Posted: November 22, 2009 Filed under: Art, Crappy Writing | Tags: fair, nanowrimo, sketch Leave a comment »ok, stats first for a change:
- Total words: 39,605 (almost 40k woo)
- Today’s words: 3,011
new chapters start at 85: Fair_Day22
today includes 2 new fights (starting with the one I ducked out of yesterday so you get to see Zephyr vs. Wiynd 😀 ) and in the other fight a major character dies for the first time in ages.
anyhoo, after a good days typing whats better to do than make a crapload of drawings? I wouldnt know, I never managed both at once, but I did try today, I started making some rough sketches for all the characters today, heres some that arent the worst:
left to right: Mavis, Jasu, Doll, Cadence, Ignus
anyhoo, thats me done for today, its time to continue my gintama marathon ^__^
edit: oh yeah, I can draw because I have hijacked my dad’s wacom 😀
Day 19, just illustrations

(and I’m reading the PDF to keep me from making any edits!)
however I have been doing a couple of sketchy sketches in my rarely used sketch book (been away from pc and this one I’m at doesent have a tablet… its like living in the 90s or something!)
so here is a sketch of Mav (adult mav, in non-psycho mode):
And here’s a sketch of Riopene and her puppet, it was more to get something in my head for the puppet, riopene herself looks horrible here so she will change totally, she looks more like a clown than some warlord.
I am really out of practice actually drawing stuff by hand, I guess that’s another thing I have to work on.
D-chan

what happens is she gets her wish granted… sort of, she actually becomes a reaper, and has to kill all the people due to die and go to hell in her town.
anyhoo, here’s how I imagine her ‘mid’ transform looks, her full one would be something pretty scary.
I thought almost immediately of a few plots and stories that could come out of it and I figured I might make a one-shot comic of the idea, but then I got to thinking that I could do some pretty original gameplay type stuff with the concept too, so she’s going on my ‘cool game ideas I want to make happen but probably wont have the time’ shelf.
oh, and the gameboy is her demon trainer’s earthly form, and he gets really pissed whenever he’s used to play actual video games, especially cute games 😀
anyhoo, I have a novel to get back to writing!
Day 11, != OTL, 3 milestones passed plus art!
Posted: November 11, 2009 Filed under: Art, Crappy Writing | Tags: fair, nanowrimo, sketch Leave a comment »So yeah, three milestones today:
- 30,000 words (woo)
- 69 Chapters
- 69 Pages
69 is a milestone? yes. it is 😐
also, here’s a quick sketch of Zephyr, also its the present zephyr, dont picture him like this in all those childhood flashbacks… please -_-;
now let me unload some stat-fu on yo’ ass:
- Total Words: 30,188
- Today’s words: 3,879 (booyah! I’m back on form!)
New chapters start at 63: Fair_Day11
now yesterday I promised this update would have, and I quote; “‘present’ chapters, hopefully a girl-on-girl kiss and maybe even a fight.”
well guess what, you get TWO fights, ones a little short but the other one is extra long and intense to make up for it. we also see Aella’s full potential power, and learn Polot’s motives in Kidnapping Claire and his mother… not to mention we have a flashback to a week or so before the white event itself, 80 years ago!
all in all I am very happy with today’s writings, and I’m about to reward myself with ice cream 😀
Day 6, Act one complete, new cover

also I made fresh art for the cover, (also its the first non-mspaint art on the blog, ohmigods!)
from left to right; Claire, Timon, Aella (also they may be the best clouds I've ever done in photoshop)
anyhoo, here are todays vitals:
- Total word count: 22,130
- Today’s count: 3,382 (back on form baby!)
ok, if you want to read it so far here is the pdf (new chapters start at 42): Fair_Day06
also seeing as how some of you guys have confessed to actually reading these updates, now you have to tell me what you think of the first act, what are your opinions on the characters? on the fights? or the story in general? you suckers admitted to reading this crap so now you have to tell me what you think! ha! =p
