Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

800 Points GiveawayHello all. As I've mentioned in the poll, I am going to make a small giveaway on the occasion of nearly 1000 watchers! Wooo!
There are 8 winners and 100 points for each to win. BUT the giveaway ends when the number of watchers reaches 1000.
RULES:

To enter, fave this journal and comment below that you've faved it. Then I will give you a number.

You don't need to watch me to enter. But please keep in mind that the giveaway ends sooner when
there are more watchers.

Your account must be at least 2 months old.

You can enter once only. No alternate/plz accounts.
I will choose winners with random.org.
♣ Good luck! ♣
Minor update: changed from 1111 to 1000 watchers.

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

We're having a contest!

This is an art only contest.  Sorry fan fiction writers!  I love fan fiction, but I don't think there are enough pages right now for there to really be enough material for you to work with.  Maybe next time!

Characters that can be used:

Caleb
Lin

Wallace (his new design is up!)

You can also use any side characters from the comic, but the picture MUST include one of these four!

All kind  of art is allowed!  - traditional, digital, dolls, sculpture...whatever you can think of!  But it must be new art for this contest.

The contest ends on Valentine's Day, February 14th!  If you need an extension please let me know!

The Prizes:

1st Place

- Your OC as a side character in the comic

~CheleKat Feb 20, 2012

Woohoo, yay for first year anniversaries!

~akikodate Feb 17, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

~vampire-elf Feb 18, 2012 Student Digital Artist

Okay okay. XD I'M JUST SAYING I worked my butt off to have mine done by the original date!!

~akikodate Feb 18, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

I know and I'm sorry! D:

The person who asked me for the extension did have a good reason so I would have felt bad if I hadn't of given it to them, especially since I know they've been working on their entry for quite a while. XD

~vampire-elf Feb 18, 2012 Student Digital Artist

ah it's fine. XD I understand. And I also don't have to worry about my entry anymore! I can work on your commission!

~akikodate Feb 18, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist
