Well the thing is rather silly... I found one project that I had worked on few years ago... and I reallyl like the backgrounds I had done there and got the inspiration to finish it! Redraw the characters and fix a bit of the background. But sadly I have only png file of beautiful background and ugly sketches on top... and a sai file... but for a year now I have no acess to sai... so I am coming to you all! would anyone be okay of me sending you the project file and you exporting it as psd and sending it back to me?

2017 Reflection and 2018 Goals!
5 min read
I should be working on my finals... so this is a perfect time to do 2017 reflection as I got tagged by winepire ! Send help...
I actually started doing one beforehand.. but then I noticed the tag... and it looked like it was organized way better! so yeah!
I actually started doing one beforehand.. but then I noticed the tag... and it looked like it was organized way better! so yeah!
Things accomplished:
Well digital artvise... I don't see much improvement... I got myself a new laptop and a new tablet. and to make these work... I lost Paint tool Sai. It refused to work on my new laptop... and my new tablet refused to work on my old desktop. So I now have switched to photoshop. Can't say that I have managed to get used to it yet. And it's already a year. I just haven't had as much time to practice. Also have lost the interest in the semi realistic anime look I was going for all these years. Now I want to practice more cartoony looks I guess. But there still are few accomplishments!
This was my first vector illustration that I loved!
- Experimenting with styles
- Learning illustrator
- Animations in aftereffects!
I was so proud when I made this on 2015...
and I still think it's pretty cool... but my understanding of aftereffects was nonexistant...
Here is my latest animation
It isn't perfect either... the loop of the walk cycle isn't perfect, but the deadline was too soon to go trought the rendering again, to fix it... But look! It seems much more natural... at least in my opinion....
- Gone outside my comfort zone with character creation
Humans are fun... but easy... Understanding how this creature would move... this is the real challange! And I like to challange myself more!
- Made projections on a charity concert
This thing was so cool! you guys have no idea! It looked so pretty as well! Even though I know that my animations werent perfect.... I got on tv! And while doing so, had to go to the capital city on my own! And I didn't get lost! So I was super proud of myself then!
- Did an inktober on instagram
Things learned:
- Perfect the things
While it is true that "Finished not perfect" is a good idea... but I took it too literally... and hated all of my works... Now I am perfecting the thing as best as I can. So now... I do improve and do look back at all the things that look like crap... things that I would do differently but the overall image still looks good! Because I made it as good as possible...at the time... and not half ass it!
I used to doodle ugly sketches that I would redraw on top and redraw again till it looks okay... But that is super time consuming! While doing the horrid rotoscopy project... I learned to draw the animation neatly from the beginning! Othervise... if I do the drawings sloppily... I will have to remake them anyways... So... Why be lazy to get more work? Better to be productive and in the end have less work! The true laziness!- Do good the first try
- TALK and SHOW progress
Goals for 2018:
- Do a traditional painting a month on my new easel~
- FINISH THE DARN BLACKBIRD thing I have been working on and off for half a year now...
- Learn more about 3D modeling and riging and ANIMATING
- Do few character rigs and animations in aftereffects

music meme
7 min read
I walked trough my sta.sh and found this meme template just laying around! sooooo... why not spend few minutes or an hour, or two of my already busy schedule filling silly questionaire instead of working?
1: A song you like with a color in the title
Coldplay "Yellow"
The lyrics were just so nice to make a lyrics video to it! Not too lovely dovely cheese on top of Boboli. And while working on that.. I kinda fell fo the song!
2: A song you like with a number in the title
Greg John "1044"
I couldn't think of any other song with number! I know an album with number, but surprisingly not song! So sharing my friend's song I guess! It is nice, but I have listened to it way too much to still like! Check him out though! Go to spotify. He recently got vertified and is so happy about it!
3: A song that reminds you of summertime

Any song from Dons... like "Pa ceļam" or "tepat"

Ed Sheeran "Galway girl"
Actually most of ÷ songs

Ahh the edgy punkish Avril... still from time to time I look int her old songs

All the characters tag
7 min read
i didn't get tagged, but I saw this and thought it was amazing!
- PERSONA: Your character that represents you.
I actually enjoy doodling myself quite a lot, but with that said I draw myself, how I look at the drawing time, not a persona...
- GUARDIAN ANGEL: You protect yourself through them, vent through them etc, they keep you strong.
Loads of rp characters have at least one of my qualities and I do feel that I go trough them a lot! (Not to mention the fact thaat I have managed to meet people in real life that reminds me so much of my babbies!)
But the one that has kept me the strongest - Alisia
![[CPS] RP Tracker: Alisia by Dianamisu](https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/d477fa14-de0f-4db2-af06-bc7fed284d4a/dafyt61-21f2ee62-c175-4773-ac88-80e838ae474a.png/v1/fill/w_1024,h_492/_cps__rp_tracker__alisia_by_dianamisu_dafyt61-fullview.png?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9NDkyIiwicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvZDQ3N2ZhMTQtZGUwZi00ZGIyLWFmMDYtYmM3ZmVkMjg0ZDRhXC9kYWZ5dDYxLTIxZjJlZTYyLWMxNzUtNDc3My1hYzg4LTgwZTgzOGFlNDc0YS5wbmciLCJ3aWR0aCI6Ijw9MTAyNCJ9XV0sImF1ZCI6WyJ1cm46c2VydmljZTppbWFnZS5vcGVyYXRpb25zIl19.nmY1Kw0TxcDVuW9mdewh9Rd6REGnj18oc82j6boX0RE "[CPS] RP Tracker: Alisia by Dianamisu")
- SUNSHINE: A character that never fails to make you smile. Maybe they have bright colours or maybe they're very cute. A character who is your own personal sun.
- THE RARE ONE: How about a character you're so surprised you actually managed to get? You probably won't be letting go of them anytime soon!
- THE FANDOM CHARACTER: You heard me! Everyone's got one, fork them over!
For me this actually is a harder category...
Technically Roze firstly was made to be RWBY character, but that changed super quickly... And to who he is now... there's almost nothing left from RWBY...
- THE NEWBIES: Okay who just joined your family of characters? Let's see them!
Oh wow... this is also hard? I haven't made new character for a while! That feels new! I used to make so many!
I guess Wolf princess is the most recent...
But tags are no fun if nobody gets tagged, so I shall be evil!

- PERSONA: Your character that represents you.
I actually enjoy doodling myself quite a lot, but with that said I draw myself, how I look at the drawing time, not a persona...
With that being said... I used to have a persona though! My dear Sua
But her look is really outdated and looks far from me... Mostly because of my hair changes in the past year...
Loads of rp characters have at least one of my qualities and I do feel that I go trough them a lot! (Not to mention the fact thaat I have managed to meet people in real life that reminds me so much of my babbies!)
But the one that has kept me the strongest - Alisia
I don't know if it's weird or not, but she has grown so much and overcame her syness and other problems. I did give her quite a few bad qualities that I have as well, but she managed to live with them! Actually with cps experience I learned that it's ok if people around me doesn't like me. There always will be the weirdos who will!
- SUNSHINE: A character that never fails to make you smile. Maybe they have bright colours or maybe they're very cute. A character who is your own personal sun.
My sun and the moon! when the twins are included it will be sweet and shiny!
- SENTIMENTAL VALUE: Okay, now who has the most sentimental value? Maybe a character you received from a friend, or who you have fond memories of. Perhaps they're very old?
I'd have to say these three! They have been with me since the beginning! Leo - the first rp character that I actually roleplayed... And soon he got a brother and his friend. So Leo, Lucious and Zack will always be really close to my heart! Especially since thanks to them I befriended one of the most amazing person!
- THE FANCY ONE: Your flashiest character! Probably the prettiest one or the one with the most fancy design.

- THE FANCY ONE: Your flashiest character! Probably the prettiest one or the one with the most fancy design.
Prettiest? Ooooooh no! If you would have seen my struggle of making his face not pretty! Not ugly, but not perfect pretty boy! He is fancy because he doesn't have the looks! But he has big dreams. And looks doesn't stop him. Although his clothing choices usually are rather fancy...
- THE RARE ONE: How about a character you're so surprised you actually managed to get? You probably won't be letting go of them anytime soon!
Roze is pretty big weirdo! Ok many of my characters aren't "normall" but he is special. The first character with what I played with gender neutrality. ALthough I always knew he was a boy, the clothes, personality and looks managed to confuse people.
- THE FANDOM CHARACTER: You heard me! Everyone's got one, fork them over!
For me this actually is a harder category...
Also, the rp group where I started with Sasha was a fandom group, but I don't really remember fandom of what... As I didn't really pay too much attention that it wasn't original idea, but based on series... Also I didn't even check the series actually.... But soon after the end of the group Sasha was rewamped and not a doll anymore, so not sure if that counts either....
OH Elizabeth!
OH Elizabeth!
A SLytherin! True fandom character! She was made to be used in a Hogwards group!
- THE NEWBIES: Okay who just joined your family of characters? Let's see them!
Oh wow... this is also hard? I haven't made new character for a while! That feels new! I used to make so many!
I guess Wolf princess is the most recent...
And her story is still rather undeveloped... so is her personality... I only have her look actually... And the concept idea...
But tags are no fun if nobody gets tagged, so I shall be evil!

Offering cheap Character animations
2 min read
Offering to create cheap character animations.
Why are they cheap? Because I am just a student and in need of practicing this particular type of animation. But I am also in need of money.
If you are not interested, maybe could give me a little shoutout?
You can see the animation examples in action here: mikanova.wixsite.com/diana-mik…
Can work with "cartooning" real people or your original characters! Right now my examples are from real people only.
-->
-->
price will depend on the character and animation.
The range - around 20 - 30 $ or 2 000 - 3 000 DA points
If the character is super complex it will either be simplified or the price will rise
And remember this is an animation. Your character will not only recieve an illustration, but also the life with a little movement!
