i don't know if this is real but check this journal http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6939732/

It was a part of the beta for this game and then it just shut down...and people are trying to bring it back.

Nobody's on.

My art simply doesn't work that way. i establish whats in the picture before i even think about establishing pose and setting.

However if i was to someday do one would any of you be interested at all?

back in the U.S.A. and California.

I would like to get an invite.

thanks everyone. took a long time for me to get here.


In other news, the 28th I go back to America. Germany was a wonderful experience. and I am grateful and thankful to  cydrake for giving me the opportunity to be here.

I have a twitter, and I have had one since 2009.

There is this song that has been stuck in my head for almost 2 decades. here it is:



listen at your own peril.

The previous Journal turned out to be a hoax. but god damn it...I wanted to make sure people knew about it in case it was real...well played internet, well played.

Please speak out against the Orphan Works Copyright Act on behalf of all artists!
http://marcianek.tumblr.com/post/12.....ng-term-hiatus

If this bill passes with:
- People being able to copyright derivative work; as in, take one of your pictures, edit it slightly, then register and sell that work (via licensing or otherwise).
- Use unregistered aka "orphaned" work commercially if they "can't contact you".

I'm just going to pull 99% of all my work off-line and concentrate on my fine art, which I can present in person. Because this is a steaming pile of bullshit.
This would also affect non-US artists, and I'm not even sure international artists /can/ register their work with the US copyright office.
If they can, you can be sure it'll cost a tidy sum to have your entire ouvre registered and if everyone is doing it, it's going to take forever. Hope your stuff doesn't get ganked while you wait, lel :/

This is just the next step in a trend of making it easier for large companies (such as clothing brands looking for images to put on their shirts) to just take whatever they want from individual artists who don't have the resources to defend themselves against corporate skullduggery as is. The only ones who won't be affected by this new "copyright law" is the large companies, who have the resources to have everything registered and start lawsuits against infringers, "good faith" or otherwise. In fact, I'm willing to bet this bill is being sponsored by at least a few of the companies that stand to gain by this bill passing :/

Some people might be thinking "Well, X artist is fine with people using their art for whatever." but every individual artist can give away their own rights already, without any amendments to current copyright laws. This is basically stripping away a likely already meager paycheck from people who work hard for the benefit of people who already have plenty.

If you are an American art lover, please consider writing in, the deadline is July 23.

Woudl you guys mind it too much if i started uploading more of my sketches to my gallery? I personally prefer to show finished works. but what do you all think?

Thought it would be interesting to share this site with you in case you wished to join it. i have. look me up sometime. I kinda like its facebook-like appearance perhaps in the future after the beta has ended it can affirm its own identity instead of trying to emulate a popular site like Facebook as another great spot for this community to hang out: https://www.furgather.com/

I'm looking for an Arceus. anyone have one they are willing to relinquish? i doubt it but i could at least ask.

This is the main program I use to create my art. 15 dollars! what a deal.


Thanks for letting me know  Xerxes

To those that have me on Skype. If you don't talk to me first its very, very rare I will initiate conversation. If you want to speak to me, speak to me and i will answer eventually (and the odds of me responding are very, very high) if i don't answer you for a month I'm probably just avoiding contact, so don't take it personally. I'm actually not very social, but damn ti I want to be, and I'm trying to change my chat behavior.

My friend Furzies is in a small pickle. check here for details:
