Small heads up: my pc went down! I can work on an old laptop (which by some miracle can run Paint Tool SAI even with 500MB RAM lol), but I work slower. Maybe because of smaller resolution? Anyways, here's some Madoka fanart! Still don't know why Picassa has been making my pictures darker than they really are, but here's my tumblr post:  original colors Still unsure if it's not too bright, this monitor fools me at times @_@

Recently bought this lovely game called Unholy Heights This is the highest tier of the cheepy race and I fell in love with it XD Cheepies loves the nature~ *edit* I just noticed this was the blog's 100th post! yaaaay \o/

Bunta got a new haircut! (previous:

Just a small update to keep up with what I'm doing :> My friend Anne drew the lines, and I'm colouring it!

I bought a watercolor mask so I quickly drew some sillyness to test it out *u* some parts went better than others, but I really enjoyed working with that~*~*~* ahhh I missed watercolors

Sayaka Miki, from Madoka

Not alone

Damped in water

In bloom Just a quick sketch! :D I really want to get this one done, but got a couple of projects ahead :3 Felt really good scribbling this one~ Really wanted to get this one in paper so I don't forget about it

Chibi Nagisa Kaworu, from Evangelion :> Birthday gift for a friend :D

A walk, a flower, a perfume.. Those things changes our mood

a friend's character on Maple Story :>

Drawing Maple Story characters is fun :3   First sketch was:

Flat colors  Tadaaaaaaaa

My avatar in Maple Story A bishop! progress shot: annnd alternate horny version LOL I really love the bishop class 8D! Thank you for looking!

This is something I sketched a while ago for my id and it's finally done! 8D My sketch from previous post: And a progress shot: I really enjoyed working on it - also put a lot of effort into :3 My inspiration was my family name (Kawauti) With this, I decided to rename my blog to River skies! I'm feeling this name! 8D Thank you for looking!

Homura-chan I still want to draw other girls from Madoka~ I was experimenting with a softer style of shading (not 100% happy about it) xD I didn't like this character at first, but she won me over towards the end of the series ;_;

Another sketch touch up!  I'm particularly happy with this one! Portraying Aladdin just makes me really happy 8D! Sketch from  this post! He is such an adorable character! ;_; omg I want to read so many things, but there is so little time

Update of my Toad sketch from  here! As I said before, I have been kind of obsessed with mushrooms! XD Toad has always been the character I wanted it to show up more in every game! It was always my choice in Mario kart though I did not like his voice at all.. :P I would really cheer up everytime there was an update in Mario Galaxy story where I could interact with him, hahah I think Mario franchise is brilliant~ I'll always look up to Nintendo for it. This is a thank you image for all the good times I've had with their games 8D

It's a friend's character! :D

With  Curry  and  Alfa  ! :D Magi theme! Ahhh I had a lot of fun with all steps of it!! So glad I found people willing to collaborate with me!  I have posted my sketch the other day,  here It's also such a coincidence we all drew girls 8D I love it

Hi! Just a mini update :D I've been cleaning up a few sketches ~ I'm really happy about it! (old version:) *LINK* I have been working on a switcharound meme these past days, please look forward to it! :D (my sketch part can be seen here:  *Morgiana*  ) Aside from Morgiana, there will be Pisti and Yamuraiha! I'm really excited and can't wait to see everything done~

Just an idea I had, went with the flow XD Sketch of the day :D Started drawing a girl with flowery-like gown. I wanted it to dance like fire. I also wanted to draw chibi because I hadn't latelly :P Warm your soul with beauty~ I love looking at flowers. 

Working in a new ID for deviantart and such :D I was playing around a bit with my family name (which means middle of river) and came up with this! I hope this can be my permanent identification image *u* On another note, got accepted in a charity book project! \o/ So I'll try to come up with something really nice with my character  Pinna , the penguin girl I'm super excited about the project! First time being accepted in something of the sort ;_;  Please look forward to it! Thank you for reading~~

Crossover of Tails from Sonic and Pokemon's Eevee xD Mega Drive was the first console I owed and I only had Sonic to play, hahah. Overtime, my dad bought me sequences of Sonic and I remember I was so happy when they made Tails available to play as main! It was Sonic 3 if I remember well. I loved flying around, it made the game extra fun~ I got pretty far in those games despite being so young. I never cleared any of those as a child, though XD Knuckles got me pretty excited when I first saw him, because he was pink. I thought it was a she, too. I remember being excited for having a female character on Sonic, but nope LOOL. Later found out it was a dude and I didn't really like his gameplay as much because Tails gave you such freedom to explore! I really loved finding hidden rings and stages.. Good ol' mega drive days ;o; I really thank my father for introducing me to this wonderful world! Oh yeah, I gotta admit I thought Sonic 4 was so scary, I could ...

Morgiana sketch for a switcharound meme I'll be working on! 8D Morgiana is such an amazing character! I really like her personality, I get chills when she gets determined! Magi is another case of anime where I like EVERY CHARACTER ;_; I really love this outfit she wears when she goes to Sinbad's kingdom. She looks GORGEOUS dancing and everything! I want to catch up with Magi! 

Sketch of the day is toad 8D! Mario was one of the very first games I've played and it's still a favourite! Like, come on!! I just wanted to pay tribute to a classic game, haha.  It never disappoints! Ahhh the new game for WiiU looks like a lot of fun too! My favourite character from Mario was toad. Okay, his voice sucks lol. But I always loved his appearences! Ahh lots of Mario Galaxy memories xD He is so cute! So I drew Toad with lots of mushrooms surrounding him~ My initial idea was to draw a mushroom farm xD I quite like this, though! It was a lot of fun to draw this~~ I've been on a mushroom hype.  I wanna eat mushrooms, I wanna draw mushrooms

Fairy Tail again because I was so annoyed by the way it looked before T_T I tried colouring fully on SAI that time and yeah... I guess that doesn't really work for me. I'm so used to Photoshop at this point I think :P Sooo I'm going to add a few progress shots here  Base colours~: Then the colouring on SAI  After this point, worked my magic on Photoshop. I very much like the brushes there! SAI was weird because I can never fing a good setting for brushes (unless I'm lining or cellshading). I used mainly marker tool for this, but I was quite unsatisfied with it. I have trouble with the amount of blend it does. I want it to blend, but I also want it to have opacity. So I decided to just touch it up on Photoshop and I like it better now ;o; I'm not even close to being a fan of Fairy Tail and I lost interest half way in this fanart, to be honest. I struggled with it I done this after request of a friend but I REALLY want to do thin...

Journey fanart because THIS GAME IS FREAKING BEAUTIFUL ;_;!! This is a game for PlayStation, and I have not played it but I would love to 8D! I was watching Pewdiepie's gameplay and fell in love with the beautiful arts ahhhhhh I was so inspired by it! So this is today's sketch Official Journey website:  http://thatgamecompany.com/games/journey/

Done for the HOTTEST KOREAN BUM IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD~ Giving him my support! CHEER UP~! Thank you for showing me some of this manga pages and making me laugh so hard XD Toriko! Or my attempt to draw him, hahah. He lost some muscular mass in my style :P TORIKO SO HARDCOREEEE Everyone cheer up!

Listening to "Mushroom hunting" Daily sketch~ GET HIGH ON MUSHROOMS

Lucy and Natsu from Fairy Tail fanart, for a friend

Named it new moon because I decided to redraw the character from this picture: I feel like I need to redesign this character so her clothes don't look so shabby anymore XD Anyway, this is my sketch of the day! Hopefully I'll finish that Fairy Tail fanart soon.. I kinda lost the gas on that one T_T

I had wanted to do a Magi fanart since I started watching it ;_; SO HERE IT IS~ today's sketch Lovely Aladdin.. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!! Seriously though, I love almost every character of that anime/manga! T_T

amg this was supposed to be a sketch but I got carried away so I will be colouring this XD Please look forward to it! *u*

Ahhh birthday gift and sketch of the day combo. Tried finishing something else to post with this but I was too tired @_@ 

Ahhh it looks so weird in the blog preview, hopefully it will look right after you click it 0_<   One more try on pixel art, I strugled a lot at animating.. I need to practice more, setting frame times and such isn't a natural gift of mine ;_;
