Er....what's this? I have no idea. It just appeared on this app image....WELP, TO SLEEP I GOT THEN MORE INKING TOMORROWWWWWW. I clearly have no idea what I'm doing with digitally coloring anymore. I haven't LEGIT tried digi color in like...2+ years. 

Say hi to Jin, my morally ambiguous, ostentatious, opportunistic, flirty, overly-confident healer Toxicroak. I guess I'm rejoining Pokimono once the comic is done? Though maybe I'll turn in my app sooner since i'd been almost done since October. He should be interesting to play. And SURPRISE, he's a manipulative pretty boy. Shocking coming from me, I know.

I made a giant PS inking tutorial. Enjoy all my secrets.

This was supposed to be a sketch...and then it wasn't.

Protomen sadly took over my music today, specifically the song 'The Hounds.' And then Duality+Protomen AU happened and it was decided Caith would be Dr. Light and then this happened :/

Messing with something new with the coloring.

Guys, I've decided to start making bento boxes for lunch this coming semester to both encourage myself to actually make and eat lunch, eat a HEALTHY lunch, save on space in my bag instead of having like 4 small tupperware containers boppin' around, and because if the food is sorta messy I usually just throw the containers away, and to save on plastic bags, etc. And they're just pretty and fun. 

I also discovered that we have an asian grocery (and an indian grocery) that's on the bus route to the mall I go to at school, which is super exciting. Exciting because they advertise having really low prices on quality foods and I just love asian food a lot, so I'm gonna take a trip there when i get back to school and pick up some groceries for lunches 8D

My only bento problem I've come across when researching them....? To have a satisfying lunch a woman of my age and stature should have a 600mL to 700mL box.

I have this cute little box (with matching chopsticks in a little case and a carrying bag):

It's only 360mL and in no way will support a decent meal OTL

So I'm going to try to get my hands on this pretty box (or something similar) for my lunches. Which might not be that hard because I have someone who nearly insists on getting it for me for valentines. 

Yup. Until I get a bigger box I'll just use my little one and supplement with other containers. 

I'm probably going to be including my future adventures with bento on this blog under the tag BentoAdventures =3=

Thanks for all the help C: I'm gonna go with the darker skintone and the larger pattern because it looks better when shrunk down than the other one. I do really like the other pattern too, so I'm sure you'll see it eventually. This is just a standard outfit for him as a ref for other people, I'll probably draw him in different clothes depending on the situation...because people don't wear the same outfit every day XD

Thanks for the help QAQ

Just saw The Hobbit...I suddenly understand all the tumblr posts about the extremely photogenic dwarf.

Also. Elves. Omfg. It's really dumb, but I love them. I draw most of my men as tall, slender,  kinda femme/elegant, and with long hair. THEY'RE LIKE EVERYTHING I LIKE MADE REAL. *OGGLES*

Ahem, back to drawing my Duality character =3=

I already got one of the best presents...to come home to family, eat good food, and chat with some good friends on skype...and talk with and see someone important to me for the first time in what seems like weeks.

I love you guys, I know I've lost touch with some...but you're all important to me and I'd like to talk to you all more QAQ

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays <3
