Description Old art is...MEH. -_-;;

This drawing is dedicated to my dearest Shi-chan! Belated Happy Birthday! I hope you didn't think I forgot your birthday - it's just, I've been very busy at school, and I only got to post this today because of Fall Break. I hope you'll forgive me for my uber lateness again. ;_;

As you can see, I love making my drawings look so light it's boring. And I also happen to heart Namine more than you know, especially with Sora, but I just fail at drawing her. I suck.

Background/Texture on Namine's clothes = definitely not mine.

P.S
To all those tablet users out there: I recently got a pen tablet and it has a pressure sensitivity on it. The problem is, when I use a 1px brush tip on Photoshop CS2, it's too light no matter how hard I pressed my pen. Is there a way for me to draw an uniformed line/pressure or something? I can't explain it well, but if you could help me, that would be very lovely! <3

!!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! ;_______;
I feel so happy to get a present from you. Yesterday I was thinking that it's been a while since I heard from you.
Don't worry about being late because I forgot about my own birthday xD;; You really made it very special to me.
The drawing is really lovely and cute and I like the colors a lot.

About the tablet, I'm not sure what's the problem but maybe it's with the flow or the icon with the pen near the flow setting. I wanted to upload a screenshot but the internet is acting crazy.

A;LDJSALKFJDA;LFD;LF;FHDRATSWHAT THE HECK, I SWEAR I REPLIED TO THIS, I SWEAR I DID. DX DEVART, WHERE ON EARTH DID YOU PUT MY REPLY?!

I...typed a very long response to your comment that day, I'm not sure why it didn't come up when my other responses were there. ;_; I'm so sorry! I wouldn't have known if I didn't check right now. D=

I'll just summarize what I've said back then: THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm really glad you liked this meager gift of mine - I could have done better. ;_; I'll try my best next time!

Oh, about that, thanks! Actually, I figured out that my tablet has its...uhm, "moments", haha. XD;; Sometimes it's pressure sensitive, sometimes it's not. XD;;

*glomps*

(I finally finished working on my new LJ account! )

Aww :hugs: DA is always like that, I really hate uploading my drawings because sometimes you think that everything went well but then you find out that it's not there. xD;;

You know, just saying "Happy Birthday" makes me very happy. I've never receive a present from an online friend before & I can see the effort that you did to only say "Happy Birthday" so I can't really ask for more than what you did. (This is a bit complicated, lol)

I'm looking forward to see you drawings!!

You can note me about your account from here because I'm so excited to see it. ^^

This is the first time that happened to me, it's sad. D=

You know, the funny thing was, on your last birthday? I gave you a Namine picture, too! XD;; I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but who knows, the next time, I might give you a Namine drawing again on your next birthday, haha. XD;;

Still practicing on the tablet because I'm having a hard time looking at the monitor while I draw on the tablet - it just feels weird sometimes. XD But I shall do my best! (I also forgot to say in your Art Meme that I didn't know you know Chibi Maruko-chan! That's, like, one of those early animes I've seen when I was young, haha. XD Odoru Ponpokorin...that sure brings some nostalgia out of me. XD;; )

As for my new account: I already left a comment in your LJ so it wouldn't be troublesome for you. *adds you*

ShiChan00 In reply to pandarot [2007-10-14 14:33:01 +0000 UTC]

xD; sometimes my comment for my own drawings get erased too so I always copy it to paste it whenever it doesn't work well.

Namine is a cute character! :3

Yup, keep practicing but believe me you're going to get used to it soon especially when you know how to use photoshop. My first drawing was done in one layer because I knew nothing about PS and that was the hard part. xD;;

I liked Chibi Maruko-chan because a lot of my family and my friends watched that and yeah it's nostalgic.

Yay~ *adds back*

Awwww so cute! >w< Namine is so pretty (I heart Namine too <333 love for her )
And SoraNami is adorable (He goes better with Namine than Kairi I think )

pandarot In reply to neko-no-hi [2007-10-09 05:26:51 +0000 UTC]

Ahh, thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it, and long time no talk!
As I've said to RibbonBell77, I love her so much~ <3 SoraNami is one of my favorite het KH pairings - playing Re:COM and seeing the additional scene in FM+ only made my love for this pairing stronger, more than ReplikuNami did to me before. XD;;

Funny, because I'm not really a fan of Sora/Kairi, and yet I love Sora/Namine, like...a lot. O_O;; I...personally think they have better chemistry. *hopes she doesn't offend anyone by saying that* Not to mention the angst factor: I mean, the Re:CoM ending and their meeting at KH2...kinda makes me sad. D= It's just sad there's not much stuff of them together in the net... D=

...Err, I think I've ramble too long? ; *got carried away*

*hunts for SoraNami*

You're welcome Yeah,it's been a long time >D

Awww glad to see that other people like her ^^ She isn't so appreciate I think...Too bad,she's a really good chara... I like SoraNami and I like RikuNami too,I can't choose which one I like the most XD Not my favorite pairings,but really goods pairings

I'm not really a fan of Sora/Kairi either xD (it's like CloudxAerith,I'm a little tired of all the SoKai around here XD especially the ones which bashing Riku/Sora ) Namine is a character more interesting and deeper than Kairi...More useful too XDD *run before Kairi's fan kill her* I like Kairi,she's cute,but not as much as I love Namine

Nah,it's fine for me,I like to talk with you

Really? You think so? Thank you very much! I'm happy someone likes my, uhm, "too light" style, for the lack of better word to say. XD;;

And yeah, Namine is really cute - I love her so much~ <3 SoraNami is one of my favorite het KH pairings - playing Re:COM only made my love for this pairing stronger, more than ReplikuNami did to me before. XD;; It's just sad there's not much stuff of them together in the net... D=

RibbonBell77 In reply to pandarot [2007-10-10 01:24:43 +0000 UTC]

haha! i can't really describe it cheerful perhaps? I just love their hair and eyes ^^

I never played KH:COM but I've read some manga of it,and I know that she replaces Kairi with herself in Sora's memories and sora forgets all about her ;_; how sad
I don't rly know much about ReplikuNami cept that Riku tries to protect her. (is that right?)
there's actually quite a number a number of videos on Youtube, my friend made one recently [link]

I'll join that hunt! xD

Ah, thank you! That's too nice of you. It's just that...I'm used to criticizing my own self it's not a good habit anymore. ; I'm trying to let go of that attitude of self-hate/self-consciousness, but to no avail. I'm really sorry if my self-crit is making you guys feel bad - I really do. ;_;

LoL there you go apologizing again! breaking a habit takes time, don't sweat it, just as long as you are pushing foward
It doesn't make me feel bad at all! Please don't worry about it!
You remind me of Ritsu

Uwahhh <3 That's so prettiful!
And it's not boring D:
It's so nice and soft and calming and and and! XD;;;
But seriously, this is really nice :3

For the tablet, I suggest maybe the actual tablet menu/options itself and try changing it in the settings. Play around with the pens sensitivity. If it has that option >w< Mine does, that's why XD

Ahh, thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it. And long time no talk! (Sorry if I wasn't able to reply on your last comment anymore, but I appreciate the fact that you bothered to ask me how I've been! Thank you, and I'm good! Hope you are, too~ =3 )

Oh, about that...haha, as I told *Ondrea-Fireheart, I just realized that the pressure sensitivity of my tablet is quite...how to say it - inconsistent? XD;; I know it's weird, but sometimes, it doesn't have one, and sometimes...not. XD;; Anyways, I'll practice using that from now on...! *raises sleeves on ready* >D;;

Still, thank you for the help!

No problem : DD<33 It's true... It's really nice to talk to you again! And I've been well, but school has been really stressing with the tests and homework and stuff >w< I'm falling behind on my trades like always LOL

Haha, it's ok. That happened with the last tablet I had. But that was only because I bought it for 100 dollars. LOL Well good luck with it!

Ondrea-Fireheart [2007-10-06 22:05:38 +0000 UTC]

Well, you could mess around with the thickness and the color, and maybe even the settings, but I'd have to come over there and see what you're doing to be much help ._.;;

Where'd you get the background? owo I wants.

Also, adorable! <3

Oh! I just remembered recently where I got the background, that is why I wasn't able to put the link over there - which is a shame, really. XD;; It's from hybrid-genesis.net .

Thank you! =3
