Description
My Tumblr: [link]I woke up a noon today (yay for not having to head out to work) and I REALLY wanted to draw some Miku and I wanted to try out the ink pen in Sai for the lines... so...
This is what I did today from noon until now. WOOT! I kind of like it.
Miku is (c) Crypton
Sai and Photoshop and Wacom Graphire

Sadly I don't know who Miku is but I LOVED the background!

Miku is a Vocaliod. It's a program that makes music and can sing. There are a few of them. You can learn about them here: [link]
I am glad you like the background. ^_^

Yeah it's pretty cool. There's a lot of songs on youtube. But the quality of the music depends on the ability of the person making the music, so some of it isn't very good.

Did you like it? I hope you found some good ones. It's taken me a while to get into vocaloid because I couldn't find any songs I liked. And lost of the information about the characters for each program is complete fannon because the companies prefer not to give more then an outline of a personality to a character so that the users of the programs can use them as they see fit, so I found it hard to get any concrete information on them.
Then I found the wikia page. ^_^

Ya, I did. Her voice is still a little... robotic, but that's impossible to change I guess!
Less info is good for our imagination, we can create lots of things *-*
What's your favorite song by Miku?

ParallelPenguins In reply to cursedarii [2011-07-04 20:05:29 +0000 UTC]
Yeah the robotness of it does put me off some, but if the song is really good it can make up for it.
Um... I dunno. I am really liking the Gumi song Meltdown, and the Rin Meltdown song. For Miku... I like the Alice in Wonderland themed one. I can't remember the name though.

I'll search for them on youtube!

Okay, I think Rin's version is a looooot better than Gumi's!

LOL... well the one I found that was Gumi I found through a club I am in... um... Gah it was called FRAME OUT not Meltdown. >_<* *facepalm*
Any way here's a link to a journal with some links to some good vocaloid vids: [link] .

Ooooh, this music suits better with Gumi's voice! A LOT better!
I was looking for a male singer, they are rare Oo
I liked VY2 *-* plus he's soooo cute *-*'~

Girl's voice sounds better when it's a little robotic. Like Gumi's voice in Frame Out, she sounds like a real person!

ParallelPenguins In reply to cursedarii [2011-07-05 20:49:35 +0000 UTC]
Yeah. I like Gumi's voice best, but I like Miku's image best. It's hard to find good Gumi songs though, because I don't think very many people like her compared to the others.

Now that you told me about Vocaloid IT IS EVERYWHERE!
I've seen like five Vocaloid fanarts around DA today (from the messages I receive from groups)!
I really liked Riiiiiiin!

Lovely coloring job! I love the background too! The ink pen in SAI is looking kick ass!

Thank you Grim! I've never tried it before... It's a lot thinner then the Pen tool that I usually use so it was a bit harder to colour. But every one seems to like it so I might just use it more.

Oh man! You know I would if I had a tablet. Instead I've got a
mouse that doesn't want to click on stuff half the time so I'm
forcing my hand down on it to click and move. Stupid thing.
If my tablet worked I'd be playing on that.

You can get a bamboo for less then $100 I believe. It's a good place to start. It's supposed to be as good as my graphire, but since my graphire is an old and no longer in production model, it could be better by now.
So if you have the money some time I'd recommend it. It won't make you a better artist or anything, but you already have more then enough talent so you'd just have to practice at the tablet. It takes some time to get used to. I've had my graphire for more then 5 years now and it's taken me this long to really get used to it, but then I didn't use it for the longest time, in favour of my copic because I was frustrated with my tablet because I'd lost the drivers for it so it wouldn't work right. But wacom just put out new drivers for all their products to work best with windows 7 so now I have actual pen pressure, which is really the whole thing I wanted out of my tablet. *phew* Finally some real pen pressure that is actually responsive to how I use my stylus. FINALLY!!

I was looking at a few of them. I'm thinking about getting one for school... but first I need the cash.
Nothing but time and practice will make me a better artist. Also I believe that being more possitive about what I do might help the flow a little but it may also help me to increase my drive to want to be better then myself. I just need to stop looking at Pixiv art. I'm very happy to hear it works for you! I've got a super old 12 x 12 tablet that doesn't really work anymore. It's great for drawing on though.

I don't go to Pixiv very often. I have an account, but I've only posted one thing there. I find I get very jealous of the art on that site too.
Yeah I think you should feel more positive about your art. Because damnit you can out do me in lots of things. Your pics make me jealous some days.

Grim-away In reply to ParallelPenguins [2011-07-05 15:55:50 +0000 UTC]
I posted some stuff there... though it's no where near as awesome as the other pics there.
Eh? Really? I see far too many mistakes with what I do to consider myself that great though. I'm still learning, like many other artists. Though I'm also trying to progress is such little time. I want to finish 1 volume, 1 comic book before I'm 30. It's my bucketlist and I've got a year to do it. XD

You can do it! *routes for you* When you're done post it online. I want to read it. ^_^
I kind of let comics go by the way side for me. I don't have any concrete stories that I want to draw. I have a few ideas, but I can't get them to pan out.

Haha if it's good enough and people can properly follow it this time. I'll try and see what I can do.
I've got this one idea I really want to work on. Make it into an epic adventure or something. If people can keep up!

Well it touches lightly on homosexuality... very lightly though. More like hints so I'm not sure a lot of people will be ok with it.
I really hope to drive people crazy with the "maybe they are, maybe they aren't" scenario though. Like CLAMP! Hahahaha!

Oh that's fine. It wouldn't bother me, or most people I know. There may be some people that it would bother, but screw them. It's not like you are making anything obvious so you can tell them that anything they think is going on is all in their heads so maybe they are offended at themselves.

LOL like Masashi Kishimoto I will deny everything and say it's all in the heads of the people reading it. Haha I like that. I'll keep that in mind for sure!
Ok since I know that you're alright with it, I'll share with you my manuscript and storyboard stuff. XD
