Thanks, man! I don't favorite things often, but your style is just really nice. Those raw lines and blocked colors work really nicely together.

Inkcube-Revolver In reply to fend [2013-09-05 01:50:40 +0000 UTC]

Wow, I feel honored. Sorry for the late reply...or is it from the future?! sacre bleu!

Anyways, I appreciate the fave, though I used to be a fave whore, my favorites are just horrifying in number. Your art is so great, I know you've heard it before, but I can't wait to ogle at my computer screen for more.

I regretted not walking around when you's guys were packing up. I walked away from the table once to grab a mimosa, so I obviously had my priorities straight.

It was rad meeting you, too!

I think we should make a deviantart group for Alternative Figurative Illustration/sequential art (I dunno). No Manga/anime or Marvel/DC (though could be inspired by)--stuff that's fine artish but not. By the way, have you ever read anything by Liz Prince?

fend In reply to lotothetrickster [2012-04-23 00:31:37 +0000 UTC]

I never do the group thang. I can't care enough, haha. Spesh dealing with submissions and whatnot. I hide all the submissions from the groups I'm already in. Probs because I'm a terrible person.

lotothetrickster In reply to fend [2012-04-23 00:58:36 +0000 UTC]

Haha, nah, it doesn't mean you're a terrible person. It's just not your thing :D (Big Grin) I asked you when I was addicted to DA. Now I realize I'm way too freakin' busy for group crap anyway.

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention--I found your online comic ARRO. The drawing and the color palette are fantastic! We should trade links, chica.

fend In reply to lotothetrickster [2012-03-21 02:19:17 +0000 UTC]

We ain't been advertising it yet, so it is a little hard to find. We'll start once the first chapter is up.
Thanks a lot for the compliment! Yeah, man, a link trade. If my old site were still up your name would still link to to hyenas fighting.

Hey, Fend! Thanks for watching. I just joined this week and have been drawing My Little Pony fan art to draw in attention. Sadly, I enjoy MLP :/ I was wondering when I'd encounter you again in a realm besides Facebook ;) (Wink)

fend In reply to lotothetrickster [2012-03-12 03:16:12 +0000 UTC]

Aha, I'll admit I am not a "brony" but since I saw you had an account, I had to watch your stuff.

I'm in Chatt about once a month. Do you go back much? Maybe we could Skype or somethin' soon. I think it is fend13th@comcast.net or hotmail.com.

Or if you're ever in Atlanta you should totes hit me up.

lotothetrickster In reply to fend [2012-03-12 13:40:41 +0000 UTC]

I had heard you moved to Atlanta. I only go to Chatt about twice a year. I'll have to get a skype account. We should catch up.

I have copies of vol. 1 and 2 right now to sell at October Fluke in Athens, GA.
If'n you wanted to do a paypal transaction that'd be rad.
$8 for one book or $14 for both, and whatever shipping comes out to.

I'll draw ya something in the back!
