curent updates of my week will

so I'm trying really hard to start doing portraits for money. i sorta need to make aprox. $360 to pay for some stuff.
so i need practice with portraits.
thus i shall be doing you tube portraits! :D

do you have a you tube acc.? with videos in it? do they have YOUR face in them? why then just subscribe to my profile and i might just do a portrait of you!

Might being the word of choice. i get to choose when and who i do for A, i pick at random. B i need a half decent shot I'm not gonna draw someone with some retarded look on there face cause they can't make a straight face at a camera. C, i have time restraints.

anyways I'll be starting later on this week, taking a two week brake at the end of next month because of rock camp. and then I'll be back at it, hopefully by then I'll be selling them as well.

and I'm not to bad right now anyways, so if you want to pay $15 for a line art portrait. (additional pricing for additions such as toning and ink.) and you live in Halifax or feel comfortable sending me the money first. then leave me a comment in my e-mail in box.

my addy is Melontheman@hotmail.com

anyways, to add to awesome. I'm reading some sandman books i got from the library. I have been Waiting for YEARS to read these books. they are deliciouses. they should be mandatory reading for all art students.

also I'm working on Project PIXYZ again right now. i finally got my computer back from the dead. every thing's safe. and i've got some fresh ideas to add to the story, make it better then it was before.

and MHC part one is finished. I'm diving into the new chapters with a totally new page layout and Colour!

that's all for today. here's something cool looking.

my brain needs to stop projecting

sorry for not posting in such a long time, no real excuse. but here i am again. back in action.

you know, even though I’m not big on blood and gore especially the graphic stuff the Silent Hill movie pleased me. I recently saw it with the majority of my family (it's a real good family movie! :D... if no one's like 12. lol) and it really was a great horror, but i recognized so many elements of suspense/thriller in it. which i think is what made it and the games so good (I’ve only ever seen SH4 being played, but popular opinion supports my statement!).
I also liked that the blood and gore was (to an extent) not glorified and it really was creepy and disturbed. that's why i want to see a horror, because this shit does disturb me. and emotion is the base meaning for all artwork.

anyways, i also hit 7K hits with my DA that's 3 thousand hits in like... two and three quarter months. or something like that. I’m pleased.

also i have another project (project DH)... yeah i need to prioritize, but this one wont go into actual production till i get everything around it set up. (like a website, and the script, and the character designs. probably not for another year or so.)
but i got some more done on the PIXYZ books i actually have the beginning of the first and last book but not the middle book that one's going to be a little hard to start off. A+ people this is going to be A+

that's all for now really. oh and here's the drawing i did for my 7K hits at DA...

lame i know, but i wanted to practice colouring. you can see a larger version on my DA acc.

simply about life.

so today, i look at the family dog... he is getting fat, i swear were spoiling him to much...

anyways. not allot of exciting stuff going on. school, lazing around. i got a bit more done on my PIXYZ books. and I'm doing a 12?... yeah about that, a 12 page comic using the original script for the movie 'Stay' i feel it would be good for a portfolio to put a few of the better pages in it. for diversity.

also I'm wondering if anyone has any links to some nice blogspot skin codes. simple codes that can be easily edited. or at least codes with markers to show where to put what. i might have mentioned this in my last post... but i don't remember. oh well.

anyways... that's all peace out.

the Duke of rochester

I would just like to drop a quick word about a project and a movie

First the movie. I caught the libertine on the movie networks “on demand” it’s a great thing really, and I get it free so that’s a plus.
Anyways, the movie stars Johnny Depp, wonderful actor no one can deny it. His role as the duke of Rochester was amazing. The character was so perverse and demented, yet I connected to him in the most emotional ways. I don’t find myself to be perverse or demented, but his cynicism was just so prevalent and just overwhelming you can’t help but feel sorry for him, to really wish he had a better mind to believe in something. I swear Depp couldn’t pull that off better the second time. It was just that good, amazing a beautiful. if you haven’t seen it you missing out on an amazing experience.
Though I might add, the whole movie really is perverted, so I don’t recommend it for week stomachs. Or perverts.

On to projects, I’ve begun writing the first of three books in the PIXYZ series. Once I’m done all three I’ll release the second book, followed by the first and then the third. The order is intentional for it explains itself out in the order. Also this deals with such a large picture that the first book is like a prologue to the second, As is the third an epilogue.
Anyways
Goodnight.

So above me (me being this paragraph [OBVIOUSLY]) you can see a comic page! now what is this comic page of? Two gods! The goddess of life and death, and the god of knowledge and all that mathematical stuff (as he puts it himself).

Okay so the pacing in this page isn't A+ (more like a B- or a C) but this was just me having fun.
as well, this peace would not go under project balance rather it would go under project PIXYZ.

IN OTHER NEWS!
Remember HOLIDAY OF THE LIVING DEAD, I lost allot of the film files when my computer went kapoop. So now all I have is the action seen and a few scraps... so I’ll put that together eventually and post it on you tube as "Buddy the vampire slayer" though I don’t know when I’ll get that done.

What else... oh yeah, I want to do a newspaper strip. Get my name out there a little more. Alas I can't write newspaper quality jokes... I don’t know why, it's just not in me, I need plot I need substance; I need story arcs that intertwine! I like to play with my readers too much... sorry about that, it's just the truth.

But I’ll look for someone who can help me at least get into the groove of writing newspaper funnies, either that or read allot of newspaper funnies and be like I learn the way of the funnies!
Anyways yeah... family guy is on the TV and now I can't think of anything else...

Peace.
