How I've Been Feeling Lately...

Because I've been feeling kind of bored lately after Labor Day weekend, I think I'd like to talk about some things that have been on my mind recently to my friends and watchers here on deviantART... As everyone may know, summer is about to come to an end sometime this month, and I've actually been in the mood for drawing a couple of summer-themed pictures involving my Team Shinobi characters, despite how late it may be for me to draw anything else for summer; I would also like to take this opportunity to work on some pictures in time for autumn, which happens to be one of my most favorite seasons of the year, especially when the temperatures start to drop where I live. There has been a lot of things that have been happening for me this summer, and I think it's kind of a shame that I never actually got around to drawing as many summer-themed pictures as I hoped, including some newer pictures that I wanted to draw featuring my "T.U.F.F. Puppy" characters, which I've been wanting to draw a lot more ever since I created my own group of heroes-for-hire known as 'Team Shinobi'. However, I have been dealing with another art block that made it kinda hard for me to focus on my artwork, especially since I was also spending the weekend at my sister's house watching her pet dogs while she and her boyfriend were away for the weekend. And so, I don't really have many pictures to post on here for this week, so I decided to take a couple days off dA except when checking my messages so that I can get to work on some pictures that I need to complete before I forget.

I am also planning on getting myself a Nintendo WiiU very soon after finally being able to save up my money for this month, and I'll even try to purchase a couple of games that I've been wanting to play for quite some time after feeling a bit left out of the Nintendo fandom lately such as "Super Mario 3D World" and "Mario Kart 8". Now, I just hope that no one thinks of me as some kind of loser just because I haven't been able to play most of the newer Nintendo games that have come out in the past couple of years, but I don't think that catching up to any video games that I missed out on when they were originally released is meant to be a bad thing at all, especially since I've been able to do the same for all the video games for the older consoles that I remember being out when I was a kid (such as the NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis), which I was able play a lot more often since my days in high school. I know this may sound kind of ironic, but another reason that feel like wanting to play "Mario Kart 8" is so that I can be able to draw a picture or two involving any of my original characters racing in MK vehicles after being able to see some similar pictures that were done by my friends and , and that I wouldn't feel left out anymore while doing so, even though I know they are still great friends who are always so supportive of me. I guess it's just a typical feeling that I've been having lately, since I've actually become prone to jealously as long as I could remember, and there are still times in which I feel like I just want to be appreciated as much as everyone else I know, especially when drawing something completely random on my mind that I'd want to share on dA.

And while I'm on the subject, I would also like to let everyone know about some changes that I have decided to make involving some of my Team Shinobi characters. For instance, I've decided to give the youngest member of the team, Shizu Siam, a completely different weapon from now on: Instead of a seemingly endless supply of shuriken (AKA ninja stars), Shizu's new weapon would be a pair of bladed fans almost similar to the ones used by Kitana from the "Mortal Kombat" games. I was even thinking of giving Mackey Que a true ninja weapon instead of him just using his tools as weapons; If anyone knows of any other ninja weapons that would be perfect for him to use, I would appreciate any suggestions, which I'll respond to as soon as possible. As for Shaun Inu (Dudley's Japanese cousin), I have decided to make his personality much more comical by having him constanly trying to impress every sexy female character he would meet, wheither they are good or evil, and he would occassionally fail by getting the snot kicked out of him, but he'd never give up afterwards. Other than that, I should be quite good on drawing more pictures after getting some ideas that are sure to inspire me soon enough.
