Something Good Sketch Week Day 2
January 3rd, 2009“It was the freshest move I’d ever seen…”
January 2nd, 2009“…Like he was floating on air.”
First sketch week of ‘09 and I’m going back to Something Good ‘08, by Utah Saints. I decided this sketch week, I’m doing something different, I’m going to work one drawing to a completed state. I’m starting with the rough idea here.
Just in case you have no idea what this is about, have a youtube video…
Happy New Year
December 31st, 2008It’s New Year’s Eve, and it’s time for New Year’s resolutions. I’m going to be stupid and document mine right here.
- First week of every month will be sketch week. I’ll post a drawing a day as long as I’m able to get online. If I’m no where near an internet connection, I’ll still sketch and post later.
- Go to the life drawing thing on Tuesday at the Palo Alto art center.
- Actually post some stuff on some of the boards I frequent (deviantArt, Manga Bullet, The Drawing Board, BAUU). At least come up with an avatar for those boards.
- Customize the appearance of my blogs,
I’m also going to try to get in shape, but I’m not about to make that a resolution.
Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas!
December 25th, 2008Hot Linking Aftholes
December 13th, 2008I just found all the recent links to my site were hotlinks of one my images. Unfortunately, it was of happy cat. Well, no more posting popular internet images. In the meanwhile, we’ve replaced that image with the following images, let’s see if they notice the difference….
Hotlinking domains/threads available on request. I’m working on setting up a site wide protection
Update - I’ve decided to be less mean, and gone with this image…
Sketch 12/08/08
December 9th, 2008The great thing about doing a sketch week is that it forces me to draw and post something. No matter how rough the day, I have to draw something. I might not have done any great works this time around, but at least I’m seven sketches closer.
Lessons learned? I need to practice hands. I need to post something more regularily. Fan art is fun, and a good learning exercise.
Wacom and Painter again… I need to find that power supply for my old scanner.
Sketch 12/07/08 - More Fan Art
December 8th, 2008Almost didn’t post a sketch tonight. The toilet backed up and I had to go out and snake my sewer pipe. It was a series of events that I’d rather not go into. Yes, I’ve done this enough times that I have my own power snake to snake my pipes with.
Tonight’s is a piece of fan art for Evil Diva by Pete Menotti (writer/creator) and Brinson Thieme (artist). It’s one of the web comics I read on a regular basis.
Back to the Tablet PC and ArtRage. Painter and my Wacom are acting weird lately.
Google Confusion
December 7th, 2008Google has this feature, start typing and it tries to guess what you’re typing. This morning I started typing… I can’t remember what, but it started with the letter “i” and it suggested “indian railway”. I just spent a couple of minutes trying to figure out why I’d searched for Indian Railways. Indian music? Sure, but railways? I’m not into trains.
