I&#39;m in school! 1st semester has started... <span class="postsmall" style="font-size: 75%">*study study study x3*</span> Thu, 24 Jul 2008 21:04:08 -0400 ~luna http://luna.animepaper.net Evil Justin calls me by me real name D8<br /> <br /> Lol, I don&#39;t think I&#39;ve had someone I haven&#39;t met call me by my real name. I guess I&#39;m more comfortable as Luna on the web XD ... But since we&#39;re buddies now, I&#39;ll get use to it, haha.<br /> <br /> Mmm... cream of broccoli..... Thu, 24 Jul 2008 17:55:03 -0400 `asa01 http://asa01.animepaper.net *looks down* ehehe, so luna is rubbing it in, is she? &gt;xD well, as long as everything turned out fine, then it is okay.<br /> <br /> the stuff about the collab sounds good. :] and do not worry. there is still much work to do on my ruins wall &#45;&#45; most of the shading, smoke, sky, and some scratches/polishing off &#40;&lt;&#45;&#45;unintentional, lol, polishing off the wall by adding scratches...to the walls&#41; &#45;&#45; but i am not going to ruin the work that i have done by rushing. i have hopes for this one. :]<br /> <br /> engagement is not a word to be found in the dictionary of my friends and i, lol. and i cannot imagine it entering our vocabulary a few years down the road. same goes for living together and marriage. same age as you? is your AP age accurate?<br /> <br /> not so sure which one is easier. i am more interested in illustrator for the vector quality &#40;it is vector based unlike PS, after all&#41; and for capabilities that PS lacks. for example, i heard somewhere that you can see stuff past the edge of your canvas and more than once, i had wanted that ability in PS. i know, i can just expand the canvas and set up a top layer to show where the original canvas begins and ends, but still... and the gradient mesh tool sounds cool.<br /> <br /> i can imagine that walling has come a long way. the softwares improve. the community grows. the field of techniques and styles broadens. the number of critics also goes up and they develop finer and finer eyes. xD *gasp* you are reaching the end of your shelf life? where is your expiration date printed? D: quick, into the fridge! ...or maybe i should pickle you. 8] Wed, 23 Jul 2008 20:56:36 -0400 ~luna http://luna.animepaper.net Don&#39;t worry, even if I can&#39;t find a job and live in a dumpster, I&#39;ll still be drawing, lol. I&#39;m happy to read that you&#39;d like to see more 8&#41;<br /> <br /> I am STARVING. I&#39;ll go have some cereal now. Some crunchy cereal. Lol sorry. Tue, 22 Jul 2008 01:33:28 -0400 `chibimisao http://chibimisao.animepaper.net You enjoy moving in? D: But it&#39;s so troublesome. I mean like you have to get everything sorted out and shift it to the new place. Then there&#39;s also that thing about adapting to the new environment and all. Seems like too much trouble. So i don&#39;t like moving. =&#40;<br /> <br /> <br /> <blockquote class="quote"><div class="quoting">You said</div><div>I have a kind of perverse pleasure in packing and unpacking my stuff.<br /> </div></blockquote><br /> Lol! xD That&#39;s so weird. I&#39;ve never met anyone who loves packing and unpacking their stuff so much. xDD<br /> <br /> <br /> <blockquote class="quote"><div class="quoting">You again</div><div>Heh. You think your campus is huge, you haven&#39;t seen mine. Mine has hills, and even woods lol.<br /> </div></blockquote><br /> Wow that is big! o__o Woods and hills in the campus area itself? That is amazingly big. The biggest campus that i&#39;ve been on had a lake of it&#39;s own. But nothing like woods and hills. =O So i can&#39;t imagine how big your campus would be. O__O <br /> You&#39;re so lucky! You get to be by the beach all the time! That must be nice. I have&#39;nt gone down to the beach in ages! D:<br /> Yeah all my registration stuff has been settled now. ^__^ <br /> <br /> Haha roommate drama! Well i have&#39;nt experienced any big drama&#45;like scenes yet. And hopefully not any soon! ^^;<br /> <br /> Ouh cool a condo! Some of my friends are staying in condos too. But the rentals are way higher than apartments. =O<br /> Yeah well good luck on those classes then. ;D<br /> Oh yeah before i forget, how many subjects are you taking in total? Like throughout your whole degree program, how many subjects must you complete? I&#39;ve just found out that i have to do 24 subjects. o__o Never knew that i had to take that much. D: Sun, 20 Jul 2008 11:58:33 -0400 ~Isolde http://Isolde.animepaper.net Yay! thanks for adding me back, too!^^ so how are yah? <img class="emo-blingeye" src="http://static3.animepaper.net/images/emo/blingeye.gif" title="8&#41;E emoticon" alt="8&#41;E emoticon" /> Sun, 20 Jul 2008 03:03:29 -0400 ~luna http://luna.animepaper.net *gasp* You were on 9 hours ago! That means you&#39;re out of the hospital! Good!<br /> <br /> I am OK now. It was just a stomach ache mixed with jealousy. It happens every so often lol.<br /> <br /> All my characters look pretty much the same, so naw, I&#39;m not that creative. Plus, a lot of times I get inspiration for my characters from other characters so it&#39;s not like I think them up all by myself. But, as I learned from my creativity course, people make themselves uncreative by saying &quot;I am not creative,&quot; so I gotta stop thinking that way. Anywho, being able to draw buildings and stuff is amazing! Practice makes almost perfect, so you can draw people too! I need to start drawing things other than faces D8.<br /> <br /> Oh ho ho, I&#39;m drawing when I&#39;m not supposed to be. Tue, 15 Jul 2008 02:33:09 -0400 ^Yina http://Yina.animepaper.net Thank you so much for your comment and fave on my wallpaper <a class="posturl" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/wallpapers/Yina/item80229/">Sunrise, Sunset</a>! ;3<br /> <br /> buhuuu.. i&#39;m so sorry.. but I&#39;ve always thought you were female, cuz your name sounds so cute haha omg, please don&#39;t hate me O_O I think I have a serious problem.. *goes to emo doctor* Sat, 12 Jul 2008 13:55:27 -0400 `asa01 http://asa01.animepaper.net Hope it all went well. :]<br /> <br /> vectoring the birds...well, that&#39;s a whole lot of birds. &gt;__&gt; but i&#39;ll do it. they might match better with the girls that way. so for the bg, are we &#40;or you&#41; going from scan straight to wall or will there be changes? and what resolution&#40;s&#41;? just curious. and i&#39;ll give myself a deadline for the ruins wall. if i&#39;m not done by then, i&#39;m just gonna go ahead and start on the aria one.<br /> <br /> and i&#39;ve already seen your MT account lol. yup, very filled with magical girls and swirly lights. lots of blue too. when i started, i just walled whatever...a lot of GS/GSD stuff though. and then death note. hey, it&#39;s like a chronicle of whatever anime/manga i came into contact with. xD<br /> <br /> engaged? :O how old is your friend? <span class="postsmall" style="font-size: 75%">and who&#39;s carol? lily thinks i&#39;m her, lol</span> anyhow, i&#39;ve never used anything other than photoshop 7.0. i don&#39;t mind it but i&#39;d like to try out illustrator.<br /> <br /> some people retire from walling because of life &#40;and the time restrictions that come with it&#41;. and of course, over time, our interests change. i think it was tama&#45;neko, another waller who&#39;s been around since forever, who once put an expiration date on wallers. i forget the specific length but during that time, wallers crank out walls. then the productivity/interest just dies and the next generation takes over. Sat, 12 Jul 2008 11:54:19 -0400 ~Isolde http://Isolde.animepaper.net Hi! I love that recent wall of yours.<br /> <br /> and so I&#39;m watching you now.. do you want to be friends? Sat, 12 Jul 2008 11:07:22 -0400 `chibimisao http://chibimisao.animepaper.net Go for blue! I think it looks better. ;D Lol pink. xD The only time i&#39;ve seen a guy with pink hair was when i was watching The Amazing Race, and there was this couple who were goths and the guy had pink highlights. o__o<br /> Yup bright blue!! Go for it. Make sure you post a pic of yourself when you do get it done. ^__^<br /> <br /> <br /> <blockquote class="quote"><div class="quoting">You</div><div>Hopefully your move into uni wasn&#39;t too hectic. <br /> </div></blockquote><br /> Actually it was beyond hectic! X_x Just getting to the campus everyday is already a challenge...i mean i have to walk under the blazing hot sun everyday for a whole 15mins. That&#39;s how long it takes to get there from my apartment. I don&#39;t drive. .___.<br /> Then there were these probs with my enrollment and i had to go see so many people to get the prob resolved. Walking around the big campus was tiring too. It was hard to find my way to the certain offices/departments. &gt;_&lt; Thank goodness i have everything settled now. So i suppose next week won&#39;t be as hectic as this. ^^;<br /> <br /> I have&#39;nt met my roommate yet. She&#39;s still on holiday and went back to singapore to visit her family. But i heard from my other housemates that she&#39;s a nice girl, and she&#39;s in the same uni as me too. ^__^<br /> <br /> Yeah quite true. Im sure i&#39;ll find time to wall something. In fact i was working on one last night. I was bored and without an internet connection...so i walled. xD <br /> <br /> So how&#39;s things going with your uni life? Fri, 11 Jul 2008 04:02:45 -0400 `asa01 http://asa01.animepaper.net Haha you exaggerate. x] &quot;epic&quot; is too epic of a word to describe my stabs at scenic. anyway, i&#39;m already planning on changing the way i vector for this particular piece because i want to preserve the scan&#39;s soft coloring as much as possible. so how about this? although i can&#39;t say when i&#39;ll be getting around to it, i&#39;ll vector the girls and show you. if you feel that the product will go with your trademark softness, then we can collab. if not, then i&#39;ll go on and do the rest myself. :] &#40;bricks will be flying if somebody walls it before i/we am/are finished. D:&#41;<br /> <br /> today was a busy day at the hospital, so there was less dealing with forms, more walking around with patients and family members in tow and talking to them. but yeah, the exciting stuff lies beyond graduation.<br /> <br /> i think the MT version of SZ is called the sandbox? i went there once to see what it was like and it was pretty dead compared to SZ. and looking at the age for the modern AP &#40;it used to be purely a forum&#41;, you&#39;re right if you meant before AP&#45;with&#45;a&#45;gallery was made. not sure about AP&#45;as&#45;a&#45;forum. and lol, i can see that: so many magical girls with sparkles and lights and wings. :P<br /> <br /> you do sound old, reminiscing about the way things used to be. and i feel young, because i have no idea about these things. when you started walling, i haven&#39;t even heard of photoshop or the like. &#40;i&#39;m pretty slow about everything computer&#45;related.&#41; Mon, 07 Jul 2008 22:16:48 -0400 ~luna http://luna.animepaper.net I think I&#39;m the opposite of you in that chart, haha, except I have less creativity. No, come to think of it, I&#39;m not good at any of those things &#45;_&#45;<br /> <br /> I did play with the curves and all that but I still can&#39;t make out some parts, haha, and the quality of the scan isn&#39;t even that bad ._. Talk about being a <span class="poststrike" style="text-decoration: line-through;">newt</span> noob.<br /> <br /> Lol, why are you still friends with people who think you&#39;re 40.<br /> <br /> Hm, I feel like playing a joke on your manhood. The only way to save yourself is to submit a wallpaper before I do. But don&#39;t worry too much, lol, I still have a lot to do. But perhapsssssssss, I won&#39;t sleep tonight...... Mon, 07 Jul 2008 15:42:28 -0400 `asa01 http://asa01.animepaper.net *takes back my bricks* now i feel kinda guilty &gt;__&lt; because your proposal makes no sense. if you think about it, i am the only one getting something out of this: i get to wall that scan AND i get a new sig. are you sure you are okay with it, even with your 233 other choices? :O <span class="posttiny" style="font-size: 50%">the only logical compromise that i could come up with is a collab...but then that really depends on how you feel about it.</span><br /> <br /> the arch does have a weird effect on the bricks. &#40;which actually should be blocks. the difference? blocks are bigger.&#41; but i think i have figured out the problem. that particular surface does not face the viewer, necessitating a second perspective point. however, the current lines for the light gray bricks are not drawn with respect to such a vanishing point. i will also thin out that pillar of bricks too to make it harder to compare it to the medium gray bricks. this way, any mistake in perspective will be less noticeable. xD; i will show you once i have something to show.<br /> <br /> blowing off lint with an air hose. sounds fun. ever given folding hundreds of pieces of paper in perfect halves a try? but i guess it is tolerable to me since when i have to do monotonous work, the thinking part of my brain shuts off and time passes by without me noticing. helps minimize boredom.<br /> <br /> with the most recent dramas that i have seen &#40;which was during my summative evaluations and exam weeks *cough*&#41;, i cram&#45;watched them. it is a good thing they were all jdramas, as from what i gather, jdramas tend to be the shortest of the bunch.<br /> <br /> lol looking at that wall, you have sure come a long way. and that one is not the pretty girl type that most of your walls fall under. :O were you able to get any advice on it while it was still in progress? i remember getting help in SZ during my beginner days. xP Sat, 05 Jul 2008 14:56:20 -0400 `chibimisao http://chibimisao.animepaper.net Wooh green! Now that&#39;s a drastic change. That would be kinda cool for a once in a life time kinda thing. <br /> <br /> Of course i love getting A&#39;s..who does&#39;nt? o__o So i&#39;ll also be cutting back on my wallpapers. Haha i dunno how much would be left though. xD I mean even now im only walling like once every 3 months. Lol don&#39;t be surprised if i only make walls once a year once uni starts. xDD &#40;Hopefully not though..o_o&#41; I think i&#39;d lose all my walling skills by then. D:<br /> <br /> *looks up at your walling stats* Lol! I have the same walling speed as you...or maybe far slower... <span class="posttiny" style="font-size: 50%">oh and i watch you too! *clicks button and disappears*</span> Sat, 05 Jul 2008 11:36:01 -0400
