HURRAAAAAAAY, I'M NOT DEAD!
Posted 12 years agoMkay. Been ... an insane, painful, and manic couple of months. October was the worst, but that whole mess is over and done with. I'm back. I've cranked out two inkworks and a few other separate sketches. I'm returning to getting shit done that I've obligated myself to you, whom have waited for it.
I'll get into (if I have the patience. XP) the details of how batshit my job has been, on top of life in general, later. But for now, *bows deeply* Thank you for your patience, all. I'll be getting back to my individual commissioners via FA note tonight and tomorrow to see if I cant get back to gettin' back on track with everyone.
I've been up all night working. For now, I'm going to lie down and get a dose of rest. I'll catch you bunch, later. Have a great day. :3

Commissions open!: Weekend arting spree!
Posted 12 years agoGot a few slots I can fill for this upcoming weekend. Lookin' to raise about 200$ (more if I can manage it) to send back home while I'm on the road working, solo. New contract, moved out to the KY/TN region, had to leave my Kitten behind for a bit. Sadfaec. :C
Needless to say before I get my first paycheck in a few weeks, bringing in all the dosh for money for the house is priority. Ergo, artin' for dollars, for a bit.
And no, I'm not forgetting people I've done startup work for. Cebelius, Resine, Solei. Yours are on the list this week and weekend to be continued and worked on. :3
PRICING!
20$: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10337917/
30$: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10355413/
40$: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10396030/ (would be done digitally, so never mind the sketchy feel and scan coloration. :p)
50$: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10344396/ Keep in mind, the sword there would be finished. I just kinda sketched it in for effect. :p
60$: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10345883/ and http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10502618/ for an example of a badge-style coloration.
80$: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10260615/ Woof. Details! XD
Got a few rules! Not many, but they are important!
First, I need a ref sheet. A pose suggestion would be good, but I can whip up something on the fly if you don't have any ideas.
Second, if you don't have a ref sheet, a succinct description will work.
3'd: Elaborating on the whole emphasis of succinct, NO ESSAY-LENGTH BIOGRAPHIES. I'm working to send money home to someone with no cash and a dwindling food supply, so keep it brief, please.
4th, I work all up-front. Tck6206[at]gmail.com to be sent to my PayPal.
5th. I dont do more than a few small edits, and I dont tolerate over-the-shoulder directing or new suggestions of edits during the process of creation. If you don't like what I've done for you by the end, you didn't trust me enough to do it right the first time.
6th: On the off chance that I did somehow botch a large and glaring detail that requires major revision, I will take the time to fix the error but will likely have to do it during the week.
Work done will be aimed to finish before the weekend concludes, but I have time to work over the week if there is overflow for my plans of getting work done. Just about all of the work done this weekend will be streamed starring tomorrow, so you can track progress of what's being done. Same with possible work during the week. I will announce each stream in a journal, here. And to boot, I also have a decent laptop again to Livestream from, so no more 10-person room cap ala join.me and I can use a mic! Huzzah! :D
To wrap up, I was not joking when I said I'm working to send cash home to provide for food. I hate like hell to admit it, but I'm scraping for dollars out here on my own, as well, on this new contract. Things should stabilize over the next 3 weeks, but right now even just donations would be appreciated. I'm a prideful sonnovabitch, but not so much to not admit it when I and mine might need some help. >.<

Anyone around Boston going to AC?
Posted 12 years agoI and
caranthirlinwelin are fixin' to go, but arent decided on by SUV or by plane.
If anyone is around the area who wants to meet up with us (or is on the way), is willing to share drive time and gas costs, we'd consider a 3'd (and maybe a 4th) person to pack in and head out and back from the con.
We'd be leaving (ideally) Wednesday night or July 4th, early morning. Kinda depends when work lets us out on Wednesday night.
We SHOULD be heading back from the con some time Sunday, likely around noon. Bummer we cant stay for the dead dog stuff and after-con parties, but ay, work calls on Monday. :p

Fitness, diet, and exercise. Have some know-how!
Posted 12 years agoMind you, most of this not only incomplete, but the intent is for slimming and toning. The same basic principles apply if you're trying to go into bodybuilding or weight lifting, but you go for keeping your daily calorie count around nearly 5000 calories and more than your body weight in grams of protein, daily. But since I'm fixin' to shed the winter fluff for AC this summer, figured I'd lend a hand to anyone else lookin' to get on the right track to a fitter, leaner self.
First off, lemme get this outta the way:
NEVER.
EVER.
DRINK.
SODA.
Especially American soda. Its all needless sugars that most people generally dont use, but American soda doesnt have SUGAR in it so much as HFCS. High fructose corn syrup is arguably worse for you than smoking daily. And YES, I know that sounds fucked up, but take it from someone who just recently quit smoking for years; I felt better being athletic and puffin' a few jacks a day than bein' chubby and NOT smoking.
If you drink non-diet sodas and you're displeased with your waistline, PUT THAT SHIT DOWN RIGHT THE FUCK NOW. Part of the reason its as bad for you as it is is that it tricks your body into thinking you're starving and flips your metabolism into store-everything-as-fat mode for about 3-5 hours after you've introduced it into your system. It also tricks you into thinking you're not as full as you are, which makes you eat and drink MORE.
Seriously, if you need something tasty to drink, get yourself some Crystal Light. You'll thank me.
And on that same point, ALWAYS check the ingredients list of everything you buy. If its got HFCS in there, dont even bother buying it, ever again.
*clears throat* Kay, now that that's addressed, MOVING ON! 8D
A few basics!:
One, never skip breakfast. Ever. If I can advise ANYTHING more powerfully than any other bit of advice without a moments hesitation, tis this. Namely, because if you skip eating something within 2 hours of getting up, your body treats ANY meal you have after that time frame as you starving; what you even so much as snack on IMMEDIATELY gets stored as fat, since you've just convinced your metabolism that it can never be sure when its getting its next meal. Yes, YOU know when you're going to eat next, but the concious you and the base, chemical you are two different entities in this case; You NEED to remind your baser self that its not starving, and all is well. Never. Ever. Skip. Breakfast.
Second, Breakfast is always touted to be the most important meal in the day since a hearty breakfast is supposed to amp up your metabolism. This is true, but DO NOT confuse this for what is traditionally known to be a "farmer's breakfast". Where most of those folk put a 3k+ calorie meal to USE during the day being farm hands (and burn well over 10k calories before LUNCH), most of us sit on our asses for a living. You dont need anything big, just a small protein-rich snack within 2 hours of getting up. You dont need to exceed even 300 calories, as long as you're eating SOMETHING that's got about 10-15g of protein.
3'd, calculate your lean body mass. Any gym worth its salt will be able to get you a body mass index measurement (usually for free), which calculates lean body mass and fat percentages. Once you have that number, you will want to have no less but no more than HALF your lean body weight in grams of protein per day, every day. This is for trimming down. If you, say, went the powerlifting route, you'd amp that up to WELL over your total body weight in grams of protein per day, but thats neither hither nor thither. Just something to keep aware of.
Once you have your lean body mass and your ideal grams-per-day protein intake calculated, its a numbers game. Keep your calorie count to less than 1200 per day, thereabouts.
You should eat 5-6 times per day. The whole "3 square meals" shit goes right out the window, and is actually one of the reasons our culture is as obese as it is. After breakfast, snack (I mean it when I say SNACK. Not meals. Snacks, to the tune of no more than 300 calories a pop. Optimally, 200.) about every 2-3 hours. This is effective at keepign you slim because its how we're wired to eat; we've been hunting and gathering for THOUSANDS of years, and readilly-available pre-prepared food is only a very recent development in our biological history as a species. We ate what we found as we found it on the move. Things didnt keep long before the advent of the refrigerator, so what was on hand got 'et.
Ergo, our bodies are wired to be reminded we arent starving about every 2-3 hours. Any longer than that and you'll be convincing your system you're starving, even if you dont feel hunger pangs.
If you're leaning out, stay away from carbs and sugars. Those are nutrients that are designed to be used IMMEDIATELY as they're avialable in your blood stream, or at least within 3 hours of you eating. After that, it gets stored as fat, which is why so many people balloon up on fast-food; all those carbs and sugars have nowhere to go unless you're running a small marathon afterward.
Keep in mind that COMPLETELY EXCISING Carbs and sugars from your diet is beneficial for fat loss, but only in the short term. And by short-term, I mean only going that route for 3 weeks. Tops.
eliminating carbs and sugars from your diet puts you into ketosis, which is a state in which your body focuses on energy production by burning fat reserves rather than taking sugars from the blood stream (which its naturally programmed to do as a matter of preference; use the blood fuel sources rather than the "backup/reserves" that are the fat deposits). It does this, because after 4-7 days of no carbs and sugars being eaten, it doesnt HAVE any energy to take from the bloodstream.
Ketosis is a great state to be in for a short while; its GREAT for getting a solid push towards your goal waistline, but it has a serious drawback. It makes your blood slightly acidic.
This is a problem for EVERYTHING YOUR CIRCULATORY SYSTEM TOUCHES. Organs, joints, everything is affected by this. Inlcuding your brain, which will experience notable drops in processing speed as your brain cells, well... die. Slowly. o.o
A few short weeks of this yield no problems. 2-3 weeks of being off the sugars and carbs will yield good results, have a bite of a bagel, ketosis goes away and your PH levels in your blood reset. Even if you have NOTHING carb or sugar related for 4 days, you're still good; it takes that long to reset your body back into ketosis.
Best option is to keep at lest SOME carbs in your diet, daily. Less than 50g of carbs per day is about perfect; it keeps you from going insane whilst still being low on the calorie side of things.
Foods to keep on hand:
Lean meat and cheese. 3 slices of deli meat and one slice of cheese is about perfect for a 3-hour snack, less slices if you're trying to lean down hardcore. Mustard has no caloric value, generally. its also very very good. :9
Almonds (palmfull of about 6-10 every hour or two) have a specific chemical in them that tell your body that not only are you full, but you're in no danger of starving. Thus, your metabolism runs high.
Red wine and olive oil vinnegar dressing on salads. Same effect as almonds, much more potent for fat burning. T's why people who live in Italy eat a starch-heavy diet and still stay more thin than their other American counterparts. Even having a shot of olive oil and a half-serving of wine in the morning is a VERY good way to crank up your fat-burning just gettin' outta bed.
Nevermind that it tastes horrible. You will NEVER be regarding eating for pleasure a viable option, again. Get used to it. I reccomend a chaser shot of something like Crystal Light Lemonade or the like.
Further, if you're looking for the maximum benefit to having a high metabolism during the day, IN ADDITION to spending the least time working out, you will want to do high-intensity burst exercises. P90X, Insanity, fartlek sprints, so on. Even a fast-paced cardio aerobics video will do the trick. All of these you can do in your home (I have downloaded vids of Insanity and p90x if you want them) , so it saves you time ever having to leave to go to the gym. Even if you DO have the time, they're also great for taking with you on a laptop and doing in the aerobics room.
The trick with the high-intensity training is that its the highest-output for calorie burning in the shortest amount of time, yes; but doing them in the morning SOON as you get up is paramount; your metabolism will remain high until you sleep again. The trick, being that you have to be ironclad about getting up and doing it in the morning, every day. Not easy, especially considering how exhausting it can be. x_x
Another great thing to do is get a good book series on your phone and read while you're on the elliptical machine. I've melted inches off just soaking in book after book for hours at a clip, sweatin' my balls off just a-spinnin' away!
ANother similar trick is getting a recumbent (sitting-down 'chair style') bicycle and setting it up in your house next to your TV; I have lost track of the hours I've played R-Type Final, spinning my middle away. I also reccomend getting R-Type Final, in general! 8D
And lastly, I have a final trick for you, but I'll warn you that its not for the faint of heart.
One of the keys to fat burning is maximizing your testosterone levels. Obviously suplements help (do them only for a month at a time with a month's break between each session; you keep doing supplements to amp your test levels, your body will learn to NOT bother making its own testosterone, period. You'll chemically castrate yourself. x_x), but there's a way you can do it naturally, POWERFULLY. Like, to the tune of 3x the average man's daily testosterone levels.
Wake up.
Chug a liter of ice water.
Go to the shower.
Turn on the water to cold. ICE cold as you can get it.
Step in.
Stay there.
For 15 minutes.
.,..
Yeeeeeeah. Its not fun in the slightest, like I'd said. x_x
When your core is chilled, your body compensates by heating itself, which burns energy. SHOCKING your body with such dramatic interior and exterior temperature drops cranks your metabolism into overdrive, trying to heat your system and battle the chills with crazy-ass shivvers. It hurts, but I'll be buggered if there's ANYTHING that gets your test levels that high, naturally, even aside from intense morning exercise!
Its funny, though; You may be amping up your natural testosterone levels, but good luck finding your balls when you're done! YOu might find them trying to turn into ovaries again, somewhere up in your pelvis. xD
This'll be a good starting point. I'll be updating this journal more frequently to include things like exercise plans and other useful tools.
But before that even happens, take a look-see at www.bodybuilding.com . They have everything from workout plans to exercise vids, lots of good stuff. I'll elaborate on my own methods, later. :3

This is effective at keepign you slim because its how we're wired to eat; we've been hunting and gathering for THOUSANDS of years, and readilly-available pre-prepared food is only a very recent development in our biological history as a species. We ate what we found as we found it on the move. Things didnt keep long before the advent of the refrigerator, so what was on hand got 'et.
Ergo, our bodies are wired to be reminded we arent starving about every 2-3 hours. Any longer than that and you'll be convincing your system you're starving, even if you dont feel hunger pangs.
If you're leaning out, stay away from carbs and sugars. Those are nutrients that are designed to be used IMMEDIATELY as they're avialable in your blood stream, or at least within 3 hours of you eating. After that, it gets stored as fat, which is why so many people balloon up on fast-food; all those carbs and sugars have nowhere to go unless you're running a small marathon afterward.
Keep in mind that COMPLETELY EXCISING Carbs and sugars from your diet is beneficial for fat loss, but only in the short term. And by short-term, I mean only going that route for 3 weeks. Tops.
eliminating carbs and sugars from your diet puts you into ketosis, which is a state in which your body focuses on energy production by burning fat reserves rather than taking sugars from the blood stream (which its naturally programmed to do as a matter of preference; use the blood fuel sources rather than the "backup/reserves" that are the fat deposits). It does this, because after 4-7 days of no carbs and sugars being eaten, it doesnt HAVE any energy to take from the bloodstream.
Ketosis is a great state to be in for a short while; its GREAT for getting a solid push towards your goal waistline, but it has a serious drawback. It makes your blood slightly acidic.
This is a problem for EVERYTHING YOUR CIRCULATORY SYSTEM TOUCHES. Organs, joints, everything is affected by this. Inlcuding your brain, which will experience notable drops in processing speed as your brain cells, well... die. Slowly. o.o
A few short weeks of this yield no problems. 2-3 weeks of being off the sugars and carbs will yield good results, have a bite of a bagel, ketosis goes away and your PH levels in your blood reset. Even if you have NOTHING carb or sugar related for 4 days, you're still good; it takes that long to reset your body back into ketosis.
Best option is to keep at lest SOME carbs in your diet, daily. Less than 50g of carbs per day is about perfect; it keeps you from going insane whilst still being low on the calorie side of things.
Foods to keep on hand:
Lean meat and cheese. 3 slices of deli meat and one slice of cheese is about perfect for a 3-hour snack, less slices if you're trying to lean down hardcore. Mustard has no caloric value, generally. its also very very good. :9
Almonds (palmfull of about 6-10 every hour or two) have a specific chemical in them that tell your body that not only are you full, but you're in no danger of starving. Thus, your metabolism runs high.
Red wine and olive oil vinnegar dressing on salads. Same effect as almonds, much more potent for fat burning. T's why people who live in Italy eat a starch-heavy diet and still stay more thin than their other American counterparts. Even having a shot of olive oil and a half-serving of wine in the morning is a VERY good way to crank up your fat-burning just gettin' outta bed.
Nevermind that it tastes horrible. You will NEVER be regarding eating for pleasure a viable option, again. Get used to it. I reccomend a chaser shot of something like Crystal Light Lemonade or the like.
Further, if you're looking for the maximum benefit to having a high metabolism during the day, IN ADDITION to spending the least time working out, you will want to do high-intensity burst exercises. P90X, Insanity, fartlek sprints, so on. Even a fast-paced cardio aerobics video will do the trick. All of these you can do in your home (I have downloaded vids of Insanity and p90x if you want them) , so it saves you time ever having to leave to go to the gym. Even if you DO have the time, they're also great for taking with you on a laptop and doing in the aerobics room.
The trick with the high-intensity training is that its the highest-output for calorie burning in the shortest amount of time, yes; but doing them in the morning SOON as you get up is paramount; your metabolism will remain high until you sleep again. The trick, being that you have to be ironclad about getting up and doing it in the morning, every day. Not easy, especially considering how exhausting it can be. x_x
Another great thing to do is get a good book series on your phone and read while you're on the elliptical machine. I've melted inches off just soaking in book after book for hours at a clip, sweatin' my balls off just a-spinnin' away!
ANother similar trick is getting a recumbent (sitting-down 'chair style') bicycle and setting it up in your house next to your TV; I have lost track of the hours I've played R-Type Final, spinning my middle away. I also reccomend getting R-Type Final, in general! 8D
And lastly, I have a final trick for you, but I'll warn you that its not for the faint of heart.
One of the keys to fat burning is maximizing your testosterone levels. Obviously suplements help (do them only for a month at a time with a month's break between each session; you keep doing supplements to amp your test levels, your body will learn to NOT bother making its own testosterone, period. You'll chemically castrate yourself. x_x), but there's a way you can do it naturally, POWERFULLY. Like, to the tune of 3x the average man's daily testosterone levels.
Wake up.
Chug a liter of ice water.
Go to the shower.
Turn on the water to cold. ICE cold as you can get it.
Step in.
Stay there.
For 15 minutes.
.,..
Yeeeeeeah. Its not fun in the slightest, like I'd said. x_x
When your core is chilled, your body compensates by heating itself, which burns energy. SHOCKING your body with such dramatic interior and exterior temperature drops cranks your metabolism into overdrive, trying to heat your system and battle the chills with crazy-ass shivvers. It hurts, but I'll be buggered if there's ANYTHING that gets your test levels that high, naturally, even aside from intense morning exercise!
Its funny, though; You may be amping up your natural testosterone levels, but good luck finding your balls when you're done! YOu might find them trying to turn into ovaries again, somewhere up in your pelvis. xD
This'll be a good starting point. I'll be updating this journal more frequently to include things like exercise plans and other useful tools.
But before that even happens, take a look-see at www.bodybuilding.com . They have everything from workout plans to exercise vids, lots of good stuff. I'll elaborate on my own methods, later. :3
CIAO!

Eats danger, shits bullets, DEVOURS WEIGHT LIFTERS. >8E
Posted 12 years agoI've got some bad news for those of you who think you're hot shit at the gym. I've started doing P90X and Insanity with a total of 40 extra pounds in limb and vest weights.
YES, it is hands-down the most physically demolishing thing I've yet done, but Ay, you dont get results unless you start lookin' at the fucker in the mirror as a challenge who needs to get his ass beat before he gets hard as nails.
Lookin' forward to the results. We'll see what happens, come this AC.
-Beo
PS:
GET SOME. >8D

Posted 12 years ago*growls in hungry anticipation* Mmmm!.... Yes, soon now...
Posted 12 years agoVery soon... I'll be back in the digital arting scene. Gettin' a spankin' new bigdamn Cintiq 21 early next week. >8D
Depending on how talks continue with a most excellent certain mysterious someone, I might also divulge on some of the artistic surprises we've got up our sleeve... But in the least, some honkin' huge surprises are in store, just around the corner. I'll be mum about that for now, though... <3
I CAN however happily declare that soon after I get my new drawing monitor that I have a LARGE number of pieces I've sketched over the past months .... Okay, well not SKETCHED, per-se... I'unno, I've found out the hard way that any sketch I crank out even for practice turns out to be something I just lock-focus on until it looks like a not-practice-piece. At least it means that even if I don't crank things out fast, almost everything I've started looks pretty close to finished, even in pencil. So in that sense, alot of the stuff I've worked on IRL is at least mostly fleshed out. A number of which are ready immediately for coloring, so nothin' but win, there! 8D
So, lots of the usual is just around the corner. MOSTLY copious amounts of girlyfag/beefcake/cheesecake/bondage/rape/etc. But in an odd turnabout, I'm back to drawing a rarity for me since breaking off from www.Beyondtheveilcomic.com ; I'm drawing BEWBZ again! And oddly enough, lezbos bangin' lezbos. What can I say, friends are a remarkable influence on me in unexpected ways. xD
And if THAT weren't a change of pace, I've got another dear friend of mine who'se gotten me into a special breed of MLP art; FALLOUT MLP, if you can believe it! Imagine Equestria after the bombs have fallen. Yeah.... Yeah, I know. It sounds surreal and slightly pants-on-head retarded, but it ends up coming out like Megaman + ponies + Fallout. Its kinda kick-ass in an oddly cute way. =3
Sooooo, yeah. Lots of neat stuff coming around the corner, not even including a secret super-awesome-happy-fun-time project! About the only thing that'll keep me from regularly arting DAILY is a liquid work schedule and having to shoehorn in exercise.
Once I get this new behemoth and configure the hotkeys, test out SAI and PS on it, etc., I'll start up a stream after I feel comfy with it. I'll most certainly announce it, here.
