The Hangout....where sanity is overrated.

Shiro - Umm...

Ashram - xp Whatever. No pictures of AD's face.

It's my brother's spanish sword, actually. I didn't have my katana yet when I took the picture.

Bah! You're no fun

Hmm...I thought the sword was shorter than it actually is. (hurray for angles)

Katana, you say? Yum Yum! That reminds me... (needs to practice more with Bokken)

It is my dream to one day own an authentic Japanese katana. (preferably from the Masamune lineage)  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Sorry, I'm never any fun. xd Not when it comes to swords, anyway. Swords are rather important to me. As they are to all Deli Ninjas.

Yesh. Katana. On my wall. A Christmas present from a friend, whom I said I would have married if she had not been female.

It would be cool to own an authentic one, but only if you got the chance to use it.

xd I take it you were very pleased with it. How good of quality is it?

If I recall correctly...they still give katanas to the officers of the Japanese army...Hmm...

Have you ever watched the instructors of Aki-ken or Iaido(sp?) use their swords on bamboo rods wrapped in layers of (what appears to be) hay? The cuts are so clean...Beautiful, beautiful...

You sound like you'd approve of an idea I had. (and wanted to write about) The revival of the warrior class. biggrin  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Shiro - ...

Ashram - Not TOO good, actually; it's decorative. But I enjoy it thoroughly, particularly because it fits with IC (which you don't know, so ignore that) and it looks nice under my angel wings nailed to the wall.

No, I haven't. That sounds nice, though. Maybe I'll research it a bit.

Revival of warrior class? That would be rather cool. It'd give me more career options outside of "therapist."

xd That it would. If it were set up like the way the Japanese did many years ago...you would have been trained in the ways of warriorship from birth. Course...there would be the chance of you not being alive for long (after the age of about...I'd say 14) but hey...

I thought it was rather interesting when I learned that women samurai were not as uncommon as most people think.

The only form of weaponry I have is my Bokken (practice sword) and a replica of the Scorpion King's sword. (which I have not seen sweatdrop A friend of mine gave it to me) I would have more...but my mother is a little...edgy around large pointed objects. xd

Shiro: @____@;; eee~~ *hides* ~___~;;

gonk heart well..I can take "shiny" @__@;;

Ashram : XD yah, I asked myself the same thing when I started computer art last december. ^___^ still do sometimes. It all comes with experience. soon the stuff you think is "OMFG IMPOSSIBLE" becomes quite ...regular. o.o

Shading/coloring/CG? *shrug* my mind fills it in for me. I never have to think about art. well,sometimes, but not often. XD it just..comes.

Photoshop? OMG EVIL PROGRAM! @__@ stab it! now! gonk

but..*cough* as with every program, just fiddle around with the tools. all you really need are paintbrush + eraser and a GENERAL understanding of layers.

Shiro means..lineart as in.. *shrug* uncolored art. Art that has not been CG'd, so just the pure lines. and sweatdrop thank you.


Ryuu : But I had to FIND my style. o.o you can't expect to get a proper unique style by constantly emulating others. *scolds playfully* x3


Lang : "KLSfjelkrelkjdslk" me? !@____@;; oh noes!
heart

e___e your eyes have been trained to understand proportions and how to spot when something's "wrong" ; ; I KNOW you know there's something wrong with them!

kay, Lang can't complain about her art. =__= that's just..no.

"Besides, so many people wouldn't adore/envy/want your art if it was horrible. Tell me I'm wrong. " <-- biggrin you're wrong.

What am I on? sugar and everything nice? @___@;;



Laitue : biggrin going broke over us? *must keep Lettuce-chan far away then* o.o

AD whee heart love you too~ ^^

Songjewel eee, I'm glad you found your shop! biggrin it sounds like the perfect place for you~ ^___^


ugh, I forgot about those headshots. @___@;;

omg, the old samples. ~__~;;

[Abandoned Dreams]

Nyome - heart

Deuxia - sweatdrop  

[Deuxia Devonair]

Why teh " sweatdrop ", AD? sad  

[T H I N N]

Nyome>> I'll have to get back into the swing of artistry first...when I was younger I took lessons and had some talent, but over the years I just kind of let it go. It's more of a hobby than anything now, which is ok, in a sense.

Ashram's knowledge of layers --> 0 biggrin

DD>> Indeed, that she is. 3nodding  

[Abandoned Dreams]

Deuxia - No reason. Thank you. heart

Ooh, Ghost in the Shell...  

[T H I N N]

Shirow Masamune = Extreme heart

The series for GitS reminds me of CSI or Law and Order for some reason.

Ash: be thankful, otherwise you would have gotten an EYEful! xd

What's THAT supposed to mean?!

Aw come on now! ... you really want to make me explain that now? sweatdrop harsh j-j

No, I don't. I just thought you might be insulting my Deli Gear.  

[Shokkie]

Ashram : o.o Ah, isn't that what always happens? XD I say define what you wanna go into by the time you're in middle school and stick with it.

ninja I remember my first reaction:

" layers? what are those? do you NEED those? "


XD;;
