Life has improved. If you're on my F-list, see below in my LJ. If not, then, well...just trust me. And! In spite of a bad case of "Oh shit now what"-itis, I have managed to continue to draw new and fun things. Inuyasha. Pen and ink with colored pencil.
I can't help it. I just really like the poor kid. He puts up with so much crap and still keeps trying. I admire that. He's like my totem animal...or something.
The background was especially fun. I used elements from Hokusai's Snowy Morning at Koishikawa, from Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji. Mount Fuji is in the back there, behind IY. The whole thing sort of matched the season and the mood.
And, just because it's funny...
MERIMASK: So, HotM is supposed to be posted tomorrow...
MERIMASK: I can't wait!
Skygirl51483: :)
Skygirl51483: Three whole chapters.
MERIMASK: Whew.
MERIMASK: Think they'll "do it"?
Skygirl51483: fanfiction.net is going to blow up from the rush of fangirls.
Skygirl51483: Tough call on whether they do get together in the flesh.
MERIMASK: I'll bet you one of those IY prints that they'll do it. By the third chapter.
Skygirl51483: lol
Skygirl51483: When they finally see each other again...that'll be the moment I want to get to.
MERIMASK: Yeah. I love Res, she really does romantic tension very nicely.
Skygirl51483: seriously! she has everyone waiting on a cliff about to fall.
MERIMASK: I know! I wonder why we're getting all three at once. Res hinted that one of the chapters is really short.
Skygirl51483: I think she's ready for this beast of a project to be over.
MERIMASK: Well, I'm going to be sad to see it end...but I'm dying to find out what finally happens.
Skygirl51483: ooh yes.
Skygirl51483: It'll be great
Skygirl51483: Could you imagine how Sesshoumaru will feel about being trapped away for over 400 years?
MERIMASK: He's either going to be pissed...or he'll have had enough time to think things over and come to some kind of pleasant conclusion about life in general and Kagome in particular.
Skygirl51483: And knowing him, he'll be bored as hell.
MERIMASK: You never know...Maybe he'll decide to enjoy life more, now...
MERIMASK: And maybe monkies will fly out of his butt.
Skygirl51483: lmao
MERIMASK: He's so sour. :-) *I* hope he's learned a thing or two about love.
Skygirl51483: I know! He needs to learn to except how things are and love while he can.
MERIMASK: Wouldn't that be nice? Res did say there was a happy ending. I can't imagine life with a sour, aloof, sociopathic youkai as being "happy"...can you? Even with the pretty hair...
MERIMASK: All the pretty hair in the world can't make up for an all powerful being with a god complex.
Skygirl51483: Very true. Course...looking back on Kagome's life currently-anything half way decent will qualify as a good ending. That poor girl.
MERIMASK: :-( Aww. I know. She deserves a break.
Skygirl51483: I thought my heart broke in five different places when she was in the afterlife talking with Kikyou.
MERIMASK: I know! And that whole scene with Inuyasha... :::puddle of goo:::
MERIMASK: "I was in love with you once..." Waaaah!
Skygirl51483: wah! I know!!!!
MERIMASK: So, karmically speaking, she's waaay overdue for a little sunshine and goodness.
Skygirl51483: yes! fate owe's her big time!
MERIMASK: She should get a free toaster and a lifetime supply of Pop Tarts too.
MERIMASK: That would be great!
MERIMASK: ;-)
Skygirl51483: ooh! the smore brand of poptarts. those rock
MERIMASK: Mmmm! Though nothing really beats good old strawberry in my book.
MERIMASK: That's it. Kagome deserves a life full of love and pop tarts. Amen.
Skygirl51483: lmao

What a great conversation. I need to add you on AIM and have some musings with you.
Beautiful work of Inuyasha again. You have a very clean stroke of colored pencil, and props to using that media. I love seeing it. Seeing all your work makes me jealous. I need to be more productive.

Thank you, you know I'm really enjoying doing fan art...it's very relaxing and I'm trying to think of new ways to draw anime/manga characters that stay true to the Japanese culture. S'fun!

I like em cold, too, because they're still soft that way. :)
Sesshou was awesome upon cominng out of 400 years of living death, wasn't he? Haha, "What are you doing here?" What a brat.

:::ahem:::
Yeah, I loved that too. :-) Sess actually had to have Poe's "Cask Of Amantillado" treatment for four-hundred years in order to grow a sense of humor. Sounds about right.

I got the bug today......going to attempt to do one in the style of Mucha's Les Saisons with the four girls (Kagome, Sango, Kagura, and Kikyou) Hopefully, I'll actually have the time to get them all sketched, inked and colored.....
From:

Les Saisons with the girls sounds like a simply awesome idea. Will you do Sango in her demon-slayer get up, or her traditional "peasant girl" garb? :::is curious::: Please share when you're done, I'm just mad about your work as it is and I'm sure you'll do something amazing.
From:

Probably Sango's kimono...she'll be Summer, Kagura - autumn, Kikyou - winter. I'll definitely be posting them as each is finished, but as to whether I'll merge them all into one piece in the end or not is still up in the air.

Also, I really did try to give you credit for our conversation but the ding-dang LJ cut thingy was dropping stuff out... I still barely understand how to use it (it's the crappy instructions that read like badly translated Chinese). ;-)
