Back to 2015!

WE'RE BACK TO THE FUTURE! GRAB YOUR HOVERBOARD AND LET'S PARTY!

How was 2014?</div>

Veeery busy! I'd say that this is the WORKIEST YEAR of all!

I feel very blessed to have my actual job OMG MOAR POEMS! , I mean, my dream job as a concept artist, and not only that, is in one of my fandoms! It's a real challenge to manage with my poorest skill at backgrounds, but this is what I like about challenges, I've been learning a lot through this last months.
On the other side, I've been the most absent from my art social networks, mostly because I'm trapped in another project I can't slip away, and it consumes all my art time, I still get my own healthy free times, but I prefer to spend these playing videogames or with my friends than drawing, I just get very tired to do so :( so no personal work or commissions in any level.

But that's just on the art side, I've got lots of fun times this year with my friends with lots of travels to tropical lands, SDCC again with even more friends tagging along, and also made new ones at my japanese class, on which I just made my N5 test, I hope that listening part doesn't screw up my score! haha

I hope you also had an incredible year! I really miss being in here and to improve on my artsyle, but that's gonna by my purpose this 2015, so let's review my last year resolutions!

THE NINTH!


I'm really amazed to get my 9th DD! When I first started in this site over 10 years ago I thought that I'd get as much as 2. I'm so happy to see this fanart through my DD section: saiyagina.deviantart.com/dds/

Ofrenda Banjo Kazooie by SaiyaGina

I'm really happy that Ginryuzaki took her time to suggest it and that Ry-Spirit featured it. Because it was one of the thoughest fanart pieces I've done, and a major challenge to mix it with el Día de los Muertos theme, so it's not like any fanart I've done, I'm really proud of it regardless of their popularity.

Life status


It's been very busy days since my San Diego Comic Con trip, which was absolutely fun! I bought a box of 36 Copics! I wonder how much art I'll make from these :D
In the last journal, I was promoting a workshop but in the end I had to cancel because of the really bad coordination and behavior from the people who contacted me.

On the bright side I had lots of fun works and I'm currently doing a couple commissions and collabs, it's not that I'm available to these, but I know these clients for long time =)

And I'm learning japanese again! I really suck at it but I'm beginning to understand some kanjis and I can finally tell "sa" from "chi" apart =P
