About Me
Well, I'm a girl who is currently in highschool wanting to grow up to be an author/animator/movie director person. I like anime, books, music, film, and furries. I don't know that much else, sorry! ^^;;;
I do a Slice of Life comic called Furry Life and a fantasy adventure called The Last Dragon! Goo see 'em!

Comment on Computer Drama of Furry Life: Dorm Life

If you notice the date, I did this a while ago and just left it as a backup if I hit comic
block on an update day.
So yeah, those "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercials. I hate them. And you can't tell me I don't have the right to. As an owner of both a Mac and a PC, I can gladly say they both suck and rock at the same time.
There are some basic things I can't do on a Mac without performing circus stunts on the keyboard whereas with a PC it only takes a single button. That virus thing? It's only a matter of time before all you Mac fanatics will start getting them too.
PCs already have viruses, and they ARE complicated. But that doesn't mean Macs are wonderful godlike computers. To me, they're overpriced pieces of metal that you can't personalize or fix yourself at all.
My opinion. They both suck. And those commercials are pretentious bullshit.

Daylight savings time cuts down sleep for college students. Don't care that we gained an
hour, we had to get up early to sign up for classes. Poor Reba, she's having a bad day...

This actually happened. Yay for being able to eat what you want because you burn it off
anyway by walking wherever you want to go!

Comment on Sorry of The Last Dragon

Sorry guys, I know it's been a long time since a new page. I've been going through a few
big shifts in my life, college homework, getting food, looking for a job, and other kinds
of stuff really gets in the way of comic making.
Besides, looking back on this gem gives me the willies every time I see it. Since starting this comic, I've gone from colored pencils to OpenCanvas to Gimp to Pen to Sai to Gimp again to OC again and on to Photoshop. Right now I'm loving Photoshop, I don't have to transfer the entire page to MS Paint to put in the speech bubbles. But it still doesn't make me feel better about it.
For the longest time this was an excuse to practice whatever digital art program I had at the time. But comic pages for a story I'm fond of don't equal challenges.
So the comic is going on a permanent hiatus, and eventually a redux. But I'm going to do it properly. Like, with an actual script, then a plan for what the page looks like before I start drawing it on the Mac.
I'm really sick of looking back on this comic and seeing nothing but doodle like illustrations, cheap coloring, run-on sentences, and no background.
Gimme at least a year before you start seeing concept art for the new version. I'll keep these crappy pages up for you guys to look back on as proof of the terribleness before the new shiny version.
You can still keep up with my other comic, Furry Life: Dorm Life along with my DA account(located in my personal page here on SJ). Once again, sorry guys, sorry to force you to look at these crappy comic pages!

Yep, this is continuing as a half-assed storyline. But expect once in a while one shot
breaks from the storyline.
And yes, my mom almost Hobbes glomped me.

This page was practice for my drawing style. I'm trying to steer away from the whole
chibi anime style and more of a Chuck Jones style when the characters are really
expressive.
... And yes, I DO own that plush...

Just letting you good folks at home that this is the last FLDL you'll see...
Until October!
HA!
Yep, first quarter has ended and I'm going home for the two week break. President Obama and a bunch of other world leaders are coming to Pittsburgh for a meeting and the school wants us OUT. I'm happy to oblige anyway, I miss my family back home. Get ready for some doodles as I am bringing my sketchbook with me, if I can, maybe I'll upload some comics while I'm down there! :D Only time will tell!
