There's a moderately large amount of guests on right now but after seeing 21 guests online on the GGaD wikia last week I am not impressed.
Okay really though where do all these guests come from.

My guess? Bots. They do take a liking to user-made sites, probably because they tend to have less security.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/15/2020 3:31 am

Ah, that's an interesting guess! It's kinda weird to just see them there anyways.
I do remember we got some users that strangely seemed like advertising bots. So your guess is not a wild guess.

Aaaalright I finished the form for RA.
I need to rest now because I'm planning to do some serious work tomorrow once and for all.

Also to bake banana bread >:3.

Decreasing the temperature is supposed to also decrease the motion of particles but I can say the same for my fingers.
The colder they are, the slower I type.

Hahahaha.

*cracks knuckles*
Time to start the final stretch of the piece. The deadline for submissions got extended for a few days, so >

Also did you know that I often say/write "knack cruckles" instead of "crack knuckles" lol

Ah yes I'm finally done clearing away all the coloring. I'd say I'm done with the painting itself... but I need my dad to check it first to see if I need to edit/add anything.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/16/2020 10:20 pm

Gosh I'm so proud of this. I'mma post it on my gallery.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 2:09 pm

I consider myself to be more of an artist than a writer. Mostly because most of the time I do feel a strong urge to draw, but not so much for writing.
If I practiced at least some more with writing, I could probably be better and actually share some of it.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 2:10 pm

Most of my writings are random scenes I get in my mind though.
In fact, I have tons of ideas to write. I just don't act on anh of them.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 2:11 pm

Sometimes I think it's funny how I have to wait pretty much all day just to make a phone call lol.
But when I do use the phone to call my friend, I can hog it up for like two hours so it's fair

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 2:13 pm

My markers are running out of ink :/ and I can't get a refill ah. Even though I haven't really used them much lately. Only for touches here and there.
Coloring with markers is my favorite medium. I've always liked it better than pencils or paints. Now, tho, I'm practicing with regular coloring pencils.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 6:51 pm

Don'tcha think it's funny how sometimes time passes by reaaaaaally slowly when you want it to go by faster?

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 7:07 pm

I have learned how to make sturdy paper planes and I'm gonna create a whole army fleet >:3

SpecterTheGreat · 6/18/2020 9:57 pm

I did something else instead but I am gathering the paper for said army.
I will do it at some point.
I SHALL.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/21/2020 5:19 pm

Do you ever see a drawing of something/someone (even if it's fictional or just an OC) and just stare at it like
(╯✧ ∇ ✧)╯
Because that's what my mood generally is hehehe

SpecterTheGreat · 6/21/2020 5:21 pm

I'm a sucker for hair and eyes so that's generally one of the first things my focus goes to in a piece, even before proportions hehee

Doesn't really help that I in my drawings do the eyes too large because of that reason xD

SpecterTheGreat · 6/21/2020 5:24 pm

Last night I went on a drawing spree and I have three pieces to show for it, which is definitely more than the usual amount that end up decent (which would be 0-1) so idk
I'm inking everything now and once more I'm uhhhhh about coloring because I am still not very confident in my coloring skills with colored pencils.
Also because I have only two skin colors (more like one, since the other one is more sand-colored than skin-tone hehehe) and it's for fair skin. Much blending is required to do darker tones and well I'm oops about that since I do enjoy drawing characters with darker skin tones. Especially tannish and stuff. And I don't want to make those too brown, more like tan.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/21/2020 5:24 pm

I still do wonder why I have so many shades of green. Even neon green lol.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/22/2020 1:46 am

I don't like my gray pencil haha it looks as if it has some sort of brown hue in it and it's just,,, weird.

SpecterTheGreat · 6/22/2020 1:47 am

Also right now I'm listening to this orchestra play Undertale music and "Bonetrousle" started off in the marimba and can I just say it's amazing how that instrument always makes the bone sounds sound so... bone-ish?

SpecterTheGreat · 6/23/2020 6:29 pm

Does anyone else here like murder mysteries 👀

SpecterTheGreat · 6/25/2020 5:57 pm

Oof the temperatures here are getting colder.
At least it's the perfect weather for warm milk and pie >:3. Time to get baking!

Time · 6/26/2020 12:45 am

I've never really done read/watch with murder mysteries, but I think they're cool!

Wait why is it getting colder it's summer

SpecterTheGreat · 6/26/2020 1:00 am

Nope, my friend. It seems you have forgotten that the Southern Hemisphere, in which I reside, is starting winter.
