Ideas and Updates
11 years ago
I cleared out old journals, all of my shouts and some submissions from my gallery today. If there is something missing and you still want to see it just let me know and I will repost it! I kinda wanted to clear things out and make my page and gallery a little nicer. ;v; Not a big deal, just a personal desire to do something with my page I guess.
I've been updating less and less lately. It sucks. I was wondering if people would be interested in seeing some handmade crafts I do since I don't post my drawing as much lately? Once in a while I make necklaces or bottlecap pendants, and I just got a pattern last night to make a hood/cowl that has a kind of Assassin's Creed feel made for crochet! I'd be happy to sell bottlecap necklaces for like $5 plush shipping (which would be about $7 total), and the other necklaces might depend more on a case by case basis since some are more difficult to make and more detailed while others are simple and not time consuming. Once I crochet one of these hoods and see how it turns out I can post pictures as well, but it will take me a few days to get one done. These are just some thoughts I had today and was wondering if anyone would be interested.
If you guys have things you'd like to see more of, feel free to let me know! I might not always be capable, but I'm willing to try to post things people want to see.

One thing about crochet / quilting / all of that is to just keep trying. I know a lot of people who do it, and once you know how, you're pretty golden. C:
Kinda hoping doing various other things will help me manage to get my drawing inspiration/skill back. ;; I need to make arts!
If your hoods and what not come out really well and you decide to sell them, I may have to look into buying one! >u< I love that stuff so much.
I know the inspiration. I'm lucky in that typically if I just work through my block, I tend to be able to get through it pretty quickly. I have a book on artist's block and tons of strategies. My favorite has to be the one about making some Mexican dish (enchilladas I think?) and gives you the hole recipe, but the actual tip is "Do the dishes and let your mind numb to the mundane". It's got some pretty hilarious commentary.
;w; Ahhh I will definitely post pics then! I want to make them affordable if I do end up selling any so they'd be like $20 (I don't think I'd charge for shipping). I keep looking at Assassin's Creed hoodies and clothes and it's always $60 or more. ;; So this is my cheaper alternative lmao
Ffff I hope I'm not spamming you with all of this. XD I like talking to people, but I'm usually super shy and quiet. Ohgod a book for helping with art block would be amazing. I've been trying a lot of things to escape but it doesn't seem to be working so I kinda just randomly scribble a little every day and hope eventually this will get better. ;w; Enchilladas are so good btw....=v= yummm
Can't wait. ;v; If you end up selling them, I'll try and get one for sure. It's so hard to find anything that surrounds a game or other fandom for cheap, if it's fairly large. Even keychains and bobbleheads are sometimes super expensive.
Nooo you aren't spamming me! I love to talk to people and have conversations. ;v; I was a little late on replying 'cause my brain kinda shut down on the thinking processes last night, but trust me, you are awesome. If you try to work through your block, you'll get somewhere. Even if it is just scribbly doodles. i also recommend listening to a lot of variety of music - I was really surprised when I suddenly got inspired from Trance music and Epica music (the genre, like the group Two Steps From Hell and Immediate... and plenty more). If it isn't too cold, maybe go outside and take some pictures. :D I get super inspired by the snowy nights around here. living in a rural area, you can see so many stars, and if the snow is fresh and moon is out, there is this calmness of perfection over the fields now empty of crops. It's just great.
Ohgod I love Assassin's Creed a lot. Also Resident Evil. Every time I look at gaming merchandise it's always ridiculously priced and it makes me sad.
AhHHHA Music. <3 I've been listening to everything Lindsey Stirling has made, she is an amazing violin player. ;w; I like a lot of trance/epic dubstep stuff too. Two Steps From Hell is so good *A* I have a halloween playlist on Spotify that is about 90% their music lol. ;; Unfortunately I really really hate the cold and snow....I wish I could go camping and take pictures but I won't be able to until spring. I love being out in the woods or just walking in areas where people don't live house to house 10 feet apart, it really is so much more calm and comfortable!
ALSO HAPPY NEW YEAR!
