Description Okay this is going to be a submit-and-run I'm afraid but I will eventually get round to answering my over 11,000 notifications, haha. This was started about a month ago and then abandoned until this weekend when I finished it quite quickly. c: Just a speedpaint using a reference to try and get me back into digital painting! It was really fun to experiment with different brushes, especially.

I'll make a journal about this in the next few days, but the thing is I've been insanely busy with exams, and now I've only got two left I should have a little more time for dA (hopefully).

I'm sorry I've been absent for the past few months but I'm really really hoping that will change soon.

Song is 'Feel Again' by OneRepublic [link] (yeah not relevant xD)

Thank you for this wonderful comment! :'D

I'm glad you think it turned out well~


And yeah, I'm all finished now, thankfully. It's a great feeling! I'm glad I've got such a nice long summer now, before I start college.

Sweet baby jesus this is incredible LOL I've been keeping this in my inbox clicking on it every now and then to see it ;u; Sometimes I don't know what to say except to just...bow down XD You are a landscape/background master! I swear to jeebus you improve with each piece. It's amazing to see, all the time <3 You should be very proud of yourself! The colors in this one are so lovely. It looks like a wonderful traditional piece, nicely blended colors and all ;u; But then I realize it's digital! It's fantastic. Awesome work buddy!

So far, I only have to worry about English and History ( Improving the grade in History ) Maths and English I have a pass in and everything is looking up...

Its been fast... Maybe too fast.

That's great. c: Yeah I'm glad I've got most of my exams out of the way too. Just got this FSMQ thing and Business to do now, thankfully.

Yeah, I feel like this year has gone so quickly. It feels like yesterday I was walking into the new building for the first time. It's been a good one though.
How do you feel about this study leave we're (kinda) getting? ^^

SCP-079 In reply to charlottei [2013-05-30 18:10:23 +0000 UTC]

Study leave. I don't know what to think about it, It is kinda due to a event i have to go to on 20th June, but Aside from that, i'm indifferent to it.

What about you?

charlottei In reply to SCP-079 [2013-05-31 16:53:01 +0000 UTC]

Oh what are you doing then? Anything good? c:

And I'm not that fussed to be honest. My last exam is Business and I have that every single day anyway so it doesn't make a huge amount of difference.

Oh cool. Have a nice time~

And yeah, that's very true. I'll be so glad when it's summer and I don't need to worry about this kind of thing anymore (for a while anyway).

Do you know what you're doing next year? c:

SCP-079 In reply to charlottei [2013-06-01 20:33:29 +0000 UTC]

In collage? ICT course and Human physiology.

Its a bit daunting really but im looking forward to it, Its at Oldham six form and no one I know is going there... so it should be a fresh start,

What about you? Surely someone with so many A* has a good place among the higher collages... :3

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

charlottei In reply to SCP-079 [2013-06-03 20:27:35 +0000 UTC]

Oh that should be good. I would have taken those too if I had more options! Why did you pick those?

And I'm going to Oldham Sixth Form College, too, if that's the one you mean. I think a lot of people presumed I was going to Bluecoat or something, but I never really saw the appeal? I don't like the idea of going to a high school sixth form... I'm sick of the high school environment, y'know? Having to mentor year 7s and stuff. xD

SCP-079 In reply to charlottei [2013-06-03 22:03:58 +0000 UTC]

The less we talk about Year sevens the better XD

ICT was just a option I thought I could expand on as they said it could benefit me finding a job in this day and age. I also find physiology fascinating, Learning how the human mind work could help me get to know myself a little better

But yeah, Oldham six form is where im going, I was under the impression that not many people where going...

charlottei In reply to SCP-079 [2013-06-06 20:50:03 +0000 UTC]

Psh. xD

And those sound like pretty good reasons to me. Especially the last one. I would have loved to have taken that too... If I had five options I definitely would have. I'm always looking at the textbooks in WH Smith and being tempted to buy one anyway.

I know quite a few people. Not that many, though~

Oh well, "As life goes on, You meet and forget so many people, But only grand ones make impacts upon our life's" as my father would say.

Speaking of the sort, what options have you taken?

charlottei In reply to SCP-079 [2013-06-08 21:38:50 +0000 UTC]

Huh. Nice quote.

And I'm doing Biology, Chemistry, English Language & Literature (combined qualification) and Graphics
I was thinking of taking Maths as a fifth... But after doing this FSMQ thing this year, yeah I've totally abandoned that idea now. I'm just so glad I don't have to do it any more!

Hey, have you heard about the New Students' Day at Oldham Sixth Form? It's on the same day as prom so I can't go. The only day that I'm busy.

SCP-079 In reply to charlottei [2013-06-09 13:23:40 +0000 UTC]

I might ditch prom and go... Its kinda important... but for people who have already Prepared for prom I can understand...

Buts how funny its on the same day as prom... > u >...

That is alot of options as well... But is it like One lesson a day.

It is confusing at the moment... that's why I wanted to go to open day... to clear up a few things...

charlottei In reply to SCP-079 [2013-06-09 21:22:10 +0000 UTC]

Awww no make sure you come to Prom. I'd go to both except I'm busy all day getting my hair done and stuff, haha.

I do think it's a really good idea though. I bet it'll help a lot of people who are unsure about options or what the courses entail~

I think it'd be a shame to miss out on it. I don't like /everybody/ in our year but there's still so many people that I do... it's going to be strange not seeing everyone any more, and this is our chance to say goodbye, once and for all (in most cases). c:

Once again, I thought it was a photography by looking at the thumbnail.. XD
I'll keep saying this over and over, but your painting skills, especially at backgrounds, stun me.


Btw. what kind of exams are you doing now? A-levels or just "normal" ones?

This is incredible-
The colors just go so nicely and it's got this antique, very painterly feel. The light bloom really adds to it.
You made it (especially the trees and flowers) look as if they were painted traditionally xD

It's just so lovely and calming. Really nice job. -Envious of your digital painting talents-
