Kawaii Kon 2012

2 min read
Wow. Has it been a year already? My journal posts here are so few and far between. Haha. Anyway...

This year at Kawaii Kon was another success! Thank you to everyone that stopped by Charisma Industries' table in the Artist Alley. We appreciate all your support and we hope you'll find us again next year. In the mean time, you can stop by our website which will be launching very soon  HERE or like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter @CharismaInd (or, you know, follow us everywhere). :D

We should have a ton of new shirts and buttons along with other various art and products on the way soon!

***

My cosplay list this year was:

Haruko from FLCL
Tifa Lockhart from Final FantasyVII: Advent Children
Wasp from The Avengers

I'll see about getting some pictures up. I got to join in on both the Marvel gathering and Final Fantasy gathering this year. It was a lot of fun being a part of those.

I was hoping to finish Nozomi from Bleach in time, but I just ran out of time to finish sewing and making her sword and everything. She's next on my list as well as Sakura from Naruto: Shippuden. Then I'm gearing up to figure out what to do for HEXXP. I might just recycle Tifa since Nobuo Uematsu is going to have a concert there. :D I still can't believe he's going to be here! Very exciting!

***

In other news, I'm trying to get more commission work done and also working on a bunch of new button and shirt designs for Charisma Industries. I'll hopefully be rolling those out soon. I'll put up some sneak peeks for those when I have them. So stay tuned!

Until next time

Kawaii Kon 2011

2 min read
Aaaah! Kawaii Kon was so much fun. It was so tiring, but so worth it. It was my first year back at Kawaii Kon since the very first one. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased to see how it has grown. ^_^ This year was also my first year getting a table in the Artist Alley with some friends at Charisma Industries. We had prints, buttons, shirts, and jewelry for sale. Thank you to all of you who stopped by to support us!

My cosplays this year were:
Friday - Anise from Nemu*Nemu
Saturday - Tifa Lockheart from Final Fantasy Advent Children
Sunday - Finn from Adventure Time

I posted a few pictures of each in my Cosplay album if you want to check those out. Hopefully next year I'll have time to make some new costumes. I didn't have time this year between school, work, and preparing stuff to sell at the AA to make anything new, so I recycled some older ones.

In other news, the school year's coming to a close soon, so hopefully I'll have more time to put more art up here on DA. I've been kind of neglecting things here, which makes me a sad panda. I'll be trying to fix that throughout the summer. :3

Until next time!

So, as per usual, it's been forever since I've updated my page. I figured it was about time for some changes so I rearranged a few things and updated some things here and there. Can you tell? (I'll feel better if you lie and say, "yes." Haha).

As I'm sure a bunch of you have already noticed, I have been uploading a lot more photos lately rather than drawings and such. I started getting more into photography during my last year at IIT, and especially so with lo-fi photography. It all started when I got a make-your-own pinhole camera kit from a friend. After that, I purchased a Lomography Diana Mini. I saw it and just had to get one. Cute lo-fi camera on the shelf? Hell yes! Soon after that, I added a Lomography Fisheye2 camera to my collection. It's just been a bunch of roaming around and shooting things (hehehe) since then, which I find to be a lot of fun.

Does this mean that I will be mostly putting photography deviations up? Not necessarily. I'm also trying to get back into doing more drawings. It really has been a while and I miss it. My sister and I are going to try to make a line of t-shirts with some of our designs on them, so hopefully that'll get going soon, and I'll have yet another reason to draw more.

Other than that, I've got a few other projects lined up that include random things such as painting things and making DVD covers and such. Should be a pretty packed summer (or what's left of it, that is). In the mean time, I'll be lurking and uploading things now and then.

In other news, I did, in fact, graduate from IIT in May and now I'm working on getting my admission materials in to attend grad school at UH Manoa for the Fall. There are a lot of things keeping me busy lately. I'm trying not to let any one thing get too much in the way of me getting to all of the other things. It's pretty crazy, but at least it's better than being bored!

So, until next time (next year?!).

Hey, everyone!

As usual, it's another journal post that shows up every few months. Haha. It's finals week, though, and I'm taking some time to procrastinate. As you've probably seen, I've been putting up some Anime Central pictures of my AC Tifa cosplay along with some of the other neat cosplayers I saw over the weekend.

In other news, I've been really falling behind with my drawings and such. I'm caught up with my Gaia Online commissions, though, thankfully. Things I have in the working? Still a bunch of stuff for Noir Pictures, as well as a few of my own projects. I really want to find the time over the summer to get through the great majority of my own projects such as "Wolverine" that I recently posted.

I got a bunch of new Copics, Neopikos, and Prismacolors that I'm itching to use but haven't had a good opportunity to use. So, I'm hoping I can play around with those in the next few months as well. Hopefully all will go as planned and I can start to submit things here regularly again (huge emphasis on "hopefully").

So I guess that's about it for now. Until next time!

Some Updates

2 min read
So I finally got around to updating those Chicago Skyline picture stitches that I had up a while ago. That off-center text was really bugging me, but I never really had the time or incentive to go out of my way to fix 'em up. Today, though, I was feeling like scratching off a bunch of things on my "To Do" list. So, now I can run a line through that one. Woohoo.

I'm currently working on some Final Fantasy Tactics fanart where I'm mixing jobs into "super jobs" but it may take a while to finish the two that I have set for now.

I've also got a couple other pic stitches lined up but I don't know when I'll find the time to sort through those pictures and get them to a point where they're more than just a compilation of pictures in a folder. We'll see...

Other than that, I'll be continuing to ink and color some of :iconneoalastor:'s comics in the mean time. So, sit tight, new things are on their way!
