Description #20 - Colorless. I have been feeling like a bit of a Photoshop snob of late, and I really do like to just draw sometimes without thinking "Ok, now how am I going to jazz this up with Photoshop?" So I looked around my art supplies and found out that I had a charcoal pencil and a graphite stick I had never used! Hot diggity damn and Holy Carp too! So I decided to draw profiles (because I don't feel confident with profiles and need to practice ) of Hitsu and Hyourinmaru (whom I have never drawn!). They are both reference-tastic! But my reference for Hyourinmaru was about and inch and a half square. It was great. So anyway, yeah, this is what all my drawings usually look like before I take them to Photoshop and work my magic. That's right, sloppy with lots of mistakes! But I refuse to put this in scraps, because I like it's sketchy sloppiness damnit! And no, I will not be taking this to Photoshop to have magic worked upon it, EVER!!!

Drawn with charcoal pencil and graphite stick

Hey! I likes it! If you don't mind... I'm gonna do something like what Kaanarinac did, and Photoshop it myself! Though it might take a while, I shall finish it! With my amazing Photoshop 6! That has glitches!

I just love the look of pencil sketches and drawings. They kind of show the fluidity of the act of drawing, as opposed to the precise work in photoshop. This is a cool drawing! Hitsu looks so intense too!!

Great job. What I see that I think is important with profiles is that it doesn't look forced in the pic. It works well with the composition.

And I love his expression. I just keep staring at him. The knitted brow... the mouth slightly open... a look of intense concentration... Where are they? What are they doing? We don't know exactly, but it's something serious.

Or perhaps he just discovered that the division headquarters have been trashed by a drunken Matsumoto?

Oh deffinately the last option. He knows that she won't help clean up so he'll just get her out of the way by freezing her into a block of ice while he cleans up! Ah the burden of being Captain. *sigh*

Is Hyourinmaru magic? And he looks pretty huge--I wonder if he'll help or hinder the cleaning-up process? Meh--he could just supervise from the doorway. "You missed ANOTHER spot."

begger4mcgregor In reply to amzimme [2006-09-01 19:05:08 +0000 UTC]

He is the physical manifestation of Hitsugaya's sword, like it's personally. He's a giant dragon made of ice. Hitsu can control the weather when he's really pissed! I don't think he'd be much help cleaning, as he'd be so big he's probably rip the building appart. I love the idea of him nagging Hitsu from the doorway

Haha. Hyourinmaru has become quite the smartass! It only makes sense that a cocky little smart-assed bastard like Hitsugaya (OMGWTFBQQ!!!!!!!1!!!!!eleven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!purple!!!!!!!!!1 I him), would have a sword that could dish it right back at him.

OH MY GOD!!! You recognized that!!! I was hoping you would (hey--Alan Rickman, right? He's yer bitch!) but I thought it might be kind of a stretch... especially since I have no idea how to spell Grapthor, haha. BUT OH MAN!!! YOU TOTALLY CAME THROUGH!!! as always, I guess I shouldn't be surprised anymore, but SCORE! I do try to reference solid material, though, thankee.

As for the homicide/suicide, I dunno, that's a good question. I think I'll have to duke it out with an emoticon. Whoever dies can claim the title of avenger. Here we go:

me--> him-->



so begins the epic battle...

What was that about sucking at profiles? He looks AMAZING!!! I feel like I'm looking at the manga, seriously.

YOU SAID HOLY CARP! YESSSS!!! Inside joke-tastic. I love typing that now--it makes me feel so superior or something, because I know people will look at it and go, "HA! They made a typo!" And I can just give a supercilious Snape-like sneer at the heathens because I. Know. Better.

Or something like that. Anyway, it makes me grin every time I see it. Soon--SOON it will catch on, and then Phase One of my plan (Taking Over the World, v. VIII, clearly labeled and cleverly concealed on top of my desk) will be complete!!! MWAHAHAHA! MWAHAHAHA! MWAHAHAHA! MWAHAHAHA! MWAHAHAHA!

Anyway--I love Hyourinmaru (and love his name EVEN MORE, if that's possible), and Hitsu looks PERFECT! (I feel like I've just graduated from Basic Bleach or something--I said Hitsu! I abbreviated his name! I get to sit on the SECOND step, now! Oooooooh...)

Thanks, I think there's still something wrong with his nose, but perhaps I'm being over critical? Oh damnit I forgot his nostil!!!! Meh, tis no matter?!?! I had fun!

Yes I did! It was all for you, and so you and I could share Snape-like sneers at the heathens. Silly heathens, carp is for... um... cool people!

I'm afraid Hyourinmaru (who's name I love as well, it's so fun to say!) looks more like a deformed dog than a dragon! Poor guy.

You know, he doesn't really need a nostril. It's one of those details that your mind just sort of fills in on its own. This is clearly a face. And faces have nostrils riiiiight... THERE. So it SEEMS like it's there, you know it's there, it's just not marked.

Awesome! Valedictorian! And I didn't even have to DO anything! *ahem*

Holy carp! Today is my eleventy-first birthday--I'm eleventy-one today! Now... I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-a-vis a valedictorian speech, and so it is my very good honour to graduate and you may call me the Hero of Ca-anton, the man they calllllllll Jayne!



He has no NOSTRIL?! Well, perhaps that's fortunate for him. Perhaps Hyourinmaru forgot to bathe for the past week.

Hyourinmaru most likely doesn't bathe often, so you may be right. And it's certainly a good excuse for my screw up!

Mm-hmm. I've heard of those puzzles. Puddles, I mean, although puzzles can be hazardous when swallowed--or may cause brain implosion when all completed only to find that there's a piece missing. But those puddles--one attacked my sister. Yep. I have--well, HAD--a sister. Before the whole "puddle" incident. I don't like to talk about it much... It's very tragic.

Also embarrassing. I mean, a PUDDLE? I SHARE those genes!!!

He could trip people! A puddle can be like a well-placed banana peel.

Speaking of which--are banana peels really that slippery?

A conversation between a new recruit and a veteran of the 10th division

Shinigami 1: THAT'S our CAPTAIN?!?! He's just a little kid!!!! Even I could kick his ass!

Shinigami 2: No man! Shut up!!! Don't piss him off!!!

Shinigami 1: Why not? Ooooo, he gonna tell his mommy on me??

Shinigami 2: No man... the PUDDLES!!! *shudders at the horrible scarring memory*

Shinigami 1: Puddles? You're kidding right?

Shinigami 2: *mutters about Charlie being around every corner and when Hitsugaya looks over the see what the hell these 2 idiots keep going on about, screams and runs off into the distance*

Shinigami 1:

*Hitsugaya then slips on a very slippery banana peel carelessly left by the new recruit. He soon learns to fear his new young captain and the PUDDLES OH GOD THE PUDDLES*

I'm sorry about your sister and you sharing her death-by-puddle genes. That's gotta suck

But I am going to miss looking across the hall and either seeing you guys in the room (especially the significant glances toward each other when there were people in the hall being stupid) or seeing your artfully (and quite attractively ) decorated door and mood maps. *tear* But oh man, you have an apartment!

I'll keep a journal of their doings so I can tell you guys all about them and then we can reminisce about the good ol' days... when Pluto was a planet and we could walk across the hall... where you guys had a working heater.... *flashback music*

I bet they'll be prissy little fake-blond freshmen. It will hurt my soul to see them giggling and whoring in your guys' room. I mean, that room is... it's SACRED! It's just WRONG for someone else to be there! They don't DESERVE it! They don't know what to do with a room that awesome! But it won't be awesome anymore... The very room is going to mourn your absence.

Oh man! We should decorate the hallway in black! Or just that area. But that might creep them out, huh?
