August Art Post/ Update

Update:

Hi everyone! I was quite busy in July as I went to Anime Expo! It was so much fun!! There were some really cool costumes there! I dressed up as Mavis Vermillion from Fairy Tail! I got to go to artist alley and see so many amazing artists!! Ahh there were so many cool paintings, drawings, plushies, key chains, and so much more that were all hand made!! There were a lot of cool shops and announcements for new things like A FAIRY TAIL MOVIE IN THEATERS <3 Except I ended up forgetting and missed it whoops. It wasn't in a lot of theaters though. xD But I'm sure it'll be on their site so I'm not too worried! There was also a booth for copic markers! I didn't expect that at all!! (Copic markers are really good art markers!) There was a little tutorial at the booth on how to use them and a girl helped me figure out what I was doing wrong so I'm trying my best to get better at using them! They're a lot of fun to color with! There was a lot of free stuff as well. o.o My room is full of posters and other random little things. xD One store even had individual trading cards for sale! I got some of my favorite Fire Emblem characters in the trading cards!! They're so pretty!! <3 There was a special booth set up for the 30th anniversary (I believe) of the game series Final Fantasy and I got to watch one of the artists for the games draw! He's such a good artist and the whole experience was just overall wonderful. I would totally go again next year! I'll have a few pictures of some of the stuff I got in a spoiler tag for those interested in seeing it! I hope I didn't nerd out too much! xD That hasn't been all I've been doing though, I got a lamination machine! I made a bookmark for my sister and decided it would be fun to make and sell bookmarks! That's right, I've finally gotten my art on a site for sale!! I'm selling prints, bookmarks, and stickers! I had to get a new printer for this along with a lamp (My room is so dark o.o) and other random art supplies! I hope to make buttons and maybe even magnets someday! Sales have been slow but I also haven't been promoting it as much as I could. If you see a new signature, I've changed my name for that since my old one was sort of taken in most places. I've been working on giant art again as well! You'll see a picture that I'm done yet not done with... I just don't know if I want a background. School starts Monday for me, I'm still homeschooling but I have a teacher I love this year and am so excited! She's so nice and I love her <3 It shouldn't make me too busy though. This was a long update whoops, but thanks anyone who read through it! Here's the art!!

Oh yeah here's some of the stuff I got at Anime Expo!;

IMG_6057 - Copy
Ok so this is a character you can play in the game Overcooked but like there's a level where you make burritos and the ingredients are rice, meat, and a tortilla, so I just kept putting together the rice and the tortilla and was like "THE RICE-RITTO'S ARE DONE." every time I made one. o.o So I drew my cat character holding a ricerrito.

Here's the giant one! It took so long and it is so big that I am sore from bending over to reach certain parts, laying on the floor since it doesn't fit on my desk, getting up every few seconds to reply on my computer, and just overall how long it took and the movement of my arm. It's colored in with pens, some copic and some not, and just. It took forever. I want to add a background but not sure what from that game would be the perfect background. The character is named Eizen and he's from the game Tales of Berseria.

  • @Perpetual_Fighter Ah those were so fun! I got to experiment with poses a bit! And thank you!!

    @EleanorRose Thank you so much! I really did!!

    @prettyredstone OMG yes! Copics are wonderful! I wish I had more I don't have that many right now. Also I NEVER feel like I have the right colors either!! There's only one art store near me so it's really annoying if they don't have it. Someday we will have all the colors!

    they are so expensive too... i think theyre only cheap in japan but like... lol. 
    swear this one art store in my old town (just moved) had the markers for sale for about 4+ each, when they usually go for 7+. i came back and they were 7+ again ;-; how dare. 
    if you want more markers ask for like a 3 pack for birthday/christmas
