Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) About Me ===================================== I've been drawing all of my life, so 18 years. I only really became serious about my drawing ability in the 8th grade, which is where my skills picked up. For traditional media I use normal 2HB pencils, Mechanical Pencils, Crayola Pencil Crayons, Prisma Verithin, White Gellyroll And Sakura Mircon 05. For digital I use a Wacom Bamboo and GIMP. The tablet is currently borrowed from my friend, as I don't have money to buy one. I have more experience with traditional media and therefore am better in that area. I've also taken basic drawing lessons from Stephen Bauckman. But otherwise I am self taught. Art Status ===================================== Commissions/Customs are Open. Please PM me if interested. Trades are Open. Please PM me if interested. Requests Are closed. Friends only. I currently am saving for; ♕ My own laptop ♕ A Wacom Bamboo tablet ♕ A wig (for my best friend's birthday~) Rules ===================================== Cans I can draw animals and humans. Though I'm better at drawing people, in my opinion I can do Fanart! I am not biased against any fandom, so whatever you'd like feel free to ask~ Yes I'll draw your OC's! If you like you can even order a character design as a character re-design Can'ts I WILL NOT DO ANYTHING OVER PG 14 so don't ask. This just a matter of me personally not wanting to get my account shut down/being a bad influence for younger members, ect, ect. You may not re-upload my artwork anywhere. If you want to use it for your blog/profile/website just let me know, I probably won't have a problem with it You may not resell/redistribute my work What are adoptables? Adoptables are a character design created by another person, often sold for points or money depending on the seller. Once the buyer has purchased the adopt they may use the oc for whatever they like; roleplays, stories, gifts, persona, fursonas, ect. Why are your "___" so expensive!?? If you have a problem with the price of my wares then you can take your business elsewhere. It's very rude to post negative comments about the price as it makes the seller feel guilty. If you want to share your opinion on why the price is too expensive you should do so politely. Paypal only please~ Once we've discussed all the detail's of your commission please send the money right away. I will not start your commission until I am payed 8') Also, please don't' send it as a gift, send it as "goods and services."

Posted July 4, 2013 Reeeeally quick sketch of Carola done in GIMP Her face is a little thinner and her nose isn't quite that small Thinking of doing some concept sketches! It's a toss up between Carola, Hunter Graves - Loud + Shameless AU, or Mafia Rocket Pokemon Share this post Link to post
Posted July 4, 2013 Hmm is Carola one of you RP characters? You should do some Mafia Pokemon |D Also, do you use a tablet to draw? And do you usually use GIMP? (I have GIMP but I have no idea how to use it >_>) Share this post Link to post
Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) Yes, Carola is my rp character in Inferno High, in the freeform section And yes, I use a tablet and always work in Gimp. I suggest looking up some tutorials, I personally find it easier to manage than photoshop Okay! I figured out how to make them smaller! They're linked in case any of you want to see them at full size Okay, let me tell you a bit about Essie. Essie was first created back in the 8th grade here on DC - under the Name Excel Hato - for an rp called "Pokémon Island." She was originally based off of this trainer; Her story and appearance have been reworked several times over the years as I've tried to figure out what to do with her and even now I still only Have a small idea of what I'm want. I'm too lazy to tell you so I'm just gonna drop some info on her and go hide under your bed [ Name: ] Essie Roth [ Age: ] 19 [ Gender: ] Female [ Hometown: ] Celadon City, Kanto [ Residence: ] Near Fortree, Hoenn [ History: ] Essie was born and raised in the busy city of Celadon, and showed an affinity to pokemon at an early age. Essie's parents were both scientists working for team Rocket, so she naturally grew up placed in that lifestyle. She was placed in their training program a few years earlier than most due to her natural skills with pokemon. She developed her skills with pokemon simply by interacting with the pokemon her parents left to look after her while they worked. Due to her fathers jealous Gengar, that used to bully her, she grew up with a slight fear of ghost types and obvious phobia of Gengar. She was an extremely successful member of Team Rocket - despite her hidden distaste for it all - and even nearly became an executive. However, due to some 'meddling kids' who had shown her what it was like to be a legal trainer the Rocket organization turned on her under claims of traitorhood. The international police were involved, but it still took nearly two weeks until she was taken into social services. She was moved to Hoenn, where she now resides. [ Trivia: ] - She's only been a legal trainer for three years - She gets very restless and so has volunteered at the Petalburg gym as a trainer; mostly it's just an excuse to travel across region - She sometimes has flashbacks and terrible nightmares - An incident with Electrodes, near Lake of Rage, caused her parents death. - Her original pokemon from Kanto are deceased - Her first pokemon was an Eevee named Del, which grew into an Umbreon [ Pokemon: ] Charter - Combusken Male | Serious, Likes to fight Ability - Speed Boost -Flamethrower -Poison Jab -Double Kick -Thunderpunch Charter - despite his 'cranky' disposition - can be extrememly gantle, mostly towards Essie. So far he has been the only one of their group to be able to calm her down when she has nightmares and flashbacks. He was given to her by the International Police upon moving to the region, hence why he has such a rare ability Arlee - Smoochum Female | Naive, Highly curious Ability - Oblivious -Sing -Psychic -Ice Beam -Grass Knot Arlee is one of the four youngest of Essie's pokemon, the other three being Nia, Imogene and Malik. She was bred by her friend Brannon in the Johto Region; a suprise for Essie's birthday. Edited July 4, 2013 by ktav13 Share this post Link to post

Posted July 7, 2013 (edited) So I sent off a letter to Disney, I don't expect to hear back from them, but I figured I'd share what I wrote because feels I am a young artist who loves Disney. It is one of my greatest goals in life, and has been for quite some time, to be a part of Disney family. From as long as I can remember Disney has captivated my imagination and creativity. From the time I was just a child, enjoying the entertainment value, I have grown up enjoying Disney movies. As I've older I've grown to appreciate not only the stories themselves, but the art, creativity and passion that is put into each movie. I admire how much time is spent carefully shaping each character to be as realistic and individual as people I know in my own life; to the point where it feels like they're real people I've met - rather than just characters in a story. As an example; Treasure Planet. Today I look at Jim Hawkins as one of many of Disney's believable relatable character's; who show a common issue many people have gone through and grown up with. As long as I can remember I have found comfort and joy in drawing and creating characters. Even though this is not yet my career, this is my life. I work constantly, every day, to improve upon my skills and abilities. It's to the point where I have gotten off track in my life goals. Though I am eighteen I have not yet graduated, however my current main life goal is to graduate and go to secondary school. I have struggled academically all of my life, however I do find joy in learning new things. I find the structure of a school environment stifling and I have trouble staying engaged, and so I have gotten off track but am determined to return to school and get a good education as a good foundation for my life and career going forward. I will be returning to classes and working full time towards that goal as of September this year. What I need, and will greatly appreciate, would be any guidance you can provide me as to where I should be placing my focus, to be employable by Disney in the future. That being said, I need some kind of plan to structure my life path to get me to where I want to go, which is living a life where art is not only my job but my passion and career. I need more than high school math, I need art to be truly happy. I am an artist, not just a simple drawer, and this is my life." Edited July 7, 2013 by ktav13 Share this post Link to post
Posted July 15, 2013 Redesign and turnaround of my fankid, Hunter Graves. All that really changed is his hair. He's also quite a bit happier than he has been in a while Just a doggy doodle sketch Share this post Link to post
Posted July 15, 2013 Hunter still looks slightly nervous But did you draw it in only colored pencil? OAO The letter to Disney is also really cool. I hope you get in! You sound like you really want it. You're drawings are really good, and I'm not saying that just to be nice. I think you have what it takes to train under Disney! I hope you get a call Also, I started drawing in colored pencils a few days ago ^^ It's actually really fun to do~ Share this post Link to post
Posted July 15, 2013 That's his 'well okay, I feel awkward and creeped out' smile. He's still at least a little happy though. I'm actually using the kind of pencils that some teachers use to make tests, they're erasable And I so want it. I've never even been to Disney, but I've always been obsessed with them (except for that small time between 12 - 16 where I was like 'ew that's baby stuff' ) but anyway, thanks Share this post Link to post
Posted July 15, 2013 Ohh. I see~ Are they easy pencils to use? I think I know the kind you're talking about I hope you get into Disney. It would be really cool~ You've never been to Disneyland/world, or to the Disney studio? Have you ever drawn any of the characters before? Share this post Link to post
