~Mirage-Leopard

Umm... Okay, here's the deal:

1. I've been playing on Furcadia a lot lately.

2. My artwork has gotten a bit slower due to the fact that I had been having art blocks in the past few weeks. x_x (I might be uploading my new pictures onto here soon.)

3. I keep forgetting to come back to this site.

Random Preacher: Excuses, excuses, Mirage. D:< When are you ever going to learn that no one really cares?

Me: Uhh...

O....kay, anyways! My aunt hasn't given me her little PayPal account yet, so I won't have the ability to do commissions yet (unless if you're willing to mail me the money. o.O; ). Here're the things that I can pretty much draw for you :3 :

::~* {Characters} *~::

*Chibi............................ $2.00/chara.
Line-art.......................... $2.00/chara. (Kinda like this! Only darker. o.o)
Shaded
(Black+White)............ $3.50/chara. (Maybe something like this?)
(Complex).................. $4.00/chara. (??)
Coloring
*(Flat, as in no shade)... $4.00/chara.
(Cell-shade)................ $5.50/chara. (Something like this)
(Complex).................. $6.00/chara. (Like this?)

_{*~ I've never done that before}

..::~ “Backgrounds” ~::..

Simple.......................Total Cost + $2 (Like this?)
Medium detail.............Total Cost + $4 (Like this or maybe this!)
Highly Detailed...........Total Cost + $6 (kinda like the background in this one.)

<(--(Tribal Designs)--)>

Nametag or Words........ $1 (^w^)
Moderate Detail............ $3 (rawk!)
High Detail................... $5 (^w^ <3)
I can do Furcadia portraits for you too! ;3

===\__*Portraits*__/====
Lineart....................... $2
(For your own coloring pleasure :3)
Non-remappable......... $5
(Non-changeable colors)
Remappable...............$7-10 (depending on detail) (See? See?)
(Changeable)
Backgrounds
Simple................. Total + $1
(Default Backgrounds defining your gender)
Medium............... Total + $1.50
Highly detailed..... Total + $3

Those are basically the things that I can draw for you! I'll try to update this list whenever I think of anything else. Now here're some things that you might want to know:

1. No nudity! D:<

2. The highly detailed pieces might require a lot of time in order to finish. So be patient. Pweeze!

3. As soon as I get PayPal, this'll be a whole lot easier. x_x By then, you can just pay me, and I can give picture!

4. I can't think of anything else at the moment. x_x *is having random brain farts*

Well... since I can't really think of anything else to say, I might as well just upload some pictures and answer your messages.

Oh!! By the way.... since I was really late in coming back onto Deviantart, I missed the kiriban thingy by way too much. o-O;; So if no one caught the one I had before, then I'm going to set it at around 12,000 pageviews. Maybe more than that.... We'll see!

This whole entire week is about exams, exams, EXAMS!!! Which is one of the reasons that I haven't been super active on Deviantart... besides the fact that I've been on Furcadia more often as well. >.>; Well, it's almost over anyway: the last day is tomorrow. :} Wish me luck on the exams!! _{Wait... by the time you actually read this, I'll probably be finished with it already.} Well, wish me luck anyway! ^w^

I've also been doing a little bit of coloring on MS Paint and Photoshop too in my free time, so I might flood your message center with deviations. But no worries, 'cause I'll submit some today, and some more tomorrow. I hope you'll like them.

I finally got Guitar Hero 2 for the Xbox 360!! <33 So I've been playing that game for a while too! I'm still practicing a bit for some of the hard songs though, like Jordan, Six, and Freebird () I've been able to beat Six by sheer luck on Expert level, but I still haven't been able to beat Jordan nor Freebird. x_x; I feel so shameful for not being able to complete Freebird... My little cousin helped me a bit on Freebird though, and she was able to finish it since she saved up enough Star Power to save herself from failure. I was so happy when we finally beat Expert level on Career mode, but then my baby brother came along to play the game and he erased the data, so we have to start all over again. -_-; Grrrr.....err..r.....r....... o.O

On a happier note (wait, notes have emotions? ), I'm actually picking up on my story again. ^.^ I started the story a 1 1/2 years ago, and I just started to pick it up again. Gosh, I'm such a procrastinator. lol I was also thinking of turning it into a little manga thingy too, so you might want to watch out for that when I finally remember to scan it into the computer. >.>; I don't know if I'll submit it on to here anyway, since it's not in its completed state either. Argh... >.< Needs to work on the manga version a bit more.

As for the commissions that I was talking about before, those are probably going to have to stay on a halt for now. x_x; My parents nor uncle still haven't given their PayPal accounts to me, and I don't have my own credit card either, so I won't be able to create one anytime soon. >.<; Argh.

Yeah, I guess that's all of the news I can think of for now. o.O Ta ta, peoplez!

Mirage is typing this at 3:46a.m. Her mood is not "hungry," it's just that the stupid little mood-thingy wouldn't work for her.

Drats.. Spring Break is coming to a close for me. T__T Oh noez!!! D: I wish it was a bit longer, so that I can actually sleep more hours, but I guess that's not going to be happening anytime soon for the next month-and-a-half.
_{Wait.. the weekends are free for me...
>_>
<_<}
Usually I get about 3-5 hours of sleep each school night since my parents don't really come home until around 11pm and I wake up around 4:30am-5am. And somehow I still have the ability to go hyperlicious and keep up with school. o___o; I take a loooooong time in the bathroom preparing for the day. Sheesh I'm so slow when it comes to getting ready for school. x__x; I wish I had the ability to slow down time so that I could actually sleep for hours in my own world while it's only been several minutes in reality. *is deluding herself*


On the other side note, I have a little question for you guys if you're actually reading this journal:

1. What would you guys do if I started doing commissions?
2. Would you actually buy my artwork?
3. Do you really like my artwork that much?
4. Are you willing to wait for a while if I become bombarded with other works?
5. If you do want to buy from me, do I just upload the picture onto here and you can do whatever you want with it?
6. If you really are going to buy from me, do you think my prices are reasonable? _{see below to see the prices}

Umm.... Sorry, that was too many but I was just curious!! D: *gets killed by curiosity* pffft... Darn cliche expression.

Ya see, I'm not entirely sure if I'm confident enough in my artwork that I actually want to start doing commissions yet. I'm not really sure how to do one either, since this is my first time doing this sort of thing. In order to handle the money digitally, my uncle has a PayPal account and I think he's willing to help me. >__> (I couldn't really tell, since he tends to joke around a lot and isn't too trustworthy ) I don't know what I'm going to do if the person paying isn't able to pay digitally. Plus I'm a bit worried about the timing I'll need in order to finish [insert artwork name here] for [insert person's name]. As most of you may know already, I'm very slow in my artwork unless if I actually have time to do it and if I'm in the mood. I hope that whoever actually buys from me is willing to wait for a while if time's not on my side.

What I'm hoping is that I'll be able to actually make a living doing the thing that I love most; art. ^_^ I'm not able to get out of my house much, since my parents don't have the time from their workplace and since I can't drive yet. -__-; I want to be able to actually help my parents while I'm at my house watching over my baby brother, and this is pretty much all I can think of so far.

And now for the prcies for teh commishies *misspelled those on purpose since she's a bit tired*

::~* {Characters} *~::

Line-art.......... $4.00 (each character)
Shading.......... $5.00 (each character)
Coloring......... $6.00 (each character)

..::~ “Backgrounds” ~::..

Line-art.......... Total cost + $3.50
Shading......... Total cost + $4.50
Coloring......... Total cost + $5.00

Are those prices okay with you guys?

There are also some conditions for the commissions too, but I'll type those up later. x__x **falls asleep on the floor** zzzzzZzZZZZzz Mmm... peaches.... Peaches are so fuzzy!! I luffs them!!! zzzZZZzzz....

*needs help*

Mirage has ended this journal entry at 4:41am...... Like anyone cares actually.

I am healthy. I'm not really thin. I'm not really fat either. I'm not ripped. I'm just......... mreow. o.o

5. How much do you weigh?
Hmmm... I think I weigh about 125lbs right now. But most of my weight comes from my bones (my parents tell me than I'm a tall Asian person, but I'm only 5' 6" ... I think. )

13. Are you sociable?
I'm a little sociable. I'm really hyper and crazy when I'm around my friends, but whenever I'm around people I don't know I tend to keep to myself most of the time.

14. Do you have many friends?
I have a lot of friends actually, and I can't really keep track of them all! XD It's a bit ironic for me though, because I didn't have that many friends at all during my early years. It wasn't until a year ago that I actually made a bunch of friends. x3

15. What's your race?
I am a bit of American, a pinch of Vietnamese, a sprinkle of Chinese, and possibly a teeny-bit of Hispanic. ^.^ So I'm Hismerinese.

Yesh! x3 There's always meat in my diet, even when I don't really know it.

I read manga. ^.^ Does that count?

21. Do you listen to music, what kind?
Yesh! I listen to Pop, Rock, some Alternative, and J-Pop. x3

22. Do you play any instruments?
I used to play the piano and a little bit of the guitar... but I stopped playing the piano and I sucked with the guitar. xD

I remembered that I was drawing ever since before I went to school! (probably around 4 or 5)

24. What's the meaning of life?
Drawing!

25. Now tag five of your friends! They MUST take this quiz and post it in their journal

Alrighty!!
1) Casabolg
2) Revelation009
3) Koukyo
4) Sapphiregrl
5) CharmedBelle

Where is everyone? I know that everyone has their own lives to take care of, and everyone probably has better fish to fry around here, but would it kill you to talk to me every once in a while? I remember I used to have so much fun being on Deviantart, but now it's getting really lonely since no one talks to me anymore. Everyone loves to ignore me around here... and I'm not even sure what I did wrong. ¬_¬ I'm sorry that I'm not commenting your fantastic pictures and I'm sorry that I haven't been updating my gallery that much either. I'll try to work on my artwork as fast as I can, but I'm really slow when it comes to coloring. X.x; If you guys know a way to accelerate coloring, then it would be amazing.

Okay, sorry about the ranting. I really miss you guys.
