[Stream] "Watch Me Sprite / Draw!"

[SassySnivy]

If this totally isn't cool, let me know. I know I'm pretty much advertising something but I figure it'd be okay since really it's just an art stream. :p
I figured I would put out a lot of reminders every time I have one of these streams, and I certainly didn't want to flood the blogs. cx More convenient and a little more organized to just have a thread for it all.

Hello everyone! Last night I decided that I would host a live pixel art stream on Picarto, three nights a week. For now I'm dubbing it "Watch Me Sprite!" and plan on working on some more high-resolution sprites during the streams.

The main reason that I want to do this is because I've found out that I love having people to blab to while I'm making artwork. It's just that...well, I can't really focus on my art while typing messages all at the same time. I don't have a special microphone, but I will be speaking through audio. :3 I did an impromptu one last night and I had a lot of fun with it. If you have any questions or comments during the stream, don't hesitate to say so!

This will be held on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday nights, starting from around 5:30 to 6:00 PM and continuing until about 8 PM. All times are in Central Daylight Time.

"Watch Me Sprite!" on Picarto (https://picarto.tv/WatchMeSprite1)

About half an hour until I start streaming, guys! Will start at 5:30 PM.

[Pokemon Trainer Sarah]

Good luck Speed! I'll be at work when this is happening, but I'll try and pop in sometime :)

[SassySnivy]

Our second stream will be in just 30 minutes!

Please note, however, that on most nights that I do this--tonight included--I will be at work. I work up at the front desk, so this means I may have to suddenly go afk for short periods of time to answer phones, help people out, and the like.

They're just short little interruptions, usually. I'll let you guys know if it's something bigger. This will also explain why you might hear background noises.

Also remember: feel free to say pretty much anything in the chat! Any discussion topics, questions, etc. It may give us something to talk about.

One more thing: come and go as you please. If you get bored, just leave; don't worry about hurting my feelings! I will completely understand. It can get really boring just to sit and actively watch someone do art. Just make sure to check in every so often to say hi! ;D


Thanks, Sarah!

[SassySnivy]

The art boards are so quiet...

Friday stream will be in 30 minutes!

Nothing has really changed from Wednesday xD Oh! And if you're wanting something like pixel art C+C'ed just let me know and I can do it in-stream.

[SassySnivy]

Starting in 25 minutes, guys! 5:30 PM, now in Central Standard Time instead of Central Daylight. ;o

[SassySnivy]

Starting in 15. ^^

[SassySnivy]

Stream starting in 30!

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

Feeling better than last time. May or may not talk, idk what to really talk about to be honest. I'll be working on more of those little icons. That's all, really.

[SassySnivy]

Stream starting in 30 minutes!

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

I may or may not talk much, it depends on how many people are here. x] I'll probably just play some Pokemon tunes. I'm taking a break on the little icons, though, and doing regular high-resolution sprites. Stop on by! 8D

This is what we worked on / finished in the last stream:

aww darn, I missed one of the ones I was wanting to see. Work sucks ;_;

anyway, made it for tonight's stream at least!

[SassySnivy]

Hello, everyone! I'll be starting the stream a little later again tonight. It will start at 5:45 PM, which is about 25 minutes from now, give or take a few minutes. Here's what we worked on last time:

Join me on Picarto! (https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa)

[SassySnivy]

Sorry for there not being a stream for the past week, guys! My work internet / Wi-Fi has been down for a week, and the days I stream are days I work. So...as you can tell, it doesn't really work out so well! I will start back up as soon as the Wi-Fi is fixed.

[SassySnivy]

Hey, look, I'm back! I got a new computer, became obsessed with Spore again, cut off all communication from people online, but now I'm back to doing art again! I need a little time away every so often...especially now that it's close to Christmas.

I'll be starting my 14th stream in 30 minutes, guys! Feel free to come by. If you forgot how to get there, here's a link:

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

Hope to see everyone there! I lost my music library; it was like 17 gigabytes on my computer. The only way I could have transferred it was through mediafire (and like websites) and through transferring everything to my phone. The former would take three hours and I honestly wanted to get my new laptop set up by that point. The second option wouldn't work either because my phone only has about 15 Gigs left right now.

Eh, my music library was horribly disorganized, anyhow. I'll just redownload everything at some point in time! I found some kick-*** Pokemon remixes / reorchestrations by a Youtuber named Happy Dragonite. Ah, I love his arrangements <33

[SassySnivy]

Sorry, all! I don't have much of an excuse this time besides the fact that I got lazy. I'm going to try to get back on track.

This stream is going to be a little different, though. This time I'm going to do TCG pixel-overs, as you can see in my gallery. I'll be taking suggestions, since I'm doing all this just for fun! You can suggest any Pokemon card, but you MUST include the following information:

Card Name
Card Number
Set (Gym Heroes, Ruby and Sapphire EX, Black and White, XY, etc.)

First come, first serve!

CANNOT be from Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, or Team Rocket; these ones HAVE ALREADY BEEN FINISHED and are in the JP-only game, "Pokemon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!" which is what this style is based off of.

We will start at 6:00 PM (Central Standard Time).

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

[SassySnivy]

Things have been insanely slow lately. I'm going to do a stream tonight at 6 PM (central standard time), probably going to do more high-resolution sprites since I dunno what else I want to do. So yeah! Stick around for that.

I need to update my gallery thread. X_x

[SassySnivy]

Going to try to get back to a regular schedule, now! Stream will be starting in 15 minutes. Will be working on high-resolution sprites again.

This is what I finished last time around.

[SassySnivy]

We had a really awesome night last night! A whole bunch of people from the Pokemon Cinder & Foam Skype chat came by. I really appreciate any and all views I get. c: Same thing as last night: High-Res sprites! This is what we finished last night:

Starting in 30 minutes, at 6pm!

[SassySnivy]

(pffth, I feel bad for feeling like I'm spamming this board with these updates xD )

19 streams and still strong!

Last week wasn't quite as active as Tuesday. That's okay! There are busy days, and there are quiet days.

The next stream will be at 6:00 PM, CST! :D Make sure to at least stop by to say hi. As much as I would love to show off the ONE assignment I've been given so far for Cinder and Foam, sadly I cannot. > w > Hehe. So I'll be working on more high-resolution sprites! Following my recent pattern, I'll be working on Zebstrika's front sprite, next. I haven't really been using my mic as of late because I'd rather play music and don't have a whole lot to say; plus, typing is just easier in this case.

Here's what was made and finished on Wednesday. :D

[SassySnivy]

Hey all! So tonight I've decided that I want to start the stream a little earlier than per the norm. Tonight, we'll be starting at 5:30 PM: a whole 30 minutes ahead of time! 8D I've been working on stuff for CF a lot lately, so tonight I'm going to be working on berry tag sprites.

As for what was finished last time around:

[SassySnivy]

So again, since last night was a bunch of fun, I decided that I'd go ahead and start at 5:30 instead of 6. Might not get the same crowd as last night, but still worth a shot! I'll be starting again tonight at 5:30. Make sure to stop by! I'll be working on the next few berries. Here's what I worked on last night; however, I can't show it to you in full quality! You'll have to find out how they look when the Pokemon Cinder and Foam Demo is released. ;) Plus I don't want any other sneaky gamedevs taking our assets. *coughgeneration0cough*

[SassySnivy]

Wow! Stream 22. I know that listing them by "episodes" sounds kinda lame, but...to be honest, that's the best I can come up with. xD

I had an impromptu stream yesterday during the day, but that was really only just for kicks.

I'll be starting at 6 tonight. Since the last stream, I've finished all of the berries (the first two sets)!
So I may be preoccupying myself with more berries, or I'll do something else. Depends on if I've been assigned anything in CF, hahah.

Make sure to stop by! :D

[SassySnivy]

Man I feel so bad spamming up this section like this T_T

Well, Friday's stream went really well! There was a lot of activity...which was both good, and...not so good. We had a bit of a stir-up in the chat, which prompted me to set up a couple of basic chat rules that I thought should be common sense.

Mainly, just don't be starting **** in the chat. And don't be prolonging it, either. It's one thing to have friendly / civil debates in the chat, but when **** starts flying...that's when we have a problem.

The participating parties in said flamefest will be given one warning, then if they do it again, it'll be a kick.

Tonight I'll probably be working on more berries. I've gotten up to Pinap now! Stream starts at 6:00 PM, central standard. It'll end at 8:00 PM.

[SassySnivy]

Hey again everyone! Stream tonight starts at 5:30. Just a quick note that I'm going to have to leave at 7:30 this time around. Stupid at-work in-service.

I'll probably be working on more berries!

Stream time: 5:30 to 7:30 PM, CST

[SassySnivy]

Yesterday was pretty fun! Been getting bored of berry sprites so taking a break from those for a while. I'm not sure what I'll be doing tonight, I guess just whatever I'm feeling like! :D

Starting at 6:00 PM, CST! <3

[SassySnivy]

I've not been in the mood to pixel lately. I've more so been wanting to draw. So just a heads-up, I may very likely work on my Axibian reference sheet. xD

Just for reference, Axibians are an ermehgerd originuhl speshees that I just recently came up with. If you want to find out some info about 'em, look here. (http://speedxaaa.deviantart.com/art/Axibian-concept-sketches-589662922) Or just check the thread!

[SassySnivy]

Tonight will just be more Axibian stuff. Got a bit of a late start, though.

[SassySnivy]

Starting at 5:30! More Axibian stuff, possibly hi-res stuff since I'm getting tired of Axibians and want to take a bit of a break.

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

[Suicune's Fire]

I'M GONNA WATCH IT THIS TIME. I've never really known when you do it (or been unavailable...timezones!) but I'm tuning in this time. xD

[SassySnivy]

You guys need to come on tonight again that was a lot of fun last night! 8D

Starting at 5:30! More Axibian stuff, possibly hi-res stuff too. I said that last night but never got to it. I guess we'll just see!

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

[Chibi Altaria]

I WILL COME. If work is quiet again lawls. C:

[SassySnivy]

Starting at 5:30! More Axibian stuff! I'll be working on the real deals instead of the bases.
Lunar Latias Chakramaster Suicune's Fire

Just tagging you guys in case you're interested!

[Chakramaster]

lol it's funny I actually just pulled up the page (since I have it bookmarked now). I finally remembered the days you stream (more like I checked the first page out of curiosity xD).

Excited to see more either way =D

[SassySnivy]

Geh, sorry, I totally lost track of time! o A o I'll be starting at 5:45 this time! More Axibians, because I cannot get enough of them. Making art for ones that I want to try to auction off! 8D

picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

It feels like so long since the previous stream. xD

[Chakramaster]

I'm so late as well ;_; I'll stop by if you're still streaming when I get back home

[SassySnivy]

Starting at 5:45 PM again! Reminder that I have an Axibian I'm auctioning!

[SassySnivy]

Thanks guys. Yeah, I'm just gonna keep trying. I have the finished ones posted up, too! But oh, wait, I can't access them? Why's that?

...I won't get into it, but long story short the automatic web filter at work blocked DeviantART. BLOCKED. DEVIANTART. I've had enough of this, I'm taking this to the HR manager after the weekend. Left her two voicemails already. So yeah, just check my DeviantART page I guess. :\ Still having that stream tonight though, at about 5:30.

Oh, and did I mention this is GUEST Wi-Fi? Though the block log listed me as logged in under nursing. Yeah, that's definitely a ****-up and needs to be fixed ASAP. But anyway, yeah, Pineapple and Peach are up for grabs now! :D Working on 3 new bases tonight

Sorry for the short notice! Starting right around now

[Chibi Altaria]

Sorry for the short notice! Starting right around now

SORRY I DIDN'T MAKE IT. </3

I was out yesterday at a family party, being Saturday and all. 3:

[SassySnivy]

No worries! Starting at 6:00 PM tonight!

[Chakramaster]

I'm once again back on my poor broken laptop D=....so if I randomly dc a lot you'll know it's because it can barely keep a connection at times...but I'll be there to watch for awhile at least! =D

[Chibi Altaria]

I so missed this because work suddenly got busy. 3:

[SassySnivy]

Pffth it's nothing to worry about xD

I don't usually do streams on Sunday, but tonight is an exception!

I'm going to animate Oshawott's BW Hi-Res sprites and want to show you guys how I do that!
https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

[Chakramaster]

Nooooo I missed it! Why did I have to work late shift tonight =(

Guess I'll have to see you animate one another night lol

[SassySnivy]

Starting at 6 PM tonight! Doing hi-res stuff.

[Chakramaster]

Depending on how late you stream I may join =3 lot of things I had to run around and do today. I'll be sure to join the stream if you're still going in the next hour or so

[SassySnivy]

thanks for coming last night! I'm gonna start at 6 pm tonight again.

[Chakramaster]

Assuming everything goes well here talking to Amazon about my laptop I'll be on time tonight (literally on the phone right now lol). So I'll be on to watch tonight either way! =D. Might have an interesting story to tell as well xD

[Chibi Altaria]

I SAW THIS NOW, YUSH. I will be there. ;3

[SassySnivy]

Sorry about the lack of streaming lately! Been wanting to work on other things. I'm starting tonight at 5:30, Central DAYLIGHT Time.

[SassySnivy]

Very sorry for the lack of stream lately. SV has consumed my life.

I don't have a lot to do today, mostly just goofing off with coloring and animation. That being said, I may most likely play SV later in the stream. x]

https://picarto.tv/SpeedXaaa

Starting in 10 min, at 6 PM CDT

[SassySnivy]

Starting at 6 again! Lunar Latias Chakramaster
tagging my regulars xD

[SassySnivy]

Streaming at 6PM again. In 1 hour.

I honestly haven't updated my journal in weeks on DA about this stream because I don't want to have to turn this limited VPN on EVERY time I want to go on DA and then forget to turn it off. >_> Stupid. Internet. Filter.
Lunar Latias Chakramaster

Tagging my regulars, lol

[Chibi Altaria]

Speed-X Charka's got work but I'll be there. :D I almost forgot cause Daylight Savings Time ended on Sunday and now your 6pm is my 9am lulz. SO EARLY.

[SassySnivy]

Hahah, well I'm only mentioning you guys so you don't forget, assuming you're available!

Btw I'm going to probably be working on editing the Smogon Vivillon sprites for each Vivillon pattern. For Pokemon Prism.

[SassySnivy]

Stream at 6 again. I dunno what I'll be doing this time around. Maybe Pokemon Prism recolors. Maybe Pokemon crossbreeds.

[Trainer17]

I wish I can join you for some of the stream sessions Sarah. But my timezone...:( Lovely work!!

Hey, Sarah, what happened to your streaming? I miss it. ;n; Did you get addicted to games again?

[SassySnivy]

Eh, I dunno tbh. xD It's just been a hassle. I've been so focused on other things like PP that I guess I haven't even thought about my streams in a while! D: Plus I never feel like I have anything interesting to stream. ;-;

T^T I understand. It's fine, although I just wanted to let you know you have viewer's who are interested. xD
