Well my 2TB HD's mirco usb slot seems to have... broken off? :( It doesn't really affect much... but I think I might need a new enclosure for it. My dad might be able to pull a soldering(?) miracle on it, but I think that might not be the case... we'll see.

On the up side of things, I'm at my apartment in college atm.. (drool fast internet o_o) AND my oh so "pleasant" roommate seems to have made plans to not be here (leaving me with his cat Doggy. Who is the clingiest mofo ever lol. He follows me EVERYWHERE).

Anyway off to draw dragons and puffins :P

is holding a raffle for when he hits 4000 pageviews! Just comment here.

Well I'm about to reach 4000 pageviews, so I cooked up a little contest thingy. :3
Here's the dealio:
1. You need to have a fursona that works in my style and isn't too complex. use your wits please and realize that my art is heavily limited. People with fursonas that won't work will be told upfront (sorry, hi have to put my foot down on this one :p)
2. Comment with a ref and a picture of your favorite bag of chips/other bagged snack
3. Must be a watcher

The winner will be chosen at random when I hit 4000 pageviews ^^
Have fun and thanks for sticking around

the prize: a recolor of my "the cosmos need me" flash animation

I thought up a way to give me some challenges to draw and practice. Basically, you comment to this journal with a rule (like draw a pic using only the colors blue and yellow or something) and I'll draw it.. or die trying (hopefully not o_o). This isn't a requests journal, so the rule can't be "you must draw my character" :P. But be creative!! ^_^

*suddenly a 3D arm extends through the screen and bops you on the nose* HAH! Now please gimme so suggestions :3

Alright, as suggested by Dodge, I'm gonna do some commissions for your own version of Armor as well as the icons. I'm gonna start with 5 slots atm.

Examples:
Armor (Dodge)
Armor (Aerux)

Icon examples:


What you get: The full piece, plus the animated icon. You can choose the background color and armor coloring style.
Price: $10
Restrictions: Males only, and must pay via paypal.
Slots Open: 5

If you're interested, note me. :3

Okay, it will be a bit complicated, but I put some thought into it and I'd like to do it this way. No much blabla, I'll just start with the rules. So uhm, please read everything, that will make it easier for all of us.

Rules:
1.) This is for watchers only (if you only watch me now that's okay though, more about that below)
2.) All you need to do is comment here and post a ref
3.) You can also post a journal to advertise this, though, and doing that will get you basically a second entry number (so another chance to win)
4.) If you were already watching me by the time this journal was made you get another entry number automatically, since I appreciate you guys
5.) Yes, this stacks, so if you watch me already and make a journal for this you will have 3 chances to win
6.) Tell me something about robots in your post, so I know you read this
7.) I do not draw boobs, never did. Female characters are totally fine with me, but they'd have to be flat chested. Can't think of any other limitations though.

Prices:
TWO winners will receive a colored and shaded bust of their character. I may add a third winner, this depends on how my commission queue will look like.
- I will probably take my time with the prices. Up until now I always kept my word and gave out all the prices, did all my parts of trades (can't even say the same for the people I did them with) and of course commissions. So just trust me on this and please do not think on any point of time I bailed out. Thank you.

That should be it for now. I will add more if I can think of anything. I also hope all of this was understandable.

Aww yeah!! Happy New Years Eve everyone! :3!!! *throws confetti-bricks into the smashing everything and giving me a black eye and a bloody nose* oww....

My new years resolution is to be furrier! *spontaneously grows fluffier* ....good nuf...

Happy Holidays eveyone!! And don't forget! that snow isn't lemon flavored o.o.......

I want some ideas that my buddy (a filmography major) and I can make into a short film over our ~1 month winter break. We have a few ideas in mind, but nothing that we're set on.

If we use your idea, I will make sure you get your name (fursona or real name) in the credits. I will even make you a free piece.
** Bloodewulf, I'm gonna get your piece done after finals. Make sure you're on skype sometime soon please x3

Here are a few short films we've made:
Rocky Road
Hand Guns
** Both feature me if you're curious who I am out of the fur :P

Stuff to keep in mind:
- this is a low budget film
- the film will be 5~10 minutes long
- we have limitations on filming locations (just be modest with the setting)
- we have only a few actors, with limited skills
- this is going to be filmed over only a few weeks
- my buddy isn't a furry, I won't force him to do anything involving the fandom
- the movie can involve guns, but doesn't have to. You see our entire arsenal in Rocky Road pretty much.
** Some other restriction may apply; if I see a problem with your idea, I'll let you know

We were thinking of mak.... SHIT!! HERE COME THE SNAILS!

_@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/ _@/

GO SNAILS GO!! :O

Anyway, we were thinking of of making a prequel to Rocky Road, but we still need a plot. My buddy is also anxious to try a comedy. All suggestions are welcome! Just keep em reasonable x3

EDIT:
Noted Suggestions

Anyway funny story:

So not only am I busy tonight.. but sleep deprived :( I will get to comment responses asap.... sorry.

Happy Thanksgiving everfur!

Here are a few people that I am thankful to have met in my 6 months (or so) of being a furry:



And I look forward to hopefully meeting many more awesome people and getting to know everyone :3

http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4020956/ details are in there!

Finally on weasyl thanks to Dodge! I'll set it up more tomorrow.

In addition, tomorrow is gonna be devoted to knocking out the artwork I've been putting off so long >.<

add me if you have one x3

Random late-night idea that popped into my head.

When I get my current work done, I wanna try to create a story-line (furry related) game that uses links to navigate through various pictures (in my scraps to kinda give a visual of what's happening) and you gather clues or something if you go in the right order. At the end, the clues help you solve a riddle or puzzle or something. If you don't go through in the right order you'll either not be able to solve the riddle or won't get the right answer or it will lead you to a dead end in the game. First one to solve it correctly wins free art. I wish could have more watchers though >.<. It'd be a lot more fun if more people tried to solve it.

On the other hand... this won't be done quickly sooo there is plenty of time between now and then lol. This could also be an on-going project and have various chapters... hmmm so many ideas!!

It'd be like the command prompt kinda games where you are given a situation and you make a choice based on the given options. So like:

*You encounter a chest!* Open?

[yes] [no]

Yes -> The chest is booby trapped. You start over the chapter.

No -> You continue on and so forth...



What is everyone's opinions on this?

PS: Ivikk! you could help me with the story x3. We come up with some awesome random adventures lol

well... imagine some bouncing balls in ascii art.. cause FA's formatting messed it up :P

Alright, sorry for procrastinating again.. I'd like to blame it on "I'm busy", but honestly that isn't the entire case. >.<

I'm gonna get the 1920s piece done this week and the commission done as well.

The 1920s one is pretty much done in terms of lineart, just need to fix a few things. Color and shading shouldn't take that long. And then I'll start work on the commission and then curl up in a coma and sleep for a week... I'm sooo tired..... z.z

oh and pickles! also, I've started keeping track of my public works on my profile page if you haven't noticed. That'll make it easier for me to keep everyone up-to-date.

edit: also I finally reinstalled adobe after effects (updated to cs6 woo!) so I'll be trying more animation. :3

I really trying to improve my skills as an artist. I've drawing for the past ~4 months or so and lately I've been set on these "badass" images. But I'm curious: what would everyone else like to see more of? I really wanna experiment with what I can draw so I'm open to almost all suggestions!

I still have to do the 1920s picture so don't worry about that x3.
