It seems like Pottermore popped up way back and was all big and stuff, then it disappeared, and then it popped up a lot, and then disappeared again. I really don't know much about it. Would be interesting to see where I'd be sorted into, though.
(I thought "BAMF" was an amusing sound effect. It's a thing?)
and thank you! Yeah- I had to learn what a Pencil Skirt was a while ago...like when I was researching how to dress my body type properly >__> Oddly enough I actually don't own a pencil skirt at all! But if I did, it'd probably be the only skirt I'd wear in public ;__;
and yeah I know what you mean about the pottermore thing!! I think it was popular back when people had to jump through all kinds of hoops just to beta test it, and it kind of died down, but then it went into OPEN beta so everyone was joining because a lot of people grew up with HP- and if they didn't, all their friends did XD
People would still be having fun there, except that a) All you can do is fight and mix Potions, and b) Only book 1 is available to explore. I guess the second book needs to be unlocked, or something, idk O_O
Anyway thanks for commenting! I think I was kind of in a PSG-ish mood when I drew the face, for some reason XD
Kinda reminds me of the skirt Bel/Bianca wears (I still have to play B/W!). Someone called it a "cocoon skirt" and I thought that was an awesome name. They look nice, but I'd imagine they're hard to move in... especially if you're living the rugged lifestyle of a Pokemon Trainer.
I guess the closed beta made it all the more appealing because no one really knew that the hell it was back then, aside from it being something big with Harry Potter.
I remember some minigames in the DVD extras for the first movie. Picking out the wand was fun, but potion brewing didn't make any sense and it kept exploding on me. I guess that was quite a while ago, though... Making potions actually sounds kinda fun.
Do you work on your pictures at a bigger size and shrink it down for upload?
and nah- whatever I upload is usually what size it actually is. I SHOULD PROBABLY WORK AT A BIGGER SIZE AND THEN SHRINK IT DOWN. but idk. when its too big it warps my perception a bit XD I can't explain it! So I just draw it at whatever size and use the zoom in to do details/line-art and stuff. (Its an awful habit though)
I was looking up tutorials on how to make better lineart, and the only thing that didn't go over my head was "work on a bigger scale and then shrink it down". I thought the lineart on this picture was quite nice, so I figured I'd ask and see.
and yeah, I always had that problem too, especially whenever I'm working on paper. Tablets really are great, but you can do really nice line-art by mouse too, if you're willing to fiddle with the Pen Tool. Its kind of frustrating at fist, but once you get the hang of it, its not so bad :3 Sometimes I even use mouse and tablet interchangeably XD Tablet pen strokes for a more organic look, and the pen tool for more a clean look.
