I accidentally stumbled upon one of your works (9 muses, to be exact) and in my mind I was: "Oh wow, that's such a cool style and interpretation, that definitely inspired me to draw 9 muses in my style and add that into my collection as well". With those thoughts I closed dA and moved on. But there's something that made me go back several times and finally look through your other works. (I'm glad I did!)
Now, as I'm sitting here after looking (and reading) at some of your work, admiration spiked up. What I also was curious about is Β whether or not you considered making merchandise from your work (like stickers, badges or even small cards, like a trading-card-game type of cards)? With how much you've made (and how well it's actually done), I have no doubt that anything you'd make will be successful even beyond dA website . Now forgive me my ignorance if you've done that already and I just skimmed and didn't notice.

While I am flattered nay humbled by your praise, sadly that would not be possible. The art is not mine, as I stated in the bio section, I merely used an avatar creator, Tektek(now gone) which uses the GaiaOnline sprites to create "dream avatars." It my younger days I utilized Tektek to create characters, as I got older my passion for it waned. I am not an artist per say, I am a writer. Creating stories is my forte.Β

Ah well, you could create your own style and redraw by hand or use photomanipulation (assuming you'd be willing to learn). Then again, why not write a whole book or separate novels and utilize these avatars for visuals? Even if you used a tool that's not necessarily yours by right, it's apparent that you devoted your time and energy into creating a whole mini universe. It'd be a shame if you didn't share your outlook with the world, is what I'm saying. There are quite a few out there who are immersed into mythology and fantasy (which aren't exactly easiest concepts to work around with), so, your contribution would be appreciated by artists and readers alike. In any case, wish you luck! Β

My dream, my goal was to eventually create a great mythos of my own characters and things but it didn't pan out. I don't wanna say I gave up but I effectively did. I have long moved on from it now I suppose..

Hey Galactic-travailler, long time no see. I've been out for a long time due to school, real life, and personal needs, so I haven't been able to do some art for you. I'm sorry about this.
The good news is I'm planning to write some profiles for your characters in the Spectrum League picture.
The bad news is that tektek.org is currently down, so no more avatar-making DX

Think nothing of it friendo, it is good to see you again. I have to say I have all but given up on all of this I am sad to say. But I don't mind helping you. Yes, when tektek changed formats, I lost all the saved links to various avatars so it kinda put a damper on things.Β

Ah well thank you. Sadly there will likely not be any in the foreseeable future however, just these relics of a past age.Β

The Great Yokai king's Empire? Why thank you. I am very proud of it. I have been working on a squeal(sorta) it's basically the rest of the feudal japanese demon realm. Creatures not under his control...I really should finish it.Β

What a curious question. Well I enjoy most of the gods for various reasons but well my patron god(the one i worship) isΒ Thoth, he is Egyptian. What about you? have you a favored deity?Β

CleverMessenger In reply to The-Mad-Collector [2013-10-10 14:29:22 +0000 UTC]
Yes, definitely, and If you follow the Egyptian/Greek crossover thingy, I 'look up to' Hermes, I also love Thoth! Honestly, I really just 'believe' in the whole of the ancient pantheon, so Egyptian, Greek and Norse, Roman to I suppose.
I scrap part of my lunch to Aeolus to 'keep it cool' and Hermes to aid in fleet footedness.
I'm weird, but I'm definitely not an occultest.

There is nothing wrong with being an Occultist my friend, some of the greatest minds dabbled in secret knowledge. That's all occult really means, secret knowledge not known to most, hidden throughout the ages. Abraham Lincoln was an occultist.Β Isaac Newton ,Β Plato ,Β Arthur Conan Doyle ,Β Nikola Tesla Β just to name a few of the most well known persons. Who are we to really say what is real and what is not, the point is belief and the power of choice to pick what you want to allow into your mind, heart or if you prefer soul. I am a solitary eclectic pagan, whom at some important periods and times of need, kneel down in front of my alter and pray for answers, granted sometimes they go unanswered but I still like to keep that "delusion" of someone, something out there beyond our understanding.Β

That's very sweet, yes I understand, better then most, it is hard being something different in this world, humanity hates differences, if it didn't there would be no bullying, "racism" or bigotry. I put Racism in quotation marks because race doesn't exist, it is a construct of man, and further proof we as a species hate difference. A man from taiwan is no different from a woman in russia, they are bothΒ Homo sapiens. I wish you much luck in yourΒ spiritualΒ path. Β Β

Oh my gosh, you have got to be the smartest online person in the world! I'm so glad I've found someone that understands my views on the world. Check out my hymn to Hermes in my journal.

Hahah now lets not go inflating my ego any further. Trust me love, if you open yourself up enough, the right person will walk into your life whom understands you. if you want you can note me on here to continue this conversation, or if you have any questions to ask, or things you want to learn, I shall do my best to illuminate, I suppose I am a teacher of sorts, a guide. To those whom need guiding or simply those whom want to learn to guide others Β
