And the World Keeps Turnin’ All Along Without Me…

Huuuu. I’ve no art of my own to post this time, I’m sorry. But I thought I’d take a little time to thank (once again) the super sweet amazing and wonderful people who have taken the time to give silly and undeserving me a bit of themselves. THANK YOU SO MUCH~!!!! :D And thank you for helping to make silly piggy feel appreciated yesterday (piggy day). I really really am grateful~!

So anyhow, on to teh artses~!
porku_rosekiss
RoseMarie from Suichi. :D So awesome to see her like this and in his style~!! I want to color it. <3


Birthday Present OC – Rose by ~afuji on deviantART
Does anybody know a good time (of year) to visit Japan? I want to go fairly soon and visit Afuji, but am not sure when. Thank you so much for this love. It was a huge surprise.


Doodle Request – Patchoulli by *Cruzle on deviantART
A sketch request from my dear Cruzle. :D I can only hope to be as varied in art as she is. *sigh*


Oh, right. She likes me. by ~kaiousei on deviantART
In doing an art trade with Kaiousei, my beloved, I asked for two of my favorite characters from her trilogy of novels. I’ve yet to finish my half. *sob*

Neko Ewen wrote a story, Dandelion, for me LOCATED HERE. Please do check it out. It’s a short read but OMFG AWESOME~!!! It really made me want to draw lots of pretty things. Mwaha.

__Near_Heaven___by_DazedPink
Another art trade, this time from DazedPink who is so super sweet~! <3 (again, I've still to reciprocate, eek~!). I'm SO juiced to be getting the original art. :D Please check out the full size version HERE.

Today, though a few people are going to scream about it, is an official piggy day off. My brain needs it. ^__^;; Though it didn’t know that until I woke up this morning. No more internets, no more drawing commissions/freelance, none of that stuff (though there will probably be lots of the watching of How I Met Your Mother, hee hee). Just me, my *own* arts, and probably lots of cleaning. Because oh good gosh my poor little house needs it.

Take care folks. Enjoy the art~! <3

Punch in the Face…

…is kinda how I feel about now. *lol* I’m hoping it’s just allergies and that it’ll go away when I wake back up in a few hours. Buuhuuhuuuhuuu. Oh, and it’s spider season again. Ew.

Probably the last post for a couple days. :P Need to finish up some other things and blablabla.
Love~!!! <3

Oh~!!! And thank you to thouse of you who sent me well wishes the other day. ^__^;; I’m not feeling as emo as before. Thank to you~!

pickles…

There’s a huge trouble sometimes with working with certain people (and I say this not to generalize, but to be nonspecific), and working ‘freelance.’ It’s called payment. Or sometimes lack thereof. The only thing stopping me from going and breaking knees at this point is a passport, and the fact that I haven’t done the work yet, because they haven’t paid me on time…..

It’s called a contract, people. >:/ Let’s try to stick with it.
And I am quickly understanding the concept of ‘terminating your bad customers.’

PICKLE~!!!

Just Like You…

I’m just going to blame this crazy overwhelming EMO-feeling on my being extremely tired. Yes. Because I’m not going to think about stupid things…at least not right now. XD Yeah, it’s nothing a good night’s sleep won’t fix~!!

When I was little, I was never allowed to draw like this. You know, the ‘childish’ way of drawing. Because I showed (small amount) of aptitude, I would get yelled at for having things be ‘too simple’ or ‘not good enough.’ How do you tell a child that their artwork is not good enough? =3=;; So it’s kind of cathartic to sit and do it now. *lol* (was too lazy to grab my tablet).

Because he used to raise pigs, a good friend of mine once told me that when they’re not happy/healthy that their tails will droop and not be curly. Yay random trivia.

A random pic for my friend Ewen. :P Kurumi is so much fun~! I hope that you don’t mind me drawing her like this, dear. :3~ Also uploaded a pic over at DA for Suichi:

Maniac… by *bybystarlight on deviantART

And so now I leave you with some more tunes:

Please be well, guys~! You’re awesome and piggy cares very much for youuuuuu. <3

Sora mo Isogasii…

IMG01103
So I’m like a total jerk and staying up really late right now trying to finish up some presents and work and stuff. Bad piggy for leaving things to the last minute~! And then one of my favorite Suneohair tunes comes on-Sora mo Isogasii. And then, outside, it started pouring rain~! ^__^;;

Odd weather aside (it was well over 100F today, and now rain? wth?), it was unexpected and neat. The type of thing that makes a silly piggy happy. I wish more people knew about Suneohair. His music is mostly really mellow, quirky and….kind of off beat. As well, he did two of the three ending theme songs for the HachiKuro (Honey and Clover) anime. Speaking of HnC, WHYYYYY can’t I find any more of James Wendt’s music? He was a vocalist from the live action movie’s OST (I’ve yet to see the live action movie or drama *sob*). OMFG I COULD MARRY THAT MAN’S VOICE ALONE FFFFLTOUGSLFDGKJ~!!!!!!!!!11@!!! But no. Nothing. No more dice. *cry*

Anyways, here’s the previous tune I was listening to. It’s really neato~!

GO FIND SUNEOHAIR MUSIC~!!! You won’t be disappointed. :D

Agh, ah gawd. I can’t spell this late at night. >__>;;
Edit: Wahahah~!! Now I’m all nostalgic for HnC stuff. Will probably not get any sleep due to re-watching the anime for the billionth time. LOVE~! <3

Technical Difficulties…

Had a lot of comments going into the spam filter inadvertently and now it’s irretrievable. I’m very sorry if you left a (valid) comment or something here and it got eaten up~! The problem *should* be fixed. >__>;;;;

Geh~!!! SO much stuff to dooooo~~~~~! *rush rush rush*

Sometimes it’s just good to say the things you really feel instead of playing silly games. :3

Starla, a relatively new (though also neglected) ori-chara of mine….throwing one of her tantrums? Hmmm. I’m pretty pissed at myself for taking so long to do such a poor sketch. Methinks I will try not to stay up so long past my bed time to draw. I think………I hope? O__O;;

I heart undies~!!! Especially frilly, ribbony ones~! :D

****
And when you can, tell the people you care about that you do. Don’t make them assume. :) It makes a world of difference~!

Angel’s Don’t Fly, Love Doesn’t Exist…

Just some ‘calm the brain’ scribbles. ^__^;;
I almost never draw Pan like this anymore (let alone at all, poor girl). Cut ears, cut hair, cut wings….I never made it far enough into her story to explain everything and all the changes she has to go through. No worries though. It’s a really stupid story~!! What was I thinking back then? *lol* But then again, that was way before blue haired elvish angels were popular (on the webcomics scene). XD

Personally, I never really liked Pan. Her personality, I mean. She’s an idiot~!! Of course, she learns a lot and toughens up along the way, but there’s nothing really standout-ish about this ‘hero’s journey’ and that’s probably why I ultimately quit drawing Elegy. It was a really stupid story~!!

I still think about it a lot though. And now, over the years its become this giant behemoth of a story in my head; I KNOW I’ll never get it out now in a form different from random illustrations or sketches. No worries. :3 Most all of my other ’stories’ are tied into it as well, in some way or another.

Ohhh, poor Gabriel~!! You were always my favorite but……haven’t drawn you in so long I forget what you looked like~!!! *sob*

…I need to fix the RSS feed thingie. Woops.

Bucket o’ Neurosis…

Second attempt at a gift for my dearest Kaiousei. (I love you so much~!!)

These are the Days…

Hnnn, I wish there was an Emo-snooze button. ^__^;;

I saw a shooting star the other day. It was huge.
