Hey there, I'm alive.

Why yes, I do love updating at 3:30 in the morning when I have to work at 11:00. Gooooood times. Also, long time no see, art blog!

Here, have some fan Digimon for my fanstory, "Digimon: Chrono Crisis". From top: Auramon, Jetelmon, Paniamon.

Moar Digimon, y/y?

Get ready, because here comes some more profiles for my fanstory, Digimon: Chrono Crisis.

Left to right: Kayla, Gordon, & Luna

So I am making some headway on this project - mostly in getting the profiles and such drawn up and working out details. Once the profiles are all completed, I'll settle in to finally write the sucker. Hopefully that'll go a bit more smoothly this time.

Then the website. Blah, I'm so rusty with HTML. XD

I did make a logo for this fanstory though!

Not as good as other Digimon fanstory logos that people have done, but then again I didn't incorperate any part of the original logo graphic from the show. I like it well enough but I still kind of have my doubts, y'know? Anyway, what do you guys think? Any tips to make it look better?

Random smatterings are funtimes, yesyes?

A couple of these are old (as in half a year + old) but bear with me. :3

Another project of mine is a webcomic called "Gun Dog Waltz". Basically it's about a brother and sister who are dead set on making themselves big names in the bounty hunter world of the late 1800s. Random shenanigans, an underlying plot, and lots of fun characters will be found in this. Shasta and Nate have seen a carry over from Digimon (where they originally came from, as Digimon fancharacters - see previous post for more), buuuuut the western theme just seems to work well with them. So here y'go.

Shasta is a shameless drunk. This would be her first encounter with the new piano player at the local tavern.

This is why Nate is the only one allowed to make the plans.

Here's Nate probably observing that. Poor guy always has to deal with so much when it comes to his sister dear.

I dunno, Shasta works those daredevil looks rather well.

And nooooow, something more recent (and different from my norm): Street Fighter fanart! Please forgive random little inaccuracies (I already had to fix Chun Li up a lot in Photoshop)! This was also a first for me.. never drawn these two, but I love them~

Wondering if I should do more with them but I dunno.

Digimon, anyone?

So I have this ~~stupid~~ little fanstory called "Digimon: Chrono Crisis". After opening it a couple years ago, I got annoyed with the story so far (all.. one chapters of it) and put the site and story on hiatus. I'm currently working on the revamp of that, character profiles, layout, story, and all. It's a slow process but I'm piecing it together, bit by bit.

First part being re-worked are the character profiles! You guys are the first to see these here, since I'm waiting until I finish them all (Rookie Digimon and human partners both) before posting anywhere else.

Left to right: Shasta, Nate, Lola, Icymerimon, & Hannah

I just finished Hannah up a few minutes ago and wanted to post them. I have all the humans sketched out, so I just need to ink and color them. The Digimon have undergone some renovations as well (like.. completely, in some cases) so look forward to those!

I'm really tempted to draw some "Lord of the Rings" stuff too because I just finished the books and feel so empty after finishing. They were so goooooood. > A <

Welcome~

Gosh, I've been terrible about this blog! Oh well, deleting my few entries and going at a new layout while I'm here (stupid premade layouts give me a headache @ A @ sucks that i'm so fail at coding nowadays!). Anyway, welcome one and all to my (newly renovated) sketch blog, Bolero D'Arte! There will be much more in the days to come, including project updates, random doodles, and weird stories that may inspire said random doodles. You never know with me.

I figure the best way to kick off is sharing my playlist of random music (mostly game music and disco, along with obscure Japanese and Korean pop). The kind of stuff that gives me that get up and go for working!

And to actually put some art in this, a doodle I did a few days ago!

I love Final Fantasy 6, and Terra has to be one of my favorite of the bunch. Probably one of my favorite FF characters of all time. I love her personality, her development, and her design. <3 So creative.
