Heyoo, haven't talked to ya in a while. How's life?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's pretty good! I'm really busy and basically have abandoned deviantart for anything art related, but I got accepted to a university and things are going basically well. You?
π: 0 β©: 1
That's great to hear, Grey! Congrats!
What are you gonna be doing, Physics and Animation or has it changed since we last spoke?
Yeh, I need to start uploading more stuff in general, because I need to be more active on here xD
I'm doing fine! I got accepted to university as well, studying multimedia. Though I only start at the end of this month.
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm gonna try both, because I'm applying to this funky dual degree program that would let me do both a fine arts and regular bachelors program. I still don't know if I'm getting accepted into that though :'D. but I am for sure doing physics, hopefully both.
I'm so glad, congrats to you! Multimedia is gonna be so cool, I considered that for a while but then decided not to. And you start pretty soon! I keep forgetting how time frames are reversed down there, I guess that means you're ahead of me XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Ooh, good luck getting in!
But either way physics is quite the nice degree to get. I wanted to do some kind of computer science degree but I think my math marks was too low for me to be even allowed to apply for the course x3
Ah, thank you!
Yeah, it's a bit confusing because a school year for you is between the first year's July to the next year's July, while a school year here is from January to December, so its nicely ordered.
But this would mean its only halfway through your final high school year, correct? Sheesh if that's so, good luck with the rest of the year. Matric is hectic.
And my parents are considering getting me a tablet because of university. So I wanna ask, what kinda tablet do you have?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I love physics so much. And Math is a beast, sorry they wouldn't let you in...
Yeah, I'm only halfway there and I have so much to do...a little stressful but I'll work it out. Excited for college regardless!
I have a wacom intuos, its a pretty nice one bc my mom is a graphic designer and she just got me the same type she uses professionally. The only thing I don't like is that you can't see what you're drawing on the tablet screen (just on the computer) and that it's large enough that it's hard to carry. Otherwise it's pretty great.

Sorry for replying so late!
Yeah, its a bit of a shame, but hey, at least I got into university, so I'm quite happy with the outcome!
Yeah, I know. But just hang in there Grey! It gets hectic during mid-year exams in terms of studying, then afterwards the teachers try get your big projects out of the way so that they can finish the syllabus and revise for prelims and finals. Once school is done, it gets very calm with the only demand being studying for finals.
Oh, nice!
My parents got me an intuos too (haah... sorry for the time gap. I got it about a week ago/ a bit more recently)
it's the art model, so its a good small size and I'm loving it at the moment! *gently shoves the Kirby characters I've been drawing in paint at youΒ sta.sh/2h2boghoxee?edit=1 *
Though I must admit that it's a bit difficult to adjust after relying on a mouse for so long xD
π: 0 β©: 1
That's true! Yay us, college kids!
Yeah, I have a bunch of projects, thankfully a lot of them are art/creative writing based so they're fun, but still a lot of pressure. Thankfully, I only have to take one final! (and knowing how forgetful my teacher is she actually might forget to make it...yikes)
Nice!!! Tablets are so much fun. I wish I got to use mine more, but I have so little time that whenever I get time to draw I usually just find it easier to reach for a sketchbook. I don't know what program you're using but Medibang (medibangpaint.com ) is a really nice free one. It lets you vary the width based on pressure (good for lineart) and do layers. Also, just because it is a different medium, I'd recommend looking up some tutorials on how to use the tablet properly, cause there's a lot more you can do with it.Β
Also, this might be kinda weird, but do you have a Skype? I like talking to you but I'm sorta starting to phase out of using deviantart, and it would be cool if we could chat more easily / not through comments. If you don't have one / don't want to give it to a weird american on the internet, I get it though. Just thought I would ask cause it could make talking easier

Yeah. When I applied for uni course, building up the portfolio they wanted was a bit @ A@.
Ooh, That's a bit nice! You dont have to stress too much about finals then x3 (Also that sounds really bad. Maybe make a little sticky note saying "make final exam" and attach it to her laptop? that way it will forever haunt her until she does it. ...or she'll just throw it away, but the fact that a student had to remind her will haunt her. xD
The teachers at my high school lost the IT theory prelim exam and spent half an hour looking for it. Luckily the test was only supposed to start a bit later so we didn't lose time from them looking for it.)
Yeah! It's been great fun! I'm so used to SAI so I'm probably going to stick with it though. But it is nice to actually use the software to its fullest. Though I had to delete this one brush I always used because while it works great with a mouse, it doesn't work with tablet because of how you need to use it =7=;;
No, it doesn't sound weird at all! I'd love to have you on! Though I'm using Discord more because its a lot easier on the computer than Skype. I still have Skype if you don't want to use Discord, but only on my phone.
Would you mind if we shared deet deets through notes though? The internet has many lurkers >w>
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I applied to one art school and building up the portfolio was intense.Β
See, the thing about this teacher is she gives us so many points during the year that it doesn't really matter whether we have a final exam or not, and the school isn't going to check her on that. So I'm sorta hoping she does forget XD
Oh, you have SAI! I didn't realize that, SAI is a great program. And once you get used to the tablet you'll never be able to go back to the mouse, i promise. I can't do mouse art, though I've tried :'D
And awesome! I can download discord, that's no problem. Actually seems like a cool program. And of course, I can note you, I don't want to have internet creepers on my tail either XD. Either I'll download discord then note you my deets, or I'll forget and you can note me your stuff XD.Β

EEK FORGIVE ME OH GREAT GREY-SENPAI-SENSEI-KUN-CHAN-SAMA-SAN *BOWS* *HITS HEAD ON FLOOR*...OW...
So, how are you on your side of the planet? It's been a while since my last session of bothering ya B)
I managed to fall, bruise a knee and have the other knee be sore instead.Β

YOU SHALL ADDRESS ME AS GREY SAMA, AND BOW LOWER!
good, super busy at animation camp. Super sleepy
Oh no, you need to wear kneepads. That will solve all your life problems. They'll even do your taxes.
π: 0 β©: 1
OKAY ARIGATO GREY SAMA *ATTEMPTS TO BOW* *THE FLOOR IS IN THE WAY* *WOW ROOD FLOOR, GETTING THE WAY OF MY BOWING*
Oho nice!Β Sucks about being tired tho. Hope you are at least learning stuff, broadening your horizons, finding tiny empires to conquer...
Also speaking of camps, my knowledge of American camps comes from Disney channel, so now I'm curious: Are you in the middle of nowhere by a lake? Because that's where camps seem to exist according to TV. XD
THEY DO TAXES!? Wow, I did not know this. I (k)need to get ten right now!
π: 0 β©: 1
YES YOU MUST TUNNEL INTO THE FLOOR TO BOW PROPERLY
Yeah, I know I'm going to major in animation and physics now. It's gonna be great.
No I'm at the Cleveland institute of art, which is in the middle of a city. It's basically pre-college.
I know, knee pads have many wonderful uses people never even consider. Do you know they also mow the lawn?

Oh hey I was just passing by the neighbourhood and I saw this awesome thing you had and

YOU CAN'T PROVE ANYTHING
YOU DID IT DIDN'T YOU
YEAH YOU DID AND NOW YOU'RE BLAMING IT ON ME
How has life been on your hemisphere? It's getting colder so you should be having spring springynessessess about now.
π: 0 β©: 1
YOU DID IT!!!
BANANANANNANNANANANANΒ A WILD GREY APPEARS!!!
Yup, all springtimey. People won't stop mowing grass and it's annoying.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
AHHH HELP ME!!
WOLFSTAR RUNS AWAY!!
Ugh, that sucks.
but hey, it is spring, so you get perks like sunlightΒ
and
uh
bees?
and.... uhm
an extra excuse to eat ice cream? (apart from the excuse of just eating it anytime because anytime is ice cream time)
π: 0 β©: 1
GREY GIVES CHASE WITH A HALBERD!!!
I like cold though. We should just freeze the earth's orbit so i can have cold always and you can have warm. It's the perfect plan.Β
And I eat far too much ice cream.
π: 0 β©: 1
WOLFSTAR IS RUNNING AND SCREAMINGΒ
OH GOD SOMEONE HALP ME PLS
Yeah, but then it will be warm on my side
I don't like warm months either. 0^0
Mostly because everyone HAS to have a fan on, which are loud, headache inducing, and annoying to my hair. and believe me dealing with the people that need them on 24/7 is hell. And the fans themselves are hell. And temperature itself is hell. and the bees are hell. and hell is hell.
How about we settle this problem with going to another planet and then blowing up earth and its darned weather system
π: 0 β©: 1
GREY PULLS OUT A CHAINSAW
I vote Europa, then we could build a cool mermaid city under the ice. And Fans don't work underwater, as well as there are no bees underwater.
π: 0 β©: 1
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHWAIT
CHAINSAWS!?!?
OH I CAN HANDLE CHAINSAWS
*PULLS OUT CHAINSAW* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAGSDFUHFSDGASFDGJFADSKLGUASDLKGUSN
ooo good idea. Plus its name sounds like a fantasy land, so extra bonus points. Now we just need to make merpeople genetics, make a small army, take over the planet and it will all go swimmingly~
π: 0 β©: 1
YEAH CHAINSAW BATTLE!!!
*EPIC GUITAR MUSIC STARTS PLAYING*

Grey my hands are cold why do we not have hand hair I mean it's the part of my body that cant wear shoes and function at the same time and roasting them in front of a heater only does so much DX
also did you see the sun and moon news?!?!
π: 0 β©: 1
OH YEAH
That's so dumb we should be like hobbits and have hairy hands and feet, and then we wouldn't have to wear gloves or shoes.
YES I'm stuck between Litten and Rowlet! They're both SO ADORABLE
π: 0 β©: 1
YEAAAAHHHHH
Godammit evolution you had one job. ONE JOB. GG
I knooooooooooowww. So far I'm going with Litten, dunno why but despite Rowlet being a cutie patoot, something about its design rubs me the wrong way.
π: 0 β©: 1
WOOOOOOOOTΒ
And we don't have gills or wings either, you dun fucked up evolution
Huh, that's fair. I Think I'm going with Rowlett though, i like owls too much
π: 0 β©: 1
HAWHAW YEAAAAAAHHHHHH
Plus dinosaurs died out but chickens didn't. How does that work???????? Why can't I have a rideable velocorapter with laserbeam eyes??? evolution why did you do this to us?!?!?
I discussed Rowlett with the two people in my grade that follow pokemens. Maybe I don't like rowlett because it doesn't look like a grass starter compared to previous generations (It has very little bits of green in its design, but no direct plant-ish themes), but who knows, maybe it'll turn into some awesome Hawaiian nature guardian thing.Β
I'm gonna go with both, because two versions mean an excuse to run around the exact same game twice but with different 'mons. I might even do the thing I did with X and challenge myself not to use any water types ever.
Also, Popplio, what do you think of it?? Most people seem to not like it or not care about it. I can't help think that it looks okayish but it's artwork makes it look like a flat piece of paper and not very appealing.
π: 0 β©: 1
OOOOOOOHHH YEAAAAH
That's true, it has leaf feathers though and that's boss.Β
Popplio is sort of lame. I dunno, it just isn't interesting. The others are so well designed and that one is meh.
π: 0 β©: 1
Leaf feathers are the best, not doubt about that. Though I wonder if Rowlett is part bowling ball, or maybe coconut, because then it can learn rollout! xD
Maybe because Popplio is too big and has too much blank space? Like if it had polka dots on its tail maybe it'll look a bit more appealing? (plus a bit more clown like)
π: 0 β©: 1
I want to go bowling with a roulette so bad
I think it's poplio's dopey face personally. It just looks like an ugly cartoon character while the others are done in a much nicer style
π: 0 β©: 1
Plus that snazzy leaf bow tie makes you look at least ten times fancier
Yeah that cone mouth looks bad, it would have been better if GF went with a more canine like mouth like samurott, plus the head is wayy too big

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY FRIEND!! I am sad to say that I'm quite busy at this time so I wasn't able to draw you birthday art. But I hope you have a wonderful day!!
