...before I go.
MEME - first FOURTEEN people to comment get a feature; continue it in your own journal and add the person you got it from up the top (me, in this case) as I have done for angelmarthy.
Meme is under all the writing, for tidiness.
I will be overseas travelling around Europe and the UK from next week until the middle of March. Internet connection will be unknown, graphics tablets will be unreachable (Luckily I have been getting into training with my pencils... ) I may be online every night. You may not see me until the middle of March (and then I'll be going hell for leather catching up on my Post Grad) (AFTER next week. This is the journal-before-last.)
STUFF
All the pictures I am trying to do for people...
I think all of them, actually, I have a halfway picture waiting to be finished.
eg Yanachii's dragon - all but the head, and I've been trying to do the head for a couple of weeks; Poetic-Dragon's figures; Nickelpat's character portrait thing; my sister's b-day art; a friend's commission...
A couple more I have written down elsewhere but can't remember right now.
Been racing, this last week, to sort out going-away-ness : money, tickets, hostels, relatives... and painting something for a coworker who is leaving (which was unfortunate timing, as that HAD to be done this week, and we only found out a few days ago)
I've been trying and hoping to get them all - or most - finished before I left, but I'm getting to the point where I open the picture, add the background, or body shape or head or... and half an hour later delete it all and sit and stare for an hour, on and off. Then put it away and pull out the next one. I am hoping that the upcoming deadline will push me into finishing at least a couple; and then I will *have* to post them, rather than going "...meh. But is it good enough?"
I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN AND I AM NOT TAKING ANYMORE ON - except for offline personal (ie friends and family) pictures, which I cannot predict and usually take priority.
...I MAY even attempt finishing one or two traditionally, while travelling. I'm not sure if I can pull that off, or not, yet, but it would mean they would get finished sooner.
Newest Watchers</u>
New News Feature Poll
Also. New and old watchers - go leave me a thumb from a picture of yours, and when I have enough, again, I'll run another news article.
<l>-the few people who haven't been featured from the last one, I have NOT forgotten you and will include you in this one. Comment again if you want
-If you don't tknow what to do - just open up one of your pictures and look for the thumb code in the lower right next to the description = : thumb df12451 : and just leave me that code in a comment.
If you want to describe why you like it or why you think it's popular, go ahead. Description is good in features

*prods internet*
I'm posting because it always sort of annoys me a bit to see accounts with journals years out of date.
I'm alive. I'm... not exactly active on DA. Or anywhere except my Tumblr right now, really. I've had a very very busy year or so (overseas trips with no internet, going back to full time study AGAIN and getting a really awesome full time job that the internet loses to. Yes, really. Ha ha, sucks to be you, internet). I've been sporadically painting stuff, but mostly just bouncing back to a flipping huge painting project that I started after Wellington Armageddon last year (I sketched it out on the stall), and just... keep... adding to.

My Little Pony on Threadless (I want your votes)
My first journal in over a year and it's a shameless vote begging journal. *Shakes head sadly and looks disapprovingly at self*
Ah well.
To the point! I just had my first designs accepted for voting at Threadless and need votes to get them printed! They're both My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic designs, and you can see them in this deviation: MLP Abstract Designs
The voting pages are:
Rarity: Rare Elegance
Pinkie Pie: Funfunfun
I would hugely appreciate votes, and if you know of any Brony friends, pass the links along?
I've got dreadful carpal tunnel right now, so this is the most typing I can manage, I'm afraid. But I'd love to get
Freedom and Art. Freedom FOR Art!
I've hardly uploaded anything this year. I used to average a painting a day! I haven't even written a journal since last October.
But I've finally finished university (I even had a summer course, so I haven't NOT had Uni for about two years solid). I've just finished off both diplomas (a distance one and a postgraduate one), and am technically a graduand. Again.
And I finally, finally have time to paint again. I have missed it very much.
Christmas, I started again - and promptly lost my tablet pen travelling around for the holidays to visit family. I managed to buy a new tablet (well, a second hand one - an Intuos 3) which is bigger and b
Armageddon Is Over. The World Has Endeth
Hah. Just actually updating to say I wrote four - yes, FOUR - blog posts about Auckland Armageddon over the last few days. I am still utterly terrified of my inbox, and have two assignments and an exam due within the next six days. After which is sweet freedom, but until then... suffering and absence.
Blogposts for those interested (art and photos may be cleaned up and submitted her on DA, eventually ;P and I have more photos to upload) all under the Armageddon tag.
