new job and what this means for FA
Posted 13 years agoI start a new job tomorrow,.... which means yay more money but boo less free time..
I start School on Monday which means boo less free time..
When I get back from the store I will workout, shower, and turn out a couple of the freebies but basically after that I am going to have very limited freetime.. so we will see what I can get done I will try guys...
once school starts all outstanding freebies will have to be null.. I wont have much time.. BUT good news is I have tonight and Friday night and Sunday night before that happens.
I work tomorrow, thursday and saturday and School starts monday
soo please bare with me on the freebies I am enjoying the practice and I will try to do as many as I can. I wasnt expecting so many people to want them.
Free update
Posted 13 years agoI got a couple more done today.
I had a few monetary setbacks which required my attention today or I would have done more..
I will keep putting them out every day until they are done.
Thanks for the patience. I am enjoying the practice even if some of them are a bit crude yet.
On a side note money managed to screw me in the butt again. I hate money. I wish I had land i would just try and grow my own food and build my own house and totally hermit it all up in there.. LOLOL

*pouts*
Posted 13 years agoour car tags were expired and I just notice.
I went to the DMV like a good citizen to buy new ones.. and they charged me a 100 dollar late fine.. on top of the normal price of tabs. so ended up spending like 140 bucks today.
I was going to go grocery shopping but now I am stuck eating the left over junk in the fridge/freezer.
Looks like hot dogs for a while.
100 dollars? WHY! Why do they need that? What did it really cost them. That interest is phenomenal! Not even credit cards are that high!
Requests
Posted 13 years agoI will finish the free requests tomorrow evening for everyone who has posted up to this point.
My drawings are just going downhill so I think it is time for a break.. LOL

Posted 13 years agoI am bored and wanna do some sketches. FREE
Bust up only unless I decide otherwise
Sketch only unless I decide otherwise (If I get bored I may do linework and colorig but most likely this is just a sketch.
I am just going to do them in order until I run out of time. So I may not get to everyone but I will try.
These are just for fun FREE sketches so dont expect perfection. I suck and I just want practice.. haha
OK so if you want one post on THIS journal 2 references (or more if you want) The better idea I have what your character looks like the better the sketch will be!
WOOT let's do this! Come on it's freeee
(You can share this journal if you want but you dont have to)
*Disclaimer*
These are free practice sketches. They are not my best quality they are just practice drawing other styles and characters than my own. I appologize none of these are very polished

Art Supply for School
Posted 13 years agoJust got my oil painting class supply list.
Ok now I own a fair deal of art supplies being in college for so long...
This is still literally 600 dollars worth of things that I dont own and I am supposed to have it on the first day.
How do they expect me to pay for this? HOLY CRAP!
20 bucks for a single tube of paint? And I need like 20 tubes? Holy Moley!

Really?
Posted 13 years agoI get sick of the internet sometimes.
I dont have a problem with anyone but I do get pretty damn annoyed when people become upity little bitches without educating yourself.
"arguments" are not one sided. If you can't acknowledge what the other person is saying then you have nothing to argue as far as I am concerened.
I can be very understanding and generally I am very very middle ground on things because I LISTEN TO BOTH SIDES but what irks me to no end is people getting hostile for no reason whatsoever!
Everyone in the entire world are just people. I have never met a person who doesnt have a good side but I have also never met a person who doesnt have a disagreeable side. If there is anything at all I have learned through my life it is that everyone is a little bit crazy and nobody is truly good or truly evil.
We are all on this planet together trying to stay comfertable until we die. We work, we laugh, we fight, we hurt. That is life. Get over it and get some understanding.
Nobody is so good unique and special that it gives them the right to blab over everyone else and not even try and listen. If you just want to voice your opinion talk to a wall because in order to have a CONVERSATION two people both need to listen.
Listen, or in this case, READ before you get hostile because you just might realize that what you initially thought about a person might not be right.
Frankly I am pretty dang understanding. I am for people. I am for love and life and happiness and I really dont hate anyone. Sometimes I say what I think and sometimes what I say isnt popular but I am willing to listen to anyone elses point of view if they simply know how to have a conversation.
I am starting to feel very alone here because I am realizing how polarized everyone is. People don't want to get along. People want to argue and fight. While passion is admirable blind passion only leads to troubles.
Harness your passion and use it for good. Know what you are talking about but also know what you are listening to. Educate yourself before you try and school others. Nobody is always right. I am rarely right but I acknowledge it. I am willing to listen and learn with people who are willing to do the same.
I hate driving people off. I hate arguing. It really feels bad inside because I dont have ill will towards anyone really. When someone has ill will towards me and are not willing to stop and listen to reason it bothers me because I do not mind a debate at all.. I am not afraid to listen but I REALLY do get put off when I am not shown the same courtesy.
Now most of you will blow this off as a long winded rant- and it is. But this long winded rant is the only thing keeping me from putting a bullet in my brain after seeing person after person ignorantly broadcast misinformation to the world. A world with billions of people all the same and all yelling at walls.

Olympics Game Idea. (This might be fun plus pos. free art)
Posted 13 years agoI am thinking that since the olympics are going on it would be fun to have some olympic themed art done!
We would need characters, countries, and event ideas
Sooo you could submit a reference of your character along with the country (real or fictional) you would like to represent. (it doesnt have to be the one you live on.. diverse is interesting)
We need event ideas and we need artists willing to draw "snapshots" from the events!
We could do this through the olympics and at the close of the games we can choose our favorite pieces and vote on gold silver and bronze winners??
Share this with your friends if this sounds like fun! I think it could be really fun! The more people that want to play the better!
Artists can choose which of the event ideas they want and which characters were captured in their snapshot of the event.
I think this could be really fun I would be willing to do a couple drawings like this may be..
share this journal and please write your ideas here!!
I was thinking may be anyone who wants to join could.

left4Dead/ Left4Dead2
Posted 13 years agoI remembered today why I havent had the urge to play in a long time.
People! Listen up! If you are going to rush ahead and then rage when you are not winning do not play! It cant possibly be fun bitchen at your team mates and then storming off all the time? Can it? Geez.. if the group stays together and keeps moving and doesnt lag behind there is no problem.. it is when one person lags and one person rushes and everyone rages that it sucks! It's not a hard game.. show some respect and use your brain!
Lol.. sick of raging 12 year olds... off to play a more sophisticated game
wow!
Posted 13 years agoI prayed and prayed last night
today they found liver improvement and they are holding off on taking her off life support. she has a few more days to try and improve now!!! :) Keep praying for her!!
THANK YOUUUU

If you believe in God
Posted 13 years agoIf you believe in God please pray for a family member of mine. they are taking her off of life support tomorrow.
I am very sad. I dont even have enough money to pay rent let alone to go and say goodbye. I am letting my family down again. I can't be there with them while they grieve. I can't even say goodbye to her. I wish a miracle would happen.
Unless I charge it on a credit card I wont even get to go to the funeral.
Sorry if I have been distant lately and I am sorry if I have not been finishing free art. I have been very stressed about money lately and I have been very sad about this family event.
Please pray that a miracle happens.

Freebies
Posted 13 years agoif you are waiting on a request from me please be patient..I just got back in town and I am kinda in a rut.... I will try to get to them but frankly right now I am just trying to relieve money stress and dont feel like working on freebies..
I havent had the time/money to worry about shipping and I am kind of in a rut as far as art goes so that is why none of those are finished yet..
Charms will be shipped ASAP probably next week... they have been finished I have just been busy and I had to wait to get everyones info...
Drawings are as they last were.. I have not been working on them and I previously stated I am not taking free requets because every time I do it I feel guilty if I work on anything else other than that persons request...
sorry for the rant.. just tired of all the requests for my services for computer repair, art, etc.. everyone wants my help for free but frankly I am broke and stressed and dont feel like working for free right now..

Last journal about this I promise!
Posted 13 years agoOk so charms are finished. Contest winners make sure that I have your addresses so that I can mail these to you this week!
They were prototypes and a learning experience so I am very sorry for any blemishes you may find with them. They will only get better from here.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8162671/
If anyone would like one they are 20 dollars plus a couple bucks shipping. They are waterproof and shiny. They have a silver plated backing. They can be keychains or necklaces or rings.. all sorts of things. The reason for the price is mostly just to cover silver, resin, photo printing, and sealer costs... not really cheap materials to work with. heh... If you dont have an image of your fursona for these I may be willing to draw you a bust or something for low cost.
Alsooooo the Charizard charm needs a home. It was my first prototype ever and it has a few minor blemishes from where the ink ran. I will give it to the first zard who wants it. All I ask is you may be toss a couple bucks for shipping my way.

Update on charms
Posted 13 years agoOk I thought I would do an update on the charm prototypes...
Soo.. yesterday I found out that my resin was sealed up. we worked for a couple hours trying to get it unstuck and eventually just cut a hole in the can. The problem was that we had shaken it up and there were some bubbles. Welll I thought I could blow the bubbles out and so I went ahead with the project anyways. I made the charms and DID blow most of the bubbles out.
The ring turned out perfect I think. I may do a second coat of resin but it looks so good now I dont know yet I will decide tonight.
The zard has a few tiny bubbles but nothing major- I will do a second coat tonight on that one.
the rectangle has a slightly uneven surface from where a bubble popped. As it is it looks ok.. but I want it to look great so I am debating and will probably try a second layer to see if that helps.
The circle pendent has a couple tiny bubbles on the edge and if you look at it from the side it is a tiny bit uneven. I will probably try to do a second thin layer.
If I had brand new resin this would not have been a problem or if I had let it sit it might have been better. As of right now none of them look bad I just know I can get better quality. The reason I am doing these for free is because I knew there would be hiccups in my first few. I will start the second layer in a few hours and so these will be done *Tomorrow* night

WOOHOO
Posted 13 years agoOk just sent the images off to be photoprinted and I am going to check the mail for the silver pieces. They should be in now or may be tomorrow..
creating the charms will take about 24-48 hours after that.. so they should be done in between 25 hours to 3 days!
Then to ship.
Let's hope these turned out!
Shipping
Posted 13 years agoOk soo I ordered the silver for my charms like almost a week ago and on the second my shipping said California and when I checked today it hasnt updated.
the seller used USPS instead of UPS so it is taking longer than it should. Do you think my package has moved and the tracking is just not updated or do you think it has sat in Cali for 4 days?
