I accidentally drew Apollonia in DR style and she looks like,,, a teenager lol.

Youri-naiim is super cute, I'd probably die for him.

It's kinda weird when I talk about my unsubmitted characters, no?
Well, at the moment I'm trying to finish another form. For a boi.
Tbh yes these forms that I'm doing are part of a "series" of forms and you'll probably notice a trend. I'm not ashamed of it except for the fact that it probably gives my plot away very easily. Then again, since when have I been able to do a plot and do it well lol. The answer is Never.

I wonder if some of my characters would protest because of how I name them.
I mean, I often try to find meanings and stuff, but other times it's just literally translated stuff, and other times it's just weird invented names, and other times it's just a name I liked.
Well, I don't think they're ugly names. Maybe they could be better.
I like this guy's name. It's nothing special, so you'll just see when I submit the form. Meanwhile, my mind just calls him "Pure White" (like the color) because.
Ha.

Blindfolds/eye bandages are kinda hard to draw.
I think it's because I'm used to proportioning the face by using the eyes and nose as reference.
So then when I don't draw the eyes (to not leave smudges one the paper) it's hard to do the nose.
Anyways nobody is allowed to see "Pure White"'s eyes except for me. At least not yet :3.

BUT I need to say this
His eyes are very pretty. So pretty, that I can't do them justice, even in digital art.
Offline
Idk maybe they're the only thing that stands out from his design.
Well, I think he'd stand out anywhere. But if you only consider his design, then the eyes are the most attention-grabbing part.

Assigning just soundtracks as character theme songs, that's my hobby.
I can rarely find songs with lyrics, so instead I go for music-only tracks.
Beautiful.

You know, in trying to practice different (dynamic? idk) poses and expressions, I'm hoping to be able to make infobox pictures for my wikia pages.
Infobox pics that aren't just showing the character's face or a static standing pose, but a picture that shows what the character's like. A special pose or something.
There's a W.I.P. I have atm that isn't going to go as infobox pic, but I like the way I made it. Idk if it's called composition or whatever, but at least for my mind it has meaning. Maybe not the best meaning there is but I still like it.
It's of Allen and Dalia.
Idk when it will be finished or even linearted--the canvas is really big and even the sketch is very sketch-ish. Hmmmm.
Yes this should probably go into my other art thread, I know -.-
Offline
Lol do I need to say I don't like Dalia?
I mean I kinda understand her past and stuff and why she acted like that, but I don't like her current self and I never will.
Maybe I just stand her because of Allen?
Offline
At least I hope she's going to come to an end soon
She's interesting to draw because of her dresses, but aside from that, idk.

Second time I dream of Dion having a girlfriend.
Kinda want to kick my subconscious because this "girlfriend" is different than the one I dreamed about the first time. xD
I don't know if Dion'll ever be able to handle romance, but if he someday can then it means he's on a good track?

I wonder if the clothes I give my OCs are practical to use?
To put on... I think most of those can be put on normally.
Are the clothes easy to move in? Hmm.

I've acquired some knowledge about orchids :D.
How much does Germaine know about flowers? A lot more than I do, for sure o.o.
I think she'd also like magentaish bougainvilleas! Those look very nice. Maybe she has some hanging off her roof.
Offline
How much does Specter know about flowers? A lot more than I do, for sure o.o.
Offline
Maybe xD
Idk, Idk a lot about flowers to be honest. I just have general knowledge and even then I find myself having to translate the flower names and stuff into English xD.
Most of what I know is thanks to my mom! She likes flowers.
Like yesterday I heard three hours of an information video she was watching about orchid care and orchid types and that kinda stuff.

Earlier today I was thinking about names and their pronunciations...
Several names of my characters have strange pronunciations just because I "want". Okay, it's not that I just "want" it, but it's just the way I pronounce them. Some of my OCs have regular names that are pronounced the regular way (Martin, Kenneth) but others are regular names in other languages (Franz, Dion).
I tend to pronounce "e"s at the end of names but that's something I try to not do because it's not the way the names should be said. Like, Yvonne's "e" is silent, similar to the final "e" in Germaine and Laurie and Adèle.
Amande should have French pronunciation but I say the "e", so I mispronounce my own girl's name xD.
Then there's other names I invented. Like Dilanne. That's... probably an interesting pronunciation. Kinda sounds like Spanish, but it isn't. Or Youri-naiim. Even saying just Youri is different (it's not "Yuri", its different).

Threads,,, threads,,,
I think I do kinda well with replies (unless I'm too tired or not inspired), but when it comes to making threads,,, aaaah help
Offline
I agree it is most of the time hard to start off new threads
Offline
Yep, mood.

Looking at some posts and I see that while the replies I wrote weren't bad, there's other possibliities that wouldv'e been a lot more in-character.

So, I napped for a bit instead of sleeping till the morning (so sad) a couple hours ago and I dreamed something.
I'm not sure what the setting was,,, but Martin was there. Someone gave him an apple. A poisoned apple. And even though I warned him, he bit it anyways and fainted.
Talk about fairy tale.
Then I was trying to figure out a way to wake him up, bc obviously I was worried for his welfare.
And I don't know what happened next because then I woke up for real.
Offline
Why is there "all hail the apple god" in your siggy. I just noticed it because you brought up that dream
Offline
Oh would you look at that xD what a funny coincidence! I promise it wasn't on purpose.
But it's there because you have to worship the Almighty Apple God ;).
Believe in apple supremacy.
Offline
Adskjfgdlkj thinking about that, how many of my characters like apples a lot?
Several of them, but rn Martin and Dilanne come to my mind first. I think there's at least one more active roleplay character with a love for apples but I can't remember atm.

Why did I design Sollux so she'd look like an almost-adult
She legit looks 21 or so in my most accurate drawings,,,
She's like fifteen or sixteen tho.
By the way, she's supposed to look a bit older than her age but not older than 20.

She also looks too angry in some of my sketches xD
I'mmmmmm,,, not sure if that's accurate. I mean, she only grins when she's around others, but I don't think she's got an angry face when she's by herself lol.
Maybe it's just that I can't draw her with a serious expression very well!
Offline
Hm why do I type Soleil instead of Sollux
Offline
Dion should stop scowling so much or else he's going to get frown lines.

I know Dilanne is a character I've barely used, but I'm not lacking ideas for her xD.
I'm pretty happy with my thoughts! It's like, at last what I had in mind while writing her form(s) makes sense heheh. It's something similar to what happened to Yvonne some months ago :3
Except that since I use Yvonne more, I can think more about how to do her development thing in the roleplay.
For Dilanne, well, I probs need to update her page first. Then I also need to figure out a way to use her more in roleplay threads. I've begun to like her more thanks to these thoughts.
I might have made her too much of a mythical creature though xD and she's like an amalgamation of stories because I didn't want to make her exactly like any specific representation of a "siren". She's not really a "mermaid" either.
Is she more like a monster then maybe? I'm not sure, but that's probably a good way to describe her,,,
