  Sup' everybody? I'm on Spring Break! I love it! I'm going to have so much time to draw and ponder the mysteries of the universe! I was up until 2 (though my parents made me go to bed at 11. >:P I'm so sick and tired of them doing what's best for me. XD Just kidding!) last night drawing and Blendering. If you don't know what "Blender" is, it's a 3-D modeling and animation software package. There's a completely free download at www.blender3d.org, plus lots of tutorials. I highly recommend it! Anyway, on Blender, I made this really cool abstract sculpture that from most angles looks like a jumble of random shapes. But, if you look at it from one special angle, it looks like a cross! I think it's really cool!

And as for the turtle question yesterday. I'd like to congratulate Miyoko-chan and Flueky for guessing the correct turtle...

TAMA-CHAN! (*Myuh!*) I was right on the money that Miyoko-chan would know it (I would have mentioned that Flueky would know it to, but she's been busy lately and I didn't expect her to see this post). For those of you who don't know, Tama-chan is a flying hot-springs turtle from one of (if not the) best mangas ever, Love Hina. \m/^_^\m/

I thought I would post this drawing up for Miyoko-chan. I thought this was a great example of her simplified but wonderfully vibrant drawing style, as well as a sneak-peak of one of her stories (undisclosed weather it will be a manga or not).

This is Iami and Makoto. Iami is the heroine (ha, "heroine". That's a drug.), and Makoto is the villain. So why are they hugging? Let me quote Erin-chan on that: "they kinda have this twisted love-hate relationship". I don't know why, but something about that idea just got me hooked. The process of confused illogical and romantic feelings is always interesting to watch characters sort out. I can't wait to see more!

So onto the main course. I need your guy's help on something. I've noticed that almost every anime/manga has a one or two liner that describes the series and is often ironic or funny. Here are some examples:
Love Hina: "Love hurts"
Witch Hunter Robin: "Let the hunt begin"
Kenshin: "Live by the sword, die by the sword"
Full Metal Alchemist: "What are you willing to sacrifice?"
Megas XLR (though not technically anime): "Mischief ways a ton"

You get what I mean?
Anyway, I've been trying to come up with one for Ghost Hunter, and I think I've found some good ones.

I'm stuck between "Who ya' gonna' call?", and "Enter night" (Enter Sandman is the theme for my manga after all).

I think those are my 2 best ones, but I've thought up a lot more. So, which of the following do you like best?

"I Ain't 'Fraid of No Ghost"

"Speak of the Devil"

"Thou Shalt not be Afraid of the Terrors by Night"

"Just who's hunting who?"

"Keep the Faith"

"'Till the Sandman, he comes..."

"Say your Prayers"

"Darkness Walks"

"We're Off to Never-Never Land..."

"Tread lightly, for darkness follows closely behind"

"Join us, as we wait until it sleeps"

"Don't say a word"

"I banish thee back to whence you came"

"We all have our crosses to bear"

"Pray the Lord my soul to take"

"You don't scare me"

Please keep in mind that the central theme of Ghost Hunters is the power your faith has to protect you from the forces of evil. Your opinion will really help me out! Thank you so much for your time!

Thanks again, guys, and I'll see you tomorrow!
