Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

BTS post + Supanova!

Journal Entry: Sat Apr 14, 2012, 7:28 AM

Haro~!!

Decided that it was high time for a another BTS photos post, as my last was a while back and I've done so much since then if I leave it too much longer the potential journal size just becomes astronomical 8'D
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Q&A session in my last journal btw! And thank you as always to all new watchers

Much love to you all!

To new watchers~ I regularly post progress pictures etc on my facebook account: [link], and put new photos up generally same-day on my tumblr: [link] . I also upload full photosets, and preview photos for the photobook on my main cosplay blog - [link], and random stuff goes on my other blog - [link]^o^

So as most of you probably know,

and I have been working hard on our upcoming Uta no Prince-sama photobook Resonance for Natsuki and Syo. With the help of our photog

we've been doing heeeeaaaappss of shoots to ensure the book has everything we want in it! I just registered out table at SMASH as Starlight Serenade - so exciting! We'll be finalising printing details as soon as we can so I can let you guys know more details before the event, and so those of you from overseas who would like a copy can order it

Anyway, on with the photos!

A while back we shot the outfits from the Debut Drama CD~ were shooting in quite a popular public place on a Saturday, so there were a lot of people around to stare at us 8'D

That tie man...idek... =__=;

Smile, Syo-chan!

Unimpressed Satsuki face lmao

~~~~~

Next up was two shoots in one day~ character singles cover outfits, and painting shoot!

Those who have seen the Natsuki Idol Song cd cover will know what I mean when I say the pose is really weird...like...it looks less weird in the art, but it's SO FREAKING HARD to do in real life omg...and to top it all off he looks so...molested...in the art...lol 8'D

Decided that the Pixiv interpretation of how Natsuki and Syo's respective poses go together is definitely the correct one XDDD /shot

My back was seriously sore the day after...ahaha...that sounds so wrong I know rofl...

ANYWAY, next was painting shoot! Based off promo art for the Debut game *u* Syo-chan and I spent the morning before the first shoot painting our 'wall'! XD

TADA~~!

Nothing like spoofing your own photos for crack purposes

Starish! ...with paintbrushes lol

Paint contributions from Syo-chan...

Random lol moments~~

The paint was actually surprisingly hard to get off afterwards ahahaha...and I am now the proud owner of a pair of yellow pants with pink handprints on them LMAOOO

~~~~~

For a break in between all the UtaPri, I finally finished up my Barnaby cos and shot it with the help of ~JKale, ~ChoCho-Cha and Andrew~

I am so cool 8'D

ALL OF THE FAIL JUMPING LMAO this one was particularly loltastic as the thing I jumped off made this horrible cracking sound as a did so, which stopped me concentrating on pose so..yeah 8'D HURRR

Bunny janai! ...lol yeah sure

Card throwing photos are always painful lol...

And this is /not/ how to take good crying photos... Photog: 'nice expression but uh...you didn't put the bottle down out of sight ' Me: *FACEPALM*

After shoot!

After the shoot we went to get tea - I changed out of stupid 70s hair~ and we were sitting in the café when J points out to me - 'you know you still have a seedy 70s gold necklace on'. Me: =__________________=;;;

~~~~~

2 weekends after was more UtaPri times! Episode 6 of the anime outfits~~

Started with solo shots while Syo-chan was still at work, so I could Satsuki on stage photos~

As well as beautiful Nacchan ones. LOL.

With my little sister who so kindly helped by holding the reflector!!

Syo-chan arrived!

I think I'm being backhanded for something in this LMAO

derpderp~

Coffee date times!

Syo-chan likes the piyo-chan hat, really he does~ he's just in denial ;D

Changed out of wig etc after but kept blazer on...I kinda really like it XD;;

~~~~~

For another change of scene, I randomly decided to throw in a Death Note cosplay to my list!

I've always been interested in Mikami's character, and hardly anyone coses him so~!

Lelouch hands?!? I have no idea what I was doing here lmao...

Wait for it...going to get shot for awful terribad sense of humour here...

KIRA!

*sparkles*

AHAHAHAHAAHHAHA I'M SO SORRY LOL 8'D

~~~~~

Next photobook shoot - summer uniforms in school setting ^o^

I...don't know lol...I think I was just spacing out here lol

ARGH NUUOOOO NOT A VIOLIN~~ THE CHILDHOOD TRAUMA AARRGGGHHH~~ XD;

(although I actually think Natsuki's backstory is actually really sad, and I feel so sorry for him ;A; )

Had absolutely no idea what we were doing here, and then I remembered that we had just seen this weird caterpillar on the tree which had like...horn things...so yeah

I love how Syo-chan's face is just like... 'ch-CHIKAAIIII!!' D8

LMAO omg this photo...I had no idea what was going on while my back was turned rofl... 8'D LMAO @ =princelingcat

With ~JKale after!

~~~~~

Then next UtaPri shoot was Debut outfits!!! AAHHH I love these designs so much *333* it was so lovely to make as well, getting to play with all the lovely trims *A*

We were so very lucky to get access to this completely amazing house to shoot in *__*

Was also very excited to use my lighting equipment for the first time! I'd been saving to get enough money for ages, and I finally bought it *3* So happy, it was worth every penny!

Random cam-whoring

More random mirror photos XD

Beautiful things, truly. (y)

While I was over here~~

Syo-chan was sleeping in the cushions >3< *squishes*

moaarrr violaaaa mmm

Why is Syo-chan hiding in the curtains~?

LOL photos getting interrupted by the dog of the house...my face...lmao... (I really hate dogs btw ahaha 8'D)

Took polaroids afterwards!

~~~~~

And finally, my most recent shoot was for Takasugi from Gintama~! Very grateful to ~JKale and ~raspipop for helping me shoot this even though it was short notice and in the middle of the week! And in a mosquito infested bamboo forest...ahaha... ;3:

Again, my new lighting equipment was so useful here, it was really surpisingly dark in the bamboo~

Wanted to take burning butterfly photos (to tie in with the 'Shura' ED, for those who watch Gintama and know what I'm talking about)
All of the failing to burn...

LMAO @ my face...this was just after some successful photos, when I thought it was about to burn my hand rofl

With ~JKale and ~raspipop after finishing!

~~~~~

GOLD COAST SUPANOVA

I shall be going! I'll only be there on the Saturday though, because a) I have tonnes of uni assessment to do due the next week and b) it's on the gold coast...why...I will never get over bitching about this... =__=

Will be cosing Nezumi from No.6 with ~JKale as my Sion!
