My colouring style is really random. Seriously. I never have any idea what I'm doing while colouring. I just play around with the colours until it looks good or until I don't care anymore. WHAT IS REALISM LOL

Btw, I finally designed Miguel's outfit! Which you can't see really well here.

Birthday Pictures

2012-01-22T13:57:00.000+01:00

Now I just have to make a blog entry about the wonderful pictures I got to my birthday! They're so gorgeous that all of my followers have to see them! If they haven't already lol

I'll post them in the order I got them:

First picture is by the lovely Tekuu. I'm so grateful for her interest in my story and characters. She really helps me developing the story with it. And look how cute she drew my precious babies! You always put so much effort in your pictures! Thanks you for this picture!

The next picture is by my long-time birthday present drawer Sherry This picture means a lot to me, because I know that fantasy isn't Sherry's genre and that she had some problems drawing my characters, especially Nashua. I'm proud of you that you didn't give up and drew me this picture. Thank you!

Those lovely chibis were drawn by my fellow fantasy lover Fin! The girl with silver hair is her OC Eryll. She drew them together because they appear to be younger than they really are. This picture is so colourful, I really enjoy looking at it! Thank you for drawing this vivid and lovely picture!

Last but not least this little jewel by Saboten, which I just got two days ago. I don't know why she drew Crusado and Nashua together, but maybe she must've sensed that I really love pictures of those two (even though you can't see it based on my pictures)! And Nashua's so smexy here, ahhhh! Thanks again for this unexpected little gift!

I have to thank all of you again, because with your help I'm able to fill the Crusado gallery even more!

And I'm really happy to have friends who spend their time drawing something for me. Love you all!

Loli

2012-01-19T17:49:00.000+01:00

The awkward moment when you forgot how to colour.

Sexy Glare II

2012-01-07T18:04:00.000+01:00

I really have to draw my boys more often!

Linked/Separated - done

2012-01-07T11:15:00.000+01:00

It's done!! Now everyone can puzzle about the meaning of this picture. lol

Linked/Separated II

2012-01-02T22:10:00.000+01:00

Oh wow, their hair was great fun to colour. I wish I could continue to work on this picture, but I'm too tired atm. My vacations are over gnnnnn

Happy New Year 2012

2011-12-31T00:00:00.000+01:00

Crusado and Briciu are wishing everybody a

Happy New Year!

I know I'm one day too early, but I don't know if I have the time to make a blog entry tomorrow. OTL

Sexy Glare

2011-12-29T11:27:00.000+01:00

What is perspective? Nashua definitely needs more pictures of himself, so yeah... BISHOUNEN TIME!!

Two cuties

2011-12-26T14:39:00.000+01:00

I finally decided what to do with her arms. Special thanks to LYSOPPE and Risto for their suggestions on "How do I arms?"!

Ahhh, I have holidays! You know what that means ... time for drawing!! And I don't have to work on my birthday. Yay~ It's on the 27th btw... lol

Merry Christmas!

2011-12-24T11:03:00.000+01:00

Merry Christmas to everyone! Enjoy this special day! And get many presents! lol

If you're still not in the right mood, listen to these christmas songs I came to like to listen to this year:

"Xmas? I don't know such a thing!" by Hyadain

"Christmas Is The Time Of The Year" by David Pomeranz

"Santa Baby" by Eartha Kitt

Lovey-Dovey

2011-12-18T18:23:00.000+01:00

Crusado likes to cuddle cute things and Briciu enjoys to be snuggled by cute girls.

Shy Smile

2011-12-15T17:19:00.000+01:00

Oh, sweet Luaine.

3DS

2011-12-15T11:29:00.000+01:00

Ohoho, I bought myself a "little" christmas present.

The coral pink 3DS! Aww, it looks so lovely! Now I only need to get a 3DS game.

While playing around with my 3DS I created a Mii of myself. If you have a 3DS and want to have a Kiwi Mii, here you are:

I wish there were more colours to choose for the hair and the eyes... I wanted to make a Crusado Mii, but there's no pink colour available. Very disappointing! sob

Show me your QR-Codes, I want to collect all of my friends Mii's!

Nekkid

2011-12-11T16:27:00.000+01:00

Paho wanted me to draw a naked Crusado and since I also wanted to draw a naked loli, I did it. B-but I'm still not sure whether to upload the uncensored version or not... There are some people who are not that fond of naked underaged girls.

Maybe I'll upload it on pixiv.

Before and After

2011-12-05T10:15:00.000+01:00

I thought that could be interesting for you guys.

Before using Photoshop.

And after.

100 Themes Challenge - No. 3 Light

2011-12-04T13:13:00.001+01:00

No, I still didn't forget my 100 themes challenge. I just needed some inspiration. lol And after 9 months I finally found it!

Omg, it's so shiny desu again. But it fits to the theme so it's okay I think...? And it's not that I don't like it, I'm just afraid people would think I overdid it ~~again~~.

I can't say much to the picture. Believe me it's very random.

Blissfull tears II

2011-11-29T16:44:00.000+01:00

I think this is going to look nice when it's done.

At least I hope so.

How do I arms?

2011-11-27T17:02:00.000+01:00

I just wanted to draw a simple picture of Crusado, but it seems I have a little problem to think of a pose for her arms and hands...

I need to find a way to add them without covering her body too much. Because I like the way it turned out.

Bright smile II

2011-11-22T20:29:00.000+01:00

Done! And I think it doesn't look that bad. But it's quite hard to draw boobs who are not too big... What has become of me?

Okita

2011-11-18T22:37:00.001+01:00

I felt like drawing some fanart.

He's my favourite character. lol

Miguel & Sedna

2011-11-18T11:21:00.002+01:00

Finished the sketch I posted here. I flipped the picture horizontally (if you haven't already noticed lol). I really like the coloration of this picture.

Now I only have to design a final outfit for Miguel.

I also continued to work on this picture.

And I realized that I need more emoticons. But I'm too lazy to do so atm.

Robin

2011-11-15T21:25:00.000+01:00

Listened to "Sobakasu" and just had to draw Robin. (Sobakasu = freckles lol)

Gyon - Speedpaint Video

2011-11-15T16:07:00.000+01:00

I made a little speedpaint video of Gyon. Sorry for the bad quality... The video was corrupted and Paho had to repair it somehow. Unfortunately the quality of the video suffered because of that.

The first part of the video is also missing, I don't know why. I guess something went wrong while rendering. But I hope you enjoy the speedpaint video nevertheless!

Kreyna Fashion - done!

2011-11-13T18:33:00.000+01:00

Finally done! Phew~ Bigger version can be found here.

And here are the boring outlines. lol

Mah boys

2011-11-13T13:31:00.000+01:00

I have to spam you a bit, because I hadn't got the time to do so this week.

First Aid

2011-11-13T00:08:00.001+01:00

Wow, I did this picture really fast!

Maybe because I tried to be not that perfectionist with the coloration like I always am. And I have to say I'm quite happy with the result!

This picture of a ~~cute~~ grumpy guy is my part of an art trade with Fin. Go visit her brand new blog!!! It's full of lovely sketches of her OC's!

She drew me my OC Luaine. Ain't she cute? Especially her fluffly tail! And wow, that's actually our first real art trade, isn't it? Even though we've known each other for quite some time now.

Bright Smile

2011-11-06T16:21:00.000+01:00

Don't mind me, I'm just procrastinating.

Matryoshka

2011-11-05T21:49:00.004+01:00

Shame on me, I actually forgot how much I love him. It's Diego, my favourite male character!

Too bad that his screwed up character doesn't fit into the world of »Crusado« ... But maybe I find a way to include him in the story anyway. That'd be really great, because my love for him awakened again.

Miguel

2011-11-04T21:24:00.000+01:00

Miguel's final design (at least I hope so).

What do you think about him?

Kreyna Fashion II

2011-10-30T16:37:00.000+01:00

All of those details are killing me. Colouring them is no fun at all, especially when I'm not really in the mood to colour something atm.

I really wish I'd be able to change my colouring style. But everytime I try to do so I chicken out of it and add 135465745245 layers and effects and folds and so on.

B-But I won't give up!

The World Is Yours

2011-10-23T17:02:00.000+02:00

Drawing a happy Crusado makes me happy as well.

Blue Eyes

2011-10-18T19:51:00.001+02:00

Just shoot for the stars

If it feels right

Then aim for my heart

If you feel like

And take me away, make it okay

I swear I'll behave

Poser 2

2011-10-11T16:47:00.000+02:00

I wasn't satisfied with the colouration of the hair, so I changed my style a bit again.

It seems I get inspired by pixiv artists more and more, hehe~ But there's still a long way to go till I'm really happy with my pictures...

Oh, I wish there'd be only one picture I don't dislike after a few days...

And because I don't know what else to write to fill this empty space I command you to draw me a little picture of Nashua!!

Poser

2011-10-09T12:15:00.000+02:00

I finally got some time to work on this picture! But I'm slow as ever so it's going to take me a while to finish it.

And here's a bigger part of the picture with Luaine. The whole picture doesn't look stiff like that. At least I hope so...

Yellow

2011-10-02T18:25:00.000+02:00

Luaine again.
Sorry for the boring posts. I don't know what else to upload... And I think a boring post is better than nothing, isn't it?

Blissfull tears

2011-09-28T09:46:00.000+02:00

Just trying out a new angle. I think it doesn't look that bad.

Kreyna Fashion

2011-09-25T19:50:00.000+02:00

Uhm, another picture I'm working on atm... (｡´人`｡)

Amir

2011-09-24T16:15:00.001+02:00

I love how I drew his head so clean and everything else is messy. The rest of him (which isn't shown) is even messier.

And ahhh, his hair is really difficult to draw...

Mirror Of The Soul

2011-09-20T17:34:00.000+02:00

Isn't it interesting how the eyes can change an image? That's the reason I always colour the eyes first.

Haha, as if you can see much difference in this small pictures... (´ ∀ ` );

Le action

2011-09-18T00:11:00.000+02:00

Nashua in action! The pose is still a little bit off. OTL

old acquaintance

2011-09-10T22:21:00.000+02:00

Maybe another character for »Crusado« ... ?

Colouring Crusado's hair

2011-09-09T17:04:00.000+02:00

I did a little video of how I coloured Crusado's hair.

Melancholic II

2011-09-09T14:11:00.000+02:00

Finished Crusado's colouration. Now I only need to do the background. Ahahaha... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...! Hah...

Linked/Separated

2011-09-02T11:11:00.001+02:00

Sedna and Miguel (I changed his hair style).

I can't say anything to this picture, because that would be spoiler-ish.

These days I'm not really into outlining and colouring, so I rather do sketches... I don't have that much confidence in my coloration skills right now. I hope this changes soon.

EDIT:

Seems like it has already changed.

I have no idea for the background. Should I add a simple background or something more complex? Ahh, everytime the same dilemma~

Desert Princess

2011-08-28T22:00:00.000+02:00

Ok, Sedna isn't a princess at all, but she looks a little bit like one in this picture, doesn't she?

What do you guys think about the colouration of this picture? It's my "junk" colouration (= very quick colouration). Well, I think it doesn't look that bad, I just don't put that much effort in this kind of colourations like in my normal pictures... But I'm starting to have enough of my normal colourations. They took too long and I also think they look too clean. Maybe I'm going to stick with my "junk" colouration for a while. Even though I'm a bit worried thata people won't like it.

Please ignore the unclean outlines.

Melancholic

2011-08-27T16:59:00.000+02:00

It's really awkward for me to draw the current Crusado not grinning or smiling... I'm having a hard time to resist the urge to draw her a smiling mouth. Ahhh, what to do~

Drachenjunge

2011-08-24T14:47:00.000+02:00

Here's the chibi of the previous post. It was really funny to draw this little boy, hehe. Maybe I'll draw him again someday.
Aaaaand here's a little WIP of the Nashua and Crusado picture:

Recently I'm a little bit into this "pairing". I enjoy to see Nashua this insecure when Crusado's teasing him. Crusado enjoys it, too.

And because of that I bought a commission from Mizu with this two.

Love Crusado's eyes in there. Some people seem to have problems to draw Crusado's eyes like that, but Mizu did a really good job!

Please have a look at Mizu's commission journal! Her commissions are not that expensive, but really cute!

Result

2011-08-22T20:21:00.000+02:00

I guess the video shows everything important.

Thanks for joing the raffle! Don't be dissappointed, if you haven't won, there's going to be another raffle for sure.

Reminder

2011-08-18T22:20:00.000+02:00

I just want to remind you that the deadline of the chibi raffle is on August 20th. If you didn't already join the raffle, do it now! It doesn't matter if you never wrote me a comment, you just have to be a reader of this blog to participate to the raffle.

And here's a little sketch WIP so that the blog entry doesn't look that empty:

I'm not that sure about Nashua's expression... He's still hard for me to draw. In contrast Crusado was really easy.

Speaking of Crusado... do you remember this little pixel animation? I still like it somehow. lol

50 Readers - Raffle

2011-08-13T12:18:00.008+02:00

Luaine's Smile

2011-08-10T14:09:00.001+02:00

I always start to work on the eyes, because I don't like it how empty the look in the beginning.

Genderbending your OC - The Results

2011-08-07T17:36:00.000+02:00

After a whole week I finally finished the gender bender requests! It was a lot of work, but also very great fun. I just love to genderbender characters! I hope you guys will like my version of your requested characters and you're able to recognise them after their "gender reassignment".

Here are the sketches sorted by requester:

Jull 's Requests:

Uhm, Jull didn't request her OC Juria, but since its her best known character I just had to draw her.

That's Jull's first real request: Odeelya!

Jull also requested characters from her friend Risto. This is Toriki's gender bended version! ~~Shota-Alert OTL~~

Second OC of Risto: Risto!

I drew her way to pretty, I'm sorry! B-but I couldn't help myself. Also, she's not fat at all... Please pretend that all of Male!Risto's fat went into Female!Risto's boobs, or something like that...

Tekuu's Requests:

... especially were great to draw, because she suggested me to draw my own OC's! Ohh, I wanted to do this for a long time...! And what should I say? I love the results. So much.

Crusado ... I'm not that much of a shota-lover, but I want him to be my toyboy. (I also added a gender bended Briciu lol)

This picture of a gender bended Luaine just looks so damn right. For a moment I really thought of changing the sexes of the Crusado-characters for good after I drew this gallant young gentleman... but you don't have to be afraid. Everything still stays the same. But maybe there's going to be a gender bender chapter in »Crusado«.

I imagine a female Nashua as a cheerful and a bit tsundere-ish young girl. I wanted to show this in the picture. Aww, she'd be so cute in the story...!

Saboten's Requests:

Haha, something easier thanks to Saboten's unique hairstyle. In return Saboten's other characters were not that easy for me to gender bend...

T-This is supposed to be Fiete... I had hard times to imagine how he'd look like if he's a girl. My animu-style doesn't do Saboten's characters justice.

... but I do like Peer's gender bended version! It was a bit difficult for me to draw this hairstyle, I couldn't find proper references so I had to draw it from my ~~shitty~~ imagination.

Aaand Saboten also suggested me to draw a myself gender bended, but since nobody wouldn't want to see that (srsyly) I drew Kiwako! (You know that girl who's everywhere on this blog lol)

Granted, not that amazing. Maybe I should have drawn him with dog ears...

Paho's Request:

Paho had only one request: His second OC Nina.

Gorezima's Requests:

Gorezima's mysterious OC Eloy! I immediately knew how his gender bended version would look like!
She also wanted to see her OC Menou - the girl on this picture, but since I don't know that character very well and also had problems to think of a non-gay version of her outfit I decided to draw another character of her. I hope you don't mind...

I don't know if I'm still not allowed to tell the name of this OC, so yeah... You can see the original character here.

Phew, that's it. Nothing more to say!

Genderbending your OC!

2011-07-30T14:54:00.001+02:00

Hey guys! I don't really have anything to upload right now, so I thought of something funny!

Why don't you send me a picture of your character and I sketch a genderbended version of him/her? (It doesn't have to be your own character, it also can be the OC of a friend or whatever...!)

Ready? Go!

Fluffy and warm II

2011-07-24T20:26:00.000+02:00

Finished this picture. I kinda love Crusado's face in here. S-so beautiful. But I don't want to upload it to Deviantart... It's nothing special. Also it's not a very summerish picture. OTL

And I thought of making a little Crusado artbook, but since nobody's going to buy it I guess I can cancel this plan. lol Maybe I'll make one for myself.

Aaaaand here you have a little junk chibi of Crusado~

Fluffy and warm

2011-07-10T18:28:00.000+02:00

Smart as I am I started a new picture. OTL Don't hit me please.

I had an art block or something like that I didn't want to work on the other WIP, so I started this one. It's just a simple picture with Crusado.

Crusado is always great fun to draw. Even though it's sometimes hard, because she's supposed to look young, but at the same time she also should show her mature side. ~~Does this even make any sense to you? lol~~

And I can't bring myself to draw her not grinning.

Crusado WIP

2011-07-01T10:49:00.001+02:00

Gnn, sorry for the lack of updates here...

I barely have time to draw right now. And when I have the time I can't bring myself in the right mood.
So here you have a little shitty WIP of an artwork I'm working on from time to time. It's full of fail, but I don't give a fuck.

Btw, I was bored so I made a Crusado-tumblr. I'll upload every Crusado-themed picture there:

crusado.tumblr.com

Briciu

2011-06-16T16:53:00.000+02:00

I finished the "Epic Crusado" picture! You can watch it here.

And now that this picture is done I can finally start with something new. Here's a little part of it:

Briciu's so cute, isn't he?

Epic Crusado WIP3

2011-06-11T22:40:00.000+02:00

Ahaha, I'm still working on this picture.

I think I didn't post about this in my blog, so... I got a job! Yay! Unfortunately this means I have less time ~~and power~~ to work on pictures...

I'm a bit sad about that, but well... I can earn my own money and don't have to be depressed and ashamed anymore.

Epic Crusado WIP2

2011-06-02T12:55:00.000+02:00

Do you still remember this picture? I finally started to work on it again. I had problems to think of a nice background, but now I just have to finish Crusado herself! (I won't show you the background though, ahahaha~)

From now on I'll try to do more real backgrounds...! I want to get better with them! (≧ロ≦)

Crusado-Commissions

2011-05-31T15:44:00.000+02:00

Some commissions I recently bought. Now my money's nearly all gone. OTL (But I'm happy...!)

by Meago

by Yuki

by Goku-chan

by Nemu-re

If you want to make Kiwi happy, you just have to draw some Crusado stuff!

Srsly, DO IT!!! ε=(`A´)

Kids

2011-05-23T19:42:00.000+02:00

Hi, guys! I'm not dead yet. I ... just don't know what to post. So, here you have a cheap pencil sketch of two little children. Can you guess who those two are? Well, it's not that difficult, isn't it?

Yeah, Nashua und Luaine.

Blanche

2011-05-16T16:57:00.000+02:00

At the moment I only work on commissions or pictures for other people. Well, it's actually no bad thing, but it's starting to get a bit stressful.

This picture is part of an art trade! I hope I'm able to finish it this week, but ... well, let's see.

Nina WIP

2011-05-10T11:06:00.001+02:00

Just a WIP of a commission I'm working on atm. It's Paho's second OC Nina. Yeah, my bf has to buy a commission from me. OTL I'm a bad person.

Those boobs are going to look huge after I colour them.

Favourite Scene

2011-05-07T10:37:00.000+02:00

One of my favourite scenes of American Dad.

"Hm, thats nice. Yeah. Yeah, right there. Take my pollen."

Btw, I like Family Guy better, but American Dad is okay, too. And yes, I've got nothing better to post.

すくみず Love - done!

2011-05-04T11:44:00.000+02:00

It's finally done! After editing the picture in Photoshop I like the colours and the overall coloration. Yay for the advantages of CGing!

すくみず Love - WIP

2011-05-03T17:20:00.001+02:00

I finally started to work on the colouration of this picture. But I'm currently not really satisfied with my colourations... It's so frustrating.

Sedna

2011-05-02T15:19:00.000+02:00

Well... another character for »Crusado«.

Funny Animals 1

2011-04-28T21:36:00.000+02:00

I thought it'd be interesting to share some funny animals I know with you. And with "funny" I don't mean animals who do funny things, but rather animals with hilarious abilities.

Many of you maybe already know it: The Transformer Owl!
(Its real name is Southern White-Faced Owl btw)

I just love its small form! So cute and ugly-looking. Isn't it great how something like that can work? Nature really is a genius!

2011-04-27T14:23:00.000+02:00

Gnn... I already love him.

It's hard to come up with special facial features... But I don't want my characters to look the same! But even mangaka stars like Arina Tanemura seem to have problems with it. lol

I hate it when every character looks like the other. People should learn not to draw the same face over and over again, even it's the simpliest way. It's not enough to give the character another hairstyle.

Ah well, I'm not better, eh? I still have to learn many things. So don't mind my thoughts.

Kreyna

2011-04-26T13:08:00.000+02:00

Maybe someone wondered how a full blood Kreyna looks like... They have also claws on their feet and thus don't usually wear footgear.

I wanted to include my OC Kiwako in »Crusado«, but I had to change her name (there are no japanese names in »Crusado«) and because her hairstyle was too similiar to Luaine's I drew her with long hair. I really like the outcome! But now she isn't really Kiwako anymore...

At the moment she doesn't have a role in the story, but these things are certain: She won't be part of the »Crusado«-crew and she isn't one of the bad guys.

Because I still don't know who should be the villain of the story.

Happy Easter!

2011-04-24T14:50:00.001+02:00

H A P P Y ♥ E A S T E R !

I dressed myself as a Easter bunny! Well, not really ... but I tried my Usamimi on! They are cute, but I'm not confident enough to wear them in public. Fail Kiwi is fail. (And omg picture of myself in this blog!!!)

I drew a little Easter picture with Nashua and some willow catkin. It's not very Easter-ly, I just wanted to draw a subtle picture for Easter. And since there's not really a picture of Nashua alone I chose to draw him.

WIP Yuika

2011-04-19T18:39:00.000+02:00

WIP of a commission~ I tried something new with the lineart of the eyes. I hope it'll come out good after colouring...

The most funny commission are those where I can draw a cute girl! Working on these commissions is more fun than work.

Btw, my commission info: kiwikyun.net

すくみず Love - Outlining

2011-04-17T00:26:00.000+02:00

Outlining is relaxing somehow.

I'm happy right now, because I got Windows 7, a stronger processor and more RAM! That means I can work on bigger pictures from now on.

すくみず Love

2011-04-15T13:09:00.000+02:00

I thought I should draw a Sukumizu picture for my Deviantart group »Sukumizu-Lovers« to do some advertising.

Epic Crusado

2011-04-13T17:19:00.000+02:00

Dunno what to post, so here's a little WIP. I have no idea for a background (like always lol). OTL

Happy Birthday, Gorezima!

2011-04-06T15:25:00.000+02:00

Today's Gorezima's birthday! Happy birthday, my dear!

I drew her OC Eloy for her. I like his design, it was fun to draw and colour!

Miguel

2011-04-05T15:01:00.000+02:00

I just love to colour freckles!

Hm ... who is this guy? Maybe a new character for »Crusado«? Who knows...?

Btw, I made a formspring account for »Crusado«. If you have questions to the story, you can ask them there Crusado @ Formspring. As if... lol

100 Themes Challenge - No. 2 Love

2011-04-01T14:25:00.000+02:00

I bet you thought I had forgotten about the 100 Themes Challenge, huh? But no, I just had problems finding a motive for theme No. 2 - Love. I couldn't decide who to draw and in which situation, but since I've drawn Crusado more often than the other two, I decided to draw Luaine and Nashua.

Here it is! Luaine and Nashua cuddling in the weadow.

Haha, their love is so pure. And they're no couple, they're just loving each other like siblings do (in a non-incestuous way), because they know each other since their childhood. Well, Luaine secretly loves him more than just a sibling. But Nashua is too dumb to ever realize it.

I like this picture. It's so peaceful and innocent~

Rolling Girl

2011-03-24T13:51:00.001+01:00

I just love cosplay videos of Vocaloid PV's! I find them really cool, especially when they're accurate.

A few days ago I found a cosplay video of this Vocaloid PV:

And here's the cosplay version:

The only thing I dislike in this video is that their eyes are too much painted. Even the guy's. OTL
But I guess they did this, so that you can see their emotions better?

Luaine by Sakura

2011-03-23T14:29:00.000+01:00

Sakura @ DeviantArt || YouTube

Ow, I guess I'm started to get addicted to buy commissions. But it's the best feeling ever to see pictures of your OC's by great artists... ~
And because no one's drawing them for free I have to pay for it! Srsly, I wish I were popular enough that people would like to draw my OC's, but well, you can't have everything.

Sakura recorded the drawing process of Luaine. As you can see she drew the whole picture on (almost) just one layer!

Haha, you can see my reference pictures from time to time...

A Handful Of SHINY DESU

2011-03-18T13:33:00.000+01:00

I quickly coloured over the sketch and put some shiny desu onto the background.

I'm currently working on this picture. I wanted to draw something smaller and easier to relax myself a bit. lol

Ahh, I still need a name for this animal. It's so inconvenient to call it "animal" or "mascot" all the time. It's a male btw.

And I should draw the other two more often. There are so much pictures of Crusado, but so little of Luaine and Nashua.

And look what I've got!

Crusado, Luaine and Nashua! DON'T THEY JUST LOOK GREAT?! /capslock

Maroni is so kind and is offering cheap sketch/lineart commissions which proceed she's going to donate to the conflict areas in Japan. Because I adore her pictures and -of course - wanted to help I commissioned her right away!

And I'm glad I did. Luaine looks so beautiful and Nashua is so manry, hrrr. And Crusado actually looks like a kid for once!

Ahhh, I can't stop looking at it!

Onsen Picture

2011-03-17T18:37:00.000+01:00

As the post title already implies, the onsen picture is finally done! And here it is!

Oh holy lord, it took me so much effort and time. OTL How many times I nearly cried, because the picture didn't look like I wanted. It was really hard, but I didn't give up and maybe that's one of the reasons I somehow still like this picture. I'm proud of myself, because I finished it even though I had many problems with it. And it's not like that I think I completely failed with the picture... (I'm just embarrassed by the background)

I also learned a lot of things so maybe I'll be better at backgrounds next time. I really hope so. OTL Below are some WIP's.

PS: Thanks to Lysoppe I know now how these onsen monkeys are really called: Japanese macaques or just snow monkeys!

Polka Dot Ribbon

2011-03-16T15:37:00.000+01:00

I spent some money on kitschy jewellery!

A cute ribbon ring!

Isn't it cute? Awww~ I so love ribbons and cute stuff like that. Too bad there rarely aren't any shops who sell this stuff here in Austria (or I just don't know them OTL), so I have to buy them via online shops. Which isn't that bad, but I enjoy "normal" shopping more.

I also got it in red!

I bought those rings from San Smith's etsy shop San Made.
Check it out!

Twin Tail

2011-03-12T17:15:00.002+01:00

Experimented a bit with the marker and the brush tool in Paint Tool Sai. They're quite hard to control for me.

Reshiram

2011-03-11T19:07:00.001+01:00

Yay to german Pokédex entry!

Yesterday I caught Reshiram! Yay!

I only needed two ultra balls to catch it. At first I was really surprised by that (I don't want to know how many ultra balls I needed to catch Ho-Oh in HG... OTL), but then I saw that Reshiram's capture rate was quite high for a Legendary.

When I think of it that's no suprise, since it's necessary for the story to get it. I wonder what would've happened, if I didn't make to catch it...?

Well, I don't want to spoiler too much, but I have to say that the story of Pokémon Black/White is really thrilling! Thanks to that I got the urge to buy Pokémon White as well.

Btw, my Reshiram is now called »Schneeweiß« (= Snow White). Gay name is gay. lol But I like it.

Nostalgia

2011-03-10T20:10:00.000+01:00

Crusado as a child. I love to draw dresses like that.

Happy Birthday, Mizu!

2011-03-09T14:14:00.000+01:00

Today is Mizu's birthday. Go and congratulate her!

Shown on this picture is Mizu's UBF-Character Mizu.

Monkey

2011-03-08T16:03:00.000+01:00

I started to hate the Onsen picture. But I force myself to finish it anyways!

Here's one of the monkeys who don't look like monkeys... Well, it's a fantasy world, maybe the monkeys in this world look like that.

Got'cha!

2011-03-04T11:35:00.000+01:00

Today was the release of the german version of Pokémon Black & White! And guess who was the one who went to store right after the opening time? Yes, me!

And here it is.

I also used the chance and downloaded Celebi (the Celebi tour was held in the same shopping centre). I already played the event with Giovanni.

In the toy store where I downloaded Celebi there already were some nerds with their DS'. I wonder if they skipped school?

When I bought the black edition there were a man and a woman in front of me at the cash desk. They bought two white and a black edition and the guide book. I knew there were some kids who'll send their parents to buy the game! lol

Well, I'm off to play now!

Btw, this is my 100th post! Yay! I want to thank all of my followers and comment writers. Thanks, my dears! I'll try to answer your comments from now on! Yatta!

Hair

2011-03-01T13:44:00.000+01:00

It's hard for me to draw hair detailed like that. But I want to get used to it, because I always have problems with Crusado's hair.

Money

2011-02-28T13:17:00.000+01:00

Do you guys want to know what I do with the money I earn with my commissions? Well, mostly I'm going to spend this money on commissions. Like this one for example

A picture of my OC Crusado! I just love to see "fanarts" of my own characters. I love it so much that I'm even willing to spend little money on it! I'm always looking for good artists who offer cheap commissions (but their slots are always full! Gnnn ). I'd also do art trades, but mostly I'm too shy to ask. OTL Ahhh, whatever.

Recently I bought other things from my money. Things you can actually touch! Like this wonderful artbook

It's a Touhou fanbook made by the great Namie-kun!

I'm not really a Touhou-fan, but I adore Namie-kun's colouring style and her beautiful backgrounds (and this fanbook is really background-heavy!) so I just had to buy it. Look at her adorable art and you know why!

Beautiful, isn't it? I hope I'll get some inspiration for pretty backgrounds by looking at those beautiful pictures.

Additionally to this book there was a cute suprise in the package.

A fake newspaper page from Gensokyou! There's a report about Cirno on the other side. I find that's a really nice idea, isn't it?

Another item I recently bought was this adorable little thing

A Crusado charm made by Popsiclette! Check out her art, it's super cute! Crusado fits perfectly to my light pink cell phone. lol

And finally something I didn't buy from my commission money. lol

Actually I'm not really much into stuffed animals anymore, but I couldn't resist its cuteness. I dunno why. But I still need a name for it. A girl's name ... something italian maybe. And I have to draw a gijinka of it.

Oh, long and senseless post is long and senseless. Sorry~

Queen WIP

2011-02-24T15:12:00.000+01:00

WIP of a commission I'm working on right now. The lineart is going to be really detailed. But I got money for it so it's okay. And it's not like it's no fun, hehe!

Mascot

2011-02-22T17:20:00.000+01:00

I created a ~~mascot~~ fantasy animal for my story »Crusado«, but I still need a name for it and its race. Ahh, it's so difficult to come up with names... So if you have suggestions for a name, feel free to comment!

Free chibi for Gorezima.

His hair was quite a challenge, haha. I hope everything's alright with how I drew him.

Hot Spring - WIP

2011-02-19T01:16:00.000+01:00

I'm currently working on a big picture, and here's a little WIP out of it. Due to commissions I still have to draw I can't finish it right now, but I try to work once in a while on it. Today I did the linearts and the flat colours of the three characters which are to see on the picture. You can see one of them here. It's Luaine! She's such a cutie, isn't she? Love her hair in there.

Hair colours fit my blog very well. lol

Lovekiller

2011-02-18T14:55:00.000+01:00

And here's the finished picture!

I'm quite satisfied with it. It was fun colouring it and thanks to Gorezima's character explanations I was able to think of a pose very quick.

Thanks Kathie, for commission me! I was very happy that you like my art enough to spend money on it. I hope you like this picture. I'm going to upload it somewhen next week on DeviantArt and Animexx and if you like I send you the original-sized picture per email.

Next is chibi Aaron! Oh, I'm so looking forward to draw his hair.

Just a WIP of the commission for Gorezima I'm currently working on. I dunno if I'm allowed to tell something about the characters, so I keep my mouth closed.

Valentine's Present

2011-02-15T14:17:00.000+01:00

Look, what I got for Valentine's Day from Paho!

Dun dun duuuuuuuuuun!

The Trésor Perfume!!

I totally didn't expect that he would buy me such a thing to Valentine's Day. It's not that cheap...

I always wanted to have this perfume, because my aunt uses it and it smells so extremely good. But because of its high price I could never overcome myself to buy it...

And now I own it!

Yesterday I sprayed a little bit on my wrist and I had to smell on it all evening. I'm really happy now.

But I'm afraid that I won't use it that often, because I don't want to use it up...

Patsumi

2011-02-14T14:00:00.000+01:00

Another drawing video.

Because it's Valentines Day I drew Patsumi for Paho. The picture itself isn't Valentine's-themed, it's just a little present.
