This is just a collab between me and my older sister, =KikyouBlossom. She drew the lines, and I colored it. We did this picture as a tribute to Itachi, for his birthday on June 9th. :heart: I kinda like the coloring, yet I kinda don't, in a way. I could have done better. I was trying out a new coloring style with this pic, and I had a lot of fun with it. =) Overall, I guess I sort of like the way it turned out, it's certainly one of my better coloring jobs. Thank you so much Liz for letting me color your amazing lines! =D Check out the original drawing here!

Itachi is LOVE! :heart:

No deviants said Hmm, I think you should scrap the current Naruto fancharacters, and design some completely new ones. :nod:

Greetings! You may call me Mandy or Crimson, either one is fine. =) As you can tell, I love anime and manga. 8D I love many different titles, but right now, my favorite is probably D. Gray-Man. I also like Gundam SEED, Elfen Lied, Claymore, Bleach, Yuugiou, Yuu Yuu Hakusho, FullMetal Alchemist, Chrno Crusade, and a lot of others. XD Honestly, I haven't been thrilled with Naruto recently, so it's gone down on my favorites. I'm also not ashamed to say I have become a Transformers fangirl. XDD I love to draw and write, and until recently, I'd been drawing a LOT of Naruto fanart. As in all of my art was Naruto related. ^^; But now I'm trying to draw other fandoms as well. XD Lately, I've been working on my own original series, called Exiled, a rather depressing war novel that takes place 1000 years into the future. So you'll be seeing a ton of artwork relating to that. Music is my inspiration, and most of my drawings or stories are based off a song I heard. I love to make friends, so feel free to talk to me. =) I won't bite, and I'm generally very friendly and patient with people. And if you have any questions about anything, I'm always happy to answer questions. ^_^

OMG, I can't believe it.... D8

Journal Entry: Tue Aug 18, 2009, 7:03 PM




Summer Rant

Shit... Fuck this. D< Once again, I managed to waste another summer without getting a damn thing done. Not ONE DAMN THING. Gah, I'm so mad at myself, I can't believe it. I just don't understand it. I didn't complete one goddamn thing on my to-do list. ...Do I just fail that much? ><;;; I worked all summer on the art I owe, how could I have not gotten anything done? D8 I'm almost done with one. ONE. Big fucking whoop. :iconnotimpressedplz: I think I must have gotten slower or something. Well, I'm going to post up some WIPs today to prove I have been working. I'm so sorry, guys, I really am. I'm so disappointed in myself. I completely understand if you're mad at me. I hate this...Why can't I ever do anything I want to do? >< *sighs* And....I go back to school tomorrow. Wednesday, August 19th. Goddammit. I'm going to get them done one way or another, I swear. God, I hate myself right now. -____-;;; Not to mention the fact that school is starting earlier this year than it did last year. Fucking school board didn't think the students would notice. D<



...Seriously, this was one of the worst summers I've had in I can't remember how long. >< Not only did I not accomplish anything, it was too damn hot to do any work around my house like I wanted to do. :\ So I spent most of my time sitting around complaining about the heat. >< This whole summer was just wasted time...



European History Rant

And if that doesn't make it bad enough, I think my absolute favorite teacher I've ever had got fired. D8 I had him for AP World History last year, and I was looking forward to having him again for AP European History this year. But....that probably won't happen. Unless by some small miracle the rumor wasn't true, but I highly doubt it. My high school sucks, I'm not surprised if they did fire him. He was too good, the kids actually liked him. That alone is enough reason to fire him. It makes me so depressed, because that was the only reason I signed up to take the class. Like I said, he was the best teacher I've ever had, and his lectures were actually interesting. He was a BAMF! D8 He told funny stories all the time, and he was different from the average generic teacher. No teacher could ever compete with him, he was just that epic. I really wanted to have him for my senior year in high school, and it's just not going to be the same without him... I don't even want to take AP Euro anymore, if he's not going to be teaching it. Even though I love history. I don't know... Maybe I'm overreacting. But it really depresses me. I'm going to feel sorry for the new teacher in a way. Everybody's going to hate her just because she replaced probably the most well liked teacher in the whole school. Unless she's a bitch. Or stupid. Or both. :\ Then I won't feel sorry for her. Regardless, I doubt she'll be as qualified to teach or as amazing as Mr. Owen. If this rumor is true, which I pray to every god out there that it's not, though it's probably pretty much a done deal, I'm going to go visit the school board and give them a hard time until they give me a good reason why he was fired and who was responsible.



Schedule

Anyway, this whole year is going to be really bad, I can tell. The only plus is that I'll be graduating, but that's not even much of a consolation. If I had actually accomplished anything this summer, maybe I wouldn't mind going back as much. Or if my counselor hadn't blatantly lied to me. Regardless, here's the classes I'm going to be taking:



1. Photography- It shouldn't be too hard. Hopefully it'll be fun too, since I'd like to learn how to take pictures.


2.Chinese I- I'd love to learn Chinese, and I love language, so hopefully it'll be a fun class. At least better than my French III class last year, where we did absolutely nothing, and I didn't learn or do a darn thing except UN-learn what French I knew. >>;;; And THAT is why I didn't take French IV. Fucking lazy teacher.


3.Gym- FUCKING. HATE. GYM. If it wasn't required that I take it to graduate, I wouldn't. At least it's only a semester though.


4.AP English Literature and Composition- *shrugs* Hopefully it won't be too bad. I don't love English, but I don't hate it. Maybe we'll read some good books anyway.


5.Pre Calculus/Trigonometry- *hisses* HAAAAAATEEEEE. I fail so hard at math. :ohnoes: But at least I didn't get the really hard asshole of a teacher, so hopefully I can do okay anyway.


6.Chemistry- Er....this is going to be hard.... I got the hard teacher who teaches it like a college class, and I'm pretty bad at chemistry, but unfortunately, it's required if I want to be an honor graduate. ^^;

7.AP European History- Normally, I love history, but.... *cries* It's not going to be any fun if Mr. Owen isn't teaching it. T.T I miss Mr. Owen! D8



Closings

So yeah, I've got a pretty hard year ahead of me. I'm going to have to work hard, BUT. I swear, I will get everything I owe done as soon as I can. It shouldn't be too much longer, I promise. Please be patient with me, I never intended for this to happen. *shoots herself* :dead: You are all free to flame me and curse me and throw things at me, because that's what I feel like doing to myself. I'm so sorry, everyone. I just...have no excuse for such failure.... :no:



I'll try and make another update soon to let everyone know how hell school went. God, I fucking hate that place, I can't wait to graduate. ><;;; But anyway, I hope everyone is doing okay, and I'll try to be more active on DA, despite school. I'll get something posted soon, if I have to shoot myself in the foot to do it. I could probably say more, but I don't have time, I can't remember, and it's probably not important anyway. And sorry for the long-ass journal... ^^;

Art Policy

While I do love to draw, I'm VERY slow at it, so I don't pump art out at a fast rate. Actually, you're lucky if you see one deviation a month from me. ^^; But I'm trying to get faster. So please don't take offense if I owe you something and haven't gotten it done yet. ^^; I never forget about that kind of thing, so I will get it done eventually, you just have to be patient with me. You're always welcome to message me and politely ask me what kind of progress I've got on your request. As as you ask nicely and don't sound demanding, I'll be nice as well and answer you as truthfully as I can. And chances are, I'll be apologetic for taking so long, so yes, I do feel bad about making people wait. And whether you believe it or not, it's never my intention to cheat someone out of something. I'm honestly not that kind of person.

I don't do requests. Ever. And chances are, I won't. I've got too much else to do. I don't normally do random giftart, since I never have time/never get inspiration until it's too late. So, I don't really expect any gift art in return, though I would be extremely grateful if you do ever want to draw me something. *gets shot* One of these days, I do plan on drawing some gift art for all my friends here as a kind of thanks for being so patient with me. ^^;

Right now, art trades are not open, since I've got a lot of stuff I already owe people. Commissions aren't open either, unless someone actually wants one. ^^;

If you have any questions about my art policy, feel free to ask, because I'm not good at explaining things.

Comment Policy

I'll just go ahead and say this right now. XD Like with my art, I'm very slow at commenting on deviations and replying to messages. ^^; Especially during the school year. X_X;;; I tend to get lazy, and let them pile up, which I know is not good, but that's just how I am. ^^; I do go through them when I have time, but it may take me a while. XD So be prepared, because you'll probably get random comments from me on art you submitted two months ago or something like that. XDD But yeah, I just want to warn you that I am slow with that kind of stuff, but it's not because I'm ignoring you or anything. So please be patient with me.

As for comments, I thrive on them. I prefer good, advanced critique on my drawings, unless I specifically say I don't want critique(which is rare). If you want to fave my work, I greatly appreciate a comment as well. I'm a comment whore, but, regardless, I'm not going to chase you down and murder you if you don't. XD

I also try to give good comments in return, which is another reason it takes me so long to write comments. However, I usually give comments equivalent to what I receive. I want to be fair, but I don't want to offend anyone either. ^^; It's just the way I work. If you always leave me one-worded or short comments such as "Wow!" or "Cool!" or "Aww, so kawaii! 8D," then that's probably what you'll get from me in return. On the other hand, if you leave me detailed comments telling me what you like about the drawing and what i can do to improve next time, and stuff like that, then in return, I'll give you detailed comments. However, regardless of what kind of comments you leave me, or even if you don't comment on my art at all, when you ask me for advanced critique, I will try to always give it to you. I go by how much I think you value comments and whatnot.

I don't usually comment on a drawing if I can't think of anything to say, or it doesn't particularly interest me. Sorry, but I watch too many people to comment on every single one. And even if I did, the comment wouldn't really mean much. ^^;
