Description [RENDEZ-VOUS? WITH THE MAD MATRYOSHKA]
Sorry I've been only posting fan arts lately; it's a nice break away from the stressful contest entries. Fan arts for me is close to operating a fax machine compared to programming your own OS on a customized computer, that is original art. This was more of a doodle than anything else and I haven't done flat coloring piece since Bloody Sunflower.

Anyway this song has been playing in the BG for, in all seriousness, HOURS (iTunes count is 50 but i listened to it countless times on niconico already so I'd say WAY more). It's been a while since I found a vocaloid song I like this much but really; the lyrics, tempo, claps, catchiness... everything is there in one big awesome! If you have a niconico account I totally recommended it! [link]

I have older works that's colored in solid flat colors and personally I enjoy coloring in flats a biiiiiit more since I'm still practicing paint style. Glad you like it! I hope I get to work on these types of illustrations more.

Ooooh I see, I see. I like this style, it reminds me of comics in a sense and has a retro feel in a way.

I look forward to more

talking about confusing songs I have no idea why Japanese music artist love contradicting tunes and lyrics... there's so much musics that has depressing lyrics yet it has SUCH an upbeat, catchy tunes you want to repeat over and over again.

so tru!!! u listen to the song think 'oh wow!! it makes me so happy n...happy!'
n then u check out the meaning of the lyrics n then u don't like sunshine n ponies anymore!!!

but thats wat makes it sooo cool!!!! when someone said 'Meltdown' was a song on suicide i was like 'Wat the.... NO WAY!' i dance everytime i listen to it!

EvilApple513 In reply to chasva [2010-08-28 03:46:37 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha yea I guess the contradicting feel is cool.
Kinda like "Saihate". First time I heard it I totally it was some happy break up song but it was actually a funeral song! Now when I die I actually want someone to play that upon my death!
I was HIGHLY amused after I heard about that with "Meltdown"... but its still an AMAZING piece of work! I cant stop listening!

Saihate is a funeral song!!??? WOAH!!!! so cool!!!! another good break up song was'just be friends'... it sounded like a fun way to break up!! >.<
n very tru bout their songs... they are so ADDICTIVE!!!!... one should stop n consider the fact that these are not real people we are gettin SO obsessive bout... but wat the heck... real people don't have songs as fun as these!!!!! XD

I'm simply addicted to this song, Hachi's best yet.

I like how you took the style from the PV and added a dynamic twist to it, very awesome.

hn... is diferent, and i love flat colors, some people think is "easy", using color 'here and here'. I really enjoy the contrast between flat colors and irregular lineart. My fav part are the heavy lines, it looks lovely with flar colors >w<.

EvilApple513 In reply to Wolficka [2010-08-23 03:56:07 +0000 UTC]

Not just some; a lot of people think its easy and take less effort for flat colors. Personally I love flat black and I have to admit; it IS easier for me to do details and more pop, design images so I LOVE it. People seem to dig it too as "thats cool!" way more often than my soft paint shading since for that its either amazingly awesome, half assed, or suck hard core. But you need to have a REALLY unique style or else it's just laziness or that anime looking thing a LOT of the time so it's frustrating. Especially when you're trying to get a job or a commission. Also from what I've seen, it works better in other countries than the US where the art form has a narrower acceptance. Flat coloring is more like a product design and illustrations than "art" which I dont mind... but it still I had many instances (ESPECIALLY my AP art teacher) that made me feel like less of an artist with flats.

Then again it might be just me who cant make a master piece with flat colors by lack of skills and sense of design LOL!! Now I'm motivated to practice more since you like it too!

hahaha, as my art teacher used to say "if something (like a painting or whatever) make people 'feel something' like sadness, happyness, etc... then you can call it 'art', because the goal of the art is make people to feel"
in my opinion.. i like all your styles XD, i can see the effort you're putting in all of them. XD

EvilApple513 In reply to Wolficka [2010-08-23 04:46:38 +0000 UTC]

Yea none of my art teacher was like that; most of them were "draw what people like; selling what makes you succeed" or along those lines. But thank you for the complement and that quote... it really does make me feel better and ehhhhhhhhhhh I'm not confident enough that my works are powerful enough to influence people's feeling yet so I'll definitely keep trying!

hahahahaha, seriously?? My teacher would probably throw up blood if she hear something like that.
your works always makes me meditate or feel something, for example, my fav [link]
i can't help it XD You can feel the greed and the gluttony XD
and the one with 'the rose with the eye ball'!! >w< When my friend saw that, they called me "creepy" is not my fault than they don't have good tastes XDDD
