Sorry I haven't been around lately to comment & such. Have a few things to take care of right now, so my time is horribly limited.

Went through all my messages ... might have accidentally deleted some deviation notices, so if I missed something of yours that you'd like me to comment on, just note me or post here or whatever, and I'll make the time to comment.

Now, if I don't sleep soon ... insanity.

Just popping in with some previews of the Mwu/Murrue/Neo pictures ... because I feel guilty for not updating, for whatever reason.

I might submit Murrue seperately, because I finished her long before I got around to doing Mwu and Neo, because I didn't have to redo her lineart in its entirety ... and her style is somewhat different from N/Ms and I don't want to redo her. So technically she's finished, but I want to wait until I finish the others before I decide whether to include her with them or not.

I've been playing with different ways to do the hair - right now, I'm playing around with watercolours - which is why both Mwu and Neo just have very light bases for hair. There's no texture to their clothes either, and I'm contemplating putting Mwu in his EF uniform because it would match better with Neo. Either way, the shirt will *not* stay green!!

Here they are:

The writing next to Neo says "scar" and I have it there so that I don't forget to draw the scar across his face this time around. Mwu has the skin palette I used for both him and Neo beside him. I need to redo Neo's neck (it seems way too big/his head too small) and both Mwu and Neo need their necks recoloured. Haven't looked at the Murrue picture in a whlie, so I really can't say what I need to fix there.

I think I might need to lighten Mwu's and Neo's eyes. Hmm.

And I've started looking for reference pictures so I can fix Namir's outfit (which she didn't have in the image I submitted) and I'll hopefully be done with these three by the weekend so I can start on her.

The marketing people at DA are geniuses with this whole free subscription thing ... it's flippin' awesome; loving the added features and the thumbnails and ...

*dies*

I'm going to have to consider buying a subscription now. Seriously. Awesome.

Still working on M/M/N ... redid the lineart for Mwu because I was told he doesn't look Mwu enough, which means I had to redo the lineart for Neo in turn. But I think they look better, at least.

I uploaded the incomplete Mwu lineart here - photobucket.com/albums/v134/ka… - if anyone's interested.

That aside, I've been tagged by in her journal, so here are twenty things about me.

1) I've never eaten a cracker ever.
2) I have five pets - a dog, two guinea pigs and two budgies
3) I've lived in the same city my entire life
4) I collect McFarlane NHL figures
5) If you didn't figure it out from #4, I'm a rabid hockey fan
6) ... who supports the Leafs
7) I sound like a twelve-year-old girl. I am not twelve.
8) My "Canadian" accent is apparently strong enough for other Canadians to comment on it
9) I'm in the process of teaching myself Japanese (which is why it sucks )
10) I don't really enjoy sweet foods and can only eat a little at a time without feeling sick
11) I can't eat hot dogs, eggs or most dairy products
12) I've managed to burn myself over a dozen times ... the dumbest of which happened when I tried to catch a falling curling iron with my thighs.
13) I'm part Spanish, but it only shows in my very dark brown eyes
14) Out of 30+ cousins, I'm the only only child
15) I love seafood ... very, very much
16) And pasta
17) Steak fajitas too.
18) I hate being cold. So much so, in fact, that I've been known to wear jackets and sweaters in summer if it's a breezy day. Which is why it's not in my best interests to be in Canada, of all countries.
19) My shampoo, conditioner, body wash and perfume are all vanilla scented
20) I love wind.

There. Now I'm gonna tag:
