Is it sad that I've been on deviantart for something like four years and only have 3k hits?

Anywho...

Developing new coloring techniques that are leading me in the absolutely right direction with my art, a direction I've wanted to go for some time now. I'm multitasking on something like a thousand projects right now, including re-doing old works that I loved but feel I could do better on, lineart and coloring for my fiancee's comic project, conquering the mouse when it comes to lineart, eating up tutorials like Pez, finalizing the script for my Leviathan project, working up character designs for Leviathan, and trying to work out the two requests I had before my access to the internet became no more.

Talk about a truckload.

Have a job interview in an hour.
Squeeeeeeeeee....

Just to let everyone know...

I AM ALIVE.

I am working on things, but work is very slow because I want to do the very best job possible and I'm coloring and drawing everything with a mouse, which means lots of erasing and do-overs.

I am still working on the two requests. I was finally able to get to a library that hasn't banned DA due to the rampant horny furries that roam this website. I am downloading pictures of your characters as well as saving the information on them so I can keep it close while I work on them. I will finish them and upload whenever I can. Since it's been a really long time since I was able to do something, these two requests will be AWESOME. Like creaming your panties with unicorns and rainbows awesome. Srsly.

YOUR REQUEST IS READY!

Hope you like it!

...PING PONG LIPPY-TOPPY TOO-TA.

Enough strange noises with my mouth.
(If you don't get the joke: [link] )

I understand why people limit themselves with requests.

I'm doing a proper piece with proper coloring and lineart tutorials on a proper tablet.

Total time?

Sketch: 3 hours (I had trouble with the hands :S)
Lineart: EIGHT HOURS STRAIGHT T_T
Coloring: Six hours... SO FAR.

AND I HAVEN'T EVEN DONE THE BACKGROUND OR LIGHTING YET.

Of course I'm a newb at the wonderfulness of a tablet... but...

*falls over and dies*

Though, I do have to say, it looks rather good and is the best I've ever done... ever. I'm sure that I'll get faster with time but *sob* my liiiiiiiiiife energyyyyyyyyyyyy draaaaaaaininggggg...

: You owe me your first born child for this. XD

You guys want a screenshot?

WELL TOO BAD SO SAD >:3
This baby's so awesome I'm keeping it locked up until I'm doonnnneee... probably in the next two days or so. Could also be tonight if I take a break and watch some telly to rest.

On a more positive note: I got to see The Watchmen yesterday. Rorschach rocks.

Also: Does anyone know how to make those pretty journal entries that people always have on their front pages that are filled with buttons and cute stuff?

: Sketch done but doing another drawing of couple. 0% complete.

: Sketch done. Lineart cleanup 60%. Coloring 40%. I have questions for you...

: Had a sketch but tossed it because I wasn't happy with it. 0% done.

Just thought I would update you guys on your requests.
