I'm kindof back
General | Posted 11 years agoOk I just did a quick look thru my gallery and holyshit. I need to make things other than profile pictures. It's looking VERY samey, tho in my defense pin ups weren't my thing. In other words I need to stop being lazy and ink my fucking comics. Otherwise it'll look like I'm just some pin up phoney. :c But I'm kindof back, hope things have been kool.
I'm not dead. Why is "I'm not dead " a thing?
General | Posted 11 years agoAnywho I'm drawing some hopefully epic stuff right now. Yes at 3:55am in the morning. I DON'T SLEEP. 8D Some major things have been happening and shit since last time was changing. It's still going down hill, but .. not on MY end for once. The only thing I'm fighting now is fighting my muse cause she's an evil bitch. My goal is to TRY to be more active. But Tera Rising, and still a lack of a scanner hold me back. I might post some art I got saved on my iphone 5. We'll see. ALSO my comics got downsized due to real life issues. Lamont Raccoon is still there, but others are in limbo as of right now. - I need to ink those- Heh, on the subject of Tera Rising who plays this game that I know? Anyone? Anyone wanna join? Please? D:
A fucked up update....
General | Posted 12 years agoLet me say that day one after selling my 60in LED tv, my 360 and it's 20 games, PLUS my PS3 and my 50 games. That looking at the wall where this was all at is depressing. I KNOW I should be thankful I still have power, still have a place to live, still have my laptop and iphone 5. But I'm just being honest here and it SUCKS. This is the millionth time I had to sell anything I had to make ends meat. I'm sick of losing what I want because I either fell short or in this period choose to help someone out. I don't know what to do, or what to think, I'm just at my end right now. I just want to quit trying. Every time I make a step forward it seems to punch me in the face and I have to start all over again.
And that's what sucks about this entire thing. I'm fucking sick of starting over. I'm already depressed enough, how far do I have to fall before my luck changes? Look I KNOW life is what you make it, I KNOW change doesn't start unless it starts with you. I KNOW. Believe me if ANYONE knows this shit it's me.. the guy who should be dead on all accounts. I've been burned, blown up, shot, frozen outside in nothing but my underwear as a child... I KNOW this is small shit compared to what life can REALLY do. I've been homeless from 2010 to a year ago, living under an intersection until I moved to the Salvation Army. Then stayed there until the Veteran's program got me a house. I been weeks without food at hotels before I lived on the streets. I KNOW I need to look at this and need to be thankful I'm on this laptop right now.
But I'm only human and right now this fucking sucks. I'm fighting tears right now cause I feel like I'm in a losing battle with fate. I said all that to simply say I'm not trying to be a brat.. if I come off as one. I'm sorry, I'm just sick of losing what I worked for. Cause I know it's going to be HARDER to get what I lost. It's always harder. It doesn't get easier, not in my case. I don't know what to do or think, I'm seriously just here right now. And note what I'm about to say isn't because I lost my toys.. it's because I'm losing my will to try anymore. Which leads me to want to say fuck it and blast my brains out. I'm getting to that point and the more set backs I push away the harder it becomes. To top this all off I'm never on the correct medication cause none of it seems to work. Some days I wish that I.E.D killed me like it was meant too.. instead of living a life where things keep get taken away from me.
This came out long and now all I seem to do is cry over stupid shit. There's people with REAL problems. So I'm done... I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time. Again.

Getting back to it.
General | Posted 12 years agoThat's right I'm finally trying to jump back into it. Updates will be kindof slow as I'm waiting on my paycheck so I can get a scanner. Then real magic shall begin. Until then I've been okay for the most part. And I'm feeling random... who ever wants my number let me know. I know.. not smart, but I'm a big boy I can take care of myself. lol. But yeah, expect more updates real soon.
Hi
General | Posted 12 years agoWell I finally got PS on a computer.. just not at HOME. So I'm at my friend' house making my poster. matter of face I'l upload what I got in like 10 mins.
I GOT PHOTOSHOP
General | Posted 12 years agoI'm coloring more shit and updating what I colored and making a HUGE series type poster. Coming REAL soon. Love you all.
Another update.
General | Posted 12 years agoI'm currentyl DLing Photoshop, that means nothing to everyone HERE, but what it DOES mean is that I'm recoloring some things. I've been coloring on Paint.net. Which is wonder, but photoshop has alot more options. So When that's done expect some recolors as some pictures while good.. didn't come out the way I wanted them too. And ofcourse I got new pictures to color as well so it won't ALL be reruns. Thanks for your time. Keep it kool fools. :D
Got some more updates I"m uploading later today around 3pm.
General | Posted 12 years agoJust as the title saids it'll be more pin ups, but expect something today. That is all.
It's been long
General | Posted 12 years agoAnd it might be longer. BUUUUUUT I'm still drawing and making artwork. Matter of fact it won't be THAT long as there's a lib near me. It's about a 2 hour walk away BUT I'll do it to keep my page updated. I have my PTSD and sleep meds so I'm doing okay. Waiting on my claim still so I can buy my own shit but I'm drawing and coloring so I'm good. So sorry for all the long wait updates. Forgive mes.
Doing some uploading finally.
General | Posted 13 years agoWell I debated long enough, I'll start taking comissions now. Also finally got around to uploading the first issue of LR, better scans and color will be added. But I wanted to atleast uploaded the first issue so people would know what the big deal is.
Also on prices for the comiss. I really don't know, they won;t be high or anything.... I think the MOST I would charge is 5 bucks.... But again I'm tasting the waters to see if it's something I would want to do more of. THAT and I'm not sure if my art is even GOOD enough, so here it goes.
Lamont Raccoon
General | Posted 13 years agoIs Lamont a furry? I typed what is a furry on google, but I didn't get a solid answer...... So what you you guys think? I dunno. One I wanted to get the rant Journal off the front page, and TWO.. I actually don't know if He would be called a Furry or Anthro or what. Like seriously, I don't know. :c Or more importantly, is furry like an art style type of deal? As I heard some people just call Lamont an anime raccoon... being the style he's drawn into.
RANT
General | Posted 13 years agoI quit!!! Messing with these stupid Vet sites and their shitty as hell net code. I quit! I can't even check my fucking status because it hipcups and tells me " IT FAIL AND I HAVE NO MORE ATTEMPTS TO CHECK THE STATUS!!!" And calling them is a fucking WASTE seeing as they are ALWAYS experiencing HIGH CALL VOLUME!!!! I almost punched the computer dealing with this shit!!!
Not in a good mood, not at all. Can't even check my status and see what is next because for stupid net code!!!! * bangs head extremely hard on wall* Fuck you Ebenefits!! Fuck you!!!!
Comissions are coming... maybe...
General | Posted 13 years agoI'm thinking about doing comissions, of any kind really. Why? Because I never tried to do them before and figure why not? I believe I'm a decent artist so here's my go at it.
Pencil drawings 1 dollar.
Color artwork 5 dollars.
As far anything mature I haven't made it in my mind what I want to charge... as I haven't even drawn anything passed a simple nude photo... so once I get some practice in I'll let everyone know. I'm not charging per character as I want to get my name out more. If anyone has advice let me know.
ALSO this doesn't take effect right now as I'm still without a computer. Once I get one I'll start actually doing them .This is just a thought as of right now. I wanna first see if there's a want before I make anything final. I would love to do some trades and whatnot also ( free of course... ) So let me know if anyone wants one or if my art is too bad and nobody wants anything. Later days peeps.
Question I've been thinking about
General | Posted 13 years agoCan you tell what gender someone is simply by their artwork alone? Like seriously, or RACE even... I met one person who says you can... called me out on mine. I dunno.. I was looking for a topic like that on google, but found NONE. Come on google.
TRADES
General | Posted 13 years agoI'm thinking about doing some trades or requests. I'm gonna be working on one I asked to do tonight and have it posted tomorrow. I'm limited in supplies so about the farest I can go with anything is Inking. I don't have my laptop which makes me cry at night so no colors. T.T I know.... it blows hard. BUT I CAN do pencils and Inkes. So if anyone watching me wants a trade or anything hit me up.
I need to practice on my art anyway. The only thing I'm kindof iffy on is flat out X-rated pics, I DO draw nudes * Blame my character Lei-Wong for that one.* So that isn't a problem. Well I'm talking/ typing too much.. hit it up. :D
Later Days.
BACK kindof
General | Posted 13 years agoSo yeah.. five years.... i nthose five years I've been deployed over seas, Lost friends, been blown up, came back, moved from like 4 different states and all that. STILL drawing. Just no scanner. But if anyone noticed.. I uploaded quite a bit today.. most of them somewhat old but newer stuff I had on another DA account. The BRAND new stuff is sadly all in pencil.
Just wanted to say I'm back. And don't plan on leaving again. I'm done with the army so I'm FREE. Yes... and the sidewalk tasted horrible BTW.
YO!
General | Posted 18 years agoI wanted to expand my work from not only DA but to other art sites as well. To all who know me I'm Lamontraccoon from DA, I'll be psoting here and there, why? It's more shances to get my art out there.And it only makes sense as most of my characters are animals... well 2 comics are anyway.. Lamont Raccoon and Terrence the Squirrel.
so yeah we'll see how this works. Later days.
FA+
