Eeep! 3000 page views jumped up on my very suddenly. I am away from home until the end of the week but when I get back I will have to whizz up a 3000 views pic of big betsy!

Woo hoo! Thanks guys. My thank you piece is here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6859014
She has a rough storyline but no name...
"An abused and inconsequential hooker and drug runner for the mafia is offed for snitching but there is some as yet undefined way that a chemical spill gives her huge muscles and turns her into a giantess (undecided size) with massive boobs and an insatiable sex drive etc... " haha, very rough! I will set about doing some panels as a lead up to this piece to explain her history a little.

Keep faveing! When we get to 2000 faves the next panel will pop up as if by magic and she will be even bigger is suspect.

(3000 page views is nearly up... have to do another view of Betsy for that!) https://www.furaffinity.net/view/6778796/

Macro Lovers!

Don't let this opportunity go to waste! Its free guys!

Only 25 more faves until I can post my "thanks for 1000 faves" piece! Its a new character (although seen in scraps) and an attempt at a different technique for colouring muscles. Can't wait to post it, nearly there!

ok, having 2nd thoughts about that last journal... The song just got me really emotional and I didn't count to 200 before I pressed send.
This is not open season on my private life, trust has to be earned.

Thanks

If you don't like personal journals that could be called ranty then stop reading here.

I have had this song on repeat for the last couple of hours, its from Florence and the Machine's new Album Ceremonials. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbN0nX61rIs&ob=av2n

Its a new Album but its a song which perfectly sums up my last year or so and where I want to go from here. Almost every single word of the lyrics resonates really deep with me right now. The last year has been comfortably the worst year of my life and everytime I think I see a light at the end of the tunnel , the light seems to get further away.
I'm a very open person but this is a very private matter which I have been undecided about talking about ever. I've decided against going into specifics here but if you are open minded, kind and want to know more about me (rather than just being nosey and intrusive) then feel free to ask. Its not something which I see as secret, just very private.
I always think to myself that it could be much much worse and that I have so much going for me that I can't complain. In life you have to roll with the punches and make the best of every situation.

(I just wrote a long bit here but as I'm not going to go into specifics it seemed a bit redundant and complainy - all I will say in this journal: reasons are medical and chronic)

When I told one of my closes friends she said: "Oh my god, don't scare me like that, I thought it was going to be something serious! Yeah its annoying but i thought you were going to tell me something terrible!" If only everyone was as awesome as her :)

A new series of Mongrels is starting on Monday, 10.30 BBC 3! http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010t19z

Its Movember! Anybody else going to do the Mo?

Hi all,
I am not dead, just temporarily absent. I'm out of town for a while and so can't produce anything new but I have thoughts churning away in my head, and that includes those who have given me requests which I haven't fulfilled yet. Hopefully the ideas will be better than ever when I get them down :)
In other news it looks like my life has been turned upside down... I will almost certainly not be getting my winter seasonal work visa to come work this ski season in the USA... As this is what i've done for a few years I'm in a bit of a state of shock and don't really know what to do with my life... Answers on a postcard...

I'm going to start trying to use my scraps. Some older artwork will be moved there as time goes on as well as sketches and ideas. Keep an eye on it.

Thanks to all the people who keep watching and faving, I really really appreciate it. I will try and put some work together for 2000 page views and 1000 faves when that comes up. Might have to wait for 200 watchers to do a watchers celebration... if that ever happens...

Still no job so churning out the art. I am however doing lots of large commissions in the next couple of weeks so I will have to travel. This is going to dry up the frenetic pace a little, but hey ho...

Anyway, just a little update... thanks again.

I signed up to FA a week ago today!

I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has watched, faved and commented on my artwork and been so supportive in my limited time here. Its been awesome so far, and while I won't always be so prolific as this for ever I'm going to try and keep producing for a little while longer so that I have a bit more of a solid gallery. I've got more requests on the way and its been a really interesting experience drawing other people's characters and fursonas. That's not something I've ever done before, normally I exist in my own little world, but its been amazing to have some interaction. Actually this last week has been the first time I've drawn anthros rather than just humans so that's been really fun too. I'm trying to extend my range and try new things.

Today is also the week-iversary of when I downloaded my trial copy of photoshop elements, so thank you Adobe :) I've been without photoshop for about 3 years now after a HD failure lost me my cracked copy. That's probably why I've been producing so much work, I'm very excited to be back with the program! As you may have noticed, almost everything has been full colour and detail (well, the best that I can currently do) and I've realized that I can't keep it up. I'm going to have to produce more b/w and inks, and be more selective about what I make into full colour, or my head will pop!

Anyway, just wanted to write and thank you all. Keep faveing and commenting and sending notes, it really spurs me on :) See you soon for more!
