Karuta Time!

Feliz Dia de las Madres 2017

Eso es para la madre de mi esposo. Fui muy bien, y me alegro estar parte de su familia. Feliz dia de las Madres, y espero que te tengo por mucho mas años despues.

Then vs Now

Here we have on the left, the very first picture I had ever coloured, and on the right, a redo of it with all the lessons I learned in texture, shading, etc applied. I think it’s a good example of how far I’ve come from my start, and how much I’ve improved. I hope to continue improving.

The character belongs to Labyrinth of Magic and Ohtaka, The image is from the manga.

Tinkerbell

My first attempt at a realistic painting. The original image was a colouring book page, and I just tried to paint over it. It was a lot of work, but I’m proud of the end result, and I hope you all like it too. 

Icons

Did some icons for some characters of mine. Please don’t take them, I worked hard with these. Magi belongs to Ohtaka. These images are from the manga.

Some pictures of Yunan~ Some of these are really early works, some of these are more recent. The artists for the original line art are as follows

1. An Icon taken from the labyrinth of magic manga. Owned by Ohtaka-sensei. 

2. I’m not precisely sure if this is accurate. The furthest I could trace the line art back to was Zahedra Henderson on Pintrest. So I believe that’s the original artist. Please feel free to let me know if you find someone else as the source. The line art I took can be found here.

3. Again, not precisely sure who the original artist was. I had downloaded it through Pintrest which stated it was saved from Tumblr. The only version I could find of it on Tumblr was this which I’m hoping is the original one. If anyone can give me further information please send it to me.

Morgan the Fly

Morgan is a fruit fly. An art piece I did for a stream companion.

The Lesbian Sword Wife

Happy Pride Month. Hope you enjoy the colouring. The original line art is by Michelle Hoefener and can be found here. Please support the original artist.

Super Realism

It was an attempt at taking a line art and turning it into a realistic photo. The original is by artgerm and can be found here. It was a lot of hard work, but I hope you like the end result. I chose to remove some of the details to make it easier to do realistically.

Karuta Time Update

Already people have been graciously helping to get all the sets, and I’ve gotten another set collected, which has been posted before this update. There’s still a few more sets to go though, and every little bit is appreciated. Small steps at a time though. Currently, I’m still missing the following cards (Listed in both the English set and the actual Kana):

A, I, U, E, O 　　　　　あ　い　う　え　お Ka, Ki, Ku, Ke, Ko　　  か　き　く　け　こ Sa, Su, So　　　　　   さ　す　そ

Any one who further wishes to provide the Karuta cards to me so I can go back and translate the original sets, please send me a message. I have been able to somewhat narrow down the chapters that one might look to for certain cards, so if you don’t want to search through a lot of them, then feel free to ask before you start looking (in case you don’t have them already on hand.) If for any reason your message is not going through, please send me an ask with your name and I’ll get back to you. I request good quality images and require both the front and the back of the card in its original Japanese. Also, please include a link to your blog so I can give you the credit you deserve for the cards you provided. Thanks again to everyone for their support.

I hope you’ve all enjoyed the Karuta Card Translations.

12 Days of Artmas

On the tenth day of artmas, a painter gave to me, ten cat eyes peeping.

It’s 12 days of art to help improve my flow and style and capacity. One image every day
