A Mad Caper Pg. 7 by *Chajiko on deviantART

I generally update every week. :)

A Little More

I know my blogs have been picture heavy lately, and this post is no different. I find that I have very little to say about my life lately—my pictures are doing the talking, really.


Quill Once Again by *Chajiko on deviantART

I love this guy. He is currently at the top of my hot-list. Also, can I just say that I WANT a feather cloak like his?

Why my gallery wouldn't give me an embed code I cannot tell. Hope this works:


Celune, my World of Warcraft character and her love, the blood elf Jath. Their peoples are on opposite sides of a war, but they have found love in each other through their common interests—scholarship and magic.

THis picture is a good illustration (ugh bad pun) of the leaps I'm making in my drawings. Couples have always been VERY difficult for me to draw, and this is the second successful one I've been able to do in the past three weeks! Not only that, but there's foreshortening on her body in that pose. :3 Also, note that I've drawn a background and be AMAZED!

...And for my NEXT Trick...

I know, alot of updates in the first couple of days.

Partially it's because I have alot to say lately--while the other part is that it's just sad to have a half-empty blog.

Art is a funny thing. It comes in fits and starts and then abandons you right on the edge of brilliance to fend for your sorry self. Pieces that you were totally thrilled with not two days ago suddenly turn ugly, and things you swore you'd burn turn up as the standard of loveliness.

Then there's the backsliding and stagnation in skill, style and technique, but that's a whole other sort of vegetable.

This piece is easily one of the best I've ever done. I've been trying to emulate its style and flow lately to no avail--I'll just have to keep on slogging through, it seems.
(WARNING: It's GIGANTIC. O_o)

....I'm the one in the upper right corner with the flag.

Lost Again...!

So...I just started playing World of Warcrack—er, Warcraft, I mean, and it's really a gas.  I played mostly as my undead mage on a regular PVP (player vs. player) server, but then I ended on an RP/PVP server as a human mage.  (For the uninitiated, a regular server is where you're just playing for the sake of playing the game and you're not any sort or specific character.  On the other hand, a Role Play/RP server is where you come up with a character and a backstory and you play the game as that person, in character.)

At any rate, I've really been enjoying myself even though I'm playing on the Alliance side instead of the Horde side, which is what I generally prefer.

This's all just to lead up to my newest piece of art, titled "Lost AGAIN!"

This is the first time I've ever done a full coloured background on the computer, so I hope it worked out.

On the home front...I need more money.  And less fat.  And more storage space.  Does the year seem to be just sliding away to anyone else?  I blink and a month and a half has gone by.
