So, I've been kinda quite lately. Well guess what, I was being a student. Buuuut now that I got all my projects out of the way, I'm finally finished my college career. As of May 22nd, I'll officially be a graduate.

The recent deviant uploads are my school projects and I hope that ya'll will enjoy them as much as I enjoyed doing them.

I look forward to what's ahead: finding a job/internship, getting my foot in the art world's door, and becoming more independent.

I stole this from Jay. If you have issues with anything I say, feel free to send him hate mail.



1.Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, and find line 4.

"...words were easy, but as he said them he reached out with the Force to..." Ooh la la.


2.Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you reach?

The edge of the table and my fish bowl.

3. What is the last thing you watched on TV?

NFL and the old Clone Wars series.

4. Without looking, guess what time it is:

2:56pm

5. Now look at the clock. What is the actual time?

2:46pm. Lame.

6. With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?

The wind knocking the wreaths around outside.

7. When did you last step outside? What were you doing?

Yesterday night, coming back from the movies.

8. Before you started this survey, what did you look at?

A picture of the Sistine Chapel.

9. What are you wearing?

PJ pants I made in middle school, camo "Ha now you can't see me" shirt, and a green hoodie.


10. Did you dream last night?

Yeah. It involved me yelling at my roommate as we drove around in my truck.

11. When did you last laugh?

A few minutes ago at the stupid things people put in the Clone Wars series from the old movies.

12. What are on the walls of the room you are in?

Uh, Tuscany paintings you get from Michael's or someplace. I'm in the kitchen.


13. Seen anything weird lately?

Saw Madagascar 2 last night. Although the bouncing shark was my favorite part, it was very very weird.

14. What do you think of this quiz?

Like Jay, surveys are my weakness.

15. What is the last film you saw?

Madagascar 2.

16. If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy?

A nice but humble house, a truck and possible 1969 green stingray. Then save the rest so I don't HAVE to have a job that I don't want to do.


17. Tell me something about you that I don't know about.

Considering that about 98% of my dA friends don't know me in RL, I'd tell them that I'm kinda tall. Or at least, it's tall compared to the average boy height these days.

18. If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?

Create population laws. Limit the amount of babies a couple can have, only after they have taken tests that prove they will be good parents. All others, offspring and parents alike, will be shipped to the moon.

19. Do you like to dance?

I like to dance when dancing is the last thing people are thinking about doing. Like at work. <3


20. George Bush:

He's a very nice man. He's quite knowledgeable about boots and liked my cowboy hate.


21. Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?

A mistake. HAHA. I kid kid (or do I?) I don't know, I've never given much thought for a girl's name.


22. Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?

Liam, Jesse, Ben, or Adam.


23. Would you ever consider living abroad?

Living? Not likely. I rather enjoy living in America. I would loooooove to travel abroad and study the ancient cultures, though.

24. What do you want God to say to you when you reach the pearly gates?

"They were wrong; all your pets are in Heaven."

I've been up to stuff. Like drawing stuff and college things.

See what I did there?



So it's that time again where I feature a friend of mine and their purty art. This time around is dear ol' Randy "Rantz" Kintz. I feel in love with his feminine forms and when him and Mud started doing co-ops, I think jig-dancing ensued. As of now, I own the collaboration sketchbook (my bible to Rantz work) and three of their prints (Witchblade, Batgirl, Ninth Order promo).

Anyhow, to really appreciate Rantz's work, his talent for line and human anatomy, go check out his stuff.

Unrelated to Rantz's sexiness, here's my actual rant. Lately, I've been reading HP - Order of the Phoenix and since I just got a tablet for Christmas (zomgitsawesomefun), I've been wanting to draw guys like Snape and Sirius (not my Sirius), and the like. But every where I go to look for reference pictures, I'm hit with bagillions of spoilers. So I'm pretty sure I know what happens to Snape thanks to pingpong balls that don't post spoiler warnings.

/rant.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

This Week:



The Mighty Mudcat

Life requires a new update. So this time around I wanna feature a friend of mine, a colorist. I first met this guy on the Top Cow forums, showing off his work and since then I've been keeping tabs. Even though he'll tell you a monkey would color better than him, his colors are awesome.

I'm always in awe of the skin tones he comes up with. Lately, he's been doing some pinups for his buddy and fellow artist, Randy Kintz (he'll be next time's feature) that just show off how well he grasps color theory.

Some of my favorites (keep in mind that he is credited with the colors, not the whole image):
