Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

All winners are picked at random! (random.org)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

I am not dead my friends!

Journals / Personal

Hello my dear DA friends!
It`s been a long time since my last visit here, and even longer time since my last post.

First of all, thanks everybody for some many nice comments... and thanks DA staff for the nice support!
I am sorry for being away so much time, I was just taking a little time from the world, to get fat, get older and get more experienced in life being sick again, and again, and again. But now I am healthy, renewed and ready for this new pre-apocalyptic year. I am continuing to work at my Design Studio (FOMA) and now I am a happy owner of a small and brand new Collectible and Toy Store too.

Making films

Things are getting much better these days... I am pursuing an old and long delayed dream that is to make films. I studied by my self for my entire life for this and now I will start walk this path. I hope to achieve something, and I hope I can bring some friends to this dream and help them to be happy with this too... let`s see. In Brazil is almost impossible to work in movie business, so I will try hard and I will finally accept some invitations people make me in this last years.
I am creating a Animation division at my company that will be specialized in 3D, EFX and Stop-motion... we just need I little more $$ to start it.

Well folks that it, I will be sending a lot of messages to my dear DA friends that I didn`t speak this year yet... and will be replying all the nice messages I got from you!

See ya!
