Lengthy chat on my discord where I was giving what little writing advice I'm qualified to give. But I think this is going to be at least in 3 parts...

Roght. Havent mentioned I've an artists alley table. Tshirts will be going extra cheap, original pages of Peter is the Wolf (11x14s) will be for sale, and of course, taking commissions.

Or should I open up some B&W ink commissions online?

Upgrade: at Heroism Reviews Alpha

Jordan Peeleused the horror genre to illustrate the anxieties of black men in 2017's Get Out. This year, Leigh Whannell does uses the Cyberpunk & Film Noir genres to similar effect in Upgrade. Both are Blumhouse releases...

Don't forget! Cirsova: HerroicFantasy & Science Fiction Magazine issue #8 (cover by yours truly!) is now available from Amazon!

I'll be updating this as the weekend goes on. But this feels weird, being the first out of state convention in years where I don't have a table, ain't looking for work. Is tjis what a vacation feels like?

So far been to a school & a prison. I mean, actual prison. Prison where the filmed Shawshank.

Reminder that yeah, each art account I have features completely different work.

And a magazine I did a cover for will be taking orders for the softcover soon.

Somewhat less furry, so I put it up on my dA. "The Brave & the koBold" https://bar1scorpio.deviantart.com/.....Bold-742749867

It's just a little commission that I... kobold together.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson may have the lock on playing the classic Pulp hero.

TL;DR version, Go see this damned film. It washed the foul taste of Both Tomb Raider & Pacific Rim: Uprising out of my mouth.

That is all.

An overview of my gripes coming out of this film.
If #GuillermoDelToro's #PacificRim was a love letter to the Kaiju film genre, #PacificRimUprising is a form letter.

I really didn't want to bother with Wes Anderson's weird animation style, but I may have to look at Isle of Dogs just to see something *different* looking. Something without a cookie cutter story nor a borrowed visual palette.

Maybe reviewers would have been more forgiving of this film if Bruce Willis had sex with a fish.
I'll actually add more at work.

And then a pair of Steemit posts- one of an odd thoght that bubbled up into my mind listening to a review of 50 Shades Darker: Christian Grey - Alpha Bitch
https://steemit.com/fiftyshades/@ba.....ey-alpha-bitch

and the second - 4th post in my Heroism Reviews Alpha series, on PureFlix' Samson

...Killmonger is literally a Zealot, as in, "Simon the". As much as Simon is portrayed as a vengeful fanatic, desiring Jesus to preach discord against the Romans in Jesus Christ Superstar, Killmonger seeks to send Wakanda out into the world to take revenge on "the Colonizers'; to bend the world to serve those whom he sees as his people...

So,  Kaeto1 is having a passel of car troubles - and could use some help, and every little bit helps. https://www.gofundme.com/96qqc-help-me-fix-my-car

To that- I've been wanting to play with more silhouettes, in the vein of Arthur Rakham:

http://www.johncoulthart.com/feuill.....m-silhouettes/

A while back, Kevin had me experiment with Rakham-style silhouettes for Palladium Books' Bizantium & the Northern Isles. And you can see the examples on my DeviantArt Here: https://bar1scorpio.deviantart.com/.....oast-524271169 Here:https://bar1scorpio.deviantart.com/.....Seal-528097162 & Here: https://bar1scorpio.deviantart.com/.....ilor-527173397 I'd like to splash in that pond again, so-

I'll open up 10 Slots for $10 each. 8x10 image area & .tif file, up to 3 full figures, as I attempt to imitate the style of one of the great illustrators.

Blog on the topic of the must-see Mazinger Z: Infinity
But seriously, you've got 1 more day to see it at Fathom Events. Live in theaters. And it is worth it.

I'll be stripping my PhotoBucket from my descriptions, that thing seems set on f'ing me over on doing 3rd party sharing or whatever. So I'm adding an IMGUR account (bar1scorpio, duh) https://imgur.com/user/bar1scorpio

Mainly up here will be dumps of waste photos. I'm big into carnival rides, halloween, etc, so pics of that stuff and other stupid projects will be going up there, I figure.

Also! I'm going to start toying around with Steemit - which is- blockchain enabled blogging, right now kind of becoming popular in its beta phase with writers (look for the SteemPulp groups.) https://steemit.com/@bar1scorpio

Also monetizing my Minds. Though not sure what I'll do with that other than update copy-pasta posts from my art galleries up there. But even the ability to click like and wire or tip money there already puts it head & shoulders above Tumblr, the worst site on the interwebs.

Then there's Maker Support, a Patreon alternative that I"m also toying around with, it looks like this one also has a "tip jar" feature to allow for 1-time donations. https://www.makersupport.com/bar1scorpio


I'm also on Discord, playing around a bit on there with a spot to ramble and post WIPs

Should I do:
Color Chibis in kinky outft (cheerleader, nurse, maid, etc)??
YCH orgy or strip club?
Adoptable OCs?

Yes, I am committed to finishing Drawlloween this year, like every year (But oy, them delays)

I'm also trying to get inside a deadline for Rifts:Sovietski (A raw version fo the book was sold earlier this year, theys're still in editing & they wanted me to do some spot illose of blasters, which is pretty much threw a monkey wrench into the schedule this year.

Nah, I won't be at MFF, just too much going on on the home front to try to make my way out there for their Artists Alley.

Kenneka L. Jenkins, 19, was found dead inside an industrial walk-in freezer at Rosemont’s Crowne Plaza around midnight Sunday, more than 24 hours after leaving her home on Chicago’s West Side to party with friends at the hotel and conference center near O’Hare International Airport.

Details are sketchy, but emerging, and pretty damned random. Even if she was just drunk and wandered the hotel until she made her way into that freezer, she and her friends were too damn young to be drinking. And now rumors are flying about that her friends set her up.

It just- feels odd to process that not only do these places exist even when we're not there, but that some incredibly unsavory things go down there even when we are...
