<EDIT>
So, since I have decided to spend more time working on my art, life has decided that I wont. When I finally got home after an extended working day, the lovely Gauteng thunderstorms (And I do love them.) made sure I had no power. Never fear I though, I have a Mac! But lo and behold, my scanner refuses to install on Snow-Leopard. The rest of the week was a bit of a shit-storm in a teacup. So I guess I'll have to try again tonight.

Sorry for the wait people.
</EDIT>


It's been many moons since I've updated.

Even though I have been actively participating (read - Looking at other peoples Dev's ) I haven't found the time to draw much in teh past year. To be honest, I haven't had much want for making art either.

But I'm back, and scanner allowing I will post a new piece tonight. (Just a quick sketch of my woman, and my first attempt at Manga style, so don't expect much.)

Hopefully, I'll be giving my hobbies more attention in 2010 and the closing weeks of 2009.

Hope all of you are well, and may this festive season inspire you to make many great Dev's which I can then stare at instead of making any of my own

Well, I know it's late (really late) but here are the rules.

The first twenty people to comment on this journal will get featured here, and I will select 3 deviations of theirs to put in this journal.
The only condition is that each artist featured here do the same in their journal.

Well there we go... Waiting for comments. 19 spots available.
Unfortunately no sub = no thumbnails. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

Yes, I shall not altogether die.

I haven't update my journal, or submitted any art in quite a while.

Well, I'm finally finished with my studies, and I have a really amazing job. So in the next couple of months I might actually make some devs again.

Looking forwarding to being active in this area again.

So the point is for me not to do my all out detail-whore 40+ hours kinda stuff. It's about the concepts not the techniques. So it'll be 100 rough concept sketches. Probably a lot like Voodoo that I uploaded, but it might end up being a bit rougher than that.
