DeviantArtist Questionnaire
How long have you been on DeviantArt?
For about six years now. Where's the missing year, you ask? I've had another account before this one, but I felt I needed a fresh start.What does your username mean?
Well, that's a tough one. I had this OC idea in my head, I came up with a story for her (I just called her G) and placed her in a group of warriors. So GTeam came to be!Describe yourself in three words.
Weird, art, books.Are you left or right handed?
Right handed.What was your first deviation?
I removed everything on my old account and I recently cleaned my current gallery too, so let's just go with the oldest deviation on this account.What is your favourite type of art to create?
Well, it depends. Pencils excite me beyond belief and I love doodling and sketching, but I also adore the freedom digital art offers. Mostly I do personal works, since I find art best expresses my emotions and thoughts. But really, it's all about fun~If you could instantly master a different art style, what would it be?
Marvel.What was your first favourite?
Honestly, it was so long ago I don't have a single fuckin clue. I also fave a lot ... so yeah. I have no idea XDWhat type of art do you tend to favourite the most?
I always favourite my friends' submissions, which I'd say is most of it, but I just fave anything I like, really.Who is your all-time favourite deviant artist?
No question or doubt about that one, it's my bby HotPotatoo!
If you could meet anyone on DeviantArt in person, who would it be?
It would be my bby. I'd give anything to meet her in person. AND ONE DAY I WILL. Plus, you know, all the friends I've made here!How has a fellow deviant impacted your life?
Well, to stick with Hot XD she's my angel, to sum it up. Extremely long story short; she saved me several times, mostly from myself, also from bad situations. I've been a hell of a lot happier ever since I met her and she really does bring out the best in me. Her selflessness and kindness continue to amaze me every single day. She's hilarious, serious when need be and the best friend anyone could ever ask for. I don't wanna sound cheesy, then again I really don't care if I do, but I love my soul sister from the bottom of my heart. Because of her, I honestly and truly believe in fate. We were meant to be besties. Fuck the distance between us, we have something most never experience.What are your preferred tools to create art?
Pencils and my tablet.What is the most inspirational place for you to create art?
I'm not really sure, because I either create art in my room or at school, it doesn't really matter all that much to me. But I draw inspiration and motivation from things I hold dear to my heart, one of them being my OCs and RPs I have with others. Music is really inspiring as well, or huge, important events in life.What is your favourite DeviantArt memory?
Again, can't be too sure. I can't really pinpoint one. I can tell you about my favourite parts of being part of dA though. The people I meet, the friends I make. Sure, sharing our works is great, but talking with friends, getting to know new people, different cultures, it's awesome.
Hecky needs help!
If anyone could help her, we'd both appreciate it a hell of a lot.
Thank you.
The Broken Empire Trilogy
The hero, or I guess the best term would be the antihero, Jorg Ancrath is such an evil genius ... so fucked up yet so lovable. Seriously, even though the things he does are horrible ...well, each deed has a purpose, however meaningless or random it seems.
But anyway, I usually spoil things if I ever try reviewing books, so I'll just type down how I felt while reading this masterpiece.
First off - I loved the way Lawrence developed his characters and I especially loved Jorg's development.
What I also really liked was the fact that despite being prince, later even king and emperor never defied Jorg. He didn't rely on his titles to save him. He was only ever Jorg, a road brother and a really fucking twisted kid who grew into a corrupted (might I also add extremely charming) man.
The first book (Prince of Thorns) was a bit of a shock, again because Jorg (aged 14) was so corrupt and dark (perhaps even evil), but after learning his story him being bad is actually very much enjoyable and quite refreshing.
Immediately after reading the first book I had to go buy the second one (King of Thorns). I was surprised to find that the events in the second book happen in the time span of a single day, but there's also bits of his past included (which is a reccuring theme in the entire trilogy), from where the first book left off, up to now (so from his 14th to 18th year).
There were a few new things in the second book, such as Jorg's insanity and the taming of it - the copper box with thorns was a brilliant addition, I felt it kept things interesting.
Last but not least; the third book (Emperor of Thorns; Jorg's 20 in this book) ... MY GOD. This was a magnificent end to the Broken Empire trilogy and I agree with the author that this was the only way I see fit for Jorg's story to end.
And honestly ... my heart pounded like crazy and I cried my freaking eyes out. It was so fucking good.
I definitely suggest this trilogy to everyone, although I feel it might be too dark for most ... *evil laughter*
