Some CGs I toyed around with (I don’t really know how to edit/redraw stuff, I just painted over the CGs lol)

I fixed the fixable CGs that Ray doodled all over (really Ray?? =_=) and added some of my own eyes on MC (stupid long bangs always in the way lol)

Already shared on my amino a while ago, but why not here too. Might do some more MC eyes cuz I like drawing eyes =w=

good artist tips

there’s always gonna be someone better than you. try to work less on comparing yourself to their work and instead learning from them and turning envy into a personal challenge for your own stuff. i know its hard, trust me.

the best way to get better at art is to practice. there is no special trick to improving, no secret method. practice makes perfect is a tired old saying that im sure you dont want to hear but unfortunately, its true.

draw as much as you are able to. i wont say draw every day!!! because i know that there are folks that dont have this sort of luxury, whether it be because of physical or mental restrictions, or simply because they dont have time. draw whenever you can and have the strength to. try not to be too upset if you miss a day or a week or even months. shit happens, do the best you are able to.

if you get bored or stuck, try another way. change mediums if you can, flip the canvas, do something weird that you wouldnt normally do. sometimes this is the best way to un-stick yourself from art block.

dont be afraid to ask for help. this is so important! its ok to ask for assistance from other artists you admire (given that they have time to give pointers.) even if asking for help is straight up asking for a redline of your work, its ok to ask for it. improvement doesnt come without outside assistance, more often than not.

references are 100% a legitimate resource. i’m not really sure where the idea came from that real artists dont use references, but its not true. every renaissance painter used references in the form of in-house models. disney artists use references of animals and people to correctly model and then correctly exaggerate their designs. you cant learn to draw the world around you without actually studying it. use references, even if its just google searching.

your art is not an island. you will pick up styles from other people like tape picks up pet hair. its inevitable, and its not something that should be seen as a negative. artists inspire other artists. use your discretion, and study what you like about another artist’s work. every artist’s style is a mashup of a hundred other artists. its ok, experiment.

youre not going to make masterpieces all the time. youre gonna suck more often than not. but youre putting effort into something you enjoy and in the process you are getting better, slowly but surely. you arent going to see your stuff improve overnight, be patient.

please be kind to yourself. you are making a unique form of artistic expression, regardless whether you see it that way or not. youre doing fine, please keep going and pat yourself on the back for getting this far.

Damien and Death, Part 2

Whoever wrote this dialogue deserves all the praise, this shit is meaningful and lovely and actually made me less afraid of death myself.

Vampire Knight x Mystic Messenger CROSSOVER

The idea comes from here  by @victuuri-on-ice-is-gay (Go check her tumblr ! She writes very good fanfics about Mysme and analysis ! >w< )

bnbnlnbal I thought I would never finish this. I drew everyone with the uniform ! I don’t know how Matsuri Hino can do it every time… (Sooo much detailed my god. ) 

I drew Saeyoung, Zen and Jaehee with the idea to when they were younger, (Idk why only them) I think that Saeyoung and Zen were more hostile (Zen would be more like Wild in this case and Zero for Saeyoung)  and Jaehee with her long hair because she doesn’t have to cut her hair. MC and Saeran are the only humans !

*The screencaps are out of order. I just wanted to compare the boys’ grown up and high school selves. Ishigami and Goto look exactly the same…*

Anyway, here’s the summary of the high school event story which got quite long again…

At the start of the story, you were out late the night before with friends, so you’re quite tired. Now you’re out shopping but you keep running into Noir members, namely Ryoichi, Ishigami, Goto and Ren. Shields and Noir are now on friendly terms but you’re still uncomfortable with dealing with them on your own, so you avoid them before they notice you.

You get home and find a letter inviting you to your high school reunion. Then you realize that you’re late, so you stuff the letter in your bag and hurry off to Shields headquarters.

Later, you’re in the canteen at Shields, feeling extremely tired and you can’t stop yawning. You take out the letter for another look. Yamato comes over, concerned by how tired you look. You explain why and also tell him about your upcoming high school reunion. He leaves after a while. You wonder what the Shields and Noir members were like in high school and you fall asleep with that thought…

You wake up and you’re back in senior high! It’s the first day of school and Yamato is your new classmate. He’s also really popular with both the guys and girls in your class. Anyway, you have to stay after school one day to fill in the class diary. Yamato finds you sitting alone in the classroom and comes to see what you’re doing. He remarks that you have beautiful handwriting and he stays back with you to help you complete the diary. Then he leaves saying he’ll see you tomorrow. Your heart goes doki doki~♡

Now you’re on the train on your way home. The train suddenly stops and you lose your balance, luckily someone catches you. You soon find yourself face-to-face with a beautiful prince-like boy, Ren~♡ You are struck by his beauty and can’t help staring at him. He asks what’s wrong. You say he has beautiful eyes, so he steps closer for you to have a better look at his eyes!! So here you are completely entranced by his lovely ‘gleaming, jewel-like’ green eyes~ Then he steps back, blushing, because you’ve been staring into his eyes for too long~ :3c Then it’s time for him to get off. You ask for his name. He tells you and you find out he’s still in junior high. He calls you ‘senpai’ and says he’ll see you tomorrow. You really hope you’ll get to see him on the train again~

Several months pass, you are a member of the student council. Ishigami is the student council president. You want to speak to him after school but before you can, he’s been called away by a teacher. You look out the window and see your classmate, Goto. You’re rather scared of him as he has a reputation for being a delinquent, but you’re curious as to what he’s doing so you go outside for a look. You find him smiling and playing with a kitten! You decide there and then that anyone who likes small animals can’t be a bad person. You call him. He is very surprised to see you. You notice that his hand is injured and insist on taking him to the sick room. He lets you. Goto explains that he got hurt protecting the kitten from a group of older boys who were bullying it. You tell Goto that you think he’s a very gentle person. He is once again surprised. He soon leaves after his injuries are dealt with. You kind of find yourself attracted to Goto…

More time passes, it’s graduation time. Ishigami is graduating and everyone is sad as he was the perfect student council president. You want to go over to speak to him but you trip in typical otome heroine fashion… Ishigami helps you up with cherry blossom petals blowing all around him! XD;; He then says something like how he hopes you’ll take good care of the student council after he leaves.

It’s a new school year and now it’s time for the annual culture festival. This year it’s a joint festival with another school. You meet the charismatic president of the other school, Ryoichi. All the girls in your school are swept off their feet by him! XD

(Edit: Forgot this part!) That Sunday, you’re doing your homework at the library when Ryoichi suddenly comes over to sit opposite you. You feel rather nervous about being so close to him. He then remarks that your homework answer is wrong. After that, he helps you with your homework. When he leaves with a casual ‘see you’, you can’t help but begin to feel quite attracted to him.

The festival is a success. Ryoichi asks you to meet him on the school roof, then suddenly it’s love confession time! He takes your hand and comes closer and closer…

…you hear a voice calling you! You wake up and find yourself back in the canteen at Shields headquarters. Yamato is calling you. You kind of accidentally call him ‘Kougami-kun’ instead of ‘Yamato-san’ which confuses him. You find out that you’re still clutching the high school reunion invitation and wonder if that’s why you had that dream. You also wonder if it’s been influenced by all the shoujo manga you’ve read. Anyway, you think it was a very wonderful dream~♡ End.

writing is either

there is nothing in between.

What girl gamers face This quest seriously infuriated me, but i love that Pixelberry included such an important issue in one of its quests and overcame it in such a brilliant way.

oh Sor, looks like it’ll be a tough road ahead ❤️

Who broke it?

*Eisuke's coffee maker is broken*

Eisuke: Who broke it? I'm not mad. I just wanna know.

Everyone: ...

MC: I did it. I broke it—

Eisuke: No. No, you didn't. Mamoru?

Mamoru: Well, don't look at me. Look at Soryu.

Soryu: What?! I didn't break it.

Mamoru: Huh. That's weird. How'd you even know it was broken?

Soryu: Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken!

Mamoru: Suspicious...

Soryu: No, it's not!

Baba: If it matters, probably not, but Ota was the last one who used it—

Ota: Baba! I don't even drink that crap!

Baba: Oh, really? Then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier?

Ota: I use the wooden stirrers to put back my cuticles! Everyone knows that, Baba!

MC: Okay, okay. Let's not fight. I broke it. Let me pay for it, Eisuke.

Eisuke: No! Who broke it?

Soryu: (quietly) Eisuke, Hishikura's been awfully quiet...

Shuichi: Really?!

Soryu: Yeah, really!

*pandemonium ensues*

Eisuke: I broke it. It burned my hand, so I punched it. I predict ten minutes from now, they'll be at each other's throats with war paint on their faces and a pig head on a stick. Good. It was getting a little chummy around here.

This is it. This is the sum of their entire relationship.

The second screenshot is so much like me it’s not even funny.

My personal prerelease predictions are as follows:

Saihara Shuuichi is evil and the first chapter’s killer. Kaede is going to lie for him and defend him and she nearly fucks everyone over because of it. His victim is Amami Rantarou because he learned too much about him and realized his true intentions. If he isn’t the first chapter’s killer, he’s the traitor/mastermind and he shouldn’t be trusted. Something is totally up with this guy, and not in a good way. To further elaborate on this, look at Amami and Shuuichi’s designs alone. By themselves, Shuuichi appears to be the “evil” one, and it is only because of Amami’s resemblance to Komaeda that people think Amami will be crazy. The game won’t go in the same direction again with a crazed hope fanatic and a detective as our faithful partner. The ship is being set up to be broken.

Everyone is blackened and had their memories erased. They were gathered from all over the country by the government because they escaped their own killing games by being the culprits. They killed someone, got away with the murder, and everyone else in their games was executed for their escape. The government has locked them up together but Monokuma fucks things up and takes over. 

Nobody but Amami has a talent and everyone was given artificial memories to believe they had a talent. These talents are their past childhood dreams that were somehow broken, either with Iruma being unable to invent enough to be the SHSL Inventor, Kaito never becoming a real astronaut, Ryoma having his tennis career broken because of his crimes, etc. It isn’t that they have no talent at all, but that they never became the best at what they did. 

The vine/spiderweb execution is Korekiyo Shinguuji’s execution. The flamethrower bit is not part of it. It will be in a setting representing hell and his crime will have something to do with selfishness and seeing “beauty in hell”. His crime will have something to do with Gonta or Kirumi (but I sway towards Gonta). 

The boo'ing execution is Kokichi Ouma’s execution. The people are a crowd overthrowing their dictator. (Could also be Himiko’s, but I think she’ll be a survivor.) 

Angie Yonaga will kill Tsumugi and use her artistic talents to “fake” a cosplay on her corpse. Most people will assume that Tsumugi put on the cosplay herself, but Angie painted it onto her to confuse everyone.

Amami Rantarou is the first victim. As much as I hate to say this since I love Amami, it seems fairly likely. He’s the SHSL Analyst.

Ryoma Hoshi is a victim. I suppose he’ll have a tragic backstory as to why he had to kill those mafia members, and then he’ll show up dead. 

Survivor Predictions: Kaede, Gonta, Kaito, Iruma, Himiko
