Hi guys! So sorry for not updating for months. I never knew
that settling down in a new country takes a lot of time and I was busy going
around town, hopping from one place to another, adventuring. So, what do I have
in store for my blog this time? As the title implies my first
anime-related-stuff buying starts.
Since I promised to treat myself on my first salary in this
country, I didn’t hold back. But to be honest, I DID hold back because if I
didn’t, I will not have anything left for my savings.
The story started with me and my friends planning to go for
some gaming time but then he forgot the way towards our supposed-to-be destination.
And so, I ended up at Animate – an hobby collection store.
I think most of my friends knows that I am a crazy fan of
Rin and Len Kagamine. And when I entered their store, the first thing that came
to my sight was the Rin and Len Kagamine Cup with a G-clef holder and with Tama’s
illustrations!
Dude! It was Tama! And you know what I did? I immediately called
for a sales person and asked to get that cup out and give it to me. Yes, I
ordered.
With that done, I proceeded with getting the first Art Book
of Yana Toboso – the creator of Kuroshitsuji. I already had planned on buying
it ever since I first stepped into Animate. So I took it and didn’t even recheck
the price. AT ALL.
The front and back inner covers are actually so fine that I almost cried when I opened it myself. I plan to buy Yana Toboso's other art books and the same goes for CLAMP.
So next, I turned to the Vocaloid section because I was curious
if there are any more Rin and Len merchandise that are being displayed, and so,
I was right. And I caught “Evil’s Kingdom” Album. My friend tried to stop me
from buying it but it was futile. Everyone knows that my love for Rin and Len
(and for mothy) is uncontrollable.
The album comes with a chain (and I am loving it)! I will be
using it on my company phone and will be always filled with energy whenever someone
from the company will call me instead of being depressed while thinking it is,
again, work (lol). And with an Exit Tunes Card! I crai. I dunno if I’ll be
using it but I will use it for my Rin and Len Babies.
And I found these beautiful and cute chains of the both of
them too. I just took it from its place and went to the counter with the fear
that I won’t be able to eat for the next few weeks if I stayed there.
After that small adventure, another friend came to accompany
me going around town. We were able to reach Nagasaki’s China Town and I
stumbled upon this book store.
私＆僕たちの出番だよ！
So I was originally searching for any CLAMP
Artbooks then I saw a Rin and Len Kagamine Artbook Collection instead. Oh, you
know the rest of the story.
Linzz became broke and shall wait for the next payment with
hunger. HAHA

It has been a while since I posted anything related to graphics. Truth is, I haven’t really done anything except things for Chronos – my group in FFSNG – and, of course, for my facebook (and maybe onee-sama’s as well). So make this story short, I’ll be just dumping my cover photos here since I’ve decided to use my Deviantart for illustrations purposes only.
As some of you might know that I am a big fan of Nano (ナノ) so I happen to have stumbled on one of his song that was used in a PSVITA Game, Re:Viced's Promotional Video. And I went like, "Why not make cover photos out of these cute looking characters?" So it happened.
Originally, I only made two - that's for me and for Krantz - then Bea and Badz ask for theirs and so I made them too.
Isn't Yukine so cute?
I also made the ones bellow as my other facebook sets with my Onee-sama, Krantz.
Please tell me you have read and watched Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso (Your Lie in April)! Because if you haven't yet, you have missed the top-ranked musical anime of all time! So I will recommend it!
The manga has 44 Chapters that ended last March 2015 and the Anime with 22 episodes that ended last March 2015. There is another manga entitled, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso - Coda which tells Kousei Arima's (the lead character) past. The Code started last April.
The ones written on the cover photo was what Kousei once said about Kaori (female) on episode 2, I think.
"I don't want to but I want to hear it."
"I don't want to but I want to see her."
I also made another version featuring other characters where my friends wore them for their facebook profiles. How lovely is it to do it in bulk? I love my friends!
As obvious as it may look, I am a big fan of Emi! She was one of the contestants that thought winning doesn't matter. She was only there to show something to Arima Kousei through her piano - which she had done marvelously, by the way.
After that was actually Valentines Day. So I made a cover for the Holiday. Actually, I planned to do this for me and Krantz only (again) but my other friends demanded for their share so I had no choice but to edit ones for them. LOL
And it turned out like this:
And after Valentines, Krantz told me to change sets so I have to make a new one. LOL Why am I being ordered around by these guys anyway?!
This one was hard to make because the original illustration was cut off and not really meant for graphics work but I liked it so much that I didn't have a choice but to make something out of it. This was the outcome.
Then after a month, Krantz wanted a new one. OTL
This time, Krantz chose the image to be used and I made it simple with a little blending and lighting.
As for the latest one, I made Krantz do the choosing since I downloaded this image pack from Vocaloid Otaku's Rin and Len Fanclub (oh, if you're interested, I am inviting you over haha). I made a few selections and ended up with six of them all so I went and ask Krantz to choose the image for the next set from my selected pieces.
We ended up with this one. I used some simple editing and spammed it with brushes. I like how it turned out.
Hope you enjoyed looking at them! /o/

When you look for answers
And you don't know where to find them
You're hoping there's a sign to point the way
Have you lost the courage?
Will you find the strength to stand against the darker days?

Hello Fate! Long time no blog! Yes, it is, isn't it? But yes, I finally decided to make a good turn with my blog. I wanted to focus on graphics before but now that I have no more time and just do it for myself and some friends and for my FFSNG Group, Chronos, I will make this into a random blog!
Yes, my dump blog will become a dump blog once again. But of course, when there are times that I have done some works, I will post them up and if I have anything new going on, I will do the same after this post.
Most of my friends knew I am a big fan of Rin and Len Kagamine (Oh heck, most of my blog's layouts were Rin and Len lol) and nano (no kidding, my playlist is full of her songs). So I decided to make a layout that could feature both of my lives! Aren't I a genius? Nope. LOL It is too simple anyway.
So the results is the, obvious, version 16! But really, have you lost the courage?

I know, it has been a long time and I'm really sorry for not being able to reply onto your messages, guys. Internet over here is just too slow to browse anything lately and can't get a stable connection on my side. (I do get some good ones but I have to wake up too early in the morning to have it)Since something went wrong with the image hosting site I have been using before, Version 014's images cannot be seen so I decided to make another layout for Linzz's Fate! This time, featuring my all-time favorite, Rin and Len Kagamine from Vocaloids, of course!
Since I have done the Crypton Layout Run, it's time to go back to my lovelies this time. I'm still working on who drawn the image. I seemed to have renamed my files forgetting I needed the image tags to retrieve artist information on my saved images. I know, I am dum. LOL
There were actually a lot of bugs when I made this and I tried at least three styles to make things work and made a couple of attempts on changing everything and it took me four days to finish this and install it because of school. OTL
PS: I don't think I'll be able to do any graphics work after this since I still have a lot of pages of vocabularies and Kanji to work on. XD

Well, as I said before, even if I'm really busy now, I know there can still be a time where I can make graphics but for selected people only (including myself). Actually, one level of language class had just finished on my side so we had a few days of free from schedule so I made use of that time to do them. And now, we're on another level of language class so it will be busy again. 
The images were drawn by my favorite PV Artist, Suzunosuke and these were from HitoshizukuP and Yamadan's song, Party x Party featuring the six Vocaloids of Crypton (which to say that I have featured in all of Linzz Fate's layout before - pround).
I didn't actually plan on creating two of these but my friend Krantz wanted to have one as well featuring Len Kagamine so why not? All I did was change the position, blur and sharpened areas of the work anyway. Plus, the name. XD

I has been a long time since Linzz Fate changed layouts, isn't it? Hahahaha Well this time, this layout is special because the banner was actually done by my freind, Serene, whom I met through our FFSNG Group, Chronos.
The banner, features the last Vocaloid figure in my Vocaloid Mania of Layouts that has been featured in Linzz Fate (remember, I started with Rin and Len, Miku, Luka, Meiko...) KAITO! I actually had a hard time choosing a song from which I can get Kaito from. I was thinking of the Ice cream song but chickened out the next day. I also thought of doing something a facebook-like one since KAITO's blue but then decided not to go for it. Then, I ended up with this cool illustration of him in his Secret Police outfit so, why not? I also asked Serene to do the banner for me since I really like her editing very much.
As for my next layout. I wonder who I should feature next... I mean, I am quite interested in a lot of anime titles with a lot of awesome characters in and it's quite hard to choose. Maybe I should feature someone from a manga? Hmmm whatever goes, I guess. HAHA

Totally, it is! I mean, I haven't really done any Rin & Len tags in a while, have I? LOL And I seriously miss listening to their songs! ever since Vocaloidism stopped posting the Vocaloid Weekly Ranking (Well, I know they are now posted in Ofurotaimu still...), I wasn't able to catch up with their latest songs and only stalks my favorite artists if ever they drawn illustrations for certain songs. LOL But that doesn't hinder my love to these lovely vocaloids. It does not!
I made two versions of it. I mean, I don't really know what kind of color environment suits this piece! Anyway, renders are from Render Graphiques and the rest of the resources are listed here.

I decided to share them so here you go! I do hoe you'll put them into good use, somehow. LOL Anyway, the original illustration was done by MonicA. I only vectored the basic features of each Vocaloid (Crypton-marked only) and as for the rest, it is u to you do use them in where ever. XD
Of course, if you're a fan of vocaloid, you'd know right away who is who in this banner, right? You can actually use them for anything (maybe for T-shirt designing) but I only will give away the 150dpi coy since my computer couldn't save my files in 300dpi. LOL RAM problems. OTL

Gosh! It has been a long time since I last posted something on my blog, right? IT has also been a long time since I ever shared any of my works anywhere! I've been really caught up with work now in real life + my studies with foreign language which making mg one-day off from work not enough to do everything I wanted since they are pretty much occupied by my friends. Yes, I do hang out with them every Monday (my day off).
So I found this image randomly. It does look like Luka from her song Just be Friends and I picked it for that sole purpose! That song changed my views in love (meh, even though I don't have experiences into such anyway) and how people should accept things can be different without us, liking it and that there are inevitable things that will happen even if these things are some things we don't want to happen. That's life, right?
Anyway, please look forward for my works to be published here. I don't think I can still keep up but I will try! I'll reply to chatbox messages often this time too - that is, if I don't forget them anyway. HAHA
Also, please welcome another new friend in my circle! Sugar Graphics. Please check this site! they have lovely goodies as well! :)

So my partner, my boyfriend's birthday is today, August 24th. I did give him some things beforehand but because he has some activities this weekend, I am sad that I couldn't date my shota. OTL So I draw something for his birthday. It's a Rin and Len illustration, of course since both of us are a fan of it. (or maybe he just got influenced by me)
Before, I asked him what he wants for his birthday and he answered me he wants a car. And so it will be a car and it's inside that box! (Since I'm not good at drawing cars even when I asked a friend to teach me lol) He texted me in the morning he used this drawing as his wallpaper and I'm glad. :">
I actually was behind my anime review plans because of this. HAHAHA

So yeah!!! I will be dumping some signatures! I actually tried some new textures I've got from my usual sources, of course and tried a different approach on making signatures. This time, I'm really working hard to deal with both textures and brushes. It's a pain. lol

Ah, yes. Since My friend, Demise, already got her new set from me, I want to dump this template together with its background here.
It's a simple one created from an awesome illustration. I like the overall feel of the illustration the moment I saw it so I automatically saved it and turned it into this. XD So yeah. Other information are under the cut~

I've decided to keep FFSNG Templates that can be used by other people here in my blog so I don't have to link every single thing to people who are asking 'cause it becomes really annoying. lol
This one was from an awesome drawing of Suzunosuke-sama. Just cropped and added some extras to it to make it as a template. Codes and other information are under the cut.

Hi thee! Been a while. I actually have a lot of things done where graphics is concerned although I had already lost track on which was done on when. LOLFirst of, Krantz is a friend of mine online. She's a very sweet programmer and I like her very much. One day, she just posted on my facebook wall, pestering me about creating a FFSNG profile for her where I don't even play that thing. So I decided that I'll create the images she'll need and she codes the rest. XD (Actually, it was my main reason why I hesitated to do it at first 'cause of game defense hangover)
At first I was just playing around the image drawn by Suzunosuke for Trickery Casino song. then later decided to do it seriously, seeing it turned out better than I thought. lol

A friend of mine requested a wallpaper and since I extracted a recent render, I decided to use it for him.
It's Rin and Len from the song Bonus Stage by SignalP and Illustrated by Hino. I couldn't help it. Now, even my firefox persona is Bonus Stage themed together with my phone wallpaper. XD

Actually me and Cloaked decided to have another set for our facebook profiles. Since he knows so much that I love Rin and Len Kagamine, he agreed to my idea to have another one. Also, since I find their song Bonus Stage quite good, I decided to use the song as the theme.
