So, I've had enough of the real world for a while so I'm off. Off on an art holiday for a week where I do little more then play PSP and draw!
See you in a week with lots of uploads!

Why Hello Again!
Hello All!
How are you doing? I've recently got back from a fantastic time at the Rosadoll Con (http://www.rosadoll.co.uk) :iconrosadoll: It will be running next year and seriously my BJD friends, make time for it, it really was a fantastic Con, never a dull moment, but save your pennies because the bring and buy is an awesome way to grab some very much needed BJD things without the cost of shipping and customs!
Art wise things are on the move, I hope, though I'm very much having a 'I need to sort my life out' moment xD I suppose that can't be helped, I do have a lot of personal things going on but for once I wont bore you with them!
I would however, like a chance to tell you all, I now have a website,blog spot and twitter and would love it if you could go along book mark or add me. I'm thinking of a Tumblr, I'm just not so sure on it at the moment heh! The advantage of checking out my website is that you get sneak previews at THE ART OF SHADOWS and their shiny finished version as well as some unique artwork I might not show on here!
You can find me at my own website;

Also, please don't forget, I am available for commission both in terms of art and for face ups on BJDs as well as having some prints for sale!
You can see all about them here: http://syrynlauncher.deviantart.com/journal/42793888/

Getting the hang of digital!
Been working some more on 'Meant for Me' the manga being written by Kerry Wadsley and Illustrated by myself.
This is the insert page for the manga 'Meant for Me' This is essentially the first page a visual introduction to the characters who will be involved in the story ^_^
So far I've ten pages written out and have begun sketching them all, next to ink and so on. Its a real challenge.
Here you can see the cover:

Where does the time go?
Where does the time go?
Is it just me who thinks this year is flying by so so fast? We're already in July and worse yet nearing August! I'm still hoping to get The Art Of Shadows published by the end of this year though! I've found and joined a new website to help get some notice of my drawings hopefully soon, its called Paper Demon, any one else hear of it?
Please remember guys I'm still up for commission, I'm still doing face ups and I've still got some prints for sale too < 3 So if you fancy getting some prints or a pretty face on your BJD just drop me a note!
The projects that I'm working on are still Meant for Me the manga which I'm really enjoying I've the first part planned out already and the first few pages done. As well as Art Of Shadows which I'd say is abouy 60% complete so far!
I'm ratehr excited about FFXIII- 2 which hopefully we'll see in January hopefully! Apart from that, how is every one else hm?

Back into the Digital Frey!
So I've been avoiding it for as long as I could now, but oddly starting Tales of Symphonia again reminded me of how much I wanted to colour again, I finally bit the bullet and got some help and got on with it. I'm actually very pleased with the results!
So what do you guys think?

Reasons for doing it? Well I've been putting it off for a while now, I've scrapped my digital artwork at the moment, and yeah, money wise things aren't great and I need to get my head straight, art helps that, so er, go figure I guess! So if you have some spare pennies, please help a gal out? <3
