CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!




Today sucked, pretty much starting with me oversleeping this morning. I'm tired, and if there is school tomorrow, I will cry. Which means there probably will be. Bah.

EDIT: Kaori Yuki is the most inconsistant mangaka I've ever tried to deal with when it comes to clothing, I think. Even the shikifuku and Tatsumi's yukata weren't this bad - Alexis's outfit changes drastically between panels. Like colors keep changing, he gets an entirely different shirt-collar, and one of his undercoats goes from double-breasted, to single-breasted, to double-breasted, to single-breasted, and back to double-breasted.*grumble*

this is interesting

Re character clothes: It is the worst when artists don't know the material they're drawing. A while ago Anna pointed out to me that she finally figured out one of the main reasons why Guilty Gear characters' clothes are so weird - Daisuke Ishiwatari doesn't seem to understand how belts work. He often draws buckles backwards, with the tongue pointing the wrong way, so that if they were real, the belt would just pull open.

> I sleep twelve hours a night when I can, forget to brush my teeth, and eat sugar out of a bowl.

WOW. I mean, I do the first two all the time (and feel bad about forgetting to brush my teeth), but eating sugar out of a bowl? That's intense.

> Best Clothing Style: Anything other than ghetto.

The only, and most common, thing that can be wrong with ghetto fabulous is "not enough fabulous" :)

> I have over 36 in my CD cases I carry with me alone. In other words, a lot.

Ehh, that doesn't really imply a lot. It's not like you're one of those people who keeps a binder of 200 CDs in their car...

I did too.

Well, after making some X/1999 stuff, I came to the conclusion that CLAMP doesn't know how seams work. The cut of at least one of the outfits I did makes no sense in the front. But at least it's a consistant sort of not-knowing-how-seams-work. This is just...not paying attention at _all_ I guess.

And the sugar is mostly when we run out of good snack food here and I'm having a bad day and need something sweet.

As for the CDs, I only carry 40 or so with me on a regular basis, but my dad is one of those people with 200 CDs in his car, and I think I could safely estimate that that amoung the four of us, the people in this house collectively own over 400 or 500 CDs. Which makes estimating a number that are mine bigger than 40 just 'lots', particularly if we're including burned music CDs.

She's terrible, isn't she? XD; Riff's pockets and entire tailcoat like to appear and disappear within the course of one scene... but my favorite is when Cain's (and occaisionally Riff's) clothing flies off for no apparent reason.
