I really like your gallery. It has so many different and interesting things. You create awesome stories for your drawings, and even an alphabet! Where comes so many inspiration?

Umm... it comes from all over the place, but most of my inspiration in the past has mainly been roleplay or stories that my brain drove me to illustrate in some fashion. lol

Most welcome. Love the fursona, by the way.

And thanks. That's the result of me attempting to resurrect rusty art skills via the old pencil, pen, and paper method for the line art versus entirely digitally drawn via tablet. Next week, I plan to start putting more effort into figuring out how to waste less paper by learning how to do the line art on the tablet. We'll see what comes of it. :/

SkyDogAnimations In reply to akatala [2009-09-19 03:30:59 +0000 UTC]

the easiest thing to do is to put your scanner in storage. Then you're forced to draw on tablet.

Use lots of layers so you don't accidentally erase 'the perfect line'. >.<
And memorize control+z and the shortcut keys for pen and eraser... nothing is worse than having to go switch tools when your working on something. I always loose my spot! XD

what programs do you use?

akatala In reply to SkyDogAnimations [2009-10-16 10:13:02 +0000 UTC]

Well the scanner at my new place doesn't work so yeah, I'm stuck with tablet. I just need to find time and ambition to practice. And here I have the opportunity to start learning Adobe CS2.

Happy Birthday


I wish you the best today


Instead of counting candles,
Or tallying the years,
Contemplate your blessings,
As your birthday nears.

Consider special people
Who love you, and who care,
And others who’ve enriched your life
Just by being there.

Think about the memories
Passing years can never mar,
Experiences great and small
That have made you who you are.

Another year is a happy gift,
So cut your cake, and say,
"Instead of counting birthdays,
I count blessings every day!"

The story about your beautiful dog Chewbacca moved me to tears. I, myself, know how it feels to lose a beloved pet. The way I see it, you have made his name eternal. Your photographs are so full of emotion. Keep up the wonderful work! See you around at the OMU, too

The world needs as many photographers as it can get, so as that the people of the age to come can look back at the beautiful world they destroyed....
