The Brutal General (Novel)
Posted 11 years agoI am almost completely redoing the novel. I feel that after the fourth chapter it's just filler with no real depth. I am going to adjust the plot and try to flesh it out as much as possible.
ALL ARTWORK IN MY SCRAPS ARE WORTHLESS TO ME AND WILL BE TREATED LIKE TRASH.
If anyone likes what they see in there, speak up... I might recycle it.

Now doing commissions
Posted 11 years agoAfter getting punched in the face a few times, I decided I may want to try doing commissions. lol
I have attempted to take on a project in Forza 5 that was way beyond my skill level. I require practice and thought that this may help. I will keep my prices as low as possible for this is mainly for practice and experience. More complicated designs will cost more. I define complexity as multiple colors, shading and the use of a high number of layers to make general shape of one vinyl grouping. I can place unlimited groups once they are made and it will not affect the price.
My base price will start at $3 USD and range to a maximum of $50 USD (unless the design is extremely complicated)
Price will be negotiated upon order.
Orders must have:
-Contact information in case I have specific questions and to update on progress
-Vehicle that you like design to appear on (Link to vehicle list http://www.forzamotorsport.net/en-u.....games/fm5/cars)
-A description of what you want to appear on the vehicle
I can be contacted by note, e-mail and skype.
E-mail; OrrJG[at]hotmail.com
Skype; sergal_shigu
Disclaimer; Method of design rotation is of my choosing and will be fair. Vehicles that are not owned will not be presented on the track, but will go to the storefront for sharing. There is unlimited slots, but only one commission at a time. Work on commissions will be limited to 2 hours a day.

About me
Posted 11 years agoI've seen many other do this and thought I may try it.
Here are few basic questions about myself and their answers.
What’s your real name?
Cannot release full information due to security risks, but many make jokes of my name and I find some really cool like Iron Orr.
How tall are you?
5'10"/177.8cm.
What’s your natural hair color?
Brown, but my hair is usually very short to the point of almost non-existence.
What’s your eye color?
Also brown.
Are you single, taken or undecided?
Single.
What do you do in your spare time?
I love to play video games, but I also write.
What’s your job or occupation?
United States Army. Specifically an airframe mechanic
What do you like about yourself?
That is a hard question... I can't honestly say.
What do you dislike about yourself?
My xenophobia
What did your friends notice about you when they first met you?
My loyalty to those I consider close. I will defend my pack until the day I die.
What is your belief/religion if you believe in anything at all?
Another hard question. I guess I can say I'm a true Protestant. I have noticed all religions are the same when torn down to their bare basics, so I've merged many parts to make my own.
Do you drink?
Hell Yeah!
Do you smoke?
Very occasionally a Hooka with friends. Tobacco only.
What are your major fears?
Getting captured and becoming a Prisoner of War or Missing in Action. (POW/MIA)
Do you have any dreams or goals?
To own a fully functional Datsun 300zx.
Have you ever had a crush or an ex?
I've had feelings for a few, but never pursued because I can't always be there for them. For example 1700 miles currently separate my from my family and friends.
Who’s your best buddy?
I have two and I cannot reveal names for their security.
What’s your favorite dish?
Venison or any red meat.
What’s your favorite drink?
My favorite drink so far is cocoanut rum and vanilla coke.
What’s your favorite color?
I would have to say black. I may represent the absence of light, but when one digs deeper they find the full spectrum of color within its depths
What’s your favorite movie?
Rush. It's a story about a rivalry between two Formula One drivers and it shows how deadly racing can be.
What’s your least favorite food?
Almost anything that contains vinegar or mayonnaise.
What’s the last meal you want before you die?
IDK. My time to die is not of my choosing. Like many, I may walk through a hell storm of bullets just to return and get hit by a truck or get killed be something really stupid that no one saw coming.
What do you drive and what would you really like to drive?
I have a 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX and no car can replace it, but in addition I would like to have a Datsun 300zx or a Nissan GTR R35 for fun.
What pet peeves do you dislike the most?
When people think they can beat me in a race when their vehicle is not capable of performing the task or lack experience.
What do you dislike in life?
An improperly built cars... IE; most American cars, modified vehicles that are all bark and no bite. Like the average honda with a new exhaust pipe. The owner's think it sounds like a race car and goes faster than normal, but all it really does is make a lot of noise.
My Fursona
What is your Fursona's name?
Doesn't really have one. Most call him by a nickname.
What is the species of your fursona?
A northern Sergal.
Is your fursona just like you, or how you want to be?
In a way. He is more of my violent side than anything else.
Does your fursona have the same personality you have?
Yes. Loyal and trustworthy, but a potentially deadly enemy.
Does your fursona have the same dislikes and likes as you do?
Not really. I love cars video games and quite a few other things while he is mainly concerned with the task at hand.
Does your fursona look like you at all?
Maybe if I was a sergal. lol
Is your fursona the same gender as you, if not why?
Yes. My fursona is like the part of me no one really sees.
Do you have more then one main fursona?
No.
Do you have a back story for your fursona, if so does it have anything to do with your own history?
Yes. My family as history in the military and there were many events that made him who he is.
Is your fursona mated, if so is it to your real life significant other?
No. Military life makes it harder to find a proper mate.
Is there something special about your fursona that you think sets them apart from others?
It's who I am. My fursona is the part of me that people don't see.
Do you have much art of your main fursona?
No. I have my favorite artist working on an image for I cannot draw.
Would you ever consider parting with your main fursona, if so why?
No. Parting with him would be like cutting off a limb. He changes as I change.
Have you ever roleplayed with your main fursona, or do you prefer not to?
Once or twice, but not much because he can be quite hostile.
Do you consider your main fursona to be a part of you in any way?
Every bit. Other questions contain most of my explanation.
If there is anymore questions that have not been thought of please ask and I will gladly answer.

Project help
Posted 12 years agoI am currently in the middle of two projects and about to start another. Currently there is my novel "The Brutal General" and my project to build one of the coolest vehicles on the street. I need nothing with that novel and I'm waiting to start my second until my commission from the talented KaoriSkywalker.
What I need is a talented artist that can paint. Specifically someone who can paint cars and specializes in ghost paint. I am in the army so I am able to access a wide range of areas. I currently have someone getting a mock up off the general appearance that I want.
The colors I am interested in are; Jet Black as a base, gray, a deep red that closely resembles blood, an electric blue that closely mimics the iconic blue that Subarus are recognized in and a light green all in the a tribal pattern that originate from the body accents IE: headlights, foglamps, hood scoop, the natural curve of the vehicle, etc.
I have to wait for the design to be crafted and put to concept before I can start, so I am in no rush to find such an artist. I may also someone that can work with me personally on the interior.
