Sketchdump + stuff
Some sketches I drew over summer~
I've been thinking... should I make an art LJ? This was supposed to be it, but most of the journals here are for bitching about life and spamming with photos |D; I think it'd be more organized and stuff, I'm just afraid of abandoning one or the other XD; Oh well, I'll just deal with my messy journal for now~
So I'm working on an animation right now and I decided to buy Advanced Photoshop 58 because this issue had tips on animating. Only... I figured out these tips on my own. |D; C'est la vie~ At least I learned fancy terms for the things I do~ This animation will be a fail rotoscope, by the way~ Ooh, I feel so fancy using that word~
This kinda makes me think... what kind of artist do I want to be? Originally, I wanted to be a doujinkka. But I really suck at paneling/coming up with plots. I guess I can take a class on the former and maybe ask for fanfiction to solve the latter XD; Ugh, but I don't wanna work on a commission-basis/something that makes me feel like I have a deadline even when I don't. |D; I'm already doing that with beta'ing fanfiction |D;;;; Maybe if the writers gave me deadlines, I'd feel less lazy XD;;;; MAYBE I SHOULD JUST NOT BETA.
So I kinda wonder... should I focus more on animation? It's so fun~ Technically, I have to come up with plots, but... they're smaller... IDK. But animating takes up so much effort |D;;;;; It's fun, but frustrating sometimes |D; Frustrating in a way that makes me wish for a tablet |D; BUT I SWEAR TO BE A REALLY GOOD MOUSE ARTIST BEFORE I'M OLD ENOUGH TO BUY A TABLET!! This defeats the purpose of needing a tablet |D;;;
Maybe if I make this a living I'll get myself a tablet~ For now, it'll only be a hobby~
This brings in the question of what I wanna be when I grow up |D; I've wanted to be a psychologist for quite some time now. But over time, I've realized I suck at reading emotions/understanding people/anything really psychological. So I wonder if I should go into art or something like that. I kinda want to go into design for advertising * v * But IDK, I think I would hate my hobby if I made it my living |D;;; Oh well, I still have some time to think~
Heh, this was supposed to be a sketch dump not a journal XD;;;;
