OH MY GOSH, BEHIND YOU!!
Right? Huh?
Anyway, so. This has been on my mind for a while. If I don't think a character is fun and satisfying to draw, then I change it. I'm usually hesitant to make a big change, because then I have people freaking out, and they are suddenly not capable of telling my characters apart (*coughcough*mymother*coughcough*). -.-;; I never change them much... different outfits for different days, sort of thing... but it happens enough that I'm cautious about it. I want people to be able to easily understand my comic, right? When they can't keep the characters straight, it's hurtful to my artistic pride. T.T
So, anyway, I'm careful. But this has been eating at me for a while. Fey's style has become boring. It's been boring to me for a while. And, usually, I am even more careful about messing with my own character, because, well, it's MINE. If I were to change her too often on a whim, I would feel like I wasn't paying enough attention to my other characters. -.-;;
Also, I love this hairstyle, but I feel parts of it are used often enough in other comics that I wasn't being original. Oh, well. Done being angsty complainy artist now.
Sum up for those of you who skimmed: Fey got a makeover.
Conclusion: She will start looking like this next Lesson. Also, I'm pretty sure Mugen is going to keep her emo look... I really like that for her... not to mention, it's a blast to draw. :P Which is a huge factor in deciding how people look, as you all know.

P.S. Yeah. The blog title? No relevence at all. Made you look!

It's A Proven Fact:
Pretty Girl + Dork Boy = Not a Coherant Conversation
Especially when said pretty girl is also shy. :D
What can I say? I'm evil. I know this will shock everyone, but I got this one done even faster than normal! Probably because the panels were all pretty easy, even as far as backgrounds go. The dialogue was inspiration that came to while I was riding my bike... yesterday? Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was yesterday. Originally, I really hadn't planned on using Cashier Boy so much.
Oh, this just occured to me, in case you were wondering. No, Cashier Boy is not Ben's character. Cashier Boy will probably die after this story line. If I choose to add in Ben's character, he will be funner to draw and write. Because, after all, I'll have to draw him a little more consistantly than Cashier Boy, right?
On side notes, Bet On It is a good song. As is What Hurts The Most (*have been obsessed with song for three days, in counting*).
Not much else... but seven thirty practice tomorrow!! This comment is only relevent if you are in band!! Squeee for happiness!!

A Concerned Friend.
I've had a REAL fun time of it today. *twitch* First, ton of Kez homework. I can handle that. No big deal, right? Just the normal. Even if the normal is staggering in an extreme way.
What REALLY bothers me? Either I copied my trig homework down wrong, or half the problems he assigned to us don't exist. *twitchtwitch* So, I don't have most of my 'assignment' done. Fun times. *wants to kill something*
Grah. And I STILL need to read the Scarlet Letter. But, on the bright side I HAVE officially started it, and it has piqued my interest. So hopefully it won't be so hard to pick up in the future.
All right, enough ranting... I know you all are waiting for me to post the linkie to my latest comic. :P I see through you all. This one took me three whole days to do... not because it's longer or more complex, mind. (Actually, as far as drawing it goes, it was. Just not very much so.) But, what usually happens is I dedicate an entire weekend afternoon, and have four hours to work on this thing and get it up. For the past couple of days, this has not been the case at all. (Again, GRAH.)
So, here it is. The beginning of the end of our little roadtrip. If only you all weren't so... exciteable. Or apathetic.
:D

Emo Vampire
:D I know you are all shocked. She's updating?! With real art?! The sky must be falling. If it makes you feel any better, it isn't a comic, so the world isn't coming to a COMPLETE end. Just a smaller one.
But, about this art. It was one of those Inspirational Moments that a half hour later turned into an Inspired Work of Art. I freaked Court out during that time period, telling her that this was actually very less scary than my Twilight shojo page, but I don't think she was very reassured. I wonder why. :D
Anyway. I like the clothing. Which I did research for! Do not diss the hat. I LOVE the hat. It makes the whole outfit.
Art! It's fun.

If you want to laugh...
But, yeah. This is what I've been working on in my free time for the past... five days. Approximately. First, in my head, then, the coding. This is why I didn't do any art recently. Or do much reading. Or do my homework adequately.
Personally, I think it turned out perfect.
And, as we are all fans of Twilight, I think you'll all get it. :D Enjoy!
Oh, and if you don't comment, I'll eat your brains. I worked hard on that thing. :3
