Name Change!

Hey everyone! I’m trying to make my tumblr a little more active for both my fandom blog and my art blog! But I wanted to swap my real internet name over to the art blog to make it easier for people who know me to find it. :> So! BlazingBlackMage is now HeavySplatlingDecos ArtoftheAreon is now BlazingBlackMage I’ll queue this a few times so everyone has a chance to see and I’ll change my icon a little later just to keep the confusion to a minumum!

Reblogging over here to also say that I’ve changed the name of this blog for the reasons above!

Happy New Year y'all! <3 Here's my improvement for the year of 2016! I felt like this year for me was the year of learning how to shade with confidence. I tried to push myself out of my comfort zone a lot more with learning new ways to shade and utilizing colors for shading and backgrounds. I also tried to create poses that were challenging to me but I feel like I could definitely push myself harder with more dynamic and interesting poses next year. I'm also going to try working more on backgrounds, now with the Cintiq under my belt I feel like I can comfortably sit down and put a whole lot more into them than I could before! ||2015||2014||2013||2012||2011||2010|| Template

So I've had this thing for a little over two weeks but I didn't want to reveal it's existence until Christmas Day since it was a huge Christmas present from my parents. For Christmas my parents got me a brand new Cintiq 22HD, a piece of equipment I have wanted for so long that I never dreamed I would ever get the chance to own. And by doing so they've not only given me this amazing new toy but also gave me the opportunity to commit myself full time to my artwork and keep pushing myself to raise the bar higher and higher as I continue to draw. Knowing how much my parents support what I want to do and what my passion is means more to me than anything and I couldn't be more grateful towards them. With that in mind I'm hoping to get really active the next year! This year was an amazing change thanks to all the fantastic people that commissioned me and gave me work, and all of you that kept me motivated. I haven't been this truly happy with my artwork since 2009, back when I was full of childhood inspiration and passion to draw every day. Even with the little time that I've had this thing I've been feeling that spark again and I'm excited to see where my artwork goes from here. Thank you so much Mom and Dad, I love you guys.  <3   And thank you to all of you that continue to follow my work and support me! I love you guys as well! <3 This Simba is a little old! It was the first thing I tried to draw on the Cintiq.  And I hope all of you have a wonderful day!

It’s definitely been a while since I’ve drawn Splatoon artwork! I’ve been having a ton of fun playing again recently so I decided to go and revisit my old squid kid OC ideas and finally flesh them all out. :) Two down and six to go!
