All month leading up to the new Iron Man 3 movie, I was on an “Iron Man kick”. I read the comics, I rewatched the movies, I did a few videos relating to
Iron Man. One was a digital painting of Iron Man that was based on of his suit in Stark Resilient. The other video was a vlog/review talking about Iron Man: Extremis and a little bit about speculations about the movie.
Even though I did a lot dealing with Iron Man, was that enough?
NO!!

So I’m not the world’s best painter…I know that, and I’m ok with that. But recently I did a painting and you know what I noticed makes painting easier? Here are some tips and tricks on making your paintings better!
I used:
Markers
Oil Pastels
Extra Sheets of Paper
Tape
So you might be wondering “how on earth are these suppose to help make my painting better?!”
Well…simple!
I LOVE using a marker to help my paintings look better….this really is an awesome tip that I can’t believe I never thought of earlier honestly! (probably because I don’t paint that often xD)
So this idea stems from comic book [ ... ]

I just wanted to make a quick post about a drawing I just finished. Here’s what the process basically looked like.
I always think it’s cool and interesting to see an artist’s process. I mean by looking at another artist’s process, I was able to learn how to draw chrome! I didn’t achieve is nearly as well as the other artist did, but still it was very helpful just watching the artist work!
My drawing took about 7 hours. That’s actually rather long for a drawing for me…I average between 4 and 5 [ ... ]

The new Iron Man movie is coming out in just a few short weeks? Who’s excited!?!
ME!!!
I can not WAIT! Usually when fans can’t wait for something to come out, they re-do stuff….for example they reply preivous games, reread books and in this case, watch the first movies. Or reread books…since Iron Man is both a movie and a book! lol
Lately I’ve been reading Stark Resilient which comes after Extremis but since I haven’t read it and since the movie was coming out, I thought reading Extremis was a good idea! So I did! And I made a video talking about it!

It’s not uncommon knowledge that Photoshop is a powerful tool that is used by companies to change the look of photos. But is it wrong to change people’s appearance or settings just to make them look better?
My answer is: What? No way!
Do you know why I say it? Because its common knowledge! If everyone knows photos in magazines are retouched, why does it matter? They’re visually pleasing and that’s the point isn’t it?
If you watch The Photoshop Effect, with Sarah Fit, whose fabulous by the way lol, you’ll see and interview with a professional retouched who says [ ... ]

For some reason, I had the sudden inspiration to turn a man into a woman into photoshop….just to see if I could do it. And that’s one of the best things – to have the inspiration to create a piece of art, and not worry about the out come because all you’re really doing is experimenting. The last time I did that was probably a year or two ago when I created the zombie/burned photo manipulation in photoshop!
Believe it or not, the “Man to Woman Transformation” was much more difficult! Probably because boobs are harder to put on a [ ... ]

So I’ve seen many “Photoshop Fail” photos online and I began to wonder if they were just for attention or if people really didn’t know how to properly retouch photos. So I decided to make a tutorial on how to use the liquify tool!
First, let me show you a couple of retouches I’ve done so you don’t think I”m just a person who can talk the talk, but not walk the walk lol
This photo is by Thy Darkest Hour on DeviantART. You can clearly see the difference in the
original (left) and the retouch (right). To retouch this, [ ... ]

I’ve been watching Youtube ever since the site started in 2005, but would only go there once in a while to just catch a few videos. But over the last couple of years, I’ve been activity checking it for uploads more then once a day! I love checking out videos and what my subscriptions have uploaded.
My favorite Youtubers right now are probably Pewdiepie and Bubzbeauty.
After watching so many videos, my dad suggested to me that I should make some! I’ve been watching speed drawings a lot at the time so we decided it [ ... ]

So today I uploaded an animation based on weird things my friends do (hence the name hehe) so basically it’s jus a simple segmented animation done in after effects.
This means the pictures you see are broken into pieces then put together in after effects. You can see when the arms bend there’s a suggestion it’s segmented. I guess someone could use the puppet tool but I couldn’t get it to really cooperate with me! Lol
So let me explain whats going on in each scene =)
Scene 1 – Cat Attack!!
So in this scene we see a friend of mine [ ... ]

So I love watching Let’s Plays on YouTube…and if you don’t know what that is, it’s a video of people playing games…basically lol I watch quite a bit of Let’s Plays; I’ve watched all of RoosterTeeth’s Let’s Plays, I just started watching Pewdiepie and I’ve been watching TobyGames. Almost every time I’m on YouTube (which is everyday, let’s face it lol) I watch at least one…maybe two…Let’s Plays.
After I started watching Pewdiepie, though, I just decided….ya know? I LOVE Let’s Plays so much, they’re so much fun to watch, why not make one? It’s a simple formula that brought [ ... ]
