Hey everybody, just stopping by. ^_^

Yes, I realise I do not use deviantART all that much, but I really don't use the internet all that much. ^^; Internet life really isn't my thing, and even though real life out there isn't my thing either, I've been mostly busy with, as well as content with, working with my brothers on our art group, Celestial Time Miracles Studios, which focuses on Online Graphic Novels, much like webcomics or webmanga, if you will. :aww:

We have our own webserver again at CelestialTimeMiracles.com, which we've been working on ever since the beginning of March, although we've had bumps here and there, namely due to a lowsome virus bug that just won't go away (I blame the weather, if anything, but I've heard living near a river can cause illness to increase, so perhaps that could be why, too).

We've been working on alot of artwork, from sketches to colouring, and preparing website layouts which are all hand-drawn now featuring our graphic novel characters. You'll all be able to see them soon once we finish up our art gallery's layout, and I'll be sure to share everything here once 'tis all settled. :aww:

In other news, my brothers and I've gotten into a hilarious and cute YouTube series called Stupid Mario Bros., and I daresay,'tis a must see for all Nintendo fans! :giggle:

Well, that is all. I don't assume you'll see me around much here or elsewhere, but I'll be sure to keep stopping by every now and then. Until next time, take care.

Peace! :peace:

Working on artwork, and MQ's 10th year coming up.

For the past two days, I've been colouring one of my sketches from last Summertime's huge creativity burst over our graphic novel projects. From a song that my brothers and I loved, we drew each of the main characters for Magicus Quest, deciding on the homepage's layout.

In a few days - possibly tonight, or tomorrow - I will be finished with it, and my brothers will be working on their parts (I have a second part to work on, but I'll take a few days break first). I've been working on colouring Sha Agate's part of the layout, and in a few days, I'll be colouring Bartholomew Wood's part - Samuel has already finished up Harvey Johnson's part (quite a while back), and now Samuel and Leon only need to work on Michael Agate and Robert Agate's part (seperately, of course).

As of St. Patrick's Day this month, it will mark exactly ten years now for Magicus Quest - my brothers and I are eager to have a revamped Celestial Time Miracles Studios headquarters homepage online, as well as the homepage for Magicus Quest itself! =)

My Blade Runner fanlistings.

All rightie, last night I spent time working on my Pris fanlisting and my Roy Batty fanlisting, both of which are listed at TheFanlistings.org, I also finally got a short url for my Pris x Roy fanlisting so I will be linking that here once again. =)

Endlose Liebe ist Dich ... the Pris x Roy fanlisting

('Endlose Liebe ist Dich' is German, it means, 'Endless/Eternal Love is you' as speaking to a female, such as Roy to Pris... originally taken from a CTM graphic novel scene between two star-crossed lovers, but anyhow... Roy actually does know German in Blade Runner - at one scene, when his hand is failing him, he murmurs, 'Bitte!', which is German for, 'Please!'.)

x Broken Doll x the Pris fanlisting

('Broken Doll' actually came from my LiveJournal... I view myself as broken, and as Sha Agate in MQ is often referred to as a 'doll' of sorts, I thought it would also well suit Pris. ♥)

Fallen Angel x the Roy Batty fanlisting

('Fallen Angel' could suit Roy, because while he did mean well with seeking life for his fellow replicants and himself; Roy could never escape the fact he was made for killing, being a combat model and soldier. Well, all of that, and Roy was a very well-written character with Rutger Hauer's inputs being valued by Ridley Scott, and so, many could very well say Roy was a symbolic and spiritual sort of character - not biased to Christianity at all, but as a sort of symbol of Hope in general to all whom value the most precious gift of all; Life.)

Oh yes, another BR fanlisting is in the works - J.F. Sebastian was one I was approved for on 2/22 (a number that haunts my brothers and I...) and I'll be applying for other related fanlistings in the future when I have the time (such as the relationship between Pris and Sebastian, for example ♥). =)

Out with the bad...

I entered into the month of March feeling ill; my brothers, mother and I had fallen to a dreadful flu, of which the worst were the first twenty-four hours (one of those nasty vomiting viruses, which I would be grateful to never catch again), with headaches, dizziness, confusion and pain lasting for quite a few days afterwards. Only yesterday was I able to confidently say to myself that I felt completely better, although I confess to still feeling fatigued, but that's normal for me, unfortunately.

March is not one of my favourite months, but it does favourably bring the Springtime with it... I wonder when Easter is. If I were more awake, I'd probably be bothered enough to go check it up or ask somebody who would know off the top of their head, but as I only woke up some time ago, I'm just taking it easy and not giving much energy into anything as it were.

Speaking of viruses, my laptop had actually been "broken" for quite some time because of a virus (and many, many adware tracking cookies) I had apparently picked up via the ads on deviantART. I spoke more of this in my dA journal (which I don't update often, actually): http://undead-doll.deviantart.com/journal/30727597/

But anyhow, I found a good website online where I was able to download missing files in the registry, such as the ".exe" file - at first, I had thought it not to work, but the following day, I was surprised to see the laptop starting up as it normally did before the virus had struck it, and was relieved I didn't need to once again re-install my wireless network card to even go online this time, because the laptop is once again able to recognise the files needed for most programs. :)

With the refreshing Spring just around the corner, I do hope my brothers and I are able to get back to working on CTM related duties, and hopefully we will be able to afford our own webserver again very soon. God, I have missed artwork and writing! Well, those, and our other projects as well, but namely artwork and writing, as that was always my favourite (followed by filming, and music). ^_^

On the previous subject, I think my obsession with finding a job had been the major cause for myself to fall ill, because I haven't been doing much to relax nor take care of my health for the past few months, so I guess now I'll just take it easy, as Mother and my brothers tell me to (actually, all my friends say the same thing... mmph, I suppose I have to, with everybody against me on that one!)

Although, I do have good news in that regard - I found a place in a nearby city where I can go into training for fifteen months to become a practical nurse, which Mom approves of. And I'm thinking I could do this... I could train to become a nurse, which will be a good paying and steady job (once out of training, I hope to work with children), and while I'm training with my nurse duties, I could do freelance work and other things on the side, which should help with family issues and help me overcome my shyness around other people (I am rather awkward around others, I don't think I always say the right things either, but oh well).

Oh yes, on a sidenote, I now have a Soul Calibur dedicated blog which can be found here: http://undead-doll.blogspot.com/

My SC GameBlog will be covering thoughts and SC related projects (such as fanart and fanfiction), just for fun because I have seriously missed Soul Calibur and it's fun to have silly hobbies on the side as such. :)
