What's the stitch?~

I can't seem to upload pics here, asdfghjkl!! >.>

Well anyway. I can't even remember what I was Googling lol, but I came across some articles about 'Kim Possible' and I almost fell in love again, haha. I used to watch it every weekend <3 possibly the best cartoon ever, Disney just rules. The end.

Something that really made me think was the art style, soooo simple and clean. Not shaded coz it's animated and stuff, but I could definitely learn from it! So I'm trying some random styles, I'll probably use my usual style anyways lol. But I still love to mess around and try things out, if I don't like, I give up, so whoop!!

Another thing about the show I admire was it appeals to many audiences. Tweens and young adults, apparently. Haven't watched an episode in forever, but there was a good amount of dialogue, I think. Kids shows have come a loooong way since the 80's and 90's haha. Now they have a realistic, mature touch. Giving kids an understanding of things they probably didn't think they understood, thus kids are smarter now. I think so at least. Lol, another small example I read was that 'Princess and the frog' contained a funeral or something. Kids are exposed to all sorts of sh*t in real life, it's only fair they include such things in cartoons, especially family ones.
Back to the Kimness. She's a wondergirl lol. Who can apparently do anything and is also a super trained spy. So yeah. My point:

Realistic fantasy.

It's totally something I adore. And often wish I could do without getting over cliched and boring OTL but I wont go there with EH, it's too insane lol.

I'm not hugely active on DA nowadays, but I'm not drawing much lately, trying to get myself together and get more education.

'The depressing lives of happy teens' is still making me smirk. Hehe. It'd be a cool tag line for EH I think. And sums up my life quite well. Anyone else in my shoes would be depressed as f*ck. I just get on with it, and I'm fairly happy, I guess...
