Fudgers...I have way too many stories. Start with one. Move on to the next. Easier said than done. Mortal Adamant? Unicorn one first? Cecille first? Witch one first? Mermaids?
Then I have even more than that which will definitely come after those five... like Lady Pig (mature but certainly not as dark as the ones above)
Legend of the Mortal Adamant: kind of hard to explain without explicitly mentioning my first chapter, but it involves stones/gems used as a source of power so people use Monste' (creatures born with the same energy-sometimes even having it embedded within their bodies) are used as partners when going into wildernesses or other lands to cultivate and mine more gems for the sake of creating more buildings..etc. Adaca is the main character who is girly as can be, but goes through the examination to become a Juul Knight despite her lack of resonance with energy gems and girly behavior she is more committed and physically powerful. Stein is a Juul Inspector (rank above knight) who takes an interest in Adaca after seeing her most surprising Monste', Bai, the ginoiro (who are meant to be kind creatures). Samea "Sam"is a primary character who is strong-willed from a long line of knights though low-ranking, she is still proud and is immediately insulted by Stein. Following this she drags along a boy her age with amazing jewel resonance named Aron to follow around Stein and Adaca eventually finding out a darker history from both of them and a prophecy that sends the world of Roq into chaos.
(I should probably post something more detailed about each of these stories...I do have a bible of sorts.)
Dream Spice: (this is the mermaids one- loosely based on many different mermaid tales and cojoined into a darker story of happy colored fish ladies) It revolves around Derket (who I have a drawing of) the pink spotted mermaid. She is a Majess (their word for a witch) who makes many medicines and shell spells for the merfolk. She is also an incredibly powerful mermaid and a little thicker than most. After an encounter with a red-dazzled mermaid named Cyren who is outcasted by the mergua society Derket finds herself revisiting old acquaintances. Cyren has only one friend who is unique, talented, and powerful named Srasva ( a purple fin), but even she can't grant her a wish and adamantly refuses to try. Cyren unlike most mermaids is slow, not powerful, no battle talents, or swim skills, or singing skills and considered useless she braved the tops and found one human (which was a long standing myth to them) male and took a liking to the accepting gentleman. After going through many other Majess who fail in turning her human she bumps into Derket who not only knows of the spell, but instantly helps her. After a week Derket goes above with human feet to check on Cyren and finds that the red haired beauty stepped into an ugly dark secret of Derket's. Hell breaks loose when Derket turns her mergua again and Srasva enters the scene to start a bloody path. Humans get involved seeing mermaids for the first time and find that such pretty faces and luring voices are more dangerous than a shark.
Cecille: It's about Cecille, a mage, who first makes a public appearance by killing the tourists and keepers of the old Repo House leaving only two survivors: Eric Repo (on the same night discovers his youngest sister went missing) and Layla (who after this trains in anti-magic weapons). Later she runs into Cerion Amat (a ten year old noble mage) and unwittingly is followed by him. She then attacks the royal family where Eric and Layla remain as guards to the party of mages throughout the country. But with a few mishaps she ends up dragging Cerion to her home and her plans of ruling dominance. Unfortunately she slowly falls into Cerion's hands as he naively and innocently breaks her down and slowly unravels her history, her desires, her anger, and her revenge. Eric in his own form of revenge relentlessly searches to destroy her and finds out more things about her and himself than he intended.
The White Hunt: With obvious allusions to the "Hunt of the Unicorn" tapestries, "lady and the unicorn" tapestries, the "last unicorn", a biblical allusion mentioning horses that I won't go into detail, and many tales of unicorns throughout different countries this story is in the same world as Cecille but hundreds of years before where culture and history is very much different. The main character is Kirin "Ki" who is a Kirin (Japanese unicorn-I have my own version of this drawn on DA) in human form uncreatively named by her adopted human brother Dirsten when he was five. At age eighteen (presumably since she can't recollect anything before she met Dirsten) she looks like a twelve year old human girl. After a sleepover with her friend Vince, one of the members ends up dead. She ends up in the middle of an ugly battle constantly running away with Vince hovering over her at all times. Two factions are at war with each other The Magic Faction and the Vigor Faction. These are two different branches of energy, but both are trying to capture The White Unicorn in order to further their own factions. While the legendary unicorn is the only creature known to simultaneously use both energies, only the white unicorn can give or take both energies to humans at a large. While hunting down unicorns of all varieties the faction leads many into human form of which Ki meets and hides her true nature from everyone except her brother. It soon comes that she isn't the only white bodied unicorn and four of them are needed to end the powers of one energy altogether which is the true intent of the factions. Unicorns themselves are fighting and killing and eating human bodies while she stands in the middle learning to choose what she wants.
Crafti Magicus- A lighter story than the ones above (but still has blood and content to be dark enough than my lighter stories) is about the witch Endor Pumpkin and the Spirit (which is a different sort of human-think of it as races) Abris Agrippa who among a bump in the clouds end up falling into another world where tall buildings of squares and rectangles exist, pumpkin shaped houses along with the rectangle ones and witches use wands instead of incantations and spell-balls! Even the words are mightily confused where spirit is nothing more than a left over projection of the dead. To endure this confused reality where magic is domestic instead of violent Endor and Abris learn to work against their prejudices of each other and the long standing feud between Spirits and the witches and wizards of Hallows Country. For now they are stuck in Crafti Magicus- a city of witches and wizards who don't fly on brooms but own cats of black, upturned noses, "schools", and shawls! But as the two learn to get along the grand high witch of Hallows Country finds Endor and tries to kill her for betrayal. While this is certainly more fun than the ones above it contains darker bloodier elements than a young teenager rating (though that matters little when there is internet access).
I have some of these drawings on my DA profile whether in main gallery or scraps. I'm working on drawing Endor right now though.

Breezy Weezy
On the path of never ending rest! Oh so typical of me. Anyways I'm going to be busy....busy....busy. Seriously I wonder if I like doing this to myself. I got artwork to do, but almost all of it I can't show yet. My portfolio show was successful and sent quite a bit smirk to a certain person who couldn't see my work over another's (rather shabby pieces) being good.
Then I lost my id cards and BART found it again... wahoo! Thank you! Bart! for actually looking for my files.

Quick drawing
Taru (character) done quickly in Flash. No sketching. Just did it with a mouse as usual because the wonderful me has no tablet and I had free time.
This is the child version of the character that inspired the animation of her "doll version", because Taru has a doll of herself that I originally wanted to move and she catches sight of it.

Tweaking
As the title suggests I'm tweaking my things for my group's short film Chalk Dragon.
These are the shot sequences I had to animate....
One of the takes. I think I cut too much of her off. Not sure. Still need to tweak this one a lot more for the eye up, then do the take.

Good Twin being kind of angry
One of the takes. I think I cut too much of her off. Not sure. Still need to tweak this one a lot more for the eye up, then do the take.
The second take I had to animate. This one is more jittery, but a bit better placed than the other one.

Most Updated DEMO Reel
This is mostly finished.
I think my Taru Doll and the JW need the most work however.
But I've been told the Taru Doll is such a strong design than what my Flash teacher has seen before. Improve that and it could be one of my better pieces.
Of course I've added a bit more body and squashing to Lady Pig- the girl who should have worn a red dress instead of the 'puuurrple' dress.
I'm going to write Lady Pig her own books...but they're darker stories than child looking pig.

A Night Background
This is a background I'm making for another Flash animation just for fun.
I really have no idea what to add to it though...
