Been Awhile!

Journal Entry: Thu Oct 4, 2007, 10:51 PM


Welcome all you ladies and lads
to my section of DeviantART :nod:


Edit: Sorry if any of you suddenly got a bunch of notifications. I was messing with the journal and I think it went a bit haywire. XD
Wow...

It has been awhile hasn't it? Well I figured I might as well update this journal as it's been awhile since I've updated it, and I have been a lot more active recently. School has settled in and I now have organized some time to be able to work more on my music and art.

After a few recent upgrades in my software and hardware, I am feeling more comfortable with what I'm using . . . that said, I also am now able to create tutorials a lot easier, so if you guys want help on something, let me know, and we'll see if I can help you (as well as others) out!

My current biggest project as far as art goes is getting an animation project that I've had in my mind for years going. For now, we'll call this the "Pengo Project". Those of you who know me in real life have prolly seen me drawing him since as early as 7th grade. Since then (and mostly in recent years), Pengo has been done in pencil, crayon, 3D animation, 2D Animation, pastel, cut out, a sewing project, and many others. But now I have finally reached a time where I feel comfortable enough in my abilities where I can commit to a full animation project. I have started small sketches of the storyboard and will let you know of my progress. For now, I recently posted a small flash file of him walking... but I'll let you guys know soon enough of updates... and I hope to get a time line set up soon.

Thanks to all of you who have read through to this point! It means a lot. Feel free to leave a comment and give me your 2 cents. All feedback is much appreciated!

Welcome all you ladies and lads
to my section of DeviantART :nod:

Please visit the snack bar.
I recommend the OJ!
It's sweet and tangy... Just right!

Enjoy your stay!



Well first off, I have to give a HUGE thanks to Tobyf. He pretty much is amazing. I now have a subscription account because of winning a random draw contest by testing out his game. I haven't been able to afford to renew my account after the last time I had a subscription, so this is very much appreciated.

:VISIT:




So I was lookin the other day at my old account and I figured some interesting statistics:
I have been here now for 3 Years and 4 months. If we add up my old page-views up to my current ones we get approximately 9624 pageviews.

What does this mean???

MINI CONTEST TIME ^_^

If someone gets the 7482th pageview, takes a screenshot, and I verify it... I'll make them something special as a big thanks to everyone for the 10k pageviews

I'll prolly do something special again when this account reaches 10k... but for now, I'm really excited! Thanks a lot everyone for all the support! Wow!



Also... I recently entered a mini-contest via a news thingy. You'll see my stamp at the bottom of this journal saying "I support GOOD news"... Please take a look at it! I hope it does well, as 1st place gets a 1 year subscription... 2nd place - 6 months... 3rd - 3 months. All support for it is much appreciated. :hug:





Goals?! Umm... oh yeah. That might be good to have. Lets see... I have to get some music done soon. I'm slacking! Ugg, I'm gonna be a music major and I haven't touched music since graduation XD. How sad. I need to get Penga and Wigo done... who knows how long that'll
take though.

Some people have also been messaging me for tutorials. If anybody has any ideas for something I could make... let me know! I'm not really sure what I should do!





:fella: My Personal Website :fella:

:fella: TUTORIALS... give me ideas! :fella:

:fella: Modeling my characters. Boy am I lazy? :fella:

:fella: PotC2 Poster... still a secret ^_^ :fella:

:fella: "What mood are you in?" Poster... (This one has been on this list for years. o_O) :fella:


EDIT
OH YEAH! Go visit my sister's gallery.
She just joined DeviART (again) and has
like no pageviews or anything... so

CHECK IT OUT

Doing Better / New Icon!

Journal Entry: Fri Jul 28, 2006, 11:39 PM
I've replaced my Mushroom with Pengo. Do not panic!

:bulletblue: Haha, wow... I'm actually staying on here for a lil bit. Isn't that a miracle? I think I may actually have some of my artistic motivation back. It's slowly coming, but it's better than nothing! Now the only thing lacking is my energy and creativity. It's there, but I just get overwhelmed and have trouble focusing. I don't know why this is. I think I'm just trying to juggle too much. My chair sucks... I need a better one to relax in. Hopefully I'll have a job soon... Then I can renew my deviART subscription :devart: . Yum.

:bulletgreen: Goals: Get a few more Pengo characters done. Get a website up. Get some of my music done. Get a job. Learn to focus. Get a good chair. Get a decent tutorial done.

:bulletred: What's Nex working on? :
- "What Mood Are You In?" ... who knows if that'll ever actually get done.

- My website

- Tutorials

- Wigo and other characters TBA =)

- PotC2 Poster.... heh. Top Secret =)

- Random Modeling.

:bulletblue: So, I've now graduated. Who knows what is next. I know I'm going to college this fall. I know that I have a good car now. I know I have a lot going for me. Hopefully I'll get the time to spend more time here on Dev. It's sure been awhile... Infact... over a year since the last update. Last update was on Oct 16, 2004. ... that's so crazy.

:bulletyelllow: My current online goals... work more on music and art. Actually show people what I'm capable of and now just throw out some candy art (aka stuff that looks nice and impressive, but not WOW)

:bulletred: What's Nex working on?

Journal Entry: Sat Oct 16, 2004, 12:47 PM
:bulletblue: It has been forever since I have updated... way too long. I need to start putting stuff on again. In the time of me being gone, I've also seemed to lost my paid account. Time to buy a new one I guess. At least I still have my prints account. Life is crazy.

:bulletyelllow: I need to work on my webpage... I Have been needing to do it for the longest time. *yawn*... I'm tired.
