minutes: the duration of a chen song.
 
I ate an entire bagrollthing of Ritz.
 
I was feeling superlazy at this point. Quick yuyuko
Some drawings got lost due to my computer crashing. Goodbye, 5AM Yukari and penismonster.

Textures! How do they work?

Paint tool SAI, PS CS2, textures from google search
I wanted to draw something today. I started drawing myself, and was going to make it a cutesy drawing about HOW COLD IT IS. However, I didn't like how it looked, so I messed around til I came up with this mess.

My precious!

Dollfie Dream 2, DDH-01
One of my most prized and expensive possessions: this doll! She's my first and so far only BJD. I don't really have a name I like for her yet, but for now I'm using Mifuyu
Unlike many DD owners who buy character dolls (a fully assembled and painted doll based on a character), I went the custom way for mine. Her head was ~50 dollars, body was 230 dollars,  and everything else ran for about 20-30 dollars each.
Character dolls are insanely expensive, so I went the custom way since it was hundreds of dollars cheaper, and I wanted to create my own doll rather than have a character. Dollfie Dreams are ~50cm tall (that's around 2 feet!) and are made of vinyl, compared to resin like normal BJDs.

Alot of people like to hate on Dollfie Dreams because they're so animu looking, but I think they can be insanely cute if they're painted and dressed right. I've seen alot of dollfie owners who have really creepishly anime dolls.. ;_;

Does anyone else own a doll? Is anyone creeped out by ball-jointed dolls? My sister sure is.
