What a evil word! Man I should of known its meaning! So what Tay is that woman plotting the destruction of? You? Me? The world? In other non-related news (see segway Par!) the MMFt touney is finally starting (finally after 4 months!) and I already know who is going to win. Not me.

This is the future champion

Yep no way around this he is probally going to win.

Don't want to burst your bubble Pete but Tay and Eric were American Apparelling us a few weeks already. Tay even cyber stalked one of the models Shayne for a while now. We are already on Grand Arms Panzerfaust. We might be moving onto either Angelus or Blitzmeister. Tee Hee!

well, happy pi day. I doubt i'll be able to join you all for pie though... this week is going to be a living hell for me. awesome! allergy tests, a presentation and a budget to do today, fixing a filling on wednesday, and no sleep for alison



but maybe not sleeping will be good for me... then i don't have to worry about dreaming about people i'm not supposed to... ah, nevermind... you don't need to know this.

What the hell does "Machinations" mean?

Happy Pi day!!

Tay I kinda already knew that trick. For glowing stuff I usually set a layer at 40% opacity then I use a airbrush at 30-50% pressure. I then outline a "light area", however this only works for that glowing gem/beam saber effect (not very subtle but it gets the job done). The mentioned colouring technique you mentioned is useful, though I haven't found a use for it in my style of colouring. It seems the school of mecha artist only know about blatant effects and not the school of subtle colouring. It is kinda of strange that I only got the Wacom 4 months ago and I'm probally drawing and colouring better then I ever could in high school. This plus the fact I haven't even drawn a picture since the end of high school. And while I'm here happy Pi Day!/ White Day!/ Birthday Chris!

Looks like my buddy Shane is at it again:
The 3rd Edmonton Toy Show

The American Apparel store on Whyte is now open. I'm not sure if anyone else discovered this yet, but I picked up a sweet ringer this weekend and thought I would share the love.

So much joy:

oh hey Al, here's a photoshop trick I used in that picture that you might find useful:

Select the layer that contains your line drawing and push the "preserve transparency" button. Once you do that, you can paint on that layer and only the lines will change colour, not the transparent "negative space" between the lines. This is handy for light effects; it gives the illusion of things "glowing" in light. You'll notice that a lot of my lines are actually coloured. ie: the lines on the pillow are coloured yellow, the line on her ass is dark blue, her eyes are dark green, her lips dark red, the lines of her thighs a tan colour, etc, etc. I used the above stated technique to do all that. Try experimenting with colouring your lines and you might be surprised how much of a difference it makes!

Albert draws the mechanizations of destruction, I on the other hand draw the machinations of destruction:






It's all the same really...
