I really am not good with keeping up with two blogs, apparently. Heh. I will try to keep up here better, but I won't make promises to that effect. Honestly, I don't have terribly much to write about in my life. Most of the crazy that is me is spewed off in IMs to friends.
It's really best that most of that isn't seen...
This is mostly a post to say, "Hi, I'm alive still!" to people in general, "Hi noob!" to a certain BFF, and to post the work in progress for something I'm tinkering with at the moment.

Art and Buttons. Buttons and Art.
So... I sell buttons now! Rather than me get into all the information about it, I'll just link thee to the information about it all in my DeviantArt Account: Here ya go~
So far, I've only got two designs. A cute, cartoony piggy, and a D20 button for fans of DnD or the phrase, "That's How I Roll". I have some vague ideas for other designs, but I figure I'll see if these sell or not before diving further into the button making business. I thought I could sell prints at one point, and that hasn't actually panned out for me. ^^;
As usual, alongside a commission I have about eleventy unfinished works in progress I'm working on. I usually accumulate too many WIPs solely because I'll start one and eventually forget I ever did, because of my horrible organizational system on my computer - which is the lack of organization. I always say I'll do better about it, but I never do. Every new file I create goes into "My Documents" and never gets sorted into its proper place. Therefore "My Documents" is filled with utter chaos.
Add onto this my lack of creativity or common sense when it comes to naming each file. I don't feel inspired to come up with anything unique, but I don't even go with the obvious. A portrait of a pretty lady for example could be named a plethora of things that don't require much thought. "Pretty lady" "Portrait" "Lady Portrait" "Lady" Yet I end up unable to find the file later because instead of choosing any of that, I decide to name it something like "dawsfdskl" because rubbing two brain cells together makes the wrong kind of fire in my mind.
There's a reason random key mashing doesn't work for that, or other things. MMORPGs, IMs, Blogs, etc. People reading can't be expected to adfifdsffffffff when you tyoytisfdxc.

Tutorial!
Returning from an absence, I'll open with something that's (hopefully) useful. Art tutorial! I have it on my DA, but I figured I'd post it here as well.

Sketchy Sketchy!
If anyone is curious how I draw bodies when I do artwork, this video is meant to show that. Finding a method of drawing bodies and anatomy in art can be pretty hard or annoying at best. :\ Took me years to find a system that works for me, even if not neat, clean, and professional looking.
That is why erasers exist.
