Hooray!! I finally have one! And yes, right now it is very teeny and new, and mostly features my chess dragons, but! It exists! And it is functional!

Plus, come on. Dragons on chess pieces are cool.

Anyway, from now on I'll be including links to Etsy on the pages of dragons that are featured there. If you've ever wanted to buy one of these guys, now you can! If you haven't, what is wrong with you hey, thanks for taking the time to read this far!

In other news, I apologize for the sort-of hiatus this account has been on for basically the entire summer. I got out of school, and then summer was just as busy! Though I'll be starting school again very soon, I'll really do my best to keep making and posting art. I've got so many unfinished pieces I can't wait to share!

Hope everyone reading this is doing well! You are all awesome people. :)

Over and out!

Hi, all!

4 min read
I guess it's probably time to write another one of these. Okay, here goes. 

Just got back from a week of vacation at the beach. Not only was the beach itself awesome, but I got a lot of inspiration for some new pieces, one of which is currently in progress. :) Also, you can expect some Doctor Who fanart relatively soon depending on when I can scan it because I had some huge sheets of paper and thought it would be a great idea to draw all over one and it was really fun, yay, until I realized that I can't scan it with my itty bitty scanner. :ohnoes: So unless I can magically get a really good photograph of it (yeah, as soon as a purple leprechaun appears in my front yard), I'll probably need to take it to Kinko's or something. 

Soooo yeah. Oh, also I was tagged by the illustrious :iconashesandembers:. Yay for tags! 

Rules
1.You must post the rules.
2.Each person must post 5 things about about themselves in their journal.
3.Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post.and create five new questions for the people you tag to answer
4.You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.
5.Go to their page and tell them you have tagged them.
6.No tag backs
7.No stuff in the tagging section about "you're tagged if you're reading this" You legitimately have to tag 10 people.


Five things about me (gosh I always feel so vain doing these. Is that weird?):

1. I really don't need another fandom in my life right now, but the Doctor Who franchise apparently had other ideas. 

2. There is a book containing short stories about Mars on my desk right now.

3. I prefer traditional to digital art, but I'm trying to get better at the latter so that I'll like them equally someday. You can do some pretty darn neat stuff with digital art.

4. Griffins are my second-favorite mythical animal (take three wild guesses as to the first).

5. I DON'T FEEL LIKE BUGGING ANYONE BY TAGGING THEM so if you look in the tagging section you will find that I cheated (again) and tagged no one. :) THAT'S JUST HOW I ROLL.

:iconashesandembers:'s questions~


1. What's the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?

Oh wow... probably breaded calamari. Not as icky as it sounds, but not as tasty either. 

2. How do I build a working TARDIS?

You can't, sorry (so sorry). TARDIS are grown. 

3a. If you're a guy, do you know how to tie a tie?
3b. If you're a girl, do you know how to use nail polish?
3c. If you're neither, why haven't you sought medical attention yet? O_o

b. Yes! But not as well as I'd like. 

4.if you had a superpower, what would you want it to be? (cliche question, I know. XD)

The ability to stop time. That would be awesome.

5. if you invented a musical instrument, then what would it sound like?

Running water. You could make it sound like anything from a small brook to a waterfall. 

My questions: 

1. What languages can you speak?

2. Ever read Lord of the Rings? If yes, what did you think? If no, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU GET TO THE LIBRARY RIGHT NOW YOU INSANE PERSON.

3. What is your least favorite animal that is not some kind of bug?

4. Favorite song from a musical? Disney movies count.

5. What is the funniest (clean!) joke you've ever heard?

Aaaaaand I tag NOBODY. As promised (get on it, Odysseus). :) If you have a burning desire to answer these questions, by all means, do so! If not, that is perfectly fine and if you actually read this whole journal wow you are awesome. 

That's all for now, folks!

I was tagged by :iconjijikit:.

Here are their questions (and obviously my answers):


1. What is your favorite webcomic?
~Ooh, good one! I'd have to say Housepets by Rick Griffin. Wonderful artistic style and a lot of smart humor. ;)

2. What is your favorite medium for creating art?
~ I'm kind of obsessed with markers right now. :)

3. What is the oldest movie you've ever seen?
~Most likely The Wizard of Oz.

4. What knowledge have learned from being in a bad (any type) relationship would you want to pass on?
~From a former friendship: Just be honest if you can't keep your promises. I can tell you from experience that being on the receiving end of an ongoing lie is not fun.

5. What was your favorite age to be?
~... I can't choose! I like them all. Though I do miss being able to fit on some of the rides at our yearly carnival. :lol:  

6. What unlikely career would you like to try for a day or more?
~Cryptozoologist, naturally.  

7. What was your least favorite job?
~I always hated taking out the trash.

~A tiger lily is the first thing that comes to mind. :)

9. What is a common physical trait in your family?
~Height!

10. Homework: helpful or hinders learning?
~Depends on the homework. If it gives you a chance to work out answers at your own pace, and challenges you sufficiently, then I'm all for it. Mindless busywork? Ahahahaha no. Take this from someone who stayed up half the night doing word-finds once.


----------------------------------------------------------

My questions that must be answered:

1. What is your absolute favorite play by Shakespeare (if you haven't read/watched any, which would you like to read?)?

3. What's one book/series you've read that you really think should be more popular than it is?
4. What is your favorite character's favorite color (can be your own character, or someone in a movie, book, etc.)? Guess if you have to!
5. What is/was your least favorite subject at school?
6. What is your favorite hand-animated Disney movie?
7. Superman or Batman?
8. Why do they call it a shipment if it comes in a truck?
9. What does your name mean (if you don't want to put that online, what does your least favorite book character's name mean?)?
10. Have you ever picked up a spider?
