Description
Original art here [link] and floor stock from [link] .Theres a question to you guys a bit further down in the comments, please read it
So yeah, i'd decided i've gone long enough without using my tablet properly so i tried a different technique just to get me into the swing of things. I wont lie, its not far from tracing, but its just untill i get used to the digi-paint method.
Anyway, say hello to bobby the little octopus, he's a fun little chap who currently adorns my desktop - i absolutely love the original peice, and how it screams 'boston accent' for some reason XD.
^ All that has been copy-pasted from the last few days worth of WIPs, and now i think im finally done!.. Maybe.. I may edit it later but i think theres really not much more i can do now... Actually throughout typing these comments im having second thoughts, so i'l leave it up to you guys, shall i make a couple more ajustments or leave it now?
Thoroughly proud of bobby
Oh, and thank you again Emily for giving me this tablet in the first place, its awesome and so are you

Well in a moment of vanity i did google mysself once and found Retro uploaded to someone's wallpaper site, but they didnt tell me or give people any way to link back so im discounting them XD. And thanks, might have to go finish few old projects now and make the most of it XD

Haha yeah I have done the same thing in the past and I found a lot of my photos on a Romanian blog with my name and titles edited. That's one of the reasons I decided to change my watermark. And you should finish it if you feel like it's incomplete, you're quite skilled at digital painting

Haha, really? Mine was probably the first one on the pile tbh, everyone did really good stuff for that unit ^^ And mr davis liked it because it had kodamas in it ^^
Have you started yours yet? XX

Kodamas... *googles* Oh i love princess monoke! X3 THATS where i'd seen them before! That was bugging me for ages XD
Started? Hardly *sigh* I cant get my head into hand-rendering pages anymore, drawings fine but i miss being able to properly toy about with layouts, and more importantly to lazily drift in and out of it, which just doesnt work as well off-keyboard .

Sorry for the late reply >.<
An oh gosh, i know. However, a lot of my work before hand and after than project was digital, and we were all terrified when he told us we had to hand render pages, but you get used to it quite quickly. It's funny how you respond when you're not in your comfort zone. What helped me was making a mock layout in photoshop, and choosing a title font, and then spreading it over a couple of pages Then you dont have to completely plunge into a blank piece of paper
And haha ^^ I love my kodamas <3 They are too much cute
And thanks for following my blog adam ^^ Much appreciated You should do one, it's great to keep all your inspirations in one place
Helped me a lot. I've almost finished one of my uni pieces, i'll post an update soon
And FFXII is moving very slowly indeed. Mainly because me and dom are banned from playing it individually in case the other misses cut-scenes and we seem to find it very very difficult to be in the same place as final fantasy at the correct time ¬-¬ Oh, and dom burnt his thumb making his foundation piece, so that halted it a bit too ^-~
Hope you're well Have you broke up from school yet? XXXX

Thought it was never coming , dont worry though, im a patient guy
Thanks for the tips, i'll need them - I got the work done for friday after a loooooong night because Davis said if we hadnt done it he'd chuck us off (he never asked for it in though, that day or after dammn you for depriving me of my precious sleeeep) anyway most of it was complete rubbish so its gonna need to be done again anyway.
Yay updates! I've got a couple more digi-paint projects coming along and now my sister's letting me use her camera you might just see some pictures out of me too
Whatever you do on FFXII you havnt finished it untill you kill Yiazmat , took me 4 ENITRE HOURS XD. Oh and FFXIII is coming out later this year, as is FFXII Versus and is only about 2010 by the time XIV comes out so you'd best hurry
How'd he burn his thumb? Ouch :s
We actually broke up today , it was a great day, barbacue and games, the boys lost in a tug of war though so grrrrrr XD. Oh no no bouncy castle D: we were too poor after hardly anyone turned up to ball. Thats a point, why couldnt you guys come T_T
(wow giant messages XD)
Hope you're well too xxxx

Haha ^^ I'm sorry
And ohhhh god, im glad he still pulls that evil trick on your year aswell ^-~ He used to say he'd chuck us off all the time get used to it ^~
OOOHH exciting <3 I love your digi paints ^^ You are very clever indeed. I wish i was as good as you One day you'll have to tutor me!
I knowwwww D: Time is runnning out! But i'm not one for butting in and trying to pretend i'm a fan of something i've only just started I'll wait a few months anyway, and it'll be LOADS cheaper then too ^^
He burnt his thumb using a heat gun trying to scorch wood. It's all hard now Poor dommuh!
Awh yayyyy. My sister broke up yesterday too She's only 7 though
I'm glad you had a nice day. I always found last days dissapointing i think. Everyone just wants to bugger off
And me and dom couldn't come because we are saving money for a holiday to egypt, and i am so very poor
Sorry adam >.< Would have came if i could!
I'm grat thankyou mister Very relaxed!

My turn to say im sorry XD, left this here for a day before finishing the comment for some reason .
Tutor you? XD, im sure if you had that reference and a weeks worth of time to blow could make that just as well as i did . But hey if you do manage to get me tutoring you i demand a tutoring back on actually being able to draw and not simply copy XD.
Ouch, poor Dom, well when hes recovered and his works finished get him to upload a picture or two of it so we can all have a look at the fancy university stuffs XD.
Yeah, next to the tear-fest that was the last day last year this one wasnt much, didnt stop it being fun though, and i got to go see a show in the afternoon which topped it all off nicely ^_^.
Ooooh, a holiday to Egypt, very nice . Why'd ya choose Egpyt though? Anyway make sure you take lots of pictures and/or smuggle me in in a suitcase or something XD

XD and.. err.. i dare not hazard a guess either :s - I've been working on it on and off for about 5 days but while sometimes that meant whole afternoons other times it was half a hour peppered with guitar hero... But quite a long time at that, god i hope i can find a school unit later i can shove this into XD
