✖ Your name?
Bunmi, Buu

✖ If possible, your age?
20...

✖ When did you start drawing?
When I was a young lass. Come on. I don't remember.

✖ Which hand do you use for drawing?
Right~

✖ Which is easier to draw - male or female?
Yeah guys are hard to draw so girls by default.

✖ Which is easier to draw - long hair or short hair?
I dunno.. they're just different...not any harder

✖ Is it easier to draw the head facing towards the right or the left?
Never thought of that...

✖ Is it easier to draw the side view of the face or the front view?
Front..profiles are freakin' hard!

✖ What do you have problems with in drawing?
Hands, perspective, cel shading, composition, anatomy, feet, expressions...a lot. :icontarddanceplz:

✖ What do you like to draw?
Nameless OC's that I should probably attempt to develop sometime

✖ Are you a traditional artist or a digital artist?
Mostly digital, although I do both

✖ Where do you start drawing from?
The head!! Circle, line, triangle chin :XD: It's how I start every time..even though it changes a lot from there.

✖ What is your drawing habit that you are aware of?
Inconsistency!! I really wish I had more patience so I could develop a cohesive style D:

✖ Any tips for coloring/shading?
You will be so much better at coloring if you spend the majority of your time teaching me...I promise.

✖ How long does it take to finish a piece of art?
Hurrrhurrrhurrr

✖ What music do you listen to while you draw?
Anything and everything from Jazz to Electronica

✖ How long does it take you to come up with an idea?
Not long just as long as I'm not staring at a blank canvas..they tend to scare ideas from my head...and make me want to cry.

✖ Your favorite drawing utensils?
Tablet, Open Canvas, Photoshop, and sometimes Painter X. I really wish I had a scanner...then I would draw the sketch by hand and scan it in..but any more programs and Bertha (my PC) would self-combust.

I love GREEN and BLUE. But I use a lot of red.

Thanks to you guys who answered my poll I'm getting my groove back, and I have a metric TON of new ideas/projects to work on including one scheme that I may ask you guys to help me out with once I finish brainstorming.

But unfortunately it's crunch time now at school, and between academics, MCAT prep, and design class I'll be HELLA busy from until glorious December 19 ((BREAK!!!)) But as soon as that day comes I'll be KAPOW-ing back into art mode.


<div class="dashedbox">Here's what I'm aiming for.
:bulletblue: *Fox7XD's Secret Santa 2009. Tee Hee~
:bulletpurple: Art trade with ~Huoryu!!
:bulletblue: NEW GIFT ART FOR ~an-jing!!!
:bulletpurple: Possible AATR Fanarts?
:bulletblue: JOIN SDL!!!!
:bulletpurple: more OCs! I need to practice!
:bulletblue: Brewing ideas for an uber-collaboration...
</div>

Also, I felt like it was time for a change of journal...Yes it's still the boring pale green, but I think this new one by *psychol-bob is sleek and chic~

I'll play around with this a bit more later so I can get some features up. For now though, I feel the need to show these pics because, well, they fucking rock.

WTF PITTSBURGH?!

Journal Entry: Sat Sep 26, 2009, 11:32 AM
I Love dA!


:iconbuu-dai--chan:
B u n m i
Journal.gif[ J o u r n a l ]

EDIT: This is a pretty decent picture of how we were treated [link]
"Some guilty, all guilty" it seems.

FUCK THE POLICE.
FUCK EM.

They're kids on roids with toys and they don't give a damn about protecting anyone. At least not the idiots that they've loosed upon Pittsburgh. Oakland,the area of Pittsburgh where my school is,was an absolute mess last night because of the G-20 summit. It was great during the day; most classes were canceled, President Obama, the First Lady, and many many dignitaries were in town, and history is being made as the day went on.

But I really think it was a HUGE mistake to host yesterday's events in Oakland. The University of Pittsburgh is a huge school with around 20,000 students, and of course when you bring in all measures of swat teams, army men, and every type of rinky dink $20 class police man in the fuckin' state there's bound to be problems.

I admire the kids who joined peaceful protests and demonstrated without causing any problems; they were exercising their constitutional right to protest. But of course there were those dumb kids who thought it would be a good idea to taunt the police...sooo not. They ruined it for all of us, especially the curious innocent.

SO why are you so mad, Buu?

Why, you ask?

Well I was a curious innocent, and I got utterly shafted. Around 12:30 last night I was sitting in my room at home in my apartment when I got a few consecutive calls from a friend who lives in the heart of campus. Apparently kids in the quad were getting rowdy and stupid all the police got fed up and tear gassed the crap out of the area, arresting several. I chalked it up to college kids being college kids, but I no idea just how horrific the events taking place actually were. A few minutes later my roommate, and a bunch of our guy friends came bursting in the door all excited. "GET DRESSED!! YOU GOTTA COME OUT AND FUCKING SEE THIS!!" I was about to call it a night, but I was dying to see what was happening so I got dressed and ran out with them.

BAD CALL.

When we got to Forbes Ave, the heart of main campus, it was a sea of police and SWAT. I saw kids getting arrested and being held by 2-3 cops, and curious kids were up on the balconies of their apartments looking out on the chaos. Down the street, where the quad was, was impossible to get to, and we only got a few steps down the street before the group of us got approached by cops in full gear. They told us to leave, which was fine because the scene was scary as hell, but our guy friends lived waaay down past the road blocks and all the mayhem. As we turned to leave, one of my guy friends tried to explain that he was trying to get home on the other side of the blockade.

Somehow this was interpreted as a threat.

One particularly angry cop screamed in his face "YOU THINK I GIVE A FUCK?!" and slammed his head into the side of the storefront we were walking next to. If I hadn't been standing just a few feet behind him, I would never have believed it. Then he turned on me getting really close to my face, daring me to say something. How could I? I half expected him to hit me next. I was scared shitless. But it wasn't over after that, a bunch more police approached us armed with pellet guns, and some canisters I couldn't recognize: Pepper spray. They shot our entire group and a group of kids behind us a point blank with it, and not just as a warning...they gave us a fuckin' bath. And as we were staggering blindly back down the street I couldn't think of a single reason why. We were unarmed, we listened to what they said... hell, half of us had our hands up. It was a disgusting show of force that I would never ever have imagined would happen and would never wish on anyone.

I never liked police, and I never had any real reason except the stories that I'd heard from friends and on the news.Until now.
It took hours for the burn to wear off our skin, and nearly 12 hours later, I can still feel the burning in my stomach.
