Time to get back on the goat or something.

I WILL FINISH IT.



Think I can do three of these? I guess we'll see. I spent far too long last night trying to figure out how to layout two.

amigad maybe I have my own life again I'm not sure.

I spent the week poking at things but not really making enough progress on most of them to waste bandwidth on.



And I got word last night that this isn't going to be published, which I take as permission to post everywharrrrrrr.

A commission where I was given a script and a lot of free reign - which I then promptly regretted as soon as it came time to do the type by hand. WHHEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeugh.

I'm not out of the woods yet. I'm getting there. Today is reading up for accounting and working on a paper.... tomorrow is another review session for an exam on Thursday. Next week isn't as bad as last week, at least. After that things should be 'ok' until finals.

Then I get 5 weeks off from school yayyyyyyyyyy.

You have no idea how happy I am to have finally got this background working. RAAAAAAAAAAa



And this is nearly done but making myself do the details was just beyond me last night. lol

So you guys are pretty awesome. I had a lot of stuff go wrong in the last month and the little extra income I've gotten from commissions helped so much.

My old tablet broke. The one I bought in 2004 :( So now I have new ones! Plural! I got a medium Intuos4 for home, and the cheapest, sleaziest Bamboo I could find to travel with my laptop. They're not the most amazing things, but they're an awful lot like finding an old friend that I'd lost. Drawing's a lot easier now because I'm not fighting with my hardware.

My car broke. lol. My suspension wore out in such a way that one of my wheels wobbled, like a crummy shopping cart. Made it lots of fun to drive. So I got to pay to have that fixed. BAAAD CAR. BAD.

Yesterday I had a minor medical emergency that I got to pay for up front! AWESOME. PS the best time to get hiccups is when you're sore and nauseous from having a doctor poking around at your organs :(


ANYWAY where this pity parade is headed is: I'm running behind on commissions. Really behind. I have not forgotten you or run away with the money, I'm just up to my ears in shit. I came home from the hospital yesterday and had to lie in bed... and study for my accounting midterm today. And I have a paper due Friday. And a quiz Thursday. Really I have a busy forever.

Actually Breakaway will probably be late this week too...

Thank you for being patient with me. There's light at the end of the tunnel this weekend, but up to that point I have to practice pushing around numbers :(

I'm feeling bad for prioritizing school and I don't know why.

Raaaa why isn't time infinite D:

I get lost on the internet sometimes. You probably know how it is.

Well, I dunno. Been studying for an exam but it's not until next week and if I studied anymore yesterday I was going to explode. Suspect this weekend is going to be fun tho :/

Breakaway makes me realize how completely out of practice I am, so I googled around for figure drawing sessions. What I've discovered is that I suck. lol

Have some suck!

Hahaha still couldn't do a better photo. This is actually only like 12"X18" though, so I think I should be able to just scan it in pieces if nothing else.



And whatever

Well I don't have a working camera at the moment so I took this really fast with my webcam this morning. Little did I realize that HOWEVER MANY MEGAPIXELS were listed on the box still only translates to gross, compressed, rasterized 200px wide image. lol. I'll try to get a better image of this somehow sometime. Basically all you really need to know is I'm having a love affair with Aquamarine out of the tube.

(my mother was apparently jealous that I'm working to fix the painting in my grandmother's bathroom, and requested I 'finish' this one from middle school. I'm not sure if she's aware what she got herself into)



And I finished my dumb doodle so I can move on.

As someone on my friends list said recently 'I have a busy forever'.
