New sketches!

I can't seem to fall asleep. (Sorry Nay!)

It is currently 5:30am and I'm just doodling away, sketching the time away. It's such a shame the nighttime is when I feel this sudden burst of inspiration to actually sit down and draw something. I guess it has a lot to do with the fact of finding nothing else to do, although it's practically no different from other times of the day...Taking in consideration I am still without a car until I get everything sorted out with my registration sticker.

This late night adventure did have its benefits. Two new sketches have come to fruition and I'm actually quite proud of them. It seems I am taking a liking in increasing the girth of the outside lines in my sketches. I've always liked that style.

I can't seem to think about things to write although I really want to fill this whole damn page with words. Maybe the inspiration was short-lived and died as soon as I let go of the pencil and laid my hands on the keyboard...I'm sure it's in protest of me not playing WoW. CURSE YOU, HANDS!

The first sketch is my undead rogue, Xheoul.

Second one is some random zombie. -Braaaaaiiiiiiiiinnnsssssssssss....

Stop Uwe Boll!

I've found this neat little petition:
http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/petition-sign.cgi?RRH53888

I signed it and you should too. With one million signatures we may be able to stop his reign of terror and horrible...HORRIBLE movies.

The Maxx





The Maxx has always been the most memorable superhero for me. Superman cartoons always bored me, and while Batman was a always a badass, the whole rich superhero thing never really impressed me. The Super Friends are extremely lame. The X-Men were cool (in the comics) but it always had way too much drama with the whole love triangle thing they wanted to shove down our throats.

Then, there was The Maxx. I remember scratching my head in puzzlement every time I saw this show starring a blond chick (Julie) that would occasionally visit a tall, muscular hobo living in a tiny cardboard box in an alley where it always seemed to be raining. Delving into every character's dementia, having them always show their alter egos was always kind of intriguing.

For old time's sake...

My first AMV

Aliens, Mechs, Pigs!

I've been playing a lot of Plants Vs. Zombies lately so Nayka decided to get me out of that routine and have us sit down and watch a little movie called District 9.

While the plot is completely predictable, I would have to say this is one of those rare movies that grace the cinema world with its sheer awesomeness. Not only does it show both sides of the coin in one movie, but in the end it all comes together in harmony, forming one huge fuckfest of epic proportions. You start liking characters one second, then completely hating them the next...Only to have them redeem themselves and have their story touch your heart.

Of course, District 9 is not about rainbows and have aliens warm your soul while they pick flowers in a garden. There's plenty of blood and gore. People exploding, being impaled by sharp alien hands, mechs tossing pigs at people (yeah, its that awesome). Yeah, we're the main bad guys in the story...But not all humans are corrupt, see. They always have the big corporations be the bad guys in Sci-Fi movies which obviously leads to people saying this movie is a cliché...But what is more cliché than what, to be honest, would happen in reality if mankind was in the same position as in the movie?

I loved District 9 and I pray that they release a sequel (and have the aliens lay waste to planet earth.) Yeah, I wanna see a movie where everything gets blown to bits and doesnt have that same bullshit about the human spirit overcoming every obstacle. They're pissed off lobster people with lazers...Fuck mankind.


That there cute little fella is Christopher. One thing I have to admire about whoever designed the aliens in D9 is the ability to have them convey emotions so easily by just using their eyes. It's truly amazing work.

Depth Mercenary



The fruits of my boredom (or slight madness?) have finally matured. Been at this for almost 4 days now...Granted it's not amazing work but I do enjoy how it came out. Don't ask for the background...I'm horrible with backgrounds. The idea of merfolk has always been fun. From the swamp monster (which is KIND OF a merfolk I guess) to D&D to Zoras from the Legend of Zelda. They've always been fun. Aquatic creatures in ancient sunken cities worshiping forgotten sea gods? Sign me up.
