I <3 Kevin Smith!

Omg, so I just came back from seeing Kevin Smith (or Silent Bob to those less informed :P) and he was absolutely hilarious! I don't think I've ever laughed so hard before, or so for long! It was worth every penny, even if I had to leave early to catch my train :(

And I'm glad, 'cause I had an excellent time with ~DestinyEiko, who also loved it :D And I hadn't seen her in so long, so it was a really good day all-around (despite the stress caused by trains both there and back :P but that's life!)

In art news: I uploaded the new Dirge page, nothing really special there. I meant to do it last night, but after just coming back from a long-weekend trip to my sisters I was quite behind on internet things, so I ran out of time to touch it up on Paint Shop Pro. God, I miss Photoshop. Someone buy it for me? :)

That's about all from me for now :D

Finally~

Oh my gods... I finally cleared out my inbox of new deviations x_x; I had 600+ over a 6-month period, not mentioning journals and such. But now I'm finally done :D

In art news, I have coloured the next Dirge page, and the one after is half-done. Since no one answered my serious question about colouring them, I've decided to carry on but with less attention to detail. Many new sketches have been created, as well as some good pictures on their way to you soon.

~JennyGodin's Challenge Status:
So this is to follow the status of the challenge that :iconjennygodin: set me a little while ago, to create a picture will 'all' my OCs on it. This is proving to be quite the challenge indeed, as I've only just realised how few of my characters have actually been drawn (strangely enough, more 'Darkness' members than 'Lightown' villagers). At the moment the current stats of the picture are: 0 are coloured; 20 are inked semi/fully; and 12 are sketched, with 14 from Lightown; 17 from Darkness; and 1 ambiguous (:batman:)

Well, I'm off to see Kevin Smith tomorrow night with a friend, ~DestinyEiko... I hope he rocks our socks off :D though I'm sure he won't disappoint ^^

That's all I can think of at the moment, so I'll stop talking for now!

Oh, and this is more for my benefit than anyone else's, but I found a very useful FAQ entry, which I though I would stick here if someone wants a look at some useful code :D
FAQ #81: How can I make links to other deviants, deviations, or websites?

Working hard~

Hi all :D

I haven't uploading much for a while, and when I do it's fairly spartan. (Madness?- *slaps self*) But I want to let you all know that I am currently busy drawing :D Quite a lot, infact! I've only uploaded up to Page 72 of Dirge, although I currently have up to Page 79 drawn in one way or another. 78 and 79 are currently just rough plans (the first time I've planned before drawing a page o_o but that's mainly because I was on a long car journey at the time with nothing but scrap paper and a biro :XD:) but 73 should be ready soon...

I'm still struggling with whether or not to colour these new pages... production will go a lot faster if I don't, but I have no idea just how clear things will be to you, the viewer. Colours play a big part in character identity with this simple style, so i wonder just how well it will survive without. I really need some feedback on this, so please leave your opinion in the comments!

My biggest project right now was given to me as a challenge by my long-distance Onee-sama, ~JennyGodin, to draw a combination of all my characters! Anyone that's seen my gallery will know that's quite a list, so I've decided to make it an A3-sized project based on Dirge. I'll be getting all the well-known (... to me, anyway >_> ) characters in there, as well as some lesser-known ones too... expect some premiere appearances! :D
I estimate I have around 50+ original characters connected to this story (which was kinda dumb on my part... I need to strengthen the core cast, rather than keep on making new ones... It's the Heroes-effect: grand ideas that I just can't keep up with), but I certainly can't fit quite that many on, considering how much space has already been taken up... so expect something more around 20. Still, it's probably the biggest project I've ever undertaken, so it will take me a while, even without procrastination!

Not only that, but I'm still trying to make my cosplay for the London Expo. It's my first ever self-made costume, and the first time I've ever made clothing for that matter, so it's quite a challenge! Under a month left and I haven't even begun on the real thing, just practicing on a mock-up. I certainly won't have all the accessories ready, but I might be able to go in the costume on its own... so wish me luck o_o; I'll need it.

I don't really know what else to put. Still have over 350 deviations to sort through D: Please be patient... and I'd love to hear back from you, so please comment ^.^ Take care!

Ever wondered what the heck Dirge is all about? Wanted to know what inspired me to start or why people can do what they do?

Well, now is your chance to ask me, the creator, absolutely anything you like about Dirge: Chronicles of Midghar!

As there have never been any frequently asked questions before this will be blank until someone asks some, so please, if you want to know anything or just want to annoy me with multitudes of questions, ask away!
