You be warned, this entry has a lot of FOOD pictures right at the end of the post :P
Here’s a non related close up shot of Meow taken on 20th when he was being nosy about something I was doing at the time which I cannot remember now ^^;
This week managed to finish a record speed little commission for Otaku Dan! :D Very happy to be chosen to refresh the mascot/logo, the mascot is so cute, like a mochi with ears, tail and glasses ^O^ ^^; want to eat it lol!
Click on image below to see the page introducing the art ^^/
I draw full time for cartoondollemporium.com but occassionally I do take a freelance commission or 2, have to squeeze it into free time sometimes if the commission has more details ^^; Each commission work is different, so charge and time to complete differ per client ^^; Example if the mascot is a full size girl with detailed clothing etc, it’ll cost more than drawing a mochi mascot with a face and accessory :) Currently I have a couple things in queue ^^; (Sorry for the wait!)
I must apologize for the lack of art related entries these days, caring for an old sick cat is a lot of work and it did take it’s toll on both me and husband. ^^; Everyday revolves around checking Meow to make sure he’s eating, peeing + pooing and feeding him medication (am sure even you guys are sick of hearing me talk about this lol!) Good thoughts from everyone helps tho :) Thanks a bunch! He’s not 100% yet but we hope he’s slowly getting there!
Tonite I was playing with my dwarf hammy Ebichu, so I took a few quick pictures of her. I LOLed when I saw that I managed to catch a very rare picture of her tongue! How cute is that?!
This is a kinda non art related post unless you want to count this postit art my husband drew :P
There’s a sneak peek of something I was working on near end of this entry tho ;D
Our poor senior Meowmeow was sick since monday (started puking around 4 am on monday and puked every other hour o_o), very bad for him, our finances and all of our stress level ^^; Hopefully it’s nothing super major since blood work and xray was non conclusive at the moment.
I drew a few artwork earlier this month, wondering which to pick for the first post in this new blog. This one I’m showcasing now was one of them. Currently still in the “planning what colour to use” stage, hence the flat-ness :) Couldn’t resist adding a hint of blush tho ;)
I was trying to update the other sections of the gallery BUT I encountered a strange bug :P when I added a bunch of thumbnails my widgets and links on the side bar is pushed all the way to the bottom ^^; SO, gotta have hubs check it later on, sorry for the delay ^^;/
So how’s the snow+ice situation these days? I’ll let photos do the talking…
This is a semi test post! Haven’t been able to update my blog for a little bit due to some weird bug ^^;, mucked around a bit and I hope it’s working nao (fingers crossed). Like I mentioned before, I am very pleased to managed to get a special arrival before the new year, her name is Mirai Yukino! ^O^ She is a Dollfie Dream :)
For moar pix clickie here ^^/!
What was I doing on New Year eve? Preparing a feast food! :P I got some help here and there and hubs cleaned up most of it (with some help from me of course), so I really shouldn’t complain, we also have some left over to help us tide over the ridiculous amount of snow we been getting…
(We’re kinda trapped at home again! =_=;)

Today on my way out to get mail I saw a couple kids playing in the snow, like 1 foot deep kinda snow ^^; After I started walking back home I couldn’t resist the temptation anymore….. and the result is….
Nyaaaa!
It’s been a LONG day but I thought okay I should do an update with actually an artwork before I hit the sack ^^; So Z kindly commissioned me to do a Light Yagami Fan art in Nendoriod/SD form ^^ (for a non commercial personal use). Thanks again Z for your kind support!
It was fun doing this piece and I am very glad you’re okay with me showcasing it (partially, cos Z gets the full view lol) :)
Usually with commission work, cost varies with amount of details, size and what it is use for etc :3 I don’t always show case every single piece of commission I do, partly due to privacy of the clients and also I tend to showcase what I’m more likely prefer to draw. I hope it does not look like I only draw anime style, I draw other style/stuff too but I preferred to be commissioned on more anime-ish style I guess! :) With my work related stuff usually I will double check with clients (Example Danny and CDE) before I post stuff here.
Why was today such a long day? I went to donate blood with the hubs, it is kinda my 2nd attempt to donate blood, first time I went with a friend (who has since relocated to USA) and my blood iron was barely enough, so I couldn’t donate. This time I actually got to the getting my blood drawn stage but I started feeling weird, so the nurses stopped the process ^^; Well hopefully better luck next time :P Hubs managed to donate successfully but he’s now so tired he went to bed early. (good boy) :P
Hope you peeps don’t mind photo dumps (as Mimi likes to call it) lol! I know someone mentioned that it’s slow loading, I apologise for that :P Hopefully will be able to fix it in future ^^;
There are just times when I feel that my sketches are kinda blah due to drawing when I feel tired, so I rather not post those. This time I’ll share some photos of my hubs’ company party which we attended last nite :) As the party went on, it started snowing O_O!
Before I start on my actual post, I want to thank Meimi132 for showing us her Tare-DC teeshirt and plugging my website on hers and on dannychoo.com :D Thanks so so much, glad you like the tee-shirt ^O^! Also thanks Daemonseed for posting pix of his hoodie as a news item too ^^!
Hmmm I haven’t been drawing stuff decent to share this week (ack!) So hope you don’t mind a 2nd installment of “A day in Richmond” before I hit the sack today ^^;
