I think it isn't late to say...



Thanks for all the support everyone. I know erraine have been quiet for the past months but well, I am not really that active in icon making. In fact, I started iconing just around last year and learning to make good icons needs time. I practiced a lot so don't worry, I'll improve my graphic skills.

This batch is called 'Estima'. It used to be known as 'Ameria' but that time I was having a graphic meltdown, so it wasn't complete. However, some of the icons in this batch came directly from the 'Ameria' batch, mostly from the Arina Tanemura batch and Hakushaku to Yousei. This post is originally meant for Kuroshitsuji icons post (in return for the beautiful song by Kalafina, Lacrimosa, for the second ending theme for Kuroshitsuji anime series). Three of the icons came from 'Ameria' while the rest 15 are made specially for 'Estima'.

Hi guys. Just popping out to say that erraine have a shiny new layout, new profile banner and community userpic! It featured Kaname and Yuuki, with my sugar high fandom within it. *laughs* Thanks milou_veronica for the layout and profile code. It's pretty, xDDD. And ohfreckle @ ownthesunshine for the handwriting textures for the header. I am fond of it very much.

I'll bring some new batch. I'll make sure it's small, not large batches. I lost inspiration from making icons after doing so many icons. It looked hideous. Well, until then! Oh yes, in my journal, I've posted the colouring I did for Sloth (~mrsloth at DA) VK fanart. :3

I take no credit for the fanart, I only coloured it. To see more of the fanartist's arts, go visit the DA page. Thanks!

Hi guys. Today I made a tutorial for manga colouring, as per requested by miko_tsuki. Please check it out! It has Ciel Phantomhive as our experiment! I choose Ciel because it's part of my shop request requested by azuyama_chan at VKF. I am sure you guys won't dislike it. I made it with my own time, and ooh, bonus on the reason behind the skin colouring. Multiply + Soft Light, murder!
