Vacation!

Later today, we will be going on a vacation! I will not be able to post for that time, as it is a road trip(not that I've been consistent with my posts anyway :P )
When I get back, I hope to have a lot of cool stuff to show you guys, and tell about.
Until then, I'm going to the beach XD

Road Trip

Sorry for not posting, I just havent done much recently that I need to show you guys.  No new pictures or Models or anything.
My tablet has been acting weird, really slowly and I cant draw with that so now pictures like I said,
And I just dont really feel like working on the Pinkie Pie MMD Models.
The Twilight Sparkle models are done though, so that's nice.  I just need to actually get pictures of them and upload them.  I dont know when I'll do that though.  I wanted to release them all at the same time, but that seems kinda stupid to have them just sitting there in my folder.  So, I think I will release the Twilight Sparkle models when I find a 4 person Dance Motion that I like, because then I can give an accompanying video on YouTube.

Alright, other news :
I have actually learned how to make an oto.ini myself! I will not be doing Chiyone Maiko's, since Miramiee is already doing that, but I will be doing LS#1's Utau, who doesnt have a name yet(nor design), but she does have the voice fully recorded.  We just plowed right through it one night, where as it took weeks to record Maiko's.  I guess I'm just slower by myself.

Recently I have been in a huge Legend of Zelda mood.  I have been watching a lot of let's plays of some of the games, and it's been several days of watching them actually.  I have gotten a lot of progress on a scarf I was knitting.  It's not done yet;  I stopped because I wanted to knit something Zelda-themed.  So I have been making several goes at knitting some Triforce Fingerless Gloves.

Try #1 :
I cast on a lot of stitchs, around enough to fit my wrist.  Did some ribbing for a few rows and then stockinette stitch.  Did the Triangles and they turned out good.  The biggest problem was that I did not have a pattern, so my thumbhole sucked and the triforce wasnt in the middle of the back of the hand like I intended.  Try#1 = Fail

Try #2 :
This time I actually looked for a pattern.  Found a pretty good one, so I cast on!  Unfortunately, I noticed a few minutes late that "Whoops!" this pattern is in the round! Which means that me and my 2 needles wont work.  So I searched around for a pair of round needles, but no luck.  So I settled for some double pointed.  Well, see, this is my first time knitting in a round, so I did a bit of practice but got the hang of it really quick.  The rows went by fast, and suddenly I'm already putting in the triforce pattern, but earlier, I had noticed that it was getting very big, so I simply stopped the increases the pattern called for.  Now we are about current.  The whole thing is still way too big.  I probably will end up with a Try#3 later, but making it proportionally smaller all around.  Try#2 = Will probably fail


Next up on the block, we are planning a vacation in a little more then a week.  We are going to be going up to kentucky, then over to the beach, then Atlanta, and then home, perhaps with a few other places I forgot.  We've been planning this trip for awhile, so it's kinda weird to have it so close(And actually out of the planning stage).

And now for the final piece of news, I am going to be starting work on a big project.  I wont tell you now what it is, but there will be updates on that occasionally.

Happy 4th of July!

Happy Independence Day everybody!
I'm to tired to do anything because I had a lot of fun earlier.  We went to my great-grandmother's house and had a cookout.  It was exhausting, playing with younger kids.  Why do you get more tired as you get older? I'm only 15 and I couldn't keep up with 8 and 9 year olds.  Maybe I just need more practice running.  I bet I would be faster if I wasn't sitting around my computer all day.

Well, Early today I was planning on drawing a big really nice picture for you all to celebrate the 4th of July.  I'm going to have to make it tomorrow because I couldn't today.

There are apparently some problems on oto'ing my utau voicebank.  The really awesome Miriamee is having trouble because she cant hear the samples, and that makes it much easier.  If she cant hear them, she cant properly tell what area is what and all that.  Additionally, I made an English voicebank, and she is not used to the extra sounds(I put in a lot of them).

I cant think of anything else to say about today, or news for you guys.
