Back to my DA roots!
I will NOT be creating a new account, even if this one is old (7 years now, dang..). Probably going to clean up my watchers list and start half-fresh because my neglected notifications are already in the several thousands at this very moment. I have old comments and replies to get through and whatnot that i may or may not even answer.
A lot has happened the past while, and i'm about to graduate college with a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering. It will take a few days or weeks, but i'll eventually have my profile re-updated and will be back with regular activity and posting on this site. So for now, a fresh hello to anyone out there!
Hiya any and everyone! Wall of text ahead! Jump over it to the bolded question if you would like
I’ve had the realization recently: I can confidently call myself an artist. That may sound kind of silly—I mean, what am I doing on this site anyway? But no, I used to think that I was just some kid drawing fanart and that I wasn’t anywhere skilled enough to be an actual “artist”. I could argue that I’ve gotten a lot better and more confident in my abilities leading up to this point and this realization. That wouldn’t be the reason though, because I could still go the comparison route and focus on all that I can’t do in order to justify not being a real artist. I’m no art major, I’m not currently taking classes or doing anything professional with art. But, I can still pick up a pencil and a paper and draw! And even if I’m not good at drawing certain things, I can still draw whatever I want! I can use my hands to create whatever image I would like! I am an artist because I can and choose to create. I don’t have to be good, I don’t have to be professional, I don’t have to always be drawing. None of those things disqualify me from being an artist 
Anyway, so I was thinking about this due to all of the sketching I do while at school, which inevitably leads to people asking why you art so much(especially when it’s in all your engineering and math classes lol). I had no real explanation for it other than I love it haha.
Now! For those who read through that!! I have 1.6 sketchbooks of drawings… I want to share them ALL but it’s so much and I no longer have a scanner(I can filter them so they look okay, it just takes time).. So you tell me: What art would you like to see?
Some things I have for sure:
*Undertale
*winged people/bird people
*some character-unspecific romantic fluff
*dragons and dinosaurs and misc. monsters
*pokemon!! Lol no way I draw that?
*cartoon me and sister and cats. And cats.
*humans??? May include characters, but also just rando ppl. Oh also bookppl
*personal garbo I’m sure
*httyd
*original ideas/concepts for things
*Hamilton(like, the musical yo)
*superheros+supersidekicks, including some I made up
*Phineas and Ferb(it’s probably not much!! I mean same to the rest of these but still I know ppl watch me for PnF(still?) so don get hype)
And if you know me/my art well enough to guess what I might draw, suggest that too haha. If you say something I haven’t drawn, I may just perhaps be inspired to draw it later 
Also, another question! How are you doing today? or this week? or this month? Whenever! Just how are you? ^u^ are you here months or years after I posted this? As long as I'm not dead feel free to share regardless haha
Probably wont update my journal for another 50 ages, so take care everyone!
50 years later
jk its only been a few months, but I would like to apologize on behalf of my inactivity to anyone who was expecting more from me.. U_UI've ignored notifications for a while now; I tend to do that sometimes.. I have no excuse, either
I'm sorry U_UANYWHOOZLE, Mads here!!
What could I possibly have been doing during this time?? Well!! :
I've been obsessed with a few VIDEOGAMES. Mainly, ARK: Survival evolved and Undertale. I also have PSMD, but I've stopped part-way for now.
Undertale has been taking the internet by storm it seems, and though I hopped on the bandwagon this past Nov/Dec I'm still hopelessly converted into UT trash and I know it. Even so, I recommend the game, like a ton! A
Now ARK! youtube a trailer[link--> ]for it or anything, and it looks AMAZING. It's still in development and a lot of people have beef with it,(the game also has beef with everyone's poor computers) so I don't recommend that.. It looks like potato graphics on my computer but I still play the darned thing SO much because YOU CAN TAME AND RIDE DINOSAURS!!!
Both of these have influenced my art as of recent! I've been drawing dinosaurs and spoopy skeletons quite a bit, and may share some here. All-in-all though, I haven't made much presentable art recently :/
Regarding life-stuff I'm looking forward to my future this year. I've been accepted to a transfer school for college, and it's someplace heckie pretty and I'm excited. I'm just working my classic Mc-job here and saving up while taking a few classes. It ain't half bad.
The point of this journal is to just say hi! I hope you all had a radical Christmas and New Year! Feel free to share how you are doin' or what new things you've been into this 2016~! I'll try and be more responsive on this site, at least for a while. Maybe post some of my stuff, ya'know? Thanks for reading UuU
Pokemon X and Y Friend Codes
back to school nonsense
I already chose who the new team member is(still working on the name though). I linked all of the art involving my team in the app description if anyone felt like taking a peak. I appreciate all comments and favorites 
so I guess I'll take it one day at a time :c Don't expect much art for the next few months, well, except for breaks maybe. I guess that's really all I wanted to say I just rambled a lot. Hope everyone out there is doing well c:
