Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

IMPORTANT: Please be sure to state what you did

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)
Draw a

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu
(the song is Tenkuu no Canaria, from ToS *w*b)

Advice and TutorialsSo this First Advice and Tutorial Journal will be on General Anatomy and Such. The second will be up to you so please comment below in what you think the next Advice and Tutorial Journal should be on.

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

♥Gallery ♥Favorites ♥Journal ♥Note Me

HEY EVERYONE!!!!
I know it has been a while but man Oh MAN!

It's been busy for me and so much is happening around me, so many new and exciting things that aah!!! It's just all so awesome...

So let's rewind a bit!
COMIC CON
It was soooooooo awesome to attend with the help of Capcom and help them with their booth dressing as RE6 Ada Wong! All the memories and things I got to do and experience I shall NEVER forget! So Thank you!!
A-FEST
Slaved reaaaaal hard to get the Mei-Ren cosplay out which is thus far my latest submission in my gallery. And so proud of it!!!! Despite their being a high split on it... I was really happy to have made this for my grandfather whom is my Chinese blood. Well..aside from my dad hahah~! But to win an award with my friends

together as a group just made us all very happy for the hard work we each contributed. And of course I had an amazing time with everyone which included

So many fun times and memories had~!!!

Zelda Season
Every year around the very beginning of fall till well..maybe mid winter is ZELDA SEASON!!!!!!!!!!! My sister and I started this back in our youngin' days. Playing Zelda with the cool weather and since we live in the countryside and thought that the dying trees for some reason kind of reminded us of the Lost Woods. We HAD and HAVE to play Zelda so..yes..on my free times, I am lucky to have my sister visiting me for Zelda nerdgasm season.
ONICON
Oni con is more of a 'let's hang out!' convention for me now. So It was great seeing

and his GF

and spending awesome ammounts of awesome time with them. Unfortunately I had some car troubles but, they are solved and resolved so I'm good~!!
Dun...
D-D-Dun...
d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d...
DUN!!!!!!!!!!!
BIGBANG: STILL ALIVE CONCERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gmtorjphjnjjm,k
OH MY GOD!!!!
THIS WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BigBang is so awesome Live!!!! They sound so much better than the CD. WHICH I WILL NEVER HEAR EVER THE SAME AGAIN! Especially Tae Yang.
But yes, Flew to Cali and spent some amazing time with

and her sis,

getting all hyped up for the concert teasing

LOL.
We all waited in the VIP line for a while wanting to get a good spot which, we did for the most part and hell, I made sure to cling to the railed fence to get my spot close to the catwalk!>:0
We all also got some awesome swag from our swag bags given to VIP members so I'm gonna be wearing my shirt and other stuffs~!

But lets get back to the concert action. So...all I have to say is...
And I hope this does not bring much offense but DAAYUM Asian fangirls are SCARY! Like the non American raised ones. Most of the fangirls from Korea, Japan, or China were so effin scary man! They are CUTHROAT! They stampeded people screaming and crying, shoved you against railings, pulled you from your place or even to get a jacket thrown from a band member. Broke their fan lights and slashed peoples faces using it as a weapon!! INSANE!!!>:0
And of course to tradition Tae Yang just strips off, rips off, or just I don't know, osmosis off his shirts and jackets and just HAS to be topless for majority of the concert LOL!!! And T.O.P. was his normal T.O.P. self hahahah. But Dae Sung had this funny idea to just start taking his endless supply of fuji water and start dowsing people in water before tossing his bottle out. And It was funny how he kept doing it to the beat that my friends and I couldn't help but poke a little fun at silly D-Lite LOL. It was more hilarious when T.O.P. did it though since his idea of spraying water on fans is just opening a bottle and dumping the entire thing on a small group of girls on the edge of the barricade.
We also got to hear some solo or duet songs like..Knock Out and Crayon~
Though I think my highlight of the concert was when Dae Sung came down the catwalk and I was watching and waved smiling and he just stops! and begins to have a starring contest with me! HAhahahah So I just smiled and waved again LOL I don';t know what to do when people stare aside from starring back...which might have been awkward for him? But yes, I had a starring contest with D-lite before something snapped him back to 'oh I'm performing!'
But I think they had an amazing time in Cali. I know Tae Yang did! LOL Can not Un-see!
All in all the concert was just...rghbvor hyjtnmtfnsy AMAZING!!! I WILL NEVER FORGET THESE MEMORIES!!!! But concert aside the memories I had with my friends in Cali was just as amazing and unforgettable!
And I would totally do it again!
Thank you guys!! especially

for making this happen for me!!!!!

This skin is temporary for this AWESOME occasion/Memory!!!
But maybe I'll keep it~ muweheheehehehe
Still working on cosplays when I have free time which is currently a little rare for me as I am distracting my nephew with Jake and the Neverland pirates to type this quickly! LOL sorry everyone!!
But more importantly this journal I hope proves that I too am Still Alive~! heheheh~

I need to write my experience too! jfka;jfa; I can never hear the songs the same again!
I just hear the live or remember the live too!

~Mauryv Nov 6, 2012

You're right, sasaengs (Korean fan girls) are effin' crazy. I now work at an English Village and movies, tv shows, commercials, and music videos are constantly filmed here. Those girls went crazy when this one guy (don't know who) was here and it was difficult stopping them. Watch this to see how crazy they REALLY are:

[link]

I've missed out on MANY opportunities to see Big Bang, Girls Generation, T-ara, and Sistar because of work.

I'll see them before I leave here!

*Su-Wan Nov 6, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

^{That was crazy insane but it totally reminded me of the concert! Hahahha
But None of them were pretty physical towards me, and if they were, I did not feel it hahah. I think I was off putting though in my own way that no one bothered me. I suppose I just gave off 'that look', that so many people tell me I have HAHAH.
But others there were not as lucky, these girls were INSANE!}
