I know the kiriban is kind of sudden;; but I think it'd be fun to do a request for somebody : DDD

I want to set some restrictions, though.

I won't do furry, mecha, pr0n or gory stuff.

_{I can't help but get a little worried that it might get missed.} L-LOL;; But THAT'S OKAY. I just feel like doing requests.

So catch it, yeah?
If you do, just screen shot it and link it in a note.

HAI GAIZ.

I'm sorry for not uploading alot. I doodle often, but I never get around to actually doing good stuff. orz. I'm trying to get the hang of doing backgrounds. _{Which isn't going too swell.} YAYAY.

But I'll learn, okay? o 3o,,

ANYWAYS.

So, I was talking to a friend of mine. (If you didn't know, I play the violin. My friend plays the viola) We were talking about how in a lot of poorly constructed orchestras, second violins are very commonly "worse" than the firsts.

Imma get a little orch dorky here--but the seconds and firsts should BOTH be strong.

But I digress...

So I mentioned that I read a manga (BL; G Senjou no Neko/Il Gatto Sul G... THIRD VOLUME FINALLY CAME OUT. What was it--more than four years since the second volume was released? I'm not really happy with the ending, either DD : ) that had good drawings of people playing the violin. In G Senjou no Neko, you can tell Miyagi Tooko either had prior knowledge of music or researched properly.

I've seen TOO many pictures/anime/manga where the animators or artists obviously didn't reference other pictures for accuracy. Whenever I see them, I can't help but face palm.
I realize people make mistakes, but still... = ^=

For example, in a certain Code Geass doujinshi I've read.

Lelouch is playing the violin (which is REALLY random, by the way : /), which is fine...




... unless it looks like THIS: [link]

After showing it to my friend, I realized it should've really looked like: [link]

For those who aren't string instrument savvy: a violin would sound like a banshee if the bow was playing ALL THE WAY UP THAR DD<

lolol... I don't know, but it really makes me face palm when I see pictures like that.

Quick sketch of how it should be done: [link]

SO--DO YOUR RESEARCH, YEAH?

AND.

Akuroku day is tomorrow!

Also, has anybody else watched Perseids? The meteor shower?
y wy I've never seen a shooting star. So, hopefully I'll be able to see a lot tonight.
