It has been foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeverr since I did a journal and even longer since I done a "Dress Sargren" bit. So you know what I'm willing to draw.

Just let me know what kind of costume Sargren should wear and I'll challenge myself to draw some or all of them.

So this is for Halloween of course. I'll give this journal till the 20th so I have time to work on it. For those of you who don't know Sargren is my main Jaguar character. Here is one Halloween pic I did a while back as an example.

Just aren't enough. I told a couple of you that I would have trades done by the end of October. Then work got me on another art project that I shouldn't have volunteered for. So basically almost nothing got done when it comes to trades. So I'm setting a new goal for the end of this month and PRAYING it works this time. VERY sorry once again.

Very VERY sorry that I haven't given an update in so long. This has been a crazy few months for me moving from one job to another. Once I get a bit more settled in I'll try to start back up with everything that I promised to you guys. Thanks for being patient with me.

I know it's been forever since my last journal. I just need a haloween idea for this year. Just pick one of my characters and then a good costume for them. Thanks all.

Now is everyone's favorite time of the year. The time of year for giving and receiving.... and the time when I torture myself to give everyone gifts!
I'm planning on doing HOLIDAY REQUESTS differently this year. I'm simply opening up 5 slots for requests, BUT since "first come first serve" isn't always my thing, I'm planning on choosing randomly from whom ever leaves their requests on this journal.
Depending on the overall amount of people who request I would prefer to give to those who HAVE NOT gotten a request from me before.
IF out of some glorious holiday miracle I breeze through the 5 (not likely but there is always that small chance) I will open up to more or just give to the remaining people who requested.

The request will be of ONE character, quick sketch, please see my gallery and/or favorites for ideas on what is acceptable otherwise DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK.

Announcements of who receives gifts will be on the December 4th.

With all that said let the requesting commence!

BUT what is it that you would like to see more of outta me? A job I've been working as allowed me some time to just sketch but not a lot of digital work. So as a way of giving me some ideas what would you like to see me sketch more. Please let me know here.

...and not looking back. I haven't been responding to all the stuff I should have been and it's really piled up on me. So if you have a submission you really want me to look at and give my opinion on let me know. I'm not saying my opinion should be valued I'm just saying that if you have a piece that you want to get one more comment on now is the time to turn my attention to it.

Also, I am canceling all current requests and trades except for one and starting over as part of of this whole fresh start. I'm sorry to everyone who is expecting one.

So I am however opening up for NEW trades and commissions as of NOW, and DANGIT I'm gonna try to be more committed to them!

Thank you all and sorry again.

You may not have noticed but I have been gone for a while. My net went down and I couldn't get it back these past couple of weeks. Anyway back to streaming and commenting and... what not. :D

I'm more then a little disappointed in many of you because you didn't vote! At the time of writing this journal the pic I posted received 75 views and out of 75 only 7 of you actually voted. XD For shame. I know the names of two of you, you know who you are... I think.

I'll give it another day or two before counting the votes but so far Lightning is way in the lead from both Deviant Art and here. I probably should have said not to vote according to outfit *lol* BUT THATS MY BAD.
Much thanks to everyone who did take time to vote so far!

Thursday 7/29 is when it's happnen'. I await my gifts! j/k

Sorry I really need to let people know I'm alive. Got a new job and all the worries that come with it. But those of you get on to Ustream a lot have at least seen me lurking around Air, Hound Grey, and Weasel Grease's shows. I have a couple of new pieces that I need to get posted but I have a Trade to finish and a collab.

Hope to hear from you all soon.

How many of you think you could stand watching me Ustream? I think I'd bore you to death because I can't take live requests for two reasons. 1) No Tablet. 2) I would be happy to TRY to draw with a mouse but mine has a malfunction that forces the pointer to shoot off in another direction at random so I can't trust it. You can however watch my coloring process, talk about art, chat with me live and others. Just chatting in Ustream is pretty fun. So if you want to see me on Ustream !!PLEASE!! let me know.

Well I'm ready to kick off my 28th year of life with... something! Still picking at a few works including a celebration pic.

Trades and commissions still up if anyone is interested. Thanks again for the BILLIONth time for your support.

It's getting there. Capture the 4000 mark and win a prize!

I know. I know. Your all probably sick of these journals by now but since it seems that commission info is down for the time being I thought I would just let every one know that I seem to be always open for commissions and trades.

I'm extremely flexible with pricing but as a rough estimate: $5 Sketch/b & w drawing, $10 Color.
I also work with websites and Flash.

Of course I'm always open to trades as well. :D

Anyway thanks for putting up with my little ad here. Yup, I'm still alive and well.

I couldn't help but look at my Halloween journal and realize that it has been quite a while since I posted a new one. I'm so happy to have reached 3000 hits finally, thank you all. Also this is the time of year when I would give out free requests but due to the all the crap I have to deal with at school to graduate even the DA requests have been postponed!

However if you all could bare with me until the end of next week I might still put that call out.

I could also use some more opinions on the LS comic I hope I still have ya'll hooked.

Thanks again and I'll catch ya later!

So where did I go? In my last journal I posted that I didn't have a personal computer so no decent net access. Finally I have a new computer and I'm back to full speed. All is right with the world for now. I'll be responding to messages faster and I can post work whenever. Halloween is coming up and I have a picture planned so hopefully I'll follow through with that.

In regards to the Lightning Surf comic the second page is nearly complete but it'll be tough get pages out any faster considering I have a lot on my table with classes this semester. Thanks for your patience.

Catch ya'll later!

Hope everybody is glad to be back. I'll be REALLY SLOW in responding to anyone because I still don't have a computer so I'm having to rely on my PS3 and others' computers. Well, later all!

Whew! Now that THATS over with. It's back to work on my very simple first Surf comic page! I also have some fan art on the side somewhere I'd like to fool around with.

Also see what the benevolent mr. Wolfstar was kind enough to do for me!

Later!

I just thought I should let everyone know that my previously mentioned projects have been postponed. I have a B-day present for someone as well as an important art trade to finish. Not only that but as of February I don't have a computer of my own so no convenient access to the net therefore I have been slowed in responding to everything and everyone. I didn't think it would be a problem here because I can still access FA from my PS3 but it's still a chore for both me and the machine without a keyboard.

Don't fret though You'll still get to see a preview of my amature comic skills soon enough. :) Thanks all for your patience! :D

Phew! Anyway, I still have a couple of new characters I want to introduce that you all might like. After that I'll get to work on more Surf for the comic. And yes I'll do something to celebrate my 2000th page view. Till next time...!

First order of business, I still have a Griffin you all (I assume) are wanting to see.
Second, How many of you are actually interested in seeing a comic about Lightning Surf? OR how many would actually read a Surf story?
Third I'm almost at 2000 hits!! Thank you so much all!

LASTLY, There are alot of "meme's" going around it's hard not to get caught up in them cause of the tags. As much as I hate jumping on the bandwagon so to speak I believe that getting to know me might help you understand my work. So I'm simply going to put myself on the hot seat and you can just ask me about WHATEVER you want as long as it's not TOO dirty. I'm going to regret this I think but I'll answer. So without further ado let the questioning begin!!

I'm overjoyed at how many people liked my computer colored pic of Surf. Just a quick rant on the process, apperently I still havn't gotten over my lined paper addiction which is why it took me so long to post it. I had to scan then erase lines then paint bucket the base colors. I created the shadows and symbol manually. Bottom line it all started as a simple doodle on my notes for class.

Upcoming:
I still have a picture of Glacier and Surf together to finish and for practice with Illistrator and layers I traced a random griffin drawing that I would like color and post.

Thanks all!
