Hiya! I've been keeping busy with schoolwork latey, but I've also been doing a lot of reading (Discworld) and video-gaming (Super Paper Mario). I've felt pretty crappy the last two weeks, but I think I'm on the other end of it and things'll be better.
I've decided to start uploading avatars at SheezyArt in sets by series (ex.
http://www.sheezyart.com/view/1675730/). So I've had to make a lot more avatars to catch up. By and large, I think they've turned out pretty awesome. Please check 'em out ^_^
Ayashi no Ceres:
Title: Fireworks
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Aya, Toya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I really like how this one turned out. Yeah fireworks! ^^
Also, note that I have not seen Ayashi no Ceres and I'm unsure if I'm getting the character names right, so if you've seen it feel free to correct me.
Title: Phantom Kiss
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Aya, Toya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: This one is probably the weakest of this set. Hard to get the colors to work out right. Hmmm.
Title: Huntress
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Ceres
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I really like the colors in this one ^^
Title: I Too Am Lost
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Aya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: This one took a lot of rearranging, but I really like how it came out in the end.
Title: Sweet Heaven
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Aya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I like how the background looks on this, but I'm not really fond of how the character looks. Too bright, methinks.
Title: Mystic Wind
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Toya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I like the colors on this, but the border could be better. Whatever I could say about Yu Watase's story telling skills (I've only seen Fushigi Yugi, and to be honest it's way out of my genre interest anyway, despite being fantasy, so I can hardly judge it) she draws a damn pretty picture.
Title: Country Road
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Aya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: Oooh, I really like how the background turned out on this. It worked out nice ^.^
Title: Just For You And Me
Series/Subject: Ayashi no Ceres, Aya, Toya
Subject Artist: Yu Watase
Excerpt: "not a living sould will/ remember us/ this is just for you and me" (Carly Simon)
Comment: Pretty manga. I'm surprised I haven't posted this in my journal yet. It was made before the others. *shrug*
Full Metal Alchemist:
Title: Grip
Series/Subject: Full Metal Alchemist, Edward Elric
Subject Artist: Hiromu Arakawa
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I only watched a few episodes and FMA was never my thing story or art-wise. I just can't stand angst, it bugs me! But I know that's just me and not everyone's that way. So here you go! I might watch the entire series someday anyway, just because I do find alchemy very interesting. But maybe not.
Title: Smile Stun
Series/Subject: Full Metal Alchemist, Edward Elric
Subject Artist: Hiromu Arakawa
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: Ummm...woo? Not much to say on this one.

Series/Subject: Full Metal Alchemist, Lust
Subject Artist: Hiromu Arakawa

Comments: Not sure about that red glow. Hmmm...I guess it turned out okay.
Title: Bright and Breezy
Series/Subject: Full Metal Alchemist, Winry Rockbell
Subject: Artist: Hiromu Arakawa
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I like the frame! Just read that Caitlin Glass is her English VA. Doesn't she do the voice of Hiyono (Spiral)? Kickass.
Title: Protocol
Series/Subject: Full Metal Alchemist, Riza Hawkeye
Subject Artist: Hiromu Arakawa
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: *shrug* Nothing to say...

Subject Artist: Jhonen Vasquez
Excerpt: "Everything is/Lasers with you" (quote from the show)
Comment: Grr...I spent a bunch of time trying a lot of things to make the text look good on this avatar, but it still doesn't look good!!!
Title: Gir!
Series/Subject: Invader Zim, Gir

Kingdom Hearts:
Title: Hayner
Series/Subject: Kingdom Hearts II, Hayner
Subject Artist: Square Enix
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: It used to say "Hayner" in a graffiti style font. But I just couldn't get it to look right...it made the avatar too crowded. So I axed it. I think it turned out well ^_^
Title: Waiting Isn't Enough
Series/Subject: Kingdom Hearts II, Kairi
Subject Artist: Square Enix
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I got some great KH II screenshots from here:

Comments: This one was made from another one of the gorgeous screenshots I found. Now, Riku fans, don't try to kill me or anything, but I never thought Riku was that cute in Kingdom Hearts, but he's definately cute in Kingdom Hearts II XD
Title: Simple and Clean
Series/Subject: Kingdom Hearts II, Sora
Subject Artist: Square Enix
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: Another new frame! I like how the brush looks in the background ^^
Title: Swept Away
Series/Subject: Kingdom Hearts II, Axel
Subject Artist: Square Enix
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: I actually don't have a lot of pictures of Axel, or to be honest most of Organization XIII (except for maybe Roxas), but I'll try to get more since I know that a lot of people like them.
Misc:
Title: Mothling
Series/Subject: N/A
Subject Artist: N/A
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: This was supposed to be just the background for an avatar, but it really wasn't working out with anything I put on it, and I guess I liked it too much to just throw it out. It's a moth on some flowers.

Series/Subject: N/A
Subject Artist: N/A
Excerpt: "would an insane person/ do this?!"
Comments: YES!!
Pokemon:
Title: Koffing!!
Series/Subject: Pokemon, Koffing
Subject: Artist: Satoshi Tajiri, Nintendo
Excerpt: N/A
Comments: Jenn and I were talking about which was better, Koffing/Weezing or Ekans/Arbok. I originally thought that Ekans/Arbok was better, just by virtue of being more badass. But Jenn said that Koffing/Weezing was better because he was dopier, and I think I agree XD

Series/Subject: Pokemon, May, Haruka

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle:
Title: Snowflake Glimmer
Series/Subject: Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, Fai D. Flourite
