Well, lookie here, I'm adding on. I've been getting more interested in animation, but in all honestly, thats a lot of work. Hell, that Caliber trot one I did took me like an hour. AND it wasn't that good. But hey, I was a beginner animator back then.
I'm still a beginner today, but that's irrelevant information.
I've started to realize that I tend to try to focus on my OC's when I roleplay, which is really unfair to others who are roleplaying with me. I've tried to keep it under wraps, but...It still just slips out. I know that roleplays are supposed to be creative stories that everyone contributes to, and therefore, the RP is just as much about them as it is about me. It seems that I haven't quite wrapped my mind around that.
But above all that, I should also say that I've just about given up on my FimFics. I don't know why, it just seems so...Fruitless.
But enough about bad things, lets talk about how kick-ass my drawings are. granted, almost all the Digital Art I've drawn is usually the help of bases, and I'm not sure if I can even call that art mine, since technically, someone helped. But I will say I was really pleased on how my latest OC Sparren's picture came out:
Used a base, of course.
But I'm really getting good at traditional art. Hell, I might even get good enough to start my manga when I'm about seventeen years old at the rate I'm at. I'll make sure to include a Hiro picture next time I blog, since his design hasn't really come out, yet, but I do have a few characters in mind. My next entry will be complete information about my manga, which by the way, will be called 'Tourney' for reasons. Remember that name.
This was short compared to my last entry, but even so, at least I got around to typing this thing out.
This is PeytonJay, ending his second blog entry, signing off.
Well, this is my first time making a blog. I have no idea on what their for, but I'm guessing its like an online diary. So, I'll type in what I would for a diary.
I've realized how beneficial sketching out the base of a drawing is, as it makes a huge difference in shape. The change is almost...unsettling. I'm really starting to see just how good I'm getting.
Of course, I'm still not past amateur level, yet. But, I would like to believe that I'm better then most kids my age.
If I were to, say, go to public school, no doubt I'd be one of the best, if not THE best, artists there.
I'm still only drawing manga, and ponies. Which is weird. Someone would think I share a journal with a particularly talented girl. Of course, this excludes my many journals before my discovery of MLP. If I were to take a guess, I'd say I've filled up about ten thick journals with random drawings. Not to mention the countless times I'd doodle on school paper.
I miss my ocarina. Funnily enough, I used to have nightmares about breaking it. I guess dreams do come true. But hey, my ocarina's long gone. For about four months, now. But even so...It was the first time I truly treasured something that was inanimate.
Of course, my laptop replaced it, more or less. I treasure my laptop just as much. But, wouldn't you know it, I've had a nightmare where the screen ripped.
But I'm sure its nothing.
Been thinking about plots to the manga I'm gonna make. The best idea I have so far is a world where the human species evolved into three different sub-species, which have divided the world up into three chunks, which they would inhabit. Each species would be alone. As in, you'd be hard pressed to find one type, in another's land. One would be 'Divines' and would be insanely physically strong. Another one would be 'Humans' which would be, well, us. And the third would be insanely smart technicians. Admittedly, I haven't come up with a good 'label' for the third. The idea behind these three species is that they would be dependent on eachother. As in, the divines would hunt for food, the technicians would come up with ways to make that easier. Humans would cook the food. So on, and so forth, with everything from making buildings to developing weapons. Oh, yeah. Theres yet another species thats basically the embodiment of humankind's flaws. And they frequently attack.
But the three don't see eye-to-eye on much, besides that they need eachother, so like I said, their species only live with eachother.
Here's where it gets crazy. Divines would be insanely physically strong, even though they would never train in their lifetime. Sure, they could get stronger, and train, but their power wouldn't go that much higher. As a quick reference to their power, the stronger of the divines could stop a train with bare hands.
Same thing goes for the smart ones. Born smart, could get smarter by studying, but wouldn't get that much smarter. Again, as a reference, a guy about twenty years old would be able to make insanely complex blueprints for a train, in about a couple days. Without ever studying for it.
And humans...They got nothing to begin with. Absolutely nothing. But, they can train, and study. And this is where it gets cool: Humans aren't bound by anything. They have no limits. A human could become superior to a divine in terms of strength, but they'd have to work hard.
Like I said before, divines hit a cap, and thats it. No more power beyond that. They could train, but it'd change nothing. Same for the smart species.
But humans...They could become absolute god-like. If only they would work as hard as they could, around the clock.
Ironically, the humans are seen as the weakest of the three. Can ya guess why? If you guessed that they're too lazy to work that hard, you're right. And my manga would be about Hiro, a human, who aspires to be a great warrior.
One more thing about my manga, the three species hold a tournament to see who's the best of themselves. Well, the divines and smarts do, anyways. Humans cant really fight that well, so they decided on a presidential thing.
Divines fight, to see who's the strongest, and therefore, most worthy of leading them. Smarts do a science-fair-type-deal tournament, and humans vote.
A human could enter one of the two tournaments, but...With the way humans are, it's ill-advised.
So, yeah. This is my first blog, signing off. Until next time.
