Going to NY this month, from 12th to the 20th with the family, so going to be interesting. Just don't know how to get around or what sights to see or which shops to visit. I have gotten some suggestions from some friends, but curious if others have some too.

 pokkuti is selling some of his work, in HQ: http://pokkuti.deviantart.com/journ.....port-419011903

Interesting enough, one of his bundle includes a character of mine;
http://www.lulu.com/content/e-book/.....undle/13619467

So if you love his work and want to see them in HQ, now is the chance.

Would people be interested if I streamed commissioned? Problem is international clocks, don't know a site or such that can show everyone at which time a person streams or such.

At the moment, my parents are on vacation and my mother talked to my brother into living here while they are away, because he doesn't have anywhere to go.
Here is the tricky part, he isn't suppose to for my father, so it's a secret.
He still owes me money, using all his money on his girlfriend and he borrows more from me, telling me to keep it secret from my mother, whom kept secret to my father about him having borrowed before.
Now if he does some nice things at times, like dinner once in a while and he keeps the dog company, but he isn't taking good care of it, for one, he doesn't walk the dog much, he chains it outside and because of this, the dog starts to pee on the carpet. And last night it did it once and this morning it did again, on the same spot.
Because he occupies the living room like a squatter, it's the main place to get in and out of the house, he eats and sleeps in the living room, keeping he dog company. When he sleeps, he is impossible to wake up, which would make you think he would at least try to get the dog out before he does, but said he can't. That's bull, it might be hard, but it's not impossible.
Where am I? On the second floor in my room, so I don't see much what goes on in the living room. I have talked about having set times to go out with the dog, but he seems to just blankly about. I wouldn't mind walking the dog, but would have to know if he had be out before, otherwise it's not really doing anything or that interested to go for a walk, so it would just be forcing it.

What it comes down to, seems the dog is the real victim in all of this and it doesn't seem to get any better.

Just letting of some steam, since I don't have anyone to talk about this, because of secrets and time zones. Other then that, getting though a list of things I owe people or promised. Still no work, just like my brother, so he is getting as much money as I am.

 Furry has done work like this http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11378696/ or this http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11378842/


So if curious, here is a link to his journal about it: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/5089882/

A slice of life of Red Silver
Well been a depressing time for me, not sure what causes it, but just down most of the time.
At the moment, it's family that seems to be the cause of it.
My brother came around, just to pick up a letter, some food and then go again.
My mother comes up and asked if he had told me he gotten some money and he had not. That annoyed my mother, because he borrowed some money from me and said nothing.
This isn't unusual. At the moment, he needed the money for his girlfriend and I wasn't in need of the money, but since my brothers had borrow money from me, my parents and such, I had to close of from borrowing any more money, because they could make me broke, at least more then I am.
While I wasn't worried about it, this annoyed my mother and told me to demand the money of him. This is a talk I've heard before and it's not wrong, just can't squeeze blood from a rock, I think the saying go, so I left the room because this is the usual talk that won't make me or her feel better.
This turned into her thinking I am angry with her, which in turn made her lash out on my father for having promised to lend some money to my brother and he had to borrow from me, so it just a vicious circle.
For one thing, I wasn't mad at my mother and tried to talk to her about other things that isn't about money, but her attitude and short answers made it clear she isn't in the mood for it, so for the most of the day, we have kept for ourselves in different rooms.
Been trying to keep of chats, because my mood isn't good and best not to infect others with it, because it can't be solved at the moment.
Just makes me feel tired and down, so don't have the energy to defend or agree on things.

Testing to see if this works, the time for the stream on friday.

http://www.timeanddate.com/countdow.....so=20130531T16

Any interest in commission offers in my stream?

If so, what would be best to do or watch out for?

Like every year, I'll be going to J-popcon. Danish anime and Cosplay convention.
Just in case people were going or curious ^^
English site: http://www.j-popcon.dk/en/

I wish everyone a good new year and hope what ever happens to my friends now and from the past, their friends, families and those who have yet to meet, that things will go well.

Happy new year.

Seems more and more artists use Tumblr, so I'm curious, what is so good about it? And is it worth considering to use?

I'll start streaming on the 12th but will tell an hour or two before starting. I'll start on the first person who shows up on my commission list or I'll start from the top and work down. Besides that, the steam will consist of sketching to warm op and talking ideas with people.

One of the first to show up will get a sketch drawing for free, nothing major, just to losen me up. I really with for the people that have commissioned me to show up, because then I can talk ideas and suggestions while I work, otherwise note me or place a message here to just go along with what you've written to me last time.

Well still doing commissions, but the prices have changed. Those who have ordered commissions from me before the change, will not pay more, they still have to pay the same

I will retain the right to refuse a commission.

Single character $15 for sketches, $25 for inks
Additional characters will cost extra.

Will first receive the payment after the job is done, but will first show a preview before getting paid.

While don't mind changes in general sense, but if more then 5 changes are made by request, I will stop listening to changes. so be clear what you would like.

5 slots are open.

I have gotten my laptop back, but lost my commission list, because it was on it and the laptop was cleaned out. So need to get people who have commissioned me to contact me again.

Just leaving a note while my computer is being repaired and borrow someone else computer to this.

My computer has acted odd before, by restarting itself, regardless what I'm doing or working on. Now it started to freeze and had to be forcibly restarted.

Worst thing about this, is that it's not even 5 months old and still paying for it.

So while it's being fixed, won't be able to post or comment much.

Passed the exams *phew*
Not remarkable grades, but at least got though it. Never like the small talks afterwards, they never make sense to me.

I designed a logo for the client, who wants something close to realistic and I tried to make it simple. I didn't like it as much as it could have been, but we told the issues about it and got it over with.

At the exams, told about the same thing, but seems they wanted to have a logo that I wanted. I honestly didn't see the point, since the logo wasn't for us, but for the client, so why waste more time on it?

Point taken that then they could see if we could have done better, but we came with over 20 different designs and the client told us what we wanted, shouldn't that have been good enough?

Then came the site we did, Saif did a good job, but always skips a process, but that isn't the interesting part, the interesting part was the PHP.

We had the idea of a calender that he could use for his business, as a singer, so you could see when he has time, how long he is willing to show up and so forth.

Here comes the issues, because the calender didn't use the PHP that the teacher wanted, we have to make a blog, which he doesn't know how to control.

Well if we could make it work, that should be good, but a few things were blocked for us: We weren't allowed to use the net for tutorials, funny enough and would be counted as cheating.

Then when we had issues, he wasn't there for us or the others. This is how it went, one group waited for him from 9 to 1 because they had an aggrement, but he didn't show up, so they went home.

Later, he shown up, but asked for someone else we didn't know who was. Next day, because not all the group could show up, we worked from home and he SMS use that he didn't see us yesterday or today... That is bull, we stayed their to past 6 in the same room he asked for that other person.

But we couldn't stay angry at that and finished as much as we could.

Here is the punchline to our little joke, when we had the talk after we did our oral exam with the teachers and censor, one of them asked why we didn't use the calender idea, because it was good. That was funny.


So now that's done, I'm a multi media designer and technically an animator, but my external hard disk died with all my school work, my tutorials and a good deal of my art collection and artwork.

Don't have the money to fix it and might have to get either a new computer or laptop, but can't get that without work.

I guess that's about it, have to get back to finish some of the projects I started, if only I could get my ass in gear, damn thing.

Hope everyone is having a happy new year.

Well don't have much money for things, especially now that I'm jobless, but there is some things I'm curious about.
Membership for sites.

While there are some I would like to join, there is also the question of posting or submitting your work for membership.

There is also the option of creating your own site and make a payment plan, but you would have to be a good designer for that and able to control money flow.

Okay now for the reason I ask, beside the thing stated above, is this; is it work to be a member of Fur After Dark and Club Stripes.
Besides the porn side of it, hope what is the community, can you ask, get feedback and so on.

It might be silly thing, but followed Eric Schwarts, Max Black Rabbit, gNAW and so for years, so seems a way to "corner" artist for feedback... Yeah, I'm weak, still have things to do, but had to tell why that is.

Schwarts I haven't seen yet, but saw Max and Gnaw and a convention, however it was a huge opportunity lost, because I was too timid. Even have hard time asking on FA, since I feel they are terrible busy, but what is a person to it, I'll try to ask them at some point, but Schwarts is a different and harder to contact, I think.

That aside, are these sites worth your time others?

Merry Christmas, hope everyone is well and have a happy time.
We celebrate Christmas today, so a lot of food and spending time with the family.

Well while I'm waiting to see if my gmail is safe about, exams still running in the background. Not sure if it's stress or being tired, but I'm pretty angry at my group and some teachers, more like small things at times and others seem to be pretty damn annoyance.

Because I can't vent my anger well, I want to be alone. Away from chats and such, hiding mostly. When I feel a little hostility, if it was with intent or not, it unnerves me pretty badly. So I'm trying to stay away from chats and such in this periods.
I don't know if it's to stew in my own anger or if my anger is misplaced all together, but seems to be hard to work out at times.

Oh well, otherwise trying to entertain myself with coming up with ideas and watching series, mostly spending time on the net really. Funny spending time on the net without much social network, but follow things on FA and DA, downloading and reading wedcomic and manga.

We handing our project in at the 17th this month and oral exam on the 6th January. We are worried about some of the internet part of the project, but hoping things will work out. Seems so easy to worry, and so hard to be confident. Then again, if I was confident, I might have overlooked some things.

Just to warn people, someone or thing, entered my Gmail account from china and spamming people from my contact list.

Well this is just to satisfy my curiosity on webcomics and such.

Doesn't mean I only direct to people who only read webcomics, but it's because it might be the easiest for me to work with or at least hope so, been putting it of for years.

Here goes. The story is important, that is true, but how to build it up to digestible sizes to work with or evolve it.

When people work on the series, they sketches a few papers ahead of time, such as 10-40 pages before working on the first page and posting it? How often is it acceptable to post or should there be something like RSS system, so updates will be notified?

Building a site good or use a pre existing gallery such as FA to post. Having your own site has options, but is it important?

Okay, since we got the more important things out of the way, lets talk about least important, the art. Does it matter if it's sketch, inked, colour and stylish?

When doing all these things, it is best to look at tutorials or just wing it, learn from your mistakes and such?

Well that is it, I guess, if I'm missing anything, let me know. I don't know if anyone would see a comic from me, since most can tell how well I work with such projects.

I just got tagged by Fettcom: and Ayanamifan from DA

fettcom http://fettcom.deviantart.com/ for ten things about Sif, old human character of mine. His gallery on DA http://fettcom.deviantart.com/journal/34275403/

Ayanamifan http://ayanamifan.deviantart.com/ for ten things not known about me, as scary as that sounds. His gallery on DA http://ayanamifan.deviantart.com/journal/32826388/




Well to be far, Aya tagged me first, so her goes.

10. I talk nonsense in a drunk fashion when I get too tired

9. When I'm tired, my mood is in the bottom of coal basement, a somewhat Danish saying.

8. Aside from the net, I have 2 friends. I'm not picky, just can't stands most people I've meet in RL.

7. As a timid person, I hide from most people until I feel I'm mentally really to tackle them. This leaves a lot of messages unanswered or waiting.

6. I love action manga, love manga, comedy manga, female muscle, breasts, female muscle growth and hentai.

5. I regret a lot of things, so I remember them well, for some reason. I take negative things in pretty well. So art trades I haven't finished on DA is still on my mind, have commissions to do, but the net has so many interesting things on the net and TV, that is on point 6.

4. Some say I'm good at seeing details in stuff, but it's not something I control, so it's also when I work with my own stuff, I see all the problems with it, also happens when I try out stuff like 3D, animations, comics and designs.

3. Because I have a self hate of sorts, it's pasted onto my avatars. Kind of unfair, because what have they ever done to deserve being miserable like me? Well... Where did I leave that bribe money...

2. I have grey hair and not much hair to begin with, sadly...

1. I have a beard that hasn't turned grey yet, like my hair.




The people I tagged are on FA and one of them on FA, but since I only want to bother him one place, I won't bother him here.




So Fett wants to know a little about Sif? Okay, here goes.

10. She is the daughter of a blind sailor called Thor.

9. She would have liked her inhibitors were in different designs or at least colours.

8. When she gets angry, annoyed, silly, shy, happy, drunk or tired, she gets an Norwegian accent.

7. Her favourite colour is gold.

6. She likes to dance, but no one are brave enough to be her dancing partner.

5. She loves everything that has apple, such as pies, juice, alcohol and so on.

4. She lost her fathers favourite hammer when she was 13 by throwing it too far. It was then she got her first inhibitor.

3. She helped her father getting things at the best prices, something she inherited from her late mother, she was told.

2. While her father was a legendary fighter, she has never really been in a real fight.

1. She dreams of seeing the world, but is currently feeling she has to stay with her father. That my change.




To be honest, there isn't really one I can tag with this, because honestly don't know who to ask for what.

Got a C and a D on my oral exams.

It's good I passed and I'm an average person, so I guess average grades aren't unusual, but compared the D to the C, I felt more confident before I took the exam and got a D for it.

I tried to do the best I could, but things didn't work as I wanted, it was mass even with the power point I did and didn't understand the questions in the same ways as the censors did. The other I felt tense and nervous. I guess I should be happy about passing, just feels my efforts I spent on the D wasn't worth it.

If I asked to retake the exams, I would most likely have to retake the other one as well.

I am ranting again, but if you feel your efforts and confidence is wasted, isn't that a bad thing?

Well with this out of the way, just have to find inturnship before September, but shouldn't be as stressing before that, so at least get a little rutine back. We haven't been told about the great project we are suppose to write about while being in the inturnship, with seems annoying, but better take one stress factor at a time.
