Ryu that's the best thing about posemaniacs, think of the body as a 3d thing and just sketch them out, you'll suck on filthy pork poo for the first week then you'll slowly slither out from your beginners cocoon into a beautiful noisy cicada :'D

My cat is so fraking weird, she likes to eat go-gurt, mints, and friggin cherrys T_T like real red cherries and i have to hide the pits when i'm done(i have no clue if cherries are bad for cats, most likely are) She won't eat seafood, beef, or chicken pieces that are bigger then my pinky tip but she'll rape my gum wrappers and lick friggin cherries.

Okay… things are getting weird. Whenever I've got a real interest in something I fall asleep. I was really on a roll working on a game project this morning, and then I wake up an hour or two later with my face in my keyboard. And if that wasn't bad enough, even when playing Street Fighter IV I fall asleep (I wake up sitting up, XB360 controller on my lap). Maybe I'm drinking too much coffee which oddly enough also puts me to sleep.

Shit, my head hurts. Oh well, at least I've got my sleeping pattern back on track at last, so I can play Ov- I mean get some work done and clean up a bit. Yes.

My old cat would eat anything, including pencils and my socks, usually while I was still wearing them. He didn't like potatoes though, but that didn't stop him trying to stuff his face with them, he'd just always end up vomiting everywhere afterwards. And rat poison, once.

How the hell the survived for over twenty years is beyond me.

Ugh, this weekend has been boring. One of the few times I've actually felt a bit lonely here. :[ Also I'm waiting for my friend to tell me when the Left4Dead thing will be and I'm worried she's changed her mind or will forget until it's too late here (she's done that before) and I don't get to play.

i'll hangout with you, monkey

Poor munkee. :(

I has migraines for most of the weekend. So most of the time I was in bed. -_-

Just watched another of those DVDs my sister gave me… "Knocked up", with Seth Rogan and some other actors. So his thing is that he's chubby and nerdy? Ah well, it wasn't too bad, I even laughed a bit at times. Every computer in the film was an imac… I'm seeing a trend with a lot of films these days, apparently Apple puts the big bucks into product placement.

I've designed a new tattoo, and i'm just waiting on the verdict from the wife…and also where to put it. I know where i'm not going to put it, cause it's supposed to be one of thoes meaningful tattoo's and if i can't see it, then it defeats the purpose.
Just in case anyone's curious

Stayed up late last night, and got nothing done. pry gonna stay up late again, and get nothing done. I have a 4 day weekend, with 2 days of vacation attached. it's a nice break from work.

hmmm…

i have this weird thing about the cross.
if martin luther king jr. or Muhammad Ghandi come back to life, does he want to see people wearing an image of him with a bullet through his head?

Make sure you buy good paint with female valves ( the kind that if you take the cap off, it doesn't have a little tube coming out of the can. ). Rustoleum is the only stuff you can get at a hardware store worth anything. I might also suggest trying to find some paint caps other than the ones you get with the can. Most of those suck. And if you don't feel like practicing how to control the paint flow till you can do detailed stuff, try making stencils or masking things off with painters tape.

I ended with a blank sheet in front of the wall, so i think that i'm not going to paint….today..but these are nice pointers that i will learn more about and then use.

I've never really thought of it that way. but the one way he proved he was who he said he was, was by showing off the holes. ianno. i'll think about this one.

anyone can die on a cross.
there were dozens of people crucified that day, what set them apart was that Jesus was a humanitarian.

i still think that the cross is a bad religious symbol for him. it should be like open hands or a hand pulling someone up.

Well if that's the case then I'm not seeing any of it.

I just received a fantastic "welcome home" greeting when I came home today. 3 large spiders had turned my front door into a grand spiderweb. I opened the door without paying attention to it and walked right into it.

No it gets the 'imma die for your sins' part across that a very nice man/son of god was sacrificed so that we wouldn't all have to rot in hell because of original sin/silly bitch eve tricked by a snake.

You can always use that fish one i guess.

Posted at 12:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

and that's what's wrong with religion today. people get to wrapped up with the "fantasy" part or "miracle" parts of the bible. I tend to ignore them.

jesus should be an example of bieng a good person…not an everyday battle of hell, devil, God and angels.

i dont battle demons or take a trip to hell everyday, but i do pass by human misery. never seen the devil, but i do see unfairness in the governing system.

90% of Jesus's life was to help others and fight against Tyranny.

Ryu that's the best thing about posemaniacs, think of the body as a 3d thing and just sketch them out, you'll suck on filthy pork poo for the first week then you'll slowly slither out from your beginners cocoon into a beautiful noisy cicada :'D

Just a quick question, do I still use the basic building blocks and stuff? Like, circle for the head, trapezoid (I think that's what it is) for the upper body for a guy, blah blah blah? Or do I just sketch it out without all that?

My legs are pretty sore. I woke up at like, 10:30 this morning, and got ready and ran. I waited a while, and I just got done doing more leg work outs. My legs are pretty sore.

I have 20 dollars too, so with these different kinds of workouts I'm trying, plus with this protein powder I want to get, I should become fairly beasty before school starts up :)

And I'm drawing my comic again, if I already haven't said that.

Posted at 1:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

i knew this was were it was going, which is why i smiled, and said i'd take it into consideration (which i have, i'm actually looking into other designs, but the verse stays)

but i do believe in the "miracle hocus pocus" part of the bible.
————-

Leg work outs

do you ever work your abductors/adductors? the inside/outide of your thighs? those will help with your run and balance.

also i recently learned that walking on your heals, and jumping rope will strengthen the muscles over the shins, and prevent/reduce shin splints.`

Posted at 2:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

nothing wrong with believing in miracles, but it shouldn't be the majority part of any religion.

…prolly shouldn't turn this thread into a debate/discussion thread.

my rant is im off today, but i cant seem to get motivated to do anything creatively

Posted at 3:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

My coloring is getting rusty >_< Wrrrryyyyy

This is the first full page i've colored since 2008 so i guess i shouldn't be surprised, ah maybe all it needs is a little more values and work. *spits and wipes it like a bartender*

On another note the writer i had for this and i broke up since didn't agree on the ending. It was supposed to be a modern re-telling of dr. jeckyll and mr. hyde with werewolf as hyde but it had a death ending that she wouldn't let go of(it was an okay end just not my cup of tea).
Ah well i like the idea of werewolves, off to find a co-writer :)

Posted at 3:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

you'll suck on filthy pork poo for the first week then you'll slowly slither out from your beginners cocoon into a beautiful noisy cicada

If you can find a co-writer to beat that then I'll……

Well you just won't.

Rant: I'm used to my sunhat playing host to all kinds of insect and arachnids but this is too much. I stuck that hat on my head, spent all day at the beach and didn't take that sucker off for eight hours - that's when the huge furry moth that apparently spent the whole day sleeping in there flew out.
I should get that hat designated as a wildlife conservation area.

I swear to God I cannot anymore draw hardcore BDSM type porn.

I literally get pain in the middle of my head as well as literally getting sick to my stomach (physical pain in the stomach).

The thing is, I used to get off on that stuff.

I cannot anymore get off on watching other people get hurt.

Posted at 6:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

Hope you don't mind me throwing in my tuppenceworth here: you could go either way, but structural underdrawing can help to get the centre of gravity right. If I'm drawing from life, I'll often just mark out key points to save time - slant of the hips/shoulders, where's this knee in relation to that shoulder, curve of spine, etc.

Remember you're not just drawing a figure; you're drawing the effects of 1g too.

….

I guess even a fellow Flip could have the potential to draw that stuff (shows how much I know…)

Posted at 8:07PM, Jul. 5, 2009

you know what pisses me the fuck off? when some twerp comes around and drops one single comment on your comic nitpicking some little fucking detail [specially when it's something they've misunderstood.] and they take off. i cant help but think it's a cheap shot,like maby i pissed em off on the forum or something and they're being petty by taking a pot shot at my comic. get a fucking life.

Just got back from the cabin. So we got rid of my air mattress out there, and I was all excited because that thing always leaked and I would wake up lying on a piece of plastic on metal bars(I sleep on the top bunk of a bunk bed). But it turns out the new mattress for me is literally 3 inches thick. So I didn't get very much sleep.
Blegh. Glad to be back home.

I also had a big fight with my friend today. But it turned out well in the end. I think it's good to have someone who I can have the occasional argument with and still stay friends with.
