Ah Rango. Can't wait for that to come out! It's not very often that a reptile is a main protagonist. Nice job on this! The shading and the colors are perfect, and I like the cartoon look of it. ^..^

AWESOME. xD

Lizards were probably my first 'favourite animals'.

I also always wanted to know how german sounds for 'outsiders'. I'm still pretty curious. :I

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-02-15 01:24:18 +0000 UTC]

My first "favorite animals" were cats, but it wasn't until a couple years ago that I realized my affinity for reptiles was way stronger. XD

I absolutely love the language. I love the way it sounds and how it just looks written down. XD I'm trying to learn it on my own, because my high school doesn't offer classes in it. It's coming along slowly, but I've been told that my accent is pretty darn good. I love randomly speaking with a German accnet.

paracritter In reply to LieutenantHawk [2011-02-16 22:34:56 +0000 UTC]

Haha, nice. xD

Cool to hear. 8) I think german's pretty hard to learn, though. I mean, all the articles, cases and whatnot, let alone the ridiculous dialects. I'm glad I'm already german so I don't really have to learn that language. 8U I'm not good at learning languages anyhow. I can only speak german and english. I've had Portuguese lessons for a few weeks but had to quit them because of time pressure.

Kudos for learning it all by your own, my friend.

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-02-17 03:52:22 +0000 UTC]

It's not that hard compared to other languages. I mean, English is rooted mainly in German, so although there are differences, they are very similar. German is more difficult with the masculine/femenine words and everything, but English is hard thanks to the fact that every "rule" of the language is broken quite often. XD

Heh, thanks. I like learning on my own, but it is difficult to learn something like this without instruction.

paracritter In reply to LieutenantHawk [2011-02-23 15:52:08 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah, I'm always surprised when I read something of which my english teacher told me "don't ever do that!". xU It's so confusing.

God, I HATE learning things on my own. I always shut down when I have to do that. I remember things ten times better when there's someone around telling me how things work. I'm a little dependent for that matter. :/

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-02-24 21:00:01 +0000 UTC]

Yep. And translation can be confusing too, because there are sayings and stuff that just don't sound right in the other language. XD

I like learning on my own with some things--that is, things that I like. If it's something I've got a lot of interest in, I don't want someone to tell me how I should be teaching myself. For me, that's just part of my personal learning process--learning how to learn. XD But regarding things like, say, core subjects in school--math, science, etc.--I need instruction, 'cause my brain just doesn't work that way.

paracritter In reply to LieutenantHawk [2011-02-25 00:31:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh god, totally! D: When I try to tell my mother something I heard on the web and translate it for her it isn't funny anymore. :U

Yeah, learning stuff about things you're interested in is much more fun than learning for school subjects anyway. It usually happens that when I really HAVE to do something I hate doing it. But I guess I'm not the only one there.

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-02-25 01:15:38 +0000 UTC]

Heh, my mom doesn't even think the stuff I quote from the 'net is funny at all in English. XD

It is difficult. I've really had to reach outside my comfort zone and apply myself in school lately; it's hard for my creative mind to grasp more logical concepts. I just have no real sense of precision, so when it comes to math and science--perhaps the most precise things in existance--I tend to get lost easily.

I always spoil the punchline when I'm quoting. xU

Same here. I like doing things by the book if they're not all too complicated to understand. But some subjects are just... ugh. "I'll stick with the creative and artistic things instead, thank you."

I do to sometimes. I usually wind up rehearsing the joke in my mind before actually telling someone. XD

Totally. My mind just doesn't work like that. I can't understand how I've survived in the advanced math classes so far. O.O

paracritter In reply to LieutenantHawk [2011-02-26 17:49:45 +0000 UTC]

I do that too, but eventually I always end up spoiling everything. xD

Me too. D: School is getting harder and harder. I'm seriously considering getting a job. :/

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-02-26 20:40:51 +0000 UTC]

I think the main cause of that is overthinking the joke... For me, at least.

I plan on getting a job this summer. I also have an opportunity to work in an art studio, so I really want to do that too. And this autumn I want to work at the local Renaissance festival. XD

paracritter In reply to LieutenantHawk [2011-02-26 21:24:47 +0000 UTC]

Awww, art studio? Take me with you. ;_; I'm sure I couldn't find anything creative if I tried to. Being an artist is more like a hobby. If you are able to make it your job you're really lucky.

Heh, good luck getting those airline tickets to the U.S., 'cause I'm not paying for them. XD I plan on getting a job in graphic design--it is hard to get employed just to do art, but graphic design is a practical art that no company can really go without.

Baww, what a shame. xU Well I guess I wouldn't board that plane anyway. I've never been in a plane before.

You have a point there. My mom told me her company needed a new logo. And she wanted me to design one. ME. I don't know if I'm good at it. Plus my mom hasn't shown her boss the work I've done so far yet.

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-03-01 01:35:52 +0000 UTC]

Really? It's actually pretty fun... And I'm not at all the kind of person who just enjoys stuff like that--simply watching a rollercoaster makes me sick. XD But riding airplanes isn't bad.

Hm... Well, if you want, I could help a bit. I'm already in the highest level Graphic Design class at my school; I could help you come up with a good idea or something.

Oh god I love rollercoasters. <3 Well, the ones without the loopings. The speed is heady. It's a hundred times better than drugs. Seriously kids, don't do drugs. Ride rollercoasters.

That would be awesome. I'm gonna clean it up a bit and show it to you tomorrow (It's laaate here :I).

I tried to search for a fitting phrase for my mom's business, but I couldn't find one to save my life. I hope this is enough: [link] It's a german site but I doubt you'll have problems with it. |D

*yawns* Oh man, curse this addictive art site.

Heh, it's not even 8:00 here yet. XD

Hm, I can't think of a phrase at the moment, but I'll think about it.

Seriously. I love dA. XD

WELL...

[link]

this is what I've accomplished so far. Simple but not boring & blue/white. 8U The lines are pretty wonky but it's just a sketch. An idea.

Remember that you don't have to help me. Don't take the time if you have better things to do. I'm really appreciating your help though! <3

LieutenantHawk In reply to paracritter [2011-03-03 03:21:02 +0000 UTC]

I like it. It's a good, strong design. I know it's only a sketch but I would suggest making the letters more of a typical, perhaps a somewhat industrial sans-serif font. I think that would fit better. But as far as the color and the overall idea goes, I think it looks great.

Hey, it's my pleasure. If I want to get a job in the field of Graphic Design I need to learn how to critique stuff like this. Plus, I just like to help people... I plan on being a missionary later in life. XD

Nice. xD

Thanks for the crit! It won't help much anymore, though. :U My mom told me they decided to stick with the old design. But she also told me that they COULD change their mind if I made a better one. I don't believe that, though. Remains to be seen if I keep working on it...
