A great thank you and a notification to my friends and teachers....

I hate mention this to my friends who go to Steele Canyon High School that I am exchanging schools for this year because it's the best for me and for my education plus, I had a hard time at Steele and I got pressured non - stop, and when I get pressured, I get frustrated and when I get frustrated, I get sensitive and start crying plus steele canyon is full of nothing but teachers who treat me like the boy who cried wolf. I'm exchanging to Grossmont High School and I love that school because it reminds me of my old primary school that I went to for pre-school to 3rd grade in Jamul. Sorry for the bad news to my friends and teachers at Steele Canyon High School. Plus, I'm going to miss my favorite comic teacher who taught me well and I was able to survive Gnomon the school of visual arts, I wish to have say thank you to super awesome Marvel comic artist and multi media class teacher, Mickey Clausen. Thank you soo much and some credit goes to my other teacher, and my favorite Hobbit fan, Geoff Tobias. I will miss everyone but at the same time remember you well. But, now I have also changed my path to be a artist in character design for video games and special effects make up because thanks to Gnomon because my teacher for the summer camp at Gnomon notices that I had a natural knack for sculpting creatures by using that very mold-able clay like eraser that artists use and a paperclip that I found inside my backpack. and I did an amazing job drawing concept art and I did a few Nintendo inspired vehicles.
Check out Gnomon school of visual arts:
 https://www.gnomon.edu/

I'm going to Gnomon after I graduate high school because that is one of the acquirements for me to go to this school.

Update: 
The year is 2021,
I am now a lot older than when I last typed this and some of the teachers as of now are possibly retired. I am now in a school for film and media. I am hoping to achieve my dream of becoming an actor and a cinematographer. You can laugh at me but just be mindful that I am NOT in it for the fame or popularity. I am in it for the new experiences that I might get to enjoy, travel the world, and learn something new. I am well aware that the path that I am choosing to take is not for those who have a faint heart but I am a tough cookie. I can pick myself up if am ever pushed down or fallen and I just learn from my mistakes. But just so you know that who is going to be the one laughing now if you ever see my name in the movie credits?
Have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,
Axel

This is more of an apology that anything else

Let's just say this much as I update this for 2021. NEVER do the same mistakes that I've done back when I was just a naive kid in high school not knowing of things such as re-posting art that doesn't belong to me. For my first two years of high school; I went to the worst school that was meant for rich kids. And they don't give two cents of what you do as long as you are doing what you've been told what to do. So I deeply apologize to all of the artist whom I have re-posted their art without their permission and I hope that you will understand that I had no intention of stealing their work. So I am editing this post and all of my other "much" older posts and possibly deleting a few because of how immature I was at the time. 






The photos that I am leaving on this post specifically are from Bing and a image from one of my favorite anime titles, Gurren Lagann. The anime has two seasons and is a wonderful anime to watch especially if you enjoy giant robots fighting.
Have a wonderful day!

Finals are finally done!!

I finally finished my Finals for my multimedia class with a little help from my sensei (Teacher) because this software is confusing sometimes, very very confusing and there are a lot of steps to this! Very complex for a newbie like me.

3D animation and updates



Working on more 3D animation and doing Finals then waiting for school to end.


Waiting for summer to hit while studying for finals, getting complaints from people on Facebook giving me their crap about an incident that happened at a con and restarted with the person that everyone is telling me to apologize to while I had enough of that shit. So people who are sending me their complaints to me about that incident, cut the crap and shut up, the person forgiven me and said hey let's start over and I said sure but just for safety and hoping to not have another problem like that one, don't put me in your panels and I will make my own. 

Fruits Basket has a remake that was released back in 2019 and more based on the manga than it's older counterpart. I've read the manga and loved it. I have watched both the older version of the anime and it's recent reboot of it. I liked both as equals and I tend to enjoy anime that has a good story with good art.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

With all of the respects that I have deep down in my heart. I respect the fact that Suicide Forest in Japan should be respected. Not to be seen as a place to bother those who have come to end their lives in this ancient forest. But you need to understand that Japan doesn't do much about those who have depression and they believe it's a flaw. Not a mental condition. When someone ends their life by committing suicide; they don't react. I learned this information from some videos and my own research. 
If you know someone or a loved one who is thinking about suicide then please contact National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: (800)-273-8255. They are available 24/7 and there to help.

Here's what I have to do for Finals in Multi Media:
I have to make a chess set but I'm afraid of flunking the test because my software on the computer is not letting me render it.

3D Animation iMac and iPod process

The process for 3D Animation projects for the 3D Animations for my class is hard and it's harder for me because I threw a temper at my mom for not letting me be able to finish one episode of D. Grey Man, when it was already time for me to go to bed, I slammed my right fist hard on my desk, hard enough to hurt myself, since my desk is my mother's father's desk and was made of solid oak. I had accidentally injured my wrist from last night. My wrist is still sore and it makes it harder for me to do my work, I can hardly move my wrist without being able to feel pain. The whole night all I could think was that I hope I didn't break my wrist from blowing my steam and was tossing and turning until I fell asleep, with my mom watching me like a German soldier during the holocaust in a concentration camp. I had my bed lamp off and all but my mom was sound asleep by 9, lemme tell you my mom and i sound like two cats fighting over for territory and their occasional catnip. I had to take care of my wrist on my own when I had to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, carefully placing a band aid on the spot and wrapping the same rubber like material that some band aids have to make them more durable and water resistant. It's hard for me to be typing when I have the bandage on but it's comfortable and it's still hard to write with a pencil without resting my wrist on the spot where I inflicted an injury on in-between to the joints on where they join together on my wrist. But, what other choice do I have either deal with the annoyance of the injury while doing notes or wear a bandage to hide it.  I only have a week and a few days until I'm out of school for the summer and I'm waiting patiently for school to end, hopefully I'll do another blog next week but it depends.

3D Animation is hard! ;^;

Yes, 3D Animation is hard and a royal pain A but it's easier if you're doing it while listening to Green Day albums on the internet when your phone does not want to work with your schools internet. Yeah, so I'm learn how to 3D animation but I'll be going to a summer school for this in L.A. and besides i only got two or three weeks of school until summer vacation hits so, not much time left until school ends. I'm really looking forward for summer break but I really like doing this kind of stuff but I'm looking forward to being to go to Japan and going to Anime Expo 2015 with a friend this summer, just for fun. But, here is some images of the progress so far.

 
 





When school is over I might just use this blog for posting up some of my art and cosplay, like my deviant art, but just of the work soo far on my work progress on my art and costumes.

Video edits

I learned how to edit videos. I'm thinking about getting this software for my laptop so I could edit my YouTube videos especially whenever I go to conventions and be in panels (half of the time I get kicked out or get warnings from the  panel to sit in a corner until I'm settled down and sit back up at the stage) but I mostly do cosplay and such but I learned how edit some videos as for example ( if this computer will be nice and cooperate)
Sports: I choose sand boarding for this one.



And, I did a movie trailer, to me it sorta sucked but its my second time using this software:
Killer Bean movie trailer that I made. ((It sucks to me)).

I post up blogs every Friday or Thursday.

Video Editing it on

Hey-o! Right now I'm learning how to edit videos, which is really fun and easy to do except for the green screen, that part is really hard to do.

There's a glitch in my gif!


More work in progress but my gif does not want to work and decides to be a turkey. So, I can't be able to upload the gif but instead of a photo of my work in progress. And, now I took out the robot because it was glitching the gif. So, I add in a sheep in place of the robot.

I added in Darwin, Gumball, and the balloon character that I can't remember his name at all. Some characters you might recognize from MineCraft.

I did a robot waving unfortunately I don't remember or how to publish the animation so all I could do is wait till next week to post the animated giff of this waving robot. That is all it basically does is just waves hello or good bye. Just give me more time gosh dang it. More blogs, every Friday, each week. So you won't miss a thing on my progress.

Motion in Progress

Some work in progress on my robot for animation, it will be finishes by next Friday. Just be patient and give me some time to finish. Everyone goes has their own pace.
Here some quotes you might might know from a certain anime. So for now get off of my stinking back!((Pardon the french in the quotes)) :

"Listen Simon... Don't forget. Believe in yourself. Not in the you who believes in me. Not the me who believes in you. Believe in the you who believes in yourself. Don't be held back by someone else's bullshit in fake memories.The one path you chose for yourself, is the truth of your universe. "

Funimation: You should be watching.....eehh, gifs.





I learned how to make gifs. Mine is soo dang glitchy, I hate it but i love it but the animation is going to fast. Okay, maybe a little. I will be making more soon but they are a pain in the rear in and time consuming on my spare time but I did need to do something to keep me busy.

Anime is life! Keep calm and be an otaku!

More blogs coming soon, every Friday!

In - N - Out of the way

I decided to do In - N - Out for my restaurant website because I mostly grew up with In - N - Out, it was mostly a tradition that I do with my dad when we're heading home from the beach. Well, keep calm and love In - N - Out!I was planning to do Mario's De La Mesa Mexican restaurant but it was not a good idea and I was thinking about doing Dzankins but In - N - Out stuck out more in my memory so, I did In- N - Out.


 __________________________________________________________________________________



By the way for those who called anime shit. Don't say that at a anime convention out loud with a microphone because you'll get screwed if you do say that. Anime is awesome! Anime is an Otaku's life! Don't mess with Otaku's!  That goes out to the anime haters that are out there in the world!

Tokyo and beyond!

For class I had to create a website based on whatever the city you choose for to website you're trying to create so, I choose Tokyo, Japan but I think my Fireworks software hates me for some reason or some cocky student decided to mess with the software so i can have a pain in the butt time working on my project. What a week it's been but also schools getting harder and the boys are getting twitterpated, good grief! Men are annoying to me because I'm a girl getting flirted upon and I'm a rebel when it comes to love. So on and so on but I chose Japan because I like their culture and I find the country quite fascinating and some of my teachers get annoyed with me. "Japan! It's always Japan!" they always say when they see an essay or a typed topic about Japan. But seriously the country, Japan is very interesting and their culture is amazing and sophisticated, a tad bit strict but it's fine.

Although the sentences in the paragraphs are running a bit long but get used to it, I write stories and books that are the romance genre type and I hate confirming about it but I'm taking a somewhat long break writing books but still writing a lot of fan-fiction with my friends (Or known as role play  stories) but mostly of them are rated for audiences of the age of 18 and older because of the sequences that may not be suitable for younger teenaged audiences. Any who can't wait till spring break hits, yahoo! Free for two weeks without doing any homework and watching anime till the crack of dawn, Hetalia mostly because that anime deserves an award but I do wish that they included the other nations like mister adorable, sheep loving New Zealand, Ireland and other countries like them. I mean seriously New Zealand is sorta like the mature version of N. Italy but acts similar to him. Baaaa! Sorry, anime is all I talk about half of the time but Hetalia should be approved by schools because it has history of the different countries and half of the time centers around WWI and WWII.
But, I'm ready for break and want to be free but also I want to sleep in and dream of Hetalia then goof off and go to Anime Conji! I'll see you later after I come back from two weeks of Spring Break!
I wish to go to New Zealand! ; ^ ;

Another tough week for this stuff and getting sick...again

I hate it when people give their crap and giving me a hard time every time I tell them to please stop while working on my project in my Multi media class because they think it's a riot when I get pissed off and I have to play anime openings on full volume to ignore the annoying idiots. I just wish my teacher can separate them and move them into different seats, I don't really give a damn if they're give me their BS when they've been caught because it's their damn fault for harassing and annoying me because I get offended and annoyed very easily. I was busy working on this:
  When they started messing with me, but I'm trying my best to ignore them when I had a really tough weekend and couldn't sleep for 3 hours because my stupid stomach flu came back (the last time I had it was back during Christmas break). Some people think that I'm pretty stupid when I'm actually a pretty smart and intelligent when it comes to getting to know me. So don't piss me off unless you want to get on my bad side, that's why I preferred back when I was in preschool to be left alone and be treated like the cat of the zodiac, which the cat is excluded in the Chinese zodiac, I was mainly the cat until my second year in high school, and was like the rat.


 More blogs on Friday.

Creating Websites Can Be Tough

This week in my class I learned how to make buttons for websites, it's not easy when think it's easy. And, I had a really rough week of being harassed and teased, almost getting a concision from the corridors at my school leaving a scrape on head near the hair line of my forehead. Redoing a paper, getting into arguments with my parents and pretty much this week sucked to the pits of hell.
More blogs coming soon and hopefully I get better luck and not getting hit by the corridor again, last time the corridor almost broke my nose.

Timcanpy from D. Grey Man

I still run strong for the anime of D. Grey Man and forgot to post this one up, poor Timcanpy. (I still don't remember how to spell the little Golems name.)

Cosplay Group Logo

I learned how to do make logos and now I can make my cosplay group logo for my cosplay group that I'm going to make on Facebook and DeviantArt. More to come and I did more of the paint thing.
More blogs coming soon.
Update: 
I no longer associate myself with Facebook and DeviantArt. I don't have accounts to either.
I only have Twitter and Instagram. I also do not have a cosplay group anymore as I chose to cosplay with my friends or alone.

Set the fire ablaze!

This week i learned to do more mixed media, my eyes burn and I accidentally screwed up the size for my tiff and jpeg files. I'm being a total klutz this week and two guys behind me annoying me with their fake farts, they're a couple amateur brats that have minds for respect, plus i kept asking them to please stop and telling them it's disgusting and rude, they never listened. I'm about to lose it if they don't stop and I wasn't able to finish the typography project so I have to do it when i have time but I never really don't alot of time to do it so i have to wait until i finish my Isearch project.


 I'll finish the typography project and put it up soon when i get time to finish it, i only have 90% left to do. More blogs coming next Friday!

Typography is confuzzle!

Typography takes a lot of time to finish and I'm still working on mine. Because, I screwed up several times and one student told to give up on it and start a new but I got stubborn and started fixing up the mistakes and i have only 30% - 50% of it done. I'm revealing who I'm doing the picture of yet because it's a surprise but I'll post it up and reveal it on my DeviantArt. This project is one of the most fascinating form of art I've seen yet and the picture is for a certain cosplayer who lives in Japan and wanted to do something for her because I love the cosplays she does, since she has made at least over 500 costumes. I hope to finish it in time before she goes off to another convention in another country so I can show her how much I look up to her as a big sister and somebody who inspires me to keep doing what I do best which is cosplay. The picture is almost done and please be patient as I'm trying my best to finish it. Arigato! Thank you!

Mixed Media and above

For this week I learned how to do Mixed Media for things like posters, music covers or just to show your emotions through your art but people used mixed media for everything but right now I'm learning how to do Typography, which might take awhile to finish. Doing a picture with words sounds complicated and is a lot of work to do, I mean you're basically seeing layers upon layers of of words that describe something or of just you but when all of that work is finished...It truly pays off but I'm straining my eyes while working on this Typography project that I have to wear my glasses that are designed for the computer and reading ((But, I sometimes forget to take them off when class ends and wound up wearing them for the whole day until I get home)).  I'll post more pieces of art work that I learned to do in this class at the end of next week.

If you can't be yourself, be a panda...erm, I mean Avatar, sorry.

This week I learned how to make an avatar character, what I mean by that is the Avatar things from James Cameron's Avatar film, that I still count as my most favorite films because of the quality and animation but also how much depth of the imagination that was put into the film.Alright let's change that topic of how much I fan girl over that film. But, still it's a piece of artwork and I've been to the exhibit in Seattle.

To me, I look weird as an avatar because of the ears I guess but I won't complain about it much and I'll have to repost my Killeroo on this blog because the last blog wasn't cooperating, so let's hope for the best because I worked my but off on that comic. The Kangaroo was a royal pain in the rear end and I didn't have time to color the background. I was like " Well, screw it! I ain't gonna waste my last few minuets and color the background then do gradations after, screw it!", I was basically tired and frustrated at that point because I had rough morning that day as well, arguing with my mother about how I bite her head off within the minuet she gets home. ((Well, personally to me there are times when I don't want to be bothered or when she likes to be a show - off at the hair parlor, which basically pisses me off. )) I know when my mother sees this post, she'll call me over in the computer room, and then squak at me about some of it ain't true when I just say, "It's my own point of view and not yours. Everyone has their own opinion and shouldn't judge their opinion if it means to be counted as an opinion that's been judged.", I'm just basically saying don't judge on others work unless it's that appropriate time to judge and compare one persons opinion with other opinions.


Basically, I want to get off that topic about judging opinions and how my mom squawks at me at some of the things I said. Okay, let's face it the pen for the wacom tablet was functioning right and I had to 15 - 17 calibration checks while I was working on the feet and pants of the Kangaroo, that's why I said working on the coloration for the Kangaroo ((pardon my french)) was a royal pain in the ass. And, I have to edit my Avatar picture here, so more updates coming next week on Friday.

What's going on so far

In class I learned how to fix up old photos that were damaged and to recolor them. But, I also learned how to Photoshop images. Photoshop is a lot more fun than fixing old photos.






I did this one and made a river go through the Suicide Forest in Japan, I know it's disgraceful to you but to me I really just don't like that place, it gives me uneasy feeling.
The same river again but this time slightly different, I tried my best to make it look I flooded New York city and a road somewhere in California (below).
 
 And, I retouched only two old pictures, a ranch house and a guy that looks like Germany from the anime Hetalia.



 I did a Christmas theme that was tricky to figure out without the teacher being around last Friday.

 A lot of layers to make each project worth the amount of work you do in each project but it depends on what kind of multimedia piece you're working on. I hope to get to learn more in this class of Animation and Photoshop because this class is fun and easy.
