I do not like the crapfest known as Mermaid Melody what-so ever. The show's crap, and that's why I chose it.

Happy Valentines everyone?

So, it's almost Valentines. And my lame-ass anime club decided to hold another contest.
Time to pwn again.

This time, however, along with drawing fanart, we have to make it into a card. That means I have to come up with some sentimental message to stick in the card, and even a backside. The backside is done, but I still need to think up some message--or actually, change the one I have now. I reads:

To show my love
This Valentines
I bought a card
With a dumb rhyme.

Please love me
I'm desperate.

Yeah, behold my poetry skills at 2:30 in the morning.
I've already asked a couple of friends, and they've given me an idea.

As I've mentioned before, I hate Mermaid Melody. It's such a waste of my time and the producers. One word to summarize it? Stupid
If you've never watched it, good. It's basically a rip off of Sailor Moon except the Sailor Scouts now sing and instead of being princesses from the planets, they're now princess mermaids, and it's worse.
I guess by now you should have realized that I chose the anime for my fanart based on how shitty it is.

Anyways, I think I might win again. I didn't try that hard to make this entry look nice, but once I look at the entries handed in so far... looks like I could have tried less.
Granted, seems like my friends and I are gonna be the only people to submit again. They rushed their entries, but psh, like it matters.
Oh, except that one girl who entered.
Whatever, we're gonna win anyways.

On another note, they never gave me my prize from the last contest yet.


Made with openCanvas, the rest of the card was made in PS

I don't think the series is that bad. While the plot leaves loose ends untied (such as the limits of a Panthalassan's powers) and it is somewhat similar to Sailor Moon, it does bring new elements into the possibilities you could add into an anime.

Overall, I like the show, and your art is fantastic!

Thanks. Oh well, I guess anything could really be sweetened, even stupid stuffs, if you know how to do it.
But yeah, thanks again.

lol @ poem and mermaid rant xD So, so, didja win? (xD uber late) Oh man, I really love the colors on this one; they're like the aurora borealis in pink form..? Doesn't make sense, ah well...You did really well on her body, the only thing that's kinda bothering me is her boobs...I can't exactly point out what's wrong but...ah..I dunno! Maybe they're too far apart? maybe...anyways, I had to stop myself from writing a ridiculously long message so thank the gods! wonderful picture, as usual ^_~

Um... well, SINCE THEY HELD BACK THE DEADLINE TILL LAST LAST WEEK, I haven't found out yet. xD It's not even a Valentine contest anymore, it's more like mid-March contest. D8
And yeah... the body. Those were botherin me too... for various reasons. WELL, doesn't matter, cause even if I don't try, well, the least I'd get is second place, right? xD SO all gud.
And lol. But I see your other comments are long. xD

o_O but...I mean, isn't Valentine's day in February?! The deadline shoulda been Valentine's day! Well tell me if you do win (which you probably will...) Gee, so when you do try to you get, like...0th place or something?

I KNOW. LIKE COME ON, IT'S NOT EVEN A VALENTINE'S CONTEST ANYMORE.
The sad thing is, even after spring break, we still don't have our results. "Too busy." COME ON. HOW MUCH EFFORT DOES IT TAKE TO LOOK THROUGH LIKE, WHAT? FIVE PICTURES?
But yeah, I'll be sad if that happens.

Lol, well, ah, it'll be a nice surprise when they finally do tell you you won.

Cause' you know you will! (cheesy wink)

lol, well, not really, cause I had expected someone else to win. Like, seriously, why would anyone else even bother trying when they already know that there's someone better? >_>

AND I PROVED EVERYONE WRONG, CAUSE - GASP - SOMEONE ELSE WON.
Which is fine, I guess. I was expecting it, after all. :3

ROFL at your poem, Yukiko-chan! It's full of win. I mean, it's even better than anything Lovesick Weirdo could come up with. XD
(although it describes him perfectly) o_o

Tsh. I have yet to hear of a school anime club that is NOT, in some way, lame. >>;
On the bright side, at least you can show off your pro art skillz~
Better than hiding them inside yourself. xD;

...like me. -rolls eyes-

Never watched it. Then again, the only anime I've watched the complete series of is CCS. And then a few episodes of DN. xD;

...your art is awesummm~
I would fave, but the combination of pink + a mermaid is kinda disgusting me at the moment. o_o;
Nothing to do with the quality of your artwork, though.

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-02-17 03:24:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeeeaaah! At least mine rhymed... or at least, it tried to lol. xD
Hm, that's true, but I doubt he'd be able to pick such a nice card.

...That's true. It's like anime is a codeword for lame. It's no wonder that in the beginning it's packed, and then the numbers slowly dwindle.
YEAH, AND I GET A WHOLE BUNCH OF FREE STUFF. But I show then in projects too.

...And you show your pro skillz in projects as well. x3

Nah, it's alright. =.= Pink = valentines, and the main character was pink, so I stuck to that. I'm not gonna make another PPGZ like pic... though the colors would be the same.

So keep your favs for something moar awesome. xD

Inkshadow In reply to YukikoSama [2009-02-17 04:00:28 +0000 UTC]

Are you kidding? He'd probably just write out a random little sentence on a lined sheet of paper and hand it to someone. O_o

Nah... I rush those, so no pro skillz there.

Lol, your art IS awesome.
Just... yeah. Pink + mermaids = ew. xD

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-02-18 22:02:27 +0000 UTC]

I know. It'd probably be Annie, if we were still back in Gr. 7, or anyone else who knows me. Kinda scary...
Actually, know someone fro Windermere... I hope he doesn't hunt her down. o.o

Just because it's rushed doesn't mean it isn't pro. That just makes it pro-er.

I know, I know. But it's an easy way to hit up the lame Valentine themes.

Annie... lol...
She apparently has a crush on my boyfriend. o-o;

Nah, my art is just amateur. n_n

YES. I never did a Valentine's Day picture for anyone else. I was gonna do a less-than-generic friendship-based picture, because heck, I think it's better than just focusing on all the lovey-dovey stuff. x3

I mean, that's pretty good too, but friends should be valued toooo~ 8D

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-02-22 21:17:34 +0000 UTC]

I know, I know.
Yeah, that's kinda... yeah...
I would say that they'll never be together, but...

I guess so. o.o But where's the Valentine-ness?
It's kinda funny, cause your Valentine pic is less lovey-dovey than your Christmas pic. xD
And yush, friends. Though I wouldn't give them Valentine hearts or roses on the day. xD

Inkshadow In reply to YukikoSama [2009-02-22 21:48:53 +0000 UTC]

Lol, yeah, I know. xD
The only thing I will say about her is that she wouldn't have to worry about the risk of threatening his pride, like I apparently do every day. 7.7

Inorite? xD
I still don't like drawing that stuff so much. Prefer sticking to the random stuff. And the occasionally more... thoughtful stuff.
Takara folded paper roses for people randomly before. XD

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-02-27 21:26:57 +0000 UTC]

I know, I know.
But I doubt they'll last very long regardless. Not to say that I don't wish them well, but highschool relationships rarely work out anyways.
And maturity levels.

Hrm, same here, or like random monster thingies.
But so long as I get to do what I want with it (and I don't have to overload it with holiday cliches) then I'm fine.
AW MAN, I WANNA LEARN HOW TO MAKE THEM TOO. Dx

Inkshadow In reply to YukikoSama [2009-02-28 21:15:13 +0000 UTC]

Yesyes, very true. Although this other guy said that it's probably because most people go by first impression of appearance, which is also true. =X
I don't need to hear people say that they like someone because of the way they look, because let's face it, that's rather sad.
Well, he can be pretty mature when he wants to be. Just not around my friends, and probably his friends, in which case he likes to try to weird them out. xD;
BUT YEAH.
Annie's apparently back with her boyfriend. o_o
I have no idea what happened there, and I'm not really that interested enough in other people's lives to bother finding out. xD

Random monster thingies, which are your counterparts to my random creature thingies. XD
Ask her to teach you~ Last year, she gave a "mini-lesson" to a few people. XD

Well, judging from Disney shows... I've always thought those relationships were especially sad cause sitcom relationships really never last.
And well, I guess that's a good thing. I knew that has to be some other reason as to why you liek him.

xD Yeah, I guess. Mine's a mostly humanized too, SO YEAH!
...ALRIGHT THEN! I wonder if it'll work through MSN too.

Inkshadow In reply to YukikoSama [2009-03-06 03:41:33 +0000 UTC]

Yesyes, he's very different to me than he is to other people. Maybe that's why other people don't liek him very much.

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-03-10 07:05:10 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... I don't know if that's a good thing or not, cause he can't possibly keep that act up forever. Eventually he'll have to treat you like he does everyone else... and, er, yeah...
Maybe he already is. o.o
But it's fine. So long as you are okay with how he acts, other people don't matter.

Me neither. o.o
I think drawing, but eh.
MSN...?

Heh, well, when he's being normal, he's a really nice person-- if he wants to be.

I can't even remember now. xD;

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-03-18 09:07:51 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I guess so. It would explain why you're together in the first place.
I don't really know.
ONE DAY - in a planet far far away - I'll meet him. Dx
Cause heck, I'm curious. ._.

Inkshadow In reply to YukikoSama [2009-03-18 15:56:25 +0000 UTC]

Lawl'd, you probably wouldn't like him. He has this weird thing where he tends to make other people annoyed... except me. Because he's usually different toward me than anyone else. -cough-

YukikoSama In reply to Inkshadow [2009-03-21 21:26:38 +0000 UTC]

Hey, I hang around this perverted guy, plus I'm friends with a jerk who has bipolar mood swings. Yeah, makes me sound stupid as well as other mean thing. And if he's not doing that, he's ignoring you.
I'm a lot more tolerant than you think, yo.

Plus, he's your boyfriend.
Can't be all that bad, right?
I wouldn't mind introducing you to Mr. Ass, cause despite his downfalls, I'm not ashamed to call him a friend. >.>

Inkshadow In reply to YukikoSama [2009-03-21 22:01:32 +0000 UTC]

Takara's been asking me if my bf's like that.
Sometimes he thinks a little weird. But usually he tries to spare me the details. Unless, of course, he wants to have a laugh at my expression when he says something strange. =O
Maybe I'll see if he'll come and stalk me on Friday. xD

Haha, well, everyone says he is.
Except me. But I'm biased, right? 8D
Like I said, he's a pretty awesome guy.
When he wants to be, that is.

Nobody's perfect.

HEHEHEHE, late reply.

Um... I think the things he doesn't spare you from is bad enough.
Liek yeah... if that's not the worst.
And why yush, he did come on Friday.
And it was a funny Friday.
*coughDreamzcough*

And mhm, I guess I should agree.
Well, I derno.
Your opinion, anyways.
But doesn't seem like he wants to be awesome a lot.

It was an interesting Friday. Didn't end very well, though. =[

That's becauuuuuuse... he usually doesn't like being awesome when there are other people around. -cough- ._.

That Friday was awesome, though. D:I thought it ended well - not for Dreamz, but we had a kick out of it...?
Or are you talking about something else?

So that time I saw him was NOT HIS FULL AWESOMENESS?
That is very intriguing.

I derno, Dreamz's willing-ness to reveal anything - even to strangers - is kinda, er, sad.

So that's how he is when he's normal?
Well, I guess I could tell due to that moment of unusual quietness.
