Music:Liar by Korn

It has been an incredibly long time since I’ve updated. However, this does not mean I simply stopped making graphics for all those months. In fact, I have been making a graphic here and there, yet never found the time to upload anything. With my job, school, and friends that enjoy hanging out, it became difficult to put aside time for online. Nevertheless, I am back, and hopefully I’ll be able to get a new layout up soon, as well… One that is easier to navigate :)

Graphics- One wallpaper that I made sometime back in late December is now added to the site. It is now probably my favorite of Shuriken’s collection. A very good and realistic cg art piece. There are two versions of this wallpaper; one in which is more of the regular colors of the picture, only greatly enhanced, then there is an icy blue version in which greatly reflects the season in which I made it. Ever since its creation, up to this date it has been my background. Still there is another wallpaper that I made in early January that I added tonight; it features Ryu Hayabusa and his ally in the sequel of Ninja Gaiden on the DS called Dragon Sword. Though simple, it is quite perfect for the busy desktops of people that spend a lot of time on their computers. Yet another wallpaper, yes, another Ninja Gaiden one featuring Ryu, that I made today! It is not the best one, but it was more so an experiment of effects.

Alright, so perhaps I went a little crazy on all of the forum sets, but I couldn’t help it! They are a lot of fun to make, and well, I rp on mine and Amaya’s site Kingdom of Veritas, so I’ve gotten used to dealing with them. Anyway, there are four in this update: all from different categories – Zexion from Kingdom Hearts, in which there are two versions, one more for the girls and the other for those that don’t like sparkles (which is a lot of girls that don’t, but that’s your call), another one is Cloud from Final Fantasy Advent Children, in which I put him in a winter scene, then there is Kasumi from Dead or Alive with a very colorful scenery behind her. It is about time I added to my collection of the DOA graphics. Last of the sets, but not least, is one that I made from CG art I created last summer. Should I see that work anywhere without credit, I do warn that I will not be very forgiving – it took a long time to make the woman in that picture.

Random Zack Fair craze? Naw, I just wanted to add a blend of him to the collection. It is not the best, but a few of the pictures used in it are pretty good quality, considering the fact that they are snapshots. So if you like the soft aqua/blue haze look, and Zack Fair from Final Fantasy VII… go check it out!

Other- As I edit the pages that I added to, I am also getting rid of outdated graphics in which no longer have a place here. It is almost time to do a complete revamp; new layout, lots of new graphics, and a cleaning up of the older stuff. Especially some of the PNGs I have on here o.0

Also, I earned one gold and one silver medal at solo ensamble competition! Yay! It was kind of hard to sing when sick, and I even coughed in the middle of my songs x_x Thank goodness for a forgiving judge. Also, just today, I have finally beaten Morrowind. I think. My Xbox froze up as I was going to go talk to the guy I had to report back to. Nevertheless, the main quest is over as far as I can tell, and finally, after all these years, I am done! YAY! *victory dance*

It is end of my summer vacation, as I only have three full days left to enjoy the summer of freedom. Considering that I have not updated since June, I decided I'd better get to that before summer was over. I won't be changing the layout for a bit, for I still love it to death. -Always been a green fan-

For Graphics - It seems I had an avatar fetish for a while there. In this update I made eight new icons; most from Lineage, one from Dead or Alive, and the others are of minor video games like Last Chaos and Kingdom or Warriors. My favorite of these is under Avatar>100>Other>Other, it is the one with an elf from Lineage II and it has rich color. One of my favorite works yet. The other graphics are minor, but must be mentioned. Genesis is a character from Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core, modeled after the major jrocker Gackt. Since I personally like this character, I went all out and made a very unique wallpaper design. See for yourself, if you please, but I am very happy with the outcome, considering it took a long time to make. After that, there is a new forum set and banner, both of the same design I made of Kasumi. White swirlies just seemed to match it well.

For Resources - As momo said earlier, she uploaded two textures and a render for me recently. These textures are my best as of yet, and certainly took some time to create. While one is more of heavenly, the other is a dark grunge one with bold colors along the edge. The render is of a female from a PC game called Aion. It was hard to do since there was a glow around her on the picture, but I still managed to pull it off in the end, and I am extremely proud. Considering that I learned a smart way to make PNGs, I should be making them much nicer now. At the moment, I am working on one from an anime called Shining Tears. Looking good so far, but I might not finish it - who knows? We'll see.
