Games I Like

Hello everyone today I wanted to talk about a game I have been recently playing to you guys.

 I recently got into is Guild Wars 2, and I am happy I did. This game was developed by Arenanet, and I think its awesome. Guild Wars 2 is a massive game, I have been playing this game for 2 weeks now and I only have 7% of the game done. In this game you can choose from five different races Char, Human, Asura, Sylvari, and Norn. After you have chosen from these various races you have to choose your class. The classes you can choose from are Mesmer, Guardian, Necromancer, Ranger, Elementalist, and Warrior. To break things down so it will be easier for everyone to under stand I will be talking about my own class and race. I am a Human Necromancer, and I think the necromancer class is amazing. You can summon your own minions to help you fight, and you can suck the life force out of enemy's and transfer it to you. There are just so many things you can do in guild wars you can do events, you can do your quests or you can do your personal story quest. The best part is every so often an event boss spawns in the server. Usually when an event boss spawns its a group event that means a lot of other player in that server are going to join and help fight to kill the boss. When the boss dies everyone gets loot. This is why I think Guild Wars 2 is an awesome game

Ninth drawing blog: How to Draw a Kitten Part: 1

Step 1: Draw a rough circle. At the bottom of this circle make a small upside down semi-circle. On each side of the circle draw triangles. Make sure these triangles are at the top of the head because these are going to be the kitten's ears. For the kitten's nose/mouth draw and upside down triangle, and make a small upside down "Y" touching its tip. For the kittens eyes draw two ovals, and add small circles that have the top left side cut off. Above the kitten's eyes draw an "M" in chicken scratch form. On the sides of the eyes draw a small curve going downwards. Under the left eye draw a small curved "V" and for the right eye draw a big curved "V". Make the kitten's neck by drawing a big obtuse angle going downwards. Back to the kittens eyes. Go to the areas that were cut off, and draw a bubbly circle for each eye. Shade in the pupil dark black and outline the outside of the eye with the same dark black. Shade in the cornea (area around the kittens pupil) by making it darker the further it is away from the pupil.

Step 2: Shade in the kitten's nose lightly, and add small semi circles on each side of the triangle to make nostrils. Darken the mouth of the kitten, making sure the middle of the mouth is darker. Start adding small lines from the tips of the nose towards the kitten's eyes. From the nose shade in a triangle going upwards. Make sure that the triangles tip reaches the highest point of the kitten's eyes. Darken the "V" that is next to both of the eyes. Above both of the kittens eyes add small curved lines. Add a few more lines on top of the triangle between the kittens eyes making it reach the chicken scratch "M".

Just Talking

Hi guys Minas here I just wanted to sit down and right to guys about something that I like a lot. If you guys don't know I love drawing, and I love origami hence forth why i made this blog about those subjects. In a recent blog post I told you guys how I got into drawing, now I am going to tell you guys how I got into origami.

I got into origami in a way that most people might not have thought. A few years back before I started blogging my family and I went to an art museum. When I was at the that museum I saw many sculptures that really fascinated me. After that trip I decided I wanted to start sculpting, but I didn't know how and the supplies for it were to expensive for me to buy. After that I thought of other ways to sculpt and origami came to me. Origami was simple and the materials for it were cheap (just paper). I started by making simple airplanes slowly getting better and making more advanced creations. I now usually build an origami creation weekly to daily because it fascinates me. That's how I got into origami I hope you enjoyed this blog see you next time.

Step 1: First get a normal sheet of printer paper and make it into a square piece of paper. Fold the square piece of paper in half both ways. Your paper should have a plus going through the paper, and a a line going through the middle. Now turn the paper so it looks like a diamond, and Fold it in half to make a triangle. Do a reverse fold going inward on the triangle. This will take out on of the corners in the paper. Now do the same thing to the other corner.

Step 2: Now fold each of the flaps towards the middle on there respected side. Fold the triangle at the top of the paper downwards. Now unfold each of the flaps so the paper would look like a smaller diamond. Fold the layer that is facing you forwards. This will make a small bowl shape. Press down on this bowl making a thin diamond. Now do the same thing to the next layer.

Step 3: Unfold the Sides that you just folded making it turn back into a small diamond. Now you are going to do a petal fold on the diamond. Bring one flap upwards, so a pocket is made. You are then going to fold the sides of the pocket downwards so it makes a long diamond. Do that to the other side. Fold every bottom side of the diamond towards the middle so the bottom of the diamond is skinnier then the top. Turn the diamond to its side, so it looks flat for you. Then unfold the side facing you making it flat the other way. When the side is flat fold it upwards until it cant go any higher. When you have finished that fold it back in half. Do that same process to the other side. Choose the side that you want to be the head, and do a reverse fold on the tip of the piece making it look like a head. Grab the piece opposite to the head a push it further to its corresponding side. That will make the cranes tail. Finally fold the flaps downwards that are separating the head from the tail. There you have it you have just finished you origami crane.

Step 1: Get a square piece of paper and turn it, so it looks like a diamond. Then grab the bottom flap and fold it upwards. It should look like a triangle now. Now fold the right side of the triangle to the left side, then unfold it. Bring the tip of the right side to the top of the triangle. Do same thing to the left side. Now fold each of the sides downwards, so there tips are now on the bottom. Then unfold the piece so it is back to a small diamond.

Step 2: Fold each side of the diamond, so the tips of the left and right side are touching the middle. Now unfold that, so it back to a diamond. Now that there is a crease on the very side of each side do a reverse fold on them. Fold the entire thing in half, so it will look like a trapezoid. On each side of the trapezoid fold on of the flaps downwards making a ninety degree angle on the paper. Fold the part that made the ninety degree angle to the other side now. Fold the top corner of the paper towards both sides. Use the vertical line as a folding area. Now do a reverse fold on that corner folding it inside.

Step 3: Fold the flaps that made a ninety degree angle back to its original side leaving some of it on the side it was still on. On the very bottom of the paper (opposite to the corner that was reverse folded in step three) fold the tip of the corner to the side. Now unfold this, and do a reverse fold on the corner. You are now done with your origami dove.

Step 1: Get a square piece of paper and fold it in half vertically. Then fold the piece of paper in half again, but this time horizontally. Grab the flap that is facing you, and fold that back up. Now unfold everything so it looks like a rectangle again. Fold the left corner down towards the other side unfold that and do the same thing to the other corner. Do a revere fold on those corners making that top section turn into a triangle.

Step 2: Fold the bottom flap of the rectangle so it meets up with the bottom of the triangle. Grab one side of the triangle, and bring it to the other side. With the corner gone fold the rectangle part of the paper to the middle. When you are done with that fold the triangle back to its place, do that to the other side. Fold the rectangle part of the triangle again so it meets up with the bottom of the triangle. Fold the corners of that rectangle downwards so the corners meet up with the bottom. Now unfold the rectangle and do a reverse fold on those small corners. It should look like there is an upside down pentagon on the bottom of the triangle. Fold the corners of the trapezoid downwards to it looks like its an upside down trapezoid

Step 3: Fold the corners of the top triangle upwards to make small arms. Fold the middle trapezoid flaps towards there corresponding sides. Fold the pentagon upwards then unfold half of it back downwards. You are now done with your Origami Frog.

Tips on How to Draw Better

Hi guys I just wanted to sit down, and wright to you guys and explain how to get better at drawing. I am going to be using eight tricks that worked for me.

Number 1: Practice. I cant say this enough you have to practice drawing everyday, to get better. Even if its just a few sketches a day if you want to get good at drawing you have to practice.

Number 2: Use photos references. It is very hard to draw pictures well just using your mind. Have photo references of the picture you are drawing it will help you a lot.

Number 3: Study on one thing you like. If you like to draw animals stick with drawing animals for a while, and when you are ready to start a knew topic stay on that for a while. Don't just keep drawing new pictures you have to get used to the topic of art you are doing.

Number 4: Think of what your drawing as an abstract arrangement of different shapes it will help you in the long run.

Number 5: Make sure you know how to contrast your drawing knowing what is bright or dark.

Number 6: Have good art supplies. Don't just go to any craft store or online store and get art supplies because those aren't the best. Get your equipment form a store that sells them for a living that how you know they are good.

Number 7: Know what perspective your drawing at. You'll have to know the difference between first person second and third.

Number 8: Do not compare you art to other peoples art if it makes you feel bad. This will make you stress out, and even sometimes make your art look even worse. If you compare your art to someone that is better then you, and you feel sad about it you have to stop doing that.
