Ikuko Itoh Style & Animation (1992 - 2013)
I was gonna chill w the advertising lol but since its blackout day and its pride month Iām making another post!!Ā
My nameās Arthur and Iām a NB black latinx and I love magical girls! I draw a lot and Iām making a magical girl visual novel called Magical Warrior Diamond Heart!Ā
The story starts off in a far off kingdom called Chalcedonia ruled by a magical princess named Rosalia. One day monsters called Nightmares attacked and destroyed the kingdom.
Princess Rosalia and her fairy knight, Diana hid deep in the castle, praying that their last hope, the magical Rose Crystal Mirror would produce a miracle and save their home, however, they were attacked by the leader of the Nightmare Agency, Druzy. Diana fought helplessly before finding herself transported Earth, but her Princess was no where to be seen.Ā
You play as Valerie Amaranth, a cheerful 16 y/o black girl with ADHD, who after experiencing a strange dream about the magical princess, transforms into the titular Diamond Heart in order to fight the Nightmare Agency, who are now attacking the Earth as well. Along the way the way she recruits six more allies to fight on her team, and many non-magical hero friends as well.
There are 7 Romanceable characters as of right now:
Sophie an autistic lesbian who loves lizards, frogs, and studying
Clover, a wealthy black trans girl from France with a passion for lolita fashion.Ā
Chandra, a timid, shy Indian girl who gives off a mysterious, gloomy aura.
Alex, a popular and friendly Mexican boy who loves sports and joking around,Ā
Ethan, a dorky Jewish trans boy who loves gaming and manga. andĀ
Liam, A cold, unfriendly genius whoās only friend is Alex
Zacharie, a cheery energetic autistic and ADHD person who adores all things pretty and sparkly
While it is a romance game, the power of friendship is very important >:^) there are two friendship routes with the two fairy guides Diana and Amber.
You can read more about the characters here and the villains hereĀ AND you can follow the tumblr blog @magicalwarriordiamondheartā and the twitter @/DiamondHeartVN
If this sounds cool to you please consider trying out the demo.
If youād like to support me you can pledge to my patreon! for just 1$ you have early access to updates of the game and any other projects Iām working on.Ā
I also have a kofi for one time donations!
Iāve been putting forth a lot of work on this project alone and itās become a job for me so I would greatly appreciate any support! I really love this project a lot and I really want lots of people to love it as well!
Episode 6 is available on itch and Episode 7 is available on patreon! Iāve been told those episodes are very very good :^)
Also Iām getting voice acting now and you can audition there is about two more weeks left
Support the game by buying merch,
Hey kids, I know people have been having issues with copying and pasting frames in Clip Paint Studio animation timeline. But Iāve figured it out, at least until they put more time into it! I know @coelasquid was having issues earlier so I spent some time to figure it out. Ā All the animation frames are tied directly to their layer names.Ā
Whoops! Typo! Fixed in my original post!
Iām Still Alive
After six years, I finally quit my retail job. Other than that, Iāve been trying to keep up with doing some art things. But I havenāt been able too because Iāve been feeling stressed most of the time. I also went to Momocon this past year and got a new job, so thatās also good. I feel better off doing a video about this but Iāve been lazy so Iāll try again later.Ā
guess who have a lot to do but instead is doing shitty spongebob/anime comparission
PD: This is nothing but shit, please do not reblog this

Attention non-artists who commission artists: donāt fuckin do this???
Actually had someone do this to me too. Was doing a art stream, it took me over 2 hours to do his inked commission, he got a refund cause āit took too longā that he figured I wasnāt going to do it after I gave him the file.
Donāt do this. Do not.
Iāve had this happen to me with a $350 comic :/ I had already finished it, it was full color, 6 panels and had a full bg in every panel. I was lucky in that I didnāt spend him money yet, but it left me without funds. Iāve also had the above happen to me as well.
Donāt do this shit to artists. Weāre people too. Drawing for you is more than a hobby. Itās a job.
Use Paypal Invoices.Ā
I cannot stress this enough. That shit helps A LOT when it comes down to Paypal refunds/disputes. Thereās a description box that letās you put in what the product is/how long itāll take/yadda yadda, and then thereās another little memo box that only you and paypal can see where you can say itās a digital commission and doesnāt require shipping (So Donald Mcfuck canāt say that they never got their commission). And thereās also a box for your Terms & Conditions where you can say, if you have any conflicts/want a refund - email me, or you can actually tell the user that this is a digital commission and they wonāt be getting a hard copy of it.
ARTISTS. PLEASE USE PAYPAL INVOICES. it will SAVE you. And to: the people who do this to artists ā Fuck you. Itās okay if you change your mind and want a refund. But freaking TALK to us and let us know whatās going on. Let us WORK with you.
ALSO A HUGE TIP: Invoices paid will automatically set up a shipping notice which, if not fulfilled, can land you in SERIOUS hot water with PayPal. Since a lot of artists donāt print and ship the commissions, this is a huge problem.
However! Totally manageable. Just go to your PayPal, scroll down to find Seller Preferences
>> Shipping Preferences
>> Display Ship Button. Make sure all the boxes are unchecked. Then youāre all set!
As a big supporter of artists, donāt you ever fucking dare fuck over an artist like that. Like donāt. And if they take their time to do a good job, donāt shit all over them for it! Donāt be a fucking ass hole. Just donāt. These people put a Ā LOT of work and time and effort into their artwork. Just donāt be that guy. Often times these artists arenāt even getting what they deserve in compensation.Ā
I am very grateful my customers have been good to me, but Iām spreading the word.
Very important!
As a new artist, Iām very grateful for this post. Never knew this. Thank you.
I finally finished the thing!Ā Hereās a short little tutorial on drawing curly hair.Ā I hope that you guys find this helpful, and if you have any questions please ask!
Thank you to the Patrons who voted for this Tutorial! If you would like some bases to use freely for exercising your new knowledge, you can download them HERE.Ā
If you would like to check out my reference Pile that I used for this tutorial, check that out HERE!
Hope this helped somehow in your journey to drawing plump and fat and chub folks c:
Iāve been asked a lot about how I do bgs⦠so I decided to post this and try to explain a bit the steps I use sometimes
Alright so first I have to say that I donāt feel like Iām good at them.. but anyways I do my best. I always start looking up a lot of references, because my memory sucks and I donāt pay attention to details, so I have no idea how things look.
I have like 3 ways of doing bgs, and I use them according to how dominant the bg is on the pic. This one is the most proper one, the others range from fat messy lines to no lines at all.
1.So first step is the sketch⦠ignore the creepiness of it⦠I had it a long time waiting on my computer and it was supposed to never see the light.
2. Just lines :/
3.some flat colors, mostly to work out the balance in the scene. I donāt paint them properly, because I think it gives the pic a more organic feel and because colors reflect each other all the time, so who cares
4.rough lighting.
5.hereās a bit of polishing
6.more polishing and details.
7.color lines and more details
8. some things I like to paint over the lines at the end, like glows and some sparkles and more atmosphere and lighting.
TADAH! Iām really bad at explaining, but hopefully seeing the process will help more than my words?
aah and the mirror.. Iāll probably paint it very messily when I add the character and some other details.
Hope it helps :)
geekysideburns replied to your post: Iām having a hard time noā¦
Have you gotten to reference layers yet because OMG.
WAT IS THAT
Hereās what Iām trying to say in gif form. I rambled insanely.
The blue layer is set to reference.
Then you can do this.
And this.
Ohhhhhh that is so cool :O :OĀ :O

Congrats to one of my absolute favorite tumblr homies, Meg!!
Another amazing resource, like always!!
You know whatās disappointing? I was a HUGE fan of his before his cosmetics line came out and supported his music career heavy when I was in my scene phase. When I heard he had a cosmetics line I was so excited! But when you start comparing black women to animals Iām out. Jeffree Star is cancelled. Iām not telling you to not buy his products but why would you willingly buy from a racist when there are so many better products out right now? This isnāt his first time doing something problematic btw. Anyway, tag your favorite black mua/youtuber/blogger/makeup line so I can follow them ā¤ā¤ā¤. #jeffreestar #jackieaina #jstar #jeffreestarcosmetics
Bye Jeff, donāt need you.Ā
people who befriend artists & then try to guilt trip/manipulate/talk them into drawing free stuff for them or w/e or only see the artists as trophies/ways to become famous are so fucking ugly at heart lmaoĀ
damn how could I forget about the people who purposefully befriend the artists best friends in order to get to the artist and/or complain about the artist to get what they want lmao @ all of these people: youāre mad ugly & you should stay the fuck away from creators and their friends
ALRIGHT EVERYONE I FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO FUCKIN INVOICES SO HERE YOU GO HEREāS THE TUTORIAL
invoices are an easier / safer way to request money from commissioners. all the commissioner has to do is accept to pay the money, so you donāt have to worry about them clicking or typing anything that will get you in trouble with paypal.
STEP 1
under Invoice Information you can choose what date your invoice needs to be paid by. if you donāt have a specified date for your commissioner then make sure to select No Due Date so they donāt get into any trouble for not paying by the default date.
STEP 2
go through your Business Information to make sure itās only showing what you want it to show. your default template may show your address, phone number, name, etc, but everything is optional and can be turned off. personally i only keep my e-mail visible so commissioners know where the invoice is coming from.
STEP 3
your commissionerās e-mail goes here
STEP 4
fill out what your commissioner is paying for and how much it costs. double check the Total towards the bottom to make sure youāve filled out everything correctly. keep item names vague like ācommissionā or āimageā since paypal may freeze your account if they catch any buzzwords they donāt like.
STEP 5
here you can fill out any terms and conditions your commissioner should know about, ie when you accept payment, if you give refunds, etc.
STEP 6
in the Memo box you can write a note for yourself to see when you look at the invoice. you can write down who commissioned you and anything else youāll need to remind yourself of later
TEMPLATE
remember that you can replace the default template so you can save your business info, terms and conditions, etc for the next time you fill out an invoice.
IF PAYPAL IS ASKING YOU TO āSHIPā YOUR DIGITAL COMMISSION
look under Selling Tools on your home page and click Seller Preferences
click Update next to Shipping Preferences
go to Display Ship Button at the bottom and make sure Goods is un-checked
reblogging this again because iāve been seeing that post about paypal charging thousands of dollars over policy violations floating around
idk what policy violations those apply to, but just in case, i want to direct everyone to invoices, which is a much less risky method of requesting money than relying on the customer to pay themselves!!Ā
Reblogging so that people can learn this.
ALTHOUGH. A friend called paypal and paypal said that they do not have buzzwords. They mainly just check for fraud. You just get in more trouble if youāre selling porn.
Itās probably a good idea to keep things likeĀ āfuraffinityā and other things off your invoices, but they do not filter ābuzzwords.ā

Yep, you heard it. Iām doing commissions again⦠Ok I lied, I never really stopped, but decided to revise and update my last post. As you all now, my mother had passed in late December and now my family and I are really in a pickle, both my parents would use their combined money to pay for bills. With mom gone, weāre struggling to pay overdue bills, my water has been shut off along with my phone and who knows whatās going to be shut off next, and I worry rent hasnāt been paid as well. With my current work schedule I wonāt be making enough Ā to pay for the water and the next upcoming bills no time soon.Ā
