I just saw an advertisement for Gucci bags...Aren't they really popular or something? Well, they're HIDEOUS...I don't see how such ugly bags could get popular. Are they made out of some kind of special material or something?
That that black one's a sexy bag...>:3 Ooh, yes, wrinkly, shiny, black purses are really gorgeous! 
I hate that pattern that gucci bags have (well most of them) with the circles...I really don't like repetitive patterns...On anything....It has to have something different everywhere to keep my interest and to keep me wanting to look at it (though I'm not sure if checkers count...O.o).
Ah! XD That was pointless! XD
I've gotten halfway down my list...of manga from B-D...orz...TT^TT
I've found some good ones, some shounen ai and some shoujo...I've been in a shoujo mood today! ^A^
Oh! But I came upon a REALLY well draw manga...It's...just...so realistic...All the positions look like pictures taken from real life, it's GREAT and it's also very hilarious, but with real hilarity...Not that...comedy isn't real...O.o
It's called Beshari Gurashi. It's about Japanese comedy...well, this guy who wants to be a comedian. At first I didn't think I'd like it because...I didn't think I really liked Japanese comedy...but...it just has some hilarious parts! XD I guess you have to think in more of a realistic style. Like if you were there in person hearing their comedy or see them doing such funny things, how would react? For me, when I watch comedy on TV I'm really strict and I rarely laugh, but when I see it in real life I just can't stop laughing even if it's really stupid! XD
Though I get annoyed when people keep making sexual jokes...>.> I mean, sometimes they're funny, but they're really boring. I can just go on and on with sexual jokes and the kids at my table (lunch table, the band table, though I'm not in it, most of my friends sit at that table and I guess I'm popular since my brother is popular at that table...XD High School is weird...XD)...But sometimes the kids at that table laugh at me for strange reasons and it makes me feel really bad...Like I like holding people's arms...(their arms, not their hands, I mean literally...when I'm bored and they're not doing anything with theirs I'll just pick it up and play with them) and they just started laughing at me calling me weird and then my friend, who never laughs at me when I do that to her laughed and me and called me a weirdo....TT^TT Well, I think it's because she liked the guy...>.> I don't like him...he's mean and not funny and he has a really bad tone of voice...>.> Like he sounds like he's making fun of you when he talks, even if it's just normally, and he never seems to be...at peace, I guess...>.>
Well, sorry about that! XD I kinda went onto another topic! XD
Then the rest were shoujo...that were...good, I guess. There's one that I kinda like where there is this girl who goes to the library often and one day she falls asleep and somebody kisses her and she wakes up to find only the handsome boys of her school in the library, so she wonders who did it...
It's called Boku wa Kisu de Uso wo Tsuku. 'tis very interesting...I'm for ze kitty boy no matter what! X3 I like his hair and...he likes cats! *thumbs up*
.....
........
Wait a minute....I'm not half way! XD I'm half way down a PAGE, but not half way down my list...I haven't even gotten tot he C's yet...maybe I should stop reading this one crappy manga I'm reading...It goes way too fast, the art is crappy, and the lines are stupid, but story is...okay...Ehhh....*tosses it*
I'm not going to finish by school time...XD
Plus I want to work on some manga...tomorrow...I just need to find 3 notebooks, because I want to be organized this time (because last time I wrote my story in my notebook, then wrote something else, and this was the same notebook I had written other things in, and then I drew the story, and it was all messed up)...
GAH!! TT^TT My computer is running really slow...as if I'm typing faster than my computer can comprehend it...TT^TT So if there are things misspelled it's because I was typing so fast and my fingers were going everywhere and I may have typed the wrong key at the wrong time or in the wrong place and I didn't see it because I don't see the text until like 2 seconds after I type it.....>.>
Back to what I was saying. I need 3 notebooks, one for the script or outline (I actually like writing it in a light novel style format so that it's easier to remember what I was thinking and it seems more like a scene in my head than people talking), one for the name (read Bakuman...I don't even know if that's an official word of something Obata/Ohba-san made up...It's basically an outline, really simple, so that you know what you want to do and what angle and stuff and what you want in each panel and how you want it to flow on the page), and one for the somewhat final product, where I'd draw it all out how I want ti to be, but then I'll redraw it all on the computer and see if I want to fix anything (that way I can try to make the best quality).
Oh! Oh! I just feel like giving random tips and advice from my point of view! From my point of view, when doing manga I would suggest that instead of doing scripts, write it out in a light novel format. This is so that you can more clearly picture what's going on and better capture the feelings of the character and page.
A light novel format would be somewhat like a novel, but with less description and more dialogue, but it's paced at the right kind of pace. Like if there was action going on, you would either just add in random sound effects or quickly describe random things, like if you were to name moves that the fighter was doing (if they're fighting). Or if it's slow and suspenseful you would describe in more detail the surroundings of the character. And usually it's done in first person (though you don't have to do that, I've just noticed a lot of the light novels I've read are in first person) so you can better capture the main character's feelings.
(Guhhh...I just accidentally read spoilers for Bakuman...I hate you Takagi...>.> I should really get back to reading that...XD But I'm annoyed by Takagi's love life...>.> It's creating unneeded drama when I just want to know about Mashiro and Eiji...>.>...*cough* I'm talking about the manga rivalry! Not pairing up of Mashiro and Eiji! XD)
Anyways! XD Then with the name-- I mean outline thingy...I can't find any pictures, unfortunately...orz...So i'll just try to explain it. It's basically where you draw out the paneling, and then you write the dialogue and everything, but you kinda draw the actual pictures in the panel, just make them really simplified so you get the general idea. And you can put little notes saying what angle and emotions and stuff like that. If you've ever seen the pages that Ohba-san did for Death Note, then you'll know what I'm talking about. They're simplified and not that great...I actually think they're called thumbnails, now that I think about it...O.o
They're pretty useful, because I usually mess up a TON when I just straight and draw the actual manga without any outlining. Outlining is your best friend in any art situation. You usually get better quality outcomes when you do.
Now, I know you're probably wanting to go back and look at my pitiful attempts at manga...TT^TT I know what to do...I just haven't done it, or have lost interest in what I'm doing so I never post it (that or I have a really mean scanner who won't let me scan it properly...STOP PUTTING LINES THROUGH MY ART, YOU EVIL SCANNER! TT^TT).
I'm probably going to do a series of one shot shoujo manga...Then if I'm in the seinen mood I'll do that...but not right now. Right now I'm focusing on shoujo manga one shots...because for me their more fun and interesting and easy. For seinen you have to think of a short plot, a good plot, and a good ending. For shoujo manga, when it's a romance, all you have to do is make a good plot, tell it well, and then the girl gets the guy, and there, it's over....But if I come up with something good and I post it and I get a lot of feedback and support I might make it longer or continue it...But that's only if I get that kind of motivation...and if I post something...O.o
Saying that, if I do post something and you guys beg me to continue it, but it's not something that I could actually continue, then I'm not going to continue it. Like if it ends up being kind of like a triangle love or something, something with more candidates and what-not, then I'll continue it. But if it's just a plain black and white ending, I'm not continuing it.
By the way, 360 isn't supposed to be a plain black and white romance thing. We have Mariko who love Kiyoshi already, and then you have Kiyoshi who seems to become more close to her, but I actually have several people to mix in to make that black and white more colourful! >:D Kiyoshi has a rival, also, and there's other members of 360, y'know...>:D
I'd post another chapter of 360...if I knew what was going to happen...O.o i'm a bit clueless right now....XD
Ummm...I should get back to reading manga...LONG LIST! EEP! TT^TT
