Nique's happy fun time thread ~ Super general discussion

[Rester]

O_o
I believe I am now traumatized...
Anytime she wants me bed that kitty can have it!
I'm perfectly comfortable sleeping on the floor anywho.

Wai~! I like how you colour ^^ I am soooo reminded of Okami too~!

Muahaha~ My evil plan is working!
That's because it IS inspired by Okami!
Now if only I knew why exactly my plan is evil or what its ultimate evil goal was...

I'm also super excite because I've mostly got the process down.
Linework in Sai
Watercolor (and sometimes chalk depending on the piece) in Painter
Then Sai again for final details and fine tuning things like lighting etc.

Mostly excite because digital watercolor is a pain in the tail and I've finally gotten it's use down to something I mostly like. I can't even imagine what artists who do things traditionally must go through x_x

I find the Sai thing kind of funny because Painter actually has Sumi-e brushes, I just really suck at using them. In order to get those quick flowing strokes which are kind of crucial to my style I need to use Sai. It may have limited features but I've never met anything that runs smoother.

Like a hot knife through butter....

I want toast now...

Edit:
PS: I get really excited whenever I discover some new tool or technique I can do/use and/or if I finally figure out how to use something to my liking because its like my whole world has changed and my mind has been blown. I have literally gone into spontaneous happy dance mode over something as simple as finding a new brush setting I like for a particular thing. Also, Spontaneous Happy Dance mode is similar to Lalafell /panic :3

My, my, how lovely is your art, my dear friend!

(mumbling) Now, how to talk her into drawing my character in her style..without making her being aware that I've suggested it...

(louder) Oh hey, Rester, look at this rather beautifully timed picture of my updated look for Hestern Nestern:



I was thinking of making his skin colour just a tinsy bit lighter (but still brown), but I really like the black hair (it being my RL hair colour as well). And oh look, a picture of him without his sunglasses just materialized:

How very strange that this keeps happening...

Welp, at any rate, I cannot wait to play with you on Sargatanas, Rester. I honestly really like both versions of your character. Your taste in characters is far too grand, I'm afraid. I almost want to say keep your miqo'te, but then I start to imagine us together on our great Lalafellin adventures and I smile.

[Niqote]

I can't decide. I just... can't... T_T

Nei... neither can I...

I haven't seen a single piece of acolyte drop so far from any of the first 3 dungeons, just foe foe and more foe striking D: What a lucky kitty you are.

I did get lucky on that weekend, every other weekend though I got nothing~! XD So it was time.

To jump on the "which one" train:
Lalafell | Mancat (Sunseeker) | Mancat (Moonkeeper)

Lalafell ^^

Beware of getting inbetween Niq and her bishies

Anyone want to trade a Shiny Thancred for a Shiny v1.0 Cid?

I need a few players for my Mini Minstrel picture!
(already added Denmo, Dhalmel, Hiir, Nique, and Rogue so far)

EDIT: k, I got enough. Thanks, guys!

*stares and waits* o_o ~chiiiiiiiii


I finally just got my sleeping schedule back on track... and Beta opens back up tomorrow orz. I need more discipline.

...nah!

Blah Blah Blahdy Blah Blorp

Hmm...oh dear, I seem to be suddenly possessed of the urge to draw my dear friend Hestern Nestern...

*five minutes later*

Muahaha! I'll just make this the dinkiest little thing ever to get back at that little- GODS DARNIT!



I knew I shoulda just done a 10 second stick figure....

I know right! My Miqo's awesome but my Lala's also awesome!
Lala'te/ Miqo'fell hybrids anyone?
I wanna be a Chibi Kitten!

It worked! *SAVE*

He he, Lala'te sounds like a delicious Eorzean coffee ordered at Stardusts.

Hmm. So if we surround Niqote with enough bishis will she pass out from blood loss? ^^;;

Lighting costumes/weapons in FFXIV

Whaaaaaat?
That is not the Gunblade Rubieus asked for.

I feel a bit weird about it. It will be a fun event and hey new costumes are always good... but... eh?
Maybe I should actually play my copy of XIII-2... I understand they travel to different places/times in it or something... so I guess Lightning popping into Eorzea is not too far from Canon.

>.> The Axe and Bow are so cool... the book and mage weapons are completely weird though.

Also that Lalafell is very cute...

[Mjollnir]

the book and mage weapons are completely weird though.

Summoning a mini-Titan with an iPad's going to be a bit odd, yeah...

If you plan to get LR: FF XIII, you should play it.
Maybe you find the Moogle in FF XIII-2 cute as well.

I find the Axe strange . . but if i see it as a "Crystal Weapon" it looks cool. XD
After some thought . . mage weapon #1 is Vanille Weapon and #2 is the "Moogle Weapon".
But no idea where that book has it´s origin. o.o

. . .

I wonder if we will fight that "Magitek Behemoth" in first picture. XD
