Shakiah Tachi's Art

[Disciple]

I love the photo manipulation you have up on the new account. Excellently done. I was impressed by how little it stuck out as being added on, since most scar tissue is an obvious addition.

 

[Shakiah Tachi]

Thank you so much. The scar was actually the easy part. All I did was use the dodge/burn tool. This gives it that sickly look while keeping the texture(s) of the face. I'm looking to do some more photo manipulations. As long as I have a picture to go off of for the actual character I can do pretty much anything.

Disney is a pretty boss company. Spent my last summer working for them as a lifeguard lol.

Disney is bad, and you should feel bad!

 

[Halik Falkosi]

Dude, you crazy

 

[Shakiah Tachi]

Disney now owns LucasArts... And Yeah. XD

So it was fun to work for them there?

 

[Halik Falkosi]

Yes, they were good people. Good business. They take care of people.

 

[Soeht]

Big company, so they definitely provide decent pay for jobs, especially if it's a job that demands talent and skill.

 

[Halik Falkosi]

Aye... shoot even the non-talents jobs get paid well. I made two dollars over minimum as a lifeguard for "hazard pay." I watched people swim by in a lazy river... OH the hazards lol.

 

[Shakiah Tachi]

Wow, so maybe that is the best bet then. I always have heard good things about them. Despite a lot of people hating Disney, I think it would be a good place to work. I think I was told I'd have to do an internship down there for a while, I believe.

 

[Halik Falkosi]

I don't know about that cause I wasn't a part of that part of the company so I have no frame of reference on how that side works.

And a lot of people hate Disney for silly reasons why also loving a lot of the stuff they produce. It is rather sily.

 

[Shakiah Tachi]

I know that there was someone at my college who was looking at working for Disney and I know they went down there and did a internship. So, I'm not sure myself. I was looking online n' such. I also love acting, so I thought if I had to work for them some other way, doing costumes and characters was an idea.

Indeed, it is silly. They do have some crap stuff, but not all of it is bad. ^^

 

[Stormtrooper]

Look, I have my reasons for hating Disney, and they are perfectly legit reasons.

 

[Halik Falkosi]

The vast majority of what Disney does is of a high quality. The only real blot is the decline of their live action television shows. Yeah they have some movie misses but given the vast majority of movie hits, I can't really be persuaded to hold that against them.

There is a college program that people frequently do, that might be what the person did. Basically, they come in, get housed, and have a job on property doing whatever. Jobs range in anything from lifeguarding, children's activities, food, to more serious things. Just depends on what you have to offer. I don't think it is required to get a job there but I think it is one of those deals where it certainly helps. But they can't really expect everyone to have wanted to take a semester off to work there before moving onto the real world.

I'm not a huge Disney apologist, Sslokt. I know people that have had bad experiences. But as a company, I just can't find a real reason to fault them. They just do too much good lol.

Shakiah, I must say, your artwork is phenomenal. =)​

 

[Shakiah Tachi]

Thank you Isley! Much appreciated!

Halik, thank you for shedding some light on the Disney topic. ^.^

 

[Halik Falkosi]

No worries!

 

[Tefka]

Look, I have my reasons for hating Disney, and they are perfectly legit reasons.

Someone got kicked out of Disney World.

 

[Halik Falkosi]

Hahahah

 

[Shakiah Tachi]

I have some new stuff I'm working on, I'm hoping to put it up soon.
