Know No Bounds





I also made this my new blog header (on my main blog). The link is one of the page links: "My Main Blog!"

My Livestream + Boredom Tee


I was so bored just now, I literally put my drawing on a t-shirt. Make yours here! It disappointed me in the fact that the silhouette was not a solid color, but an overlay, but I'm sure that the color white works (cuz I've seen it, however, I was too lazy to change the color).

Now, the promised broadcast (from the previous post) info (or whatever I was going to say)! What was I going to say (I forgot)? Anyway, if you are stumbling across this now and have not read the previous post, I made a Picarto.TV account. It's a pretty good (art-only) livestreaming platform in the way that you really do NOT need to pay a dime to use it. Of course, with premium membership, you unlock things like inviting people to multi-streams and animated whatever-it-was in chat (emojis?), but you don't really need that stuff, right?
I use OBS (Open Broadcasting Software) to livestream. Before we got a new laptop (did I tell you about that? No? It's a touchscreen!), our old one's software didn't support OBS, so I used XSplit. Both are free (listed in your Picarto.TV dashboard), or at least, have free versions. Picarto has tutorials on how to use your streamkey to connect and stuff, so you don't need me to tell you that.


There is one thing I don't understand about Picarto, and this is it. In case you can't see, it is the link to my channel. The only thing is, the link to my channel is found ON my channel. I mean, what's the point?

Also, guys, Cloudalpaca updated, and it looks beautiful.


I mean, seriously. Forget Firealpaca, Cloudalpaca's where it's at. You may have heard that Cloudalpaca's specialized for manga, but that only means it has more features! There's no feature, as far as I've seen (I haven't compared them exactly or anything), that Firealpaca has that Cloudalpaca doesn't.
Sure, the download page is in Japanese, but you can translate it, and the download button is pretty huge. I just don't know why they got rid of the tutorial. It was great. One day it was there, and the next day, I refreshed the page, and it literally said "Error."

Phew, that was long!
Just so you guys know, I wasn't paid (etc) to advertise these two sites/programs.

Know No Bounds (WIP)


"Okay, so I was drawing my AJ wolf (hence the livestream post, which, by the bye, is now over) and did the usual magic wand tool, inverse, fill it in, etc, etc, to make the wolf base (no particular color). And since the magic wand tool isn't COMPLETELY precise, there's always a few weird spots here and there, especially in tight corners, I decided to color a simple temporary background. And why not make it a pretty color, since I'll be looking at it for practically the entire drawing process. I turned off the lineart layer at some point (I like to do that, turn on and off layers to see how they look), and I noticed that the silhouette actually looked pretty cool :D
I also started on the shading. The wolf/shading aren't going to be gray, the lineart isn't going to be black. I just like to keep it simple when I'm still rendering.
What do you guys think?"

Quoted from my terribly long G+ post about this! That basically describes everything I really need to say. Also, I've improved greatly since the last drawing, of course. I'm still not good with linearts. The silhouette looks better to me than the actual thing right now (if that were a cheap print for sale, I would totally buy it. It looks so clean!). I also did something special for this: I livestreamed! Find my Picarto.TV account here. I really recommend this site - it's free, and it's perfectly good even if you don't have their "premium membership;" you miss out on very little.
I'll write a little post about livestreaming, which you most likely will have read (if I end up writing it); it will be the one above this one.

Little Scrap Dragon



You should probably look at the dA description, it is more in-depth.
So basically, I made this out of the scrap clay from my Speckled Harlequin Sea Dragon.

Paw has SCULPTED?!

*Mind blown*


Admire the blurriness.
See, this would never have happened had I not taken the picture on my (gasp) camera(s are so last season!).
I also created a deviantART account SPECIFICALLY for artisan crafts :D


I also made dis tentacle (pendant?). For your innocence, please do not fullview this picture (because it's really dreadful photography; it will scar you for life).

Rainbow Sleep & AJ Spring Festival!


"Rainbow Sleep."



If you were wondering . . .
I'm not very good at explaining things, but GOOD ENOUGH.

I also felt like drawing this. 5 minutes, maybe? I like the nice clean look of the hill (without the grass). It kind of reminds me of Apofiss's paintings :D . . .


. . . I made some brushes in CloudAlpaca . . .


. . . AND I made a quick sketch for +Kaylah Politan because she accurately guessed my drawing
was an iguana.

Cats, Reptiles, & More!





I also did some Valley of Unicorns customs!





Lineart credit goes to shinepaw! I only edited it a litle to include the tail, ears, and dress and headband.

Profile Update!

Changed my Google+ cover and profile pic! Check it out:

Cover photo.

Abnormal Lion



The un-edited version. As you can see, it's off center. I'm a stickler for these kinds of things XD.

I drew this with a ballpoint pen, on a clipboard, under a flashlight, beneath my covers, at 12 AM this morning (I was sneak-drawing!). Took about...30? 40? minutes.

ARTING UPDATE!

Well, dA's being a buttheaded butthead, so this little blog here is being reinitiated!
If you haven't been up-to-date in my life (the horror), here's a little overview:
- I got my life's ambition: a drawing tablet!
- I now use CloudAlpaca to draw.
- I have no time.
















Woot.
