"I Was Having The Most Wonderful Dream."

"But I promise to be there one day to wake you up." 12 Days.

Okay, imagine how different everything would have been if Aqua hadn't sacrificed herself for Terranort. It's sad that it was an act of deep friendship that paved the way for so many bad things ...

If you were wondering what I was doing this last week: I sold my soul to Satan once again in order to get those two cosplays done. And on the weekend I went to a con with my (twelve year old. Yes, TWELVE. Look at her, she's HUGE.) sister :D (the second youngest ... I've got four younger siblings @A@)

One day, I will finally manage to start earlier ... >___< (I mean ... my Astrid Cos was done in two days ... well, maybe three if I'd be very strict.) Then I wouldn't be stressed for days. Then I would have time for breaks and a healthy portion of sleep, and I wouldn't forget half of the costume at home <_<"

This was actually a gift for my sister. The cosplays and visiting the con, I mean. She had to win a "bet" first, namely: She had to do without sweets or sweet drinks or very fat food for the whole summer vacation (that lasts for two months here.) And well, she won. :) I don't care for any "beauty standards", but she was really getting into a weight-, and therefore a healthproblem and she definitely needed a push into a different direction. Wheter it helped or not ... well, we'll see.

Either way I am really proud of her, because she proved a whole lot of willpower in those two months, and that is definitely important just as well :)

@soulcomposer

Thanks!! Honestly, it still feels like a fever dream. I clearly remember every step involved in creating this drawing, but it feels more like I watched someone else do it?

Sometimes I look at the original and think in wonder: "Huh, I actually made this."

Sparks just like Hibana

[ID: Traditional waist-up drawing of Shionne and Alphen from Tales of Arise.Their eyes are obscured, faces very close together. Their fingers are touching ever so slightly and a coil of Shionne’s Thorns wraps around their forearms, lighting up their hands and faces. Sparks of white and orange like fire are rising from their forms. The second picture is a close-ups of their hands.]

Akusaimonth: Berserk Mode Day 17: Prison

Strange, I just felt like - Nah, probably just my imagination.

Me and my sisters finally finished our DMMD cosplays at least far enough to wear them. :D Still unfinished, still a lot to change, but NyanCon was A LOT of fun anyway.

AkuSaiMonth 2022

For anyone wondering what's up: I was asked if I would hold an AkuSaiMonth event this year and after a lot of deliberation I decided to ask for permission from @misomilk (you know, the original creator of the event!) and go for it!

Personally, I think it's a pretty fun format this year, because not only is it a bingo card (like 2015), but the BINGO CARDS HAVE RANDOMIZED PROMPT ORDERS! How cool is that?? I'm very excited about this, yes x'D

There's not a lot of time leading up to it now, I know, but if any of you feel like taking part or want to see what will be created, feel free to head over to @akusaimonth and give it a follow!! <3

There's also an AkuSaiMonth Instagram, if you want to see what's going on there as well!

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 7: SET C - “Explosion”

I saw him coming.
 Never before had I seen anything like what he held in his hands, but I didn’t need to to know it was dangerous, that he was dangerous. 
I shouted out to you, reached for you in order to push you out of his way, but you grabbed me instead and held on to me. I don’t even know if that’s what you were planning to do, but you acted as a shield to me, the last thing I would have ever wished for.

I won’t ever be able to forget the pain I saw in your eyes as you disappeared without another word.

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 4: Love

» The colour of evening … «

There are so many different kinds of love depicted in Di[e]ce … It was really hard to pick one relationship. (In the end I just accepted that I wanted to draw Sion really bad.) I absolutely love how Kazuki’s and Sion’s relationships develops over the course of the story. :’)

Oh, dig my shallow grave It’s not me you’ll safe Cause I’m a lost cause A lost, lost cause.

(I love Tales of Xillia 2, but I hate Tales of Xillia 2.)
