Hello, people is Posia! So as you are not aware of I just did a challenge, a Ten Different Style Challenge, and I have to say I think I did an ok job. I recorded myself doing it and so on my Youtube Channel you get to see how I did and I have to say some were easy and some were not so. I had a hard time with the Disney Princess one, Dragon Ball Z, and Teen Titans Go one, I did it from my head and it wasn't the easiest to do that, I did look up a few times but not during the recording.
So yeah I hope it was fine and I think you should try it and I might try it again with different other styles, I picked these ones cause they are what I like to watch now and back then when I was a kid. But if I do it again I want to do the Winx Club, the Simpson, and such. I don't know if I will do another one but this one was fun and was challenging.
I didn't post this picture in my last post, for the last post I was talking about my videos of Part One Part Two and Part three on how I colored this picture. You can check it out on my channel here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfOcx7d6JnRsy1G8ucBVAgg?view_as=subscriber or check out my last post.
I also just did a recent video about Spiders.
I am not a big fan of spiders, are you? If you are and like to study spiders I am sorry if my killing spiders offends you for I am killing spiders in this video. Yes, I kill spiders, if I see one I go for the kill, I do sometimes grab them with toilet paper and flush them down the toilet thinking they might survive 50/50.
My family growing up always ask me to kill the spiders for I am the brave one, I don't know how it became like that for when I see one I do get terrified and just quickly get rid of them, soon my family notices how I just do it and always ask me to do it, even though every time I get terrified doing it I do it. Now I am only terrified the poisonous ones like black widows, brown recluse, and hobos spiders. My best friend got bitten by one, a hobo spider, (I don't know if that's how you spell them) but she almost died from that spider.
I pray so hard at night that no black widows or anything like that bit my kids at night, for I live in a place that is invested in spiders, I see spiders every day and I don't like it not one bit.
This video is different than any other video I have done, I told the story while drawing it out, I have seen other videos like that and I don't know how they do it for they do a lot better job than me but I enjoy watching those so I wanted to try and I don't think I did a terrible job but I know it isn't the best.
But the point is the story is told, I told my two stories that I had experience with spiders, the first story is about a spider that attacked me by jumping on my hand and such and then I found his twin brother. The next story was about how we found a whole field of tiny spiders on a bunch of webs and it was all over me and my sister. It might be exaggerating a little bit but the point was it scared me and made me stay indoors for a while.
So yeah the spider video is different compared to what I did before. Like the season one was on my I pad that has been destroyed but I was able to do it on an app that was easy to animate.
My first kiss video was on an animation software that I can't use anymore cause my new laptop doesn't have a CD thing so I can download it again, but that animation program really blew my mind.
And for the most recent videos that I have done has been done on my amazing paint program call Medibang, I do it layer by layer and it takes forever but really any of these videos take a good amount of time to do it.
I'll probably do a video tutorial about how I animat, I don't know when I'll do that for I am tied up with other projects, one of them is potty training my daughter for it's time to get her on the potty.
I did a video that took over an hour to do so I broke up the video into three parts for I didn't want to speed forward it. I wanted to try something different to try to teach how to paint on Medibang, so far I have no luck on viewers and I think that's why I am so down lately. I didn't think it would make a lot of views but I thought maybe just at least 2 views like I would get on my other videos but so far these videos haven't. Yeah I know started a YouTube channel will be tough I didn't think I'll get famous right away or anything like that I just try to make videos that people want to watch, people in the art world I guess that want to watch I don't know I just don't know how to get people to watch my videos.
I guess I just have to wait it out or something, I still enjoy making these videos I just wish I get more viewers. When I was working at my job I invited people to my channel, I write it out and such and give it to them and still my channel hasn't changed.
I am still proud of some of my videos, my fat comic video is still rising, it has 76 views now and that's a lot to me, my first kiss video has some good views too, it has about 50 views and it took a year to make it to that. So my fat comic is the winner I think.
Someone I know that has subscribed to my channel told me how my videos only get two views and it really hurt me cause I know that and they don't need to rub that in. I am trying to get more viewers I am up to criticism for suggestions, and I am sorry about my singing I can't change that for also I record my songs on my phone and don't have the best system to make my songs glamourous. I wish I did, I wish I had a way to make my music better for I have a little talent in the music side. I did teach guitar to kids at one point in my life.
Painting Digitally on Medibang Part one: Skin
I wanted to show how to color each part of this picture and this video shows all about how to color skin, there are many different ways to color skin because no one is the same, skin color is different on everyone and I like that for it gives the character a character and everyone is great no matter what they look like.
Also, I do skin first when I paint, I don't know if there is a reference to what's goes first or what but that's what I do.
Painting Digitally on Medibang Part 2: Hair and clothes
Painting Digitally on Medibang Part 3: Eyes and the Background
This last part for this picture was a big stretch for I was hearing my kid crying which means I need to hurry and finish this picture for my recording system is so limited how much I can record so I was trying to hurry. My voice is more tired in this video and I am sorry about that it is tiring to talk while doing this is exhausting, it's a multitask thing and it was hard to do, I don't know how others do it or how gamers do it cause it gets tiring and wish you don't have to say something but I felt like I had to talk or else this video would have been very boring.
So for the past, while I have told you that I am going to Fan-X, and I got my costume!!! I am so excited it was unexpected for a long while I had nothing to wear for Fan-X and then my mother in law asked me about it and decided to look at Amazon to find something cheap, I found a cool Zelda Kimono, it's not cheap but she got it for me and I am eternally grateful for her I want to wear it every day!! I got it just the other day and she also got me a cheap sword and shield. I died.
I love it, I tried it on and the skirt is a little snug but the top part is so big that if we got a bigger size it might go way over my hands. I can't wait to wear it for Fan-X.
My friend and I are basically prepared, we got all the posters we want printed and have the stuff to set it up, my mother in law asked if I am doing any posters of just my work, for the posters we have is where she drew them and I colored them. I told her no I have nothing of my stuff we are just doing what we did together, she suggests me to do some of mine. So it took a while but I think I have picked out the pictures I want to do. I am only doing three cause I am not that popular or anything but maybe these pictures will help me get there.
I picked this one cause it shows that I not only do anime, and shows my religious side. But this is also really awesome and I think it will get people eye.
This is Moon Princess, and I had a lot of people liking this one and it's one of my personal favorites and hope one day I will start this story for it is one of my dark precious story. It will not be kid-friendly, it will be good for older people for the soldier has a dark background and is a fantastic swordsman ship. A lot of blood, and lots of gore. But this is a really good story for the love he has for the princess shines his dark side and he becomes the greatest hero ever.
Five Star Princesses, I haven't started this story yet either but I hope I will one day for this is a fun magical girl story, and people like magical girls right? I do when I was younger, I watched Sailor Moon, Mew Mew Power, Mermaid Melody, Do-Re-Mi, Power Puff Girls, Princess Tutu, and Pretear. These five-star princesses are sisters and have to save the star kingdom which is basically the whole galaxy.
What do you think? Should I do these three or should something different, for there are two others that I had a hard time deciding.
This Blanket Girl and...
This fairy girl, I think these two pictures can represent me and what I can draw, I have adored these pictures as well and would like to more so I can add these two but I think three should be fine.
I hope to see you at Fan-X in Salt Lake City Utah, September 5-7.
Hello, people from Posiea! I made another video of one of my originals songs, I wanted to do a picture that was like a good spiritual or just a good inspiration picture, and my original song called Don't You Cry popped in my head.
Now I have done other videos with my songs, the boyfriend, the car, the hourglass, and Fake smiles. And I don't get a lot of views on any of them but it's something I like to do cause it's like sharing two of my talents I have.
Now I don't have a fancy recording system, in fact, I just use my phone voice memo thing to record my songs for that's all I have and know how to do. So I know it's not the best sound, and I know I don't have the greatest voice. But like I said, making songs and singing to them is one of my favorite things to do so sharing my songs and my art is something I like to do.
The song Don't You Cry is supposed to be about the struggles we face in life and all we want to do is cry, don't just cry but cry to our Lord our God. I am religious and believe in God and his son, and I have noticed in my life that it is better crying my problems to him than just by myself. So that's what's it's supposed to be.
I wrote this song when I was 16, and whenever I want to sing about God I don't like using the word God so I use Lord, I don't know why I just don't feel comfortable to say, God, Lord is sufficient.
Here are the lyrics
1 verse:
Crayons are colored on these walls
the black pains are starting to cover up your painting
forget the fight won't work
but forgive will relieve the grieve
Lay back and listen Your heart is cracking up a storm
Lay back and listen you look at yourself in the wrong way
Chorus:
Don't You Cry for the Lord loves you
you can stand up tall for the waves are
coming bigger
bigger
the waves are coming bigger
2 verse:
You feel the paper cutting your skin
the options are giving to you
the blessing are giving to you
and you use them wrong and
feel the terror coming to your head
Tears and pain can't solve on any bites
Tears and laughter can make it go away
3 verse:
Don't You cry for the Lord loves
for the lord is your shoulder oh
cry for strength that he can give you
and his love can lift your burdens
This song may look strange, but every word means something. The first verse is supposed to be about the anger you feel when you see something not right, like for example children coloring your walls and you have to clean it up. And don't you ever get into a fight and even though you stopped talking about it you still want too for it runs through your head over and over again and just can't forget it, you want to say something about it or just have an apology.
When I said 'Lay back and listen you look at yourself the wrong way' was suppose to be about for those that are struggling with their bodies, how they stopped eating cause they want to be fat, or put tons of makeup so they don't look ugly that kind of thing. They try too hard to look perfect and that's not what God wants, for he loves you no matter what you look like.
The options and blessing are being used wrong are supposed to be about how you decide not to do the right option and go off the wrong one and can't see the blessings that came from the good choices. Tears and pain and solve on any bites is just a formality when you cry cause you're in pain doesn't make the pain go away, but when you laugh it can help the pain, doesn't necessarily pain the pain go away all the way but like you can conquer it.
Everything else should be explanatory, I think it's a good song and has helped me in times of need or a reminder of need. I have other songs that follow this category and I do hope you get to hear them one day, and maybe one day I'll have a better recording system. For a friend of my mine did tell me that I need to echo my voice...I don't have that nor do I think I'll ever do that unless it's necessary. ( I honestly didn't really get what she meant by that, echo my voice?)
I have other news I have finally figured out what I'm going to be for fan-X and it's all thanks to my mother-in-law, we were talking about it, looking up what I want to be and see if anything on amazon I could try for a cheap price. Well, what I found something that wasn't cheap but without my knowledge she got it and I am so grateful for her forever. It's a Zelda outfit, I AM GOING TO BE LINK!!! I hope you guys are going to Fan-x it's like comic con here in Salt Lake City Utah on September 5-7, I am so exciting for it.
Hello, people is Posiea!! Haha, I have no idea whats Posiea is that an actual place? Does anyone know what that is? For I say that to my videos but it came from when I was like 13 I started saying that to my friends and family when I see them. It's just something I say and can't figure out where it came from.
I got not much to say but that I AM GOING TO FAN-X IN SEPTEMBER @ SALT LAKE CITY UTAH, and you should totally come for I will not only be there I am there in a booth with my good friend Sara that arrange this whole thing, but I am also so excited for it!!!
So yeah that's going to be happen soon, I don't know if I am allowed to share what art we are going to sell for the past month and a half I've been coloring pictures for it, my friend Sara has been drawing them and then ask me to color them, she has also got them into poster form and got poster holders for them. It's legit.
So yeah fun stuff, but have to get thru August first so that's going to be a while, both of my kids birthday are on this month. And I cannot believe it, both of my girls going to be older and it feels too fast. Last year I gave birth to my second kid and that was...ok, I was dying for her to come out and so happy she is here with me, she has been a light of my life in my dark times. She's like a light fairy or my Sunshine cause that's what she is, my first kid is my Princess, a very bratty one, but she is my princess.
Anyways I wasn't sure what I was going to talk about with this post so here are some comics I have done in the past months.
I was watching Amazing World of Gumball and the mother was yelling saying, "Why do men tell women to smile!?!?!" or something like that don't quote me on that, but point is when she said that it reminded me all the times when most people all my life told me to smile when I was down and it just made me feel worse when they told me. I don't know why that is but it is, and so I thought up of this comic.
One particular when I was on my mission and witness my mission companion to go home early cause of health issues, the problem was I loved her, she was my favorite companion compared to some, so when she flew home I was sad and had to go to this choir practice thing at a church building with all other missionaries and one (new) Elder missionary that I don't really know who was telling me to smile, smile big, and I just burst into tears. Well, not publicly I left the room into the restroom and cried.
And another time I was at church for a ceremony of my graduation from Seminary, and the stake president in my area was the one greeting us all and when I came to him I was smiling but when it was all over he shook my parents hands and kept saying, "You need to get this girl to smile," and that just AAHHHHH!!!! Are you kidding me? Sure I wasn't smiling when we were just sitting there waiting to be called up, but I was smiling when I came up and shook his hand, why the heck!!!
This is not necessarily true for I can get my kids to sleep just fine, but I saw a meme that is similar to this so I decided to so the same thing but different.
I thought up of this one when I was trying to sleep for some reason I couldn't for a while so I only got a few hours of sleep, but point is the baby started crying at seven and I was up and going for the day, and I notice that my hubby wakes up by his alarm clock on his phone so I felt like my kids are the alarm clocks I don't need an actual one.
I was watching a kid for a friend and she told me to do this when he's upset, well when I did it was no good, and it got me thinking how when my siblings or parents watch my kids and the same trick I use don't work for them while watching my kids, so I thought maybe I can try making a comic out of it, but I guess it's not funny unless you get it.
I get so frustrated when my password doesn't work. And I feel like I was correct and the computer phone was wrong, but I get a new password anyways and when I try my usual password it tells me I can't use it for I already did and that gets me so mad!
Ok, do I really need to explain about this one? I mean who hasn't dealt with this problem at least once in their lifetime and it doesn't haven
When I work on my laptop I listen to Dr. Phil or music, and when I listen to music there would be times when it's my favorite song I stop what I am doing and dance and sing along.
This is a four separate thing for Instagram it sometimes doesn't show my whole comic cause of the size of it so I try to downsize it, but when this idea I did four different pictures that are supposed to be together. I did this one first and then ask my sister what should Nonny and Tutu say and this is what they said.
I did this last one for the point is NO ONE should ever say that horseradish is not good PLAIN. I was trick one time to eat some and it was the worst experience I have experienced. Well one of the worst, my knee surgery is beyond the worst.
There's a lot more of comics on my facebook and Instagram go check them out. Which one was your favorite?
The first book that I have ever started was The Lost Fairy, it was originally going to be the Last fairy but I added fairies and so that wouldn't work so it became The Lost Fairy, the problem was with that story is that I didn't know where to go with it, I kept changing it and wanted my sister to draw the story for she was better at drawing than me at the time, (I was like 12 when I wanted to draw stories). But she wouldn't draw and I got too frustrated on what to do with the story, so I decided to do something on my own and started on Five Stars Princess, and I got far on it, my older sister helps here and there on the drawing and the story.
Since I was only like 12 when I really started drawing I had people made fun on my artwork, one particularly never liked my drawings. And it hurt every time cause I know that I wasn't good at it but it didn't mean she had to rub it in, and she wasn't that great either, she would never draw hands and I tried to draw the hands cause you can't have the character always having their hands behind their backs every picture.
I still was her friend in Jr. High School, she was the one that got me into anime and manga and that's all we would talk about and yeah I like it but didn't like how she would criticize me on my artwork, she would always tell me how bad I am and it would never look good. I hated it every time for I was just learning and knew myself that it wasn't the best but her criticism just made me keep going. I would constantly draw, I never went anywhere without my sketchbook. I would sit and draw and draw. Every birthday and Christmas I ask for sketches books and pencils.
Since I can't dance anymore (because of my knee) the new passion that I wanted to be good at is drawing, drawing manga, become a comic artist, that became a new goal for me and I am fulfilling it. I never saw my friend again, for she moved during summertime and didn't tell anyone. I tried searching for her on facebook and such but no luck. I want her to know how much I have improved and that I am trying still to publish my books.
I need to finish Sweet and Sour which is taking forever, I am on a part that is not exciting but is important to have but has no desire to draw it, so I am procrastinating at it.
Sweet and Sour is a cute story and has a very good message, I only did this book to do a trail with, for I prefer my other books for they are long and exciting, but I start with this one so I know how to do stuff on my laptop and tablet for I am used too to do it on my sketchbook and a pencil. When I got the tablet I had no clue how to use it, so Sweet and Sour is a test trail and you can tell from the first attempt to the latest there's a big difference.
This was my first attempt coloring.
And here's my second attempt after a year, I have improved 10 plus!!
It looks so much better, and not only has my coloring improved, but my skills in doing comics have also.
This was the first comic page I ever did on my tablet, and I was trying to figure out all the tools and such, it looks ok just I can tell I was learning how to do the shading and such.
This is the latest page I just did the other day, you can tell the shading looks a little better and it doesn't have to be so detail to impress the reader, at least I think so. I thought I had to add all bunch of crap but really you don't need too when I read manga some are very detail and very cool but some others are not and they are still a good story.
So I know the more you practice the more good you will be, I didn't start out good but the more I did it the better it got and easier it got, it was hard to draw I thought I'll never draw hands good but YOU WILL. It will happen over time.
Now say that for that's what happens to me, the more I drew the more it got easier and better, but I have met one particular person and she was drawing like me but...it wasn't good...now I never told her I would tell her advice but also tell her what I like. Over the years I thought she would get it like me, but till this day...it hasn't improved. I don't know how or why that is but it is.
....
I hope by the time I write another blog that I have gotten another page down, I still try to do a page a day but did do a project that took me over a month to do. I am going to Fan-X with my buddy and we are selling posters and books. Our art. So I have been coloring 14 pictures, and I really enjoyed doing it it has improved my coloring skills even more.
If you guys going to be at Fan-X here at Salt Lake City Utah in September you can look for me and my buddy.
I don't know if my buddy wants me to share the pictures we are doing so I will hold off on it, but she is the one that is selling her books that I have helped color the front cover, it's a good clean book.
The fourth one is also coming soon, she has accomplished so much I hope to get there too. I have been so excited about this event it's like Christmas to me.
