tiredddddd.

must be because of the lack of exercise =((( been using "working on my 3-min vid!" and "quality work" as an excuse to not be very productive lately. suckssss. 3 secs everyday =60 days to a 3-min vid! OMGGGG. this is the start of today's 3 secs of vid: sorry about the low res and watermark, am paranoid about art thieves after seeing the abundance of cases involving artworks from dev art. somehow pple just think leaving the watermark there gives them the right to use and mutilate the works however they wish, so actually leaving a watermark isnt even enough to ward off the copycats with delibrate intentions. esp for me, every single work counts (however small) because i spend a lot of time+effort on the things even when they look simple and clean. trust me, its because i erase a lot.because this is a PENCIL drawing. lots of pple cant understand why i need so much time. for this one, i actually drew out as a sketch the entire proportions of the head and had guidelines for symmetry of the eyes and the nose and the face shape and such. then i erase the rest to fit wad i want to show. it doesnt look so perfect as a fluke! dont believe me? ha. divide the length of the head in two (without the hair) and thats the position i chose for the eyebrows. then, divide the lower portion into thirds and the uppermost line marks the bottom eyelid. from the two-thirds left, divide them again into three and the bottom line is where i chose to put the mouth. there are also many other considerations that i took that just dont show so obviously in the end. she has a long neck because i dint feel like drawing shoulders. and also because it cut out the curve of the neck and made the whole thing appear short=less cool. like most of you may know already, im ANAL. yeah yeah so the secret to the proportions in my drawings is out. and my style. just to prove my point+ to show that i wasn't entirely slacking off. this is not the kind of thing that i invent just to show in my prep work, unlike some other processes that can be faked, LOL. this is wad i do for almost everything. *pant*pant*pant* anyway, all the above is because im frustrated at myself for being so slow+making excuses so i can feel better enough to sleep peacefully tonight. i feel better already =D oh ya i would definitely cut my hair this short if it means it will turn out as cool as how i draw it. but guess chances are that it will not. not seeing certain pple online makes me feel kinda lonely. i am going to swim tomorrow! dont be lazy, its just downstairs from my house! how hard can that be?! speaking of which, the gym is too! dont pretend i dont know! *psycho-es myself in first person* i never talk to myself in real life. [/EDIT] OMG im editing because i spotted typos and grammar mistakes in my own post.
