Well, to be blunt, I am probably one of the nerdiest people you'll ever meet. Don't be jealous of my awesomeness~ ;D Simple as that.

Onesie #6

Whew. Finally finished #3 for set two, which means I am FINISHED with my onesies! ; Q;
I'm really tired now though...

So, here's the dealio. Finally figured out the planet tutorial I found and understood it, so I used it and made my own planet~ Pretty nifty, huh? :]
After making the planet, I knew that there should be something whether it was a shooting star, meteors, or something and then I saw a real life photo of the Earth and the sun and thought of adding a sun! So I added one and made some lighting affects. Sounds super easy, but this one was pretty tricky. Wouldn't work the way I wanted it to. After finishing it, I am QUITE sleepy~ Being in front of a computer for a long time relly wipes you out x____x

Also, I've been having some issues with blogger. Every time I want to comment on another person's post, it just won't let me. I try using my google account, but for some reason it doesn't let me :( Always says:
"Your current account (czaikoski@gmail.com) does not have access to view this page.

Lame.

Anywho~ here's the design. Once again, screw the sizing. Too tired to mess with it.

Onesie #5

I. Am. On. A. ROLL~
Onesie #2 for set 2! :D

So, once again, I founda fabulous tutorial on shooting stars and I went for it~
Everything is handmade; no photography or other's photography. Pretty neat, huh? And the best part was the fact that it was so easy.

But see, now that I have the shooting stars and background, I feel like there should be... more, y'know? I just don't know what, though. I was thinking about adding a small and simple drawing of a person looking at the stars but I was having some issues with drawing it. Then I was like, well, how about some text? That didn't look right. So now I am left with a onesie that's missing something. Ideas would be fabulous.

Onesie #4 :D

Whoo!! Finished a onesie for the second set~ :D
So, this theme is Space/Sky. I came up with the idea... randomly, and I found some FABULOUS tutorials on Smashing Magazine's website. I was very excited about this since I love space and sky images. As they said on the website, "Humans have always had an infatuation with the air above us and the space around our planet."

This actually didn't take very long to make. I was super happy about this since I need to quickly make the rest of my assignments.
My favorite part would be the background of the onesie. I was really happy with how it turned out. It looks pretty cool and realistic in my opinion :]
I will say, though, that there were moments where I wanted to punch Photoshop in the face if it was a person >>:[

Advice Poster Redone

So~ finally worked on recreating my advice poster. I finished it last night actually but I was just so tired of Photoshop that I called it good for the day.

I obviously fixed the ear, which was the main reason why I had to redo this poster. Hopefully it's a better fix, because honestly, I'm kinda feeling done with this poster -____-"
And compared to the original, I changed a good chunk of things. I was kinda sad that I didn't keep my mint green/hot pink colors and changed the mint to a softer blue, but it felt right. I didn't like the idea of having the mint and the blue clashing and competing for attention, so I simply chose one over the other.

I also got rid of her clanky leg belts. I loved the idea, but it just didn't turn out right, so I got rid of those and gave her some different clothes. Rather than the weird vest, I gave her a jacket that was inspired by Tidus from Final Fantasy X (everything I do is video game inspired... :'D) If I went more detailed with the jacket, it would be a... hm, well, I guess it would be a more structured and firmer jacket. Like, it wouldn't really flow with the wind like some do. Anywho, I gave her a patterned shirt that wasn't so unnoticable. The other one was just so... plain. It almost matched her skin tone o___o"
And the boots were less constricting and I gave her a tattoo. Much better~ :]

So, when I was creating the background, I was trying to repeat the same idea with the previous poster and it just wasn't working. Plus, I felt that since her shirt was already diagonal with the stripes, I shouldn't make the text that way because it would look odd. So I just made to go horizontal and I made to fade more so that the person would notice the drawing more rather than having a smack in the face wow poster where you don't really know what to look at. I actually stumbled into that idea and I really liked how it turned out. And of course, I had to keep the paint splotches.

So there we are~ Took me two, long and stressful days to complete. Now on to other assignments
;_____;
I realized not too long ago that I still have quite a few things left for homework. Ugh.... Not happy.

Ah screw the sizing! I'll just leave it big x____x
