Hey! Happy New Year! I haven't heard from you in so long and thank you for still having any interest in my work. lol. I'm sorry I haven't been active in so long nor uploaded any new work. I've done a few portraits of dogs for a friend and some digital art that's different from my usual stuff. I didn't think any watchers would be interested in it but I guess I'll upload them anyway. How are you doing by the way?

autumnprincess In reply to TeamMatrix12 [2013-01-07 16:12:59 +0000 UTC]

Hi! Happy New Year to you as well! I'm good
I am DEFINITELY still interested in your work, you are incredibly good
Lately I have not had the opportunity to make any art at all
as I'm working in the Epcot center in Orlando, Florida
I'm working six days a week at the moment,
and I have not had the chance to go to an arts and crafts store to buy artsy stuff so... :C
Other than that I'm good
Have you seen the Hobbit btw? I don't know if you're in to Lord of the Rings and stuff but...
It was really amazing!
How are you these days?

TeamMatrix12 In reply to autumnprincess [2013-01-07 23:56:10 +0000 UTC]

You work in Disney World? That's really awesome! How are you liking it so far? I was working a lot too, three jobs at one point. I was working at Universal Studios Hollywood this past September and October for Halloween Horror Nights 2012. It was a blast scaring people as a zombie, lol. All I've been doing is work and a little video game before I go to bed. Do you play any games? I wish I had more time for art.

I hope to see more of your work soon as well.

I am a huge fan of Lord of the Rings and even bought the trilogy again in Bluray. I've been dying to see The Hobbit though, but haven't had a chance... Hopefully really soon! I did read the book many years ago and totally forgot that one of the dwarves had my little brother's name, Nori.

autumnprincess In reply to TeamMatrix12 [2013-01-08 07:07:38 +0000 UTC]

I do like working for Disney...kind of...
I love that they go to great lengths to ensure that their guests
feel welcome and important and wanted. However they drive their
employees a little hard sometimes.
I do however love all the people I have met thanks to this program
I have met people from all over the world and made great friends ^^
I live together with three Germans, one other Norwegian girl, a Canadian and two girls from Great Britain so that is really cool

I do not really play video games,
but it is only because I never got any gaming consoles
(of any kind) when I was younger...
would like to try it though
I used to watch my friend play Silent Hill and assassins creed
I think Assassins Creed looks pretty cool I also think Skyrim and Zelda looks brilliant, and Final Fantasy

Well you should look forward to the Hobbit!
It was great! Except for the fact that they are making
it in three parts so that I have to wait forever to see
all of the story -__-''
It is so cool that your little brother is named Nori!
I have to admit though, Kili and Fili have always been
my favourite dwarves

I totally get what you are saying about working and then going straight to bed :/ I usually just watch an episode of some TV-series and then it is "lights out" But three jobs! Wow! I don't know how you did that "I bow to a skill far greater than my own"(Sweeney Todd reference) Working in Universal sounds AMAZiNG" I would love to work in Harry Potter World, that would mean the...well...it would mean the world to me XB Well, I hope we both can find time to make some art

TeamMatrix12 In reply to autumnprincess [2013-01-08 10:35:49 +0000 UTC]

Yea, that is true I heard they were really strict with their employees. I guess they have to be in order to keep the park the happiest place in Earth. I heard you guys have a point system, if I'm not mistaken. I hope it hasn't been a problem for you.

That's really great to hear you met so many people. I can't believe you're living with that many people! Sounds like it's pretty crowded.

Aww, really? I hope you do get a chance to play something. Those are all great games that you mentioned. I'm starting to think you'll enjoy an open-world fantasy adventure game. You should definitely play Kingdom Hearts!

I'm kinda glad that they're trying to extend it. I do hate the wait, but I'm always happy with more time in Middle-Earth.

It's not because Kili and Fili are the younger and more attractive looking dwarves is it? Jk

I haven't seen Sweeney Todd yet but I'll be sure to check it out. Did you get a chance to check out Harry Potter World at least? I always thought Florida gets all the neat stuff.

I do too. In fact, I would like to dedicate my next pencil art piece to you though since you've been actively watching ever since I joined. Anything you would like to see? Harry Potter? Hobbits? Hairy Hobbits?

autumnprincess In reply to TeamMatrix12 [2013-01-09 06:34:42 +0000 UTC]

yes, they are really strict, and they do have a point system,
however I have not had any problems with it so far
The problem is trying to get a vacation at some point,
they're kind of greedy when it comes to giving people time off :S

It is pretty crowded, but we all work different hours,
and lately we have had pretty long shifts so I don't really notice how many we are as none of us are home at the same time... :S

I hope I get to play some games too! I will definitely
buy an X-box or PS3 or something when I go back to Norway
What would you recommend?
I have actually heard of Kingdom Hearts,
it is the one with Sora and Roxas and mickey and Donald right?

I agree! I love that we get more time in Middle Earth
And...I do like Kili(young and handsome) in the movie,
HOWEVER I did also like those characters in the book

I did get to go to Harry Potter World and I LOVED it!
Especially the ride inside the castle, it was absolutely brilliant
Now i've got two of the Hogwarts founders on Chocolate Frog cards,
and I have Dumbledore
Still lack the coolest ones though :/
Salasar Slytherin and Godrick Gryffindor.

You would dedicate a piece to me!?
That is incredible I have no idea!
Anything Harry Potter Related or Lord of the Rings
or the Hobbit would be amazing!
Just have fun with it if you really want to dedicate
a piece to me, I don't want to restrain your creativity.
A crossover would be VERY cool, though I know that can be hard...
(I'm not gonna get greedy or demanding )
If you want something more specific I think
Fred and George, Bellatrix, Lucius or the Marauders
are the coolest characters in HP,
so any of them would be great.
In LOTR and The Hobbit I see awesome characters everywhere,
so any one of them would be great

Thank you so much! It really means the world to me
(Don't stress it though, only make it if you are inspired
and have the time)
I adore your pencil art(pencil is my favourite type of art...and maybe watercolours), however as I mentioned I would really like to see your skills with other media as well, since you mentioned you had been doing some of that as well

TeamMatrix12 In reply to autumnprincess [2013-01-09 09:05:14 +0000 UTC]

That's great, I'm really glad you haven't had any problems and hopefully not anytime soon.
Are they really that greedy? I'm sorry, I hope you can catch a break.
I'd assume they would have plenty of workers to cover your shift since it's many people's dream to work there anyways.

That's good, glad to hear you all don't really get in each others' way. I'm still amazed at how you all made it work somehow.

I would suggest getting a PS3 if you can, preferably for the free online play. Ah, so you have heard of it!
Yes, that would be the game and I think you're going to love it!

They're going to re-release it in HD late this year so that would be the perfect time to get a PS3.

Haha, that's cool I understand. To be honest, I imagined many dwarves would resemble Gimli when I read the book. So when I saw pictures of Kili and Fili popping up for the movie, I couldn't believe they were dwarves.

Awesome! I'm glad you were able to experience it. That place looks amazing and I definitely want to experience it when I get a chance. I didn't know there was a ride inside the castle! Was it scary? Were there floating candles in the castle?
That's cool, I hope you can get your hands on those cards as well

Those are very great suggestions and now I kinda have an idea to work with!

I like drawing for special friends and I think you deserve it. Thank you for being an active watcher. I feel like such a letdown so it's the best way to make it up. I'll definitely try to push for more drawings this year also. I'll try not to delay it for too long, so I hope you continue to be around to see it when it's done.

autumnprincess In reply to TeamMatrix12 [2013-01-10 17:35:40 +0000 UTC]

I'll try to get the PS3
I think I'll like Kingdom Hearts too.

I also imagined Kili and Fili much like Gimli,
so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw them in the movie.
I just always felt like those two were the closest of the dwarves,
almost like Merry and Pippin.

The ride inside the castle is a simulator so it feels
like you are flying together with Harry and the others across the
school grounds
Then you are being chased by the dragon from the 4th movie
and they have made a dragon that blows hot air right in your face
when you pass it. and they have dementors(not that cool looking),
but scary enough. They have floating candles at the beginning of
the ride

I'm glad you have an idea, can't wait to see it,
and as I said, don't stress it

Thank you! You're a great friend
And you're not a letdown
I'll definitely stick around to see more of your work
I think I'll try to do something MARVEL as well, I just LOVE your Batman drawings.

TeamMatrix12 In reply to autumnprincess [2013-01-11 07:40:13 +0000 UTC]

Wow, that sounds like a lot of fun! I can already imagine what it might feel like. The way you described it reminds me a lot of Transformers the Ride. I don't know if you ever got a chance to experience that. It's also a simulator and there's a scene where Megatron shoots directly at you in slow motion and you can feel the heat emanating from the shot! It's my favorite ride simulator so far, but maybe Harry Potter could top that one day. I do like dragons! Btw, are you riding on a broom the entire time?

I'll definitely surprise you with it. I've never actually done any Harry Potter artwork before even after seeing all the films, sadly. So I'm excited that this will be the first and I'll be sure to make it awesome!

Thank you so much, that means a lot!

I'm a huge comic superhero fan and Batman is my favorite. Hopefully I can get around to doing more Batman art when I get a chance.
I'm really looking forward to seeing some MARVELous stuff from you!

autumnprincess In reply to TeamMatrix12 [2013-01-11 16:52:00 +0000 UTC]

Hahahaa MARVELous I'll try,
I really need to work on drawing muscles :S
I hope you get to try the Harry Potter ride,
It was great, but no, you are not sitting on a broom.
You are actually sitting on a bench,
because they have "rescued you" from a boring History of Magic lesson
and so they cast a spell on your school bench
and you're flying around.
But you sort of forget that you're sitting on a bench,
because it feels very real

Have not tried the Transformers ride,
however they have something similar called "Spider-man"
which sounds almost the same
The villains are trying to kill you though,
while Spider-man is trying to
keep you and the rest of the city safe.
But then you're in a car.

I can not wait to see the picture! So excited for Harry Potter-picture! I know it will be amazing!

Batman is my favourite too, but Iron man is also awesome!

TeamMatrix12 In reply to autumnprincess [2013-01-12 06:55:35 +0000 UTC]

Same here, drawing muscles can be pretty confusing if you're not sure what it should look like. It's been a while since I've doodled any superheroes in my sketchbook, so I know it's going to look horrible now.

A bench? Omg, that sounds like so much fun!

Oh, I forgot they had that ride. I've never been on it since it's only in Florida, but it definitely sounds similar. In my opinion, I think that idea works better for Transformers anyways.

Yea, I want his suit!
So what MARVEL character do you think you'll be working on?
