Now that I have your attention lets begin this silly journal xD

Lately I've been slightly worried I might not be able to make the 50000 word thing for my Nano -_- Mainly because I've been busy with other things plus I can't be focused for long enough -_-

None the less I'll try to release some form of Iconoclasm soon maybe after thanksgiving break.

Also speaking of stalkers...I decided to make a top 8 list of the worst stalkers in anime history...in other words people you DON'T want stalking you...again this list isn't official in anyway and are merely my opinions....so lets begin...also why top 8? In Asian culture 8 is considered a lucky number and you'll need all the luck you can get to avoid these guys... Also SPOILERS ARE AHEAD (Skip this section though if you want to see something else)

#8: L from Deathnote
Reason: Now I think L is the most awesome character in Death Note but as a stalker he is kinda creepy...reasons? When he installed security cameras in the Yagami house hold he installed one in each room...except for Light's room which has a bloody 60+ cameras in Light's room. Seesh if it weren't for the fact that he is epically awesome I would put him higher on the list...

#7: Gokudera from Katekyo Hitman Reborn!
Reason: Well...more like undying loyalty to Tsuna...ah screw it...there is no way around it! His 'loyalty' really goes to ridiculous extremes! Again this is a character I like though...why is he higher on the list than L? Well for Tsuna it must be a creepy factor that his loyalty and his dedication to follow him everywhere leads to him using the dynamite he hides all over his clothing to blow up anyone who slightly looks at Tsuna the wrong way...

#6: Shion from Higurashi
Reason: Lets ignore for a moment that she has a taser and that if she doesn't have her trusty tazer she always has a nail and hammer for back up. She is creepy, her laugh is just like her twin sisters and the fact that she is willing to switch places with said sister to be closer to a boy she liked. Plus if her murder methods and laughs aren't creepy then I don't know what is...and whats worse...they are people on the list worse than her in the stalker department.

#5: Belarus from Hetalia
Reason: She has GOT to be on ANY stalker list because she is the only person in the Hetalia cast that can effectively scare the shit out of Russia and note that Russia himself is already a damn scary person. Though her worst act of stalker ship is the fact that she obliterated a door knob simply because it got in the way of her goal of marrying Russia. Damn if that was a person, that person would need to pay a serious hospital fee...or in the worst case scnario get a free ticket to hell.

#3: Yubel from Yugioh GX
Reason: Wait a minute...why is a villian form a show about children's cardgames in this list? Well allow me to tell you...cause she/he IS ****IN CREEPY! Allow me to sum up the crimes. She absorbed the mental energy, possessed a freshman, sent the school to another dimension, possessed the main character Judai's (aka victem)close friend Johan, killed countless people all because he wants to LOVE Judai...*shudder* DAMN SOMEONE GET A ****IN RESTRAINING ORDER!


#3: Mao from Code Geass
Reason: HOLY SHIT!! Ok granted he actually has proper reasons to be a stalker. C.C. was the only person he could really relate to thanks to the abilities of his geass...but when you want to use a chain saw to slice your love stuff her in a box and bring her with you to Australia, all while smiling, you really need to see therapy. What prevents him from being higher is how pathetically he dies...

#2: Matoi from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Reason: How can she be this high when she barely poses any deadly threat to the stalker victem in question...well the answer is...how good at the non leathal type of stalking she is. Allow me to summarize how good she is. She managed to collect a wall full of pictures of her stalker victem, his straws, objects, strands of hair...and more ALL IN ONE DAY OF FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE PERSON! DAMN THAT'S SCAREY AS HELL!! Not to mention she'll do almost anything to get into the poor victims pants...What prevents her from being higher...is that there is someone worse in a far more scarier way...

#1: Gauron from Full Metal Panic
Reason: DAMN, normally terroists have a motive or reason...this guy has none. He really is just blood shit insane! Who does he stalk? The main character Sosuke. The fact that he gained 'interest' in him when he was only 12 years old only serves to distrub me. What really gets him to be number one on this list is how many times he supposedly died only to go out of his way because of his 'facination' with Sosuke...brr...plus it's implied he wanted to rape Sosuke's dead body after he kills him in the novels...*SHUDDDER* that's ****in wrong man! He is also on this list because it took them an entire season just to confirm his dead (First time got shot in the head second time he blew up third time where he actually died blew himself up (in fact his cockroach like percistance becomes a RUNNING GAG!!))

Now that I'm done ranting about my top 8 worst stalkers in anime history allow me to tell you the people that should've been on the list...Break. Sad that I didn't have room for him but he is a guy you want to get stalked by so it sort of defys the meaning of the list...also...

From :Quilofire:

1. How long have you been drawing, and what inspired you to do so?

I've been drawing since about 3rd to 4th grade. (one would think that I'd be a master at this by now...)What inspired me was video games and anime (yes I liked them even back then) mainly because I was interested in their character design and because it's not something mainly found around America so I took interest.

2. When you first began drawing, what was your style and subject matter?

Well...it was horrible...I will only mention my middle school drawing style. Back then I could draw humans so I decided to draw anthropomorphs as quote on quote pratcie (Mainly hedgehogs since I'm a fan of the Sonic the Hedgehog games (If your going to bug me about it yes I like both 2D and 3D)) So a majority of my friends in Middle School know what I drawn from that. (Though they look more like cats than hedgehogs now that I look at it_

3. Did anything in particular drastically change your art style from then to now?

Well the fact that I can draw people and the fact that I can add more detail to my artwork now. Plus the fact that the way I drew eyes changed alot now that I have more subtle touches when I'm holding a pencil. Alot has changed since then and in all honesty none of my work in deviant in my opinion is incredible compared to my middle school stuff.

4. How did you learn how to draw?

No drawing guides that's for sure...All I really did was experimented what worked with me and took a look at a few anime art books (perfably the Disgaea and Persona ones since I love their art style to no end) (Ok I know they're games...) so I guess I just experimented with things till they worked with me is how I draw.

5. What embarrasses you the most about your old artwork?

Well...how lack of detail it is. Sure the base is good but with little shading and other slight details it feels a little empty a lot of times.

7. What makes your old artwork endearing?

Well more like the comics born from it. I honestly considered making remakes of my comics and posting them here with story now better and the characters better drawn in all honesty. I honestly still read some of the comics I drew in middle school but that might be simply nostalgia.

8. How would you describe your art style now?

Well not a particular artist I can say. While it is anime esque it's not exactly similar to any proffesional, might be because I experiment with alot though.

9. Is it mostly fanart or original artwork now?

50 50 if you ask me. A majority of my stuff is simply stuff that's inspired by some artists but never directly fan work of their well work

10. What's your favorite medium/program to work with?

Color penicls, regular pencils, ETC. I don't have photoshop for now and even then I can't use it to it's full potential.

11. How do you usually sign your artwork? Do you use watermarks?

I don't really sign my art work xD

12. How often does a sketch become a completed piece of art?

Well alot...some of my sketches end up being actual drawings through ideas and such...

13. How often do you complete a piece of artwork?

Surprising not a lot gets complete. Well not at the rate I want.
14. How long does it take to complete a piece of art?

About 8+ hours. One drawing spanned to about 4 months to complete.

15. How much of your total art output in the last year has been (a)for class

A lot considering last year was digital art, I also drew from some of my other classes last year.

16. How do you deal with art thieves, if you've ever had one?

I'll either ask politely, or report them, or both. Never had a theif before, to my knowledge.

17. How much do you see your art style/ability changing in the next five to ten years?

I'm not sure how to answer that...all I can say is experiment and keep on experimenting, even when I'm satified, I'll continue to experiment with my drawing.

18. What is your favorite deviation?

I like all of them in a way. My best are Daddy Issues the Sequel, Radiance, and all of Churai's crayon chronicles.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
1. Radiance and Churai's Crayon Chronicles will be postponed (sorry about this xD)
2. The Iconclasm cover I'm still thinking about what to put on there...
3. Might start posting pictures of the characters within the story.
4. Persona 3 and 4 fan art maybe
