Is anyone else having this problem? I was going through my comments from my last post this afternoon and visiting sites and it said I had 13 pages of comments. Tonight when I went back to my comments to see if anyone else had come it said I had 14 pages but the comments said they were made yesterday. And then when commenting on some people’s sites, it said they had 6 comments or something but when I went to comment, it said they didn’t have any. Is anyone else getting that?

Some may remember last week or so I mentioned I was working on a commission drawing of Rinoa and Squall from Final Fantasy VIII. Many got really excited about it but I said not to get too excited because the person wanted me to work off a picture and it’s probably the most popular image of these 2. I really don’t like working from pictures anymore because I find it so boring but the customer REALLY wanted this image and she wanted it to be in black and white but have the feathers be in shades of pinks and lavenders. So here’s the finish piece:

For those who don’t know, black and white pencil work was the only medium I worked with for many years. It wasn’t till a little over a year ago that I started using color. I wont be uploading this into my FanArt gallery though because people through a hissy fit when I upload something that is re-drawn from a picture and then I’m accused of tracing>_< Even if it was traced(WHICH IT WAS NOT!) how the heck do you “trace” the shading? Feh! I’ll be uploading this onto my official website though soon so you guys can see a bigger version of it. Oh and yes, I got paid handsomely for this one. Wohoo, I have even more money to buy X-mas gifts for people.
The kind of pencils I used for it were woodless graphite pencils HB, 2B, 4B, and 6B.

Oh, and I saw the movie RENT Saturday and it was really good! I saw it with a guyfriend and he was crying at the end and I was really fighting to hold back the tears too^_~ The music is so awesome. I burned the soundtrack from him…I mean…I totally borrowed it and was just creating a back-up of the CD’s for him….yes…that’s it…*shifty eyes*
