Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

Advice and TutorialsSo this First Advice and Tutorial Journal will be on General Anatomy and Such. The second will be up to you so please comment below in what you think the next Advice and Tutorial Journal should be on.

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

Feature and Other Stuff

Journals / Personal

Mood: Tired
Listening to: A Million Ways

Sorry if I seem like I'm spamming journals, you guys get enough journals everyday.  D:  So I try to space them out a bit.

Anyhow, I really feel like you all should go visit ~robotfish.  Her cute, storybook type art is so appealing.  She paints with openCanvas and her brush strokes are so alive. Since I consider oC to be really hard to paint with, I admire her skills even more.

Some of my fav works by her:

Fish are Fashionable

Her very first deviation, I think it's quirky and fun-  it lets you know right off the bat how imaginative she is.

Re-activating Battle Mode

I simply love the composition and colors! They take you in and keep you there; I could stare at those lovely cool hues balanced by warm skin tones for a long time.

Here She Comes

A brilliant use of complimentary colors, the orange and green combo usually doesn't go over too well with me, but ~robotfish makes it such a charm!

Finally:  Kaiba

Just scroll down to read my comment, you'll get it.  XD  Anyhow, spread the word about the anime Kaiba!  I'm gonna try and find it tonight to watch it, it sounds really good so I recommend it on the behalf of ~robotfish!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alright, I totally expect a lot of nice comments and +friend for ~robotfish soon.  *ahem*

Well, that's pretty much it.  I wanted to feature her for awhile and trust me, I have loads other super amazing, no-attention artists in my watchlist, and eventually I will feature them all!

One at a time is better for now though, I don't have a subbie so no thumbnails, and I think it's nicer to feature one-on-one.

I'm really tired today so, I think I'll answer comments and comment on deviations tomorrow.  Besides, I have one more contest entry to work up on plus *Kaze-Hime's artbook and a commission.  Busy busy busy!

I'll end on this note:  Please please come talk to me!

I really enjoy interacting on this site and I love making new friends.

See you around!

Good Luck on your contest entries!
My Sophomore Year starts August 15 but we just got our schedules mailed out and I start marching band camp at my school tomorrow Dx

~pseudolirium Jul 27, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

Thanks! It's actually just one contest entry for now, =kankakanka's. It's due on Aug 1

. Once again you see me doing stuff at the last minute. I also wanna do =Kaze-Hime's ACG contest later, but that one is soo hard...an international contest. D:

Nice, you just start a week later.

I got my schedule too, I hope I see more friends with the same schedule as me.

Ah, marching band camp! Good luck with that. <3 I'm sure you'll have lots of fun.

~ilykmuffins Jul 27, 2008

Procrastination FTW

Says the one who just finised her Summer Reading Project thing

Haha yes. Facebook is lovely for finding out who has the same classes as you 8D I'm happy because two of my friends are in my first hour so that'll be cool.

Oh yeah, I loooove marching in 90 degree weather with humidity xP Our slogan is "Join Maching Band! We have free Skin Cancer!"

~pseudolirium Jul 27, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

Ahaha I have yet to do mine. xD LOL it's like...5 pages long. Oh well...I did like my book though, it was the famous French play Cyrano de Bergerac. It was the most hilarious and well written play ever, I enjoyed it so much.

Oh huh, I have no idea how to use Facebook. xD I have lots of friends added on there but I rarely go on. The idiotic applications really bother me.

LOL free skin cancer! I feel bad for you guys. D:

~ilykmuffins Jul 27, 2008

Haha We had to read this book called Pigs in Heaven and it was pretty good. It was kind of sad, too. We had to do this stupid journal thing. The book was divided into Spring, Summer, and Fall so we had to write about a minor character and 2 quotes for each section plus a major character in the Fall section, then do a thematic reflection on the novel as a whole. I just wrote nonsense 8D

Yeah I hate all of those stupid applications. Some of them are fun but most of them are just annoying. I've just started going on that site again lol Mostly just to see who has posted their schedule

Haha don't. We get out of two years of PE for this! I only have one more quarter of physical education and then I'm DONE!

I'll take skin cancer and humidity over that...is that weird? lol

~pseudolirium Jul 27, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

Aww that even sounds kinda sad.

Bwahaha nonsense always works, and it gets such high marks too! When I actually tried on my English assignments I wouldn't get very good grades, so I started BSing them all and that worked so well.

Ahaha smart thing...I guess I'm rather "Meh" about school in general so I don't care much about the schedules...I guess I'll just end up with whoever. I just use Facebook to do that wall to wall, post pictures and draw graffiti. Otherwise I have no interest in what other people do in their daily lives. I'm so apathetic. XD

Oh nice! LOL I actually really like PE, the sports we play are really fun.

Well I think you really just prefer your instrument over PE.

So fricken sore from drawing all day, I think I'm gonna call it a night. <3

~ilykmuffins Jul 28, 2008

Yes I know! Last year in Biology we had a half multiple choice half written test. So I totally BSed the written part and I somehow managed to get a C or B or something lol I hate science.

Haha yes

Some people do amazing graffiti on Facebook. It's insane. My one friend draws on her graffiti wall a lot. It's pretty funny.
I just hate missing school because then there's more work to do

I am laaaaazy.

PE is my worst nightmare. It has been since...forever haha. I am athletically challenged xP BUT I am coordinated enough to march and play an instument. I'd like to see some football jocks do that!

I'll join you in being sore when I come home from Marching Band. Hooray soreness! Hooray sleep! 8D

~pseudolirium Jul 29, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

Ahaha nice! <3 I like Biology and Chemistry, but I absolutely cannot stand Physics. It combines the worst parts of science with the worst parts of math gughh.

I love viewing the graffiti on facebook, it's so cool.

Aww ahaha, athletically challenged D: I'm like, the Jack of all Trades but Master of None when it comes to PE. I guess I'm better at Badminton but generally I'm fine at all the parts, nothing spectacular. I have fun there. XD

Pfft football jocks- I hate that sport so I totally agree with you on that. <3 LOl as for soreness...a bubble bath? XD
