Okay, this came as a surprise

...I really didn't expect the Neutral-thingie. Apart from that... I suppose it's okay.? (I don't know anything about D&D though, sadly.) ...but 1 point away from Dwarf? That's hilarious.   Yesterday evening when half asleep I ended up with a human bard, but neutral yet again.

21

Turned 21 today. Which obviously isn't very different from 20. Obviously because over here one is a legal adult at 18 already. As far as I know, at least. =D   Edit: forgot the obligatory "I feel old" xD

2012 Colouring Tutorial

"2012 tutorial" because I might make more of these in the future, who knows.   Aaanyways, here you go!   < click to enlarge [~570 kB] Feedback would be more than kind, and I hope it helps! =D (and I know there are some typos... D: Sorry.)

what a day

had so much work to do - but! I sorta started with working on my master thesis, so that's a plus? Still all weird and new, and of course the first thing I managed to do was accidentally hit myself in the face with some equipment. :> I'm a natural!

new art plan

If I'm out of "own" ideas, I will now resort to drawing fanart. After all, any practise is helpful. :3 Let's see if it helps overcome the current art blocky struggles...

Uncertain What To Do

... draw something? Listen to music? Browse the forums? Finally try to finish that RPG where I'm once again stuck in the middle of the game?   Probably the latter, because I already got the sequel, which I won't allow myself to install before I haven't finished the other game... I mean, otherwise I'll never get anything done. ><   See, that's what happens if you love RPGs but are a sort of mediocre/unexperienced/okay, maybe bad player.   EDIT: OH YEAH finally got around that. ^^

Conspiracy

I always forget that, despite my love for fantasy and wizardry and stuff, I'm really not that skillful when it comes to drawing hoods and robes. And somehow recently the hands always decide to turn out to be either too large or too small. ("That's foreshortening, it's supposed to be like that!" - a younger self, possibly) But! Considering that it's the first drawing in days (due to all the bureaucracy connected with completing one's studies), it's actually quite nice, I guess.   Media: ink pen

SOON

only 1 more presentation tomorrow, then there'll be winter holidays, 3 weeks of relaxing... or more like, 2 weeks because the first one will be entirely devoted to creating & obtaining all the christmas presents. ._. Yay me, I guess.

RPG logic

NPC: "You have to hurry, the fate of the world depends on your being on time!" Hero: "Alright!"   *does several irrelevant sidequests* *polishes chainmail* *buys a new helmet* *buys some healing potions* *checks every corner of the dungeon, explores every dead end* *opens all treasure chests on the way* *goes back to make sure they didn't miss out on anything*   *eventually gets to where they ought to have gone* *enemy apparently waited for several hours to commence* *finally saves the day*   NP

3 years - what happened?

Whilst going through older blog entries in search for a blogging inspiration it hit me how much has changed - I remember thinking I was so mature, but looking back my older entries they all seem somewhat... silly. Or at least way too cheerful. I don't remember being that cheerful! D:   So, what happened? Did university/the end of school really make me so much less cheerful/positive/funny than before? (Hint: the answer is veery likely to be yes)   Have you noticed any such drastic changes about y

Such weekend

Very work. Collapse.   Have to finish my thesis (this weekend), since final, be-all end-all deadline is the 25th of November. Which I know since yesterday. Because of legislation changes they did not manage to inform us about last semeser?? And I only found out about that because I asked a professor, since the web page linked to in the email I received on thursday only mentions September, 30th as deadline? And yet they failed to inform us that in cases like mine there is an extra deadline? In th

science fiction?

Since I am soon going to run out of shows to watch, I thought I'd ask you all about your favourite scifi-shows, and why you like them/what you like about them? Both older and recent shows are interesting to me.   As for me, I guess Stargate SG-1 is an all-time favourite. The characters were great, and despite the 10 seasons there were few "low" moments (although the last season was kind of odd and a certain character was revived a few times too many...). Otherwise, Star Trek. TNG and Voyager ran

Baaaaaack =3

Hey everyone! *looks around*   Hello? Anyone there?   *ahem* sillyness aside, I am now officially back with my internet (yay), will post art soon( yay?), and hopefully get another comic or two done before I, guess what, disappear again.   Sorry I didn't notify you, but BZPower was down for me still when we went on vacation... ah well   So what did I miss?

things that are needlessly complicated

Finding useful hair tutorials for long hair seems to be one of them. (long hair as in really long. End-of-spine length.) Most of the things I can find are for hair that is just beyond shoulder length - but at some point, the weight of the hair actually plays a large role in whether a hairstyle will survive the day or not... *sigh*   So in the highly unlikely case that one of you knows some good tutorials, feel free to let me know!

Playing Morrowind

more like "let me organise and neatly arrange my ever-growing collection of armour and weapons which I'll never use"   Seriously. Ever since I... "acquired" a house I've spent a good part of ingame-time on that sort of stuff.

nope.

didn't get chosen for the practical exam. That's okay, though.   I kinda guessed so. In the end they chose 17 people out of all those that handed in their portfolios - which I estimate to have been around 100, since I was the 48th to apply and that was at the beginning of day 2.   It's said to be rare that people make it on the first try, anyway.

Bzpower Artist Interview #2 - Gavla

That's right, it's time for another artist interview. This time with a brilliant comic artist - Gavla! (Thanks a lot for taking the time for the interview, and for making that awesome banner! =D) So here it is!     When and why did you start making comics?   I was really bored one night. I felt like doing something to pass the time before bed. I had been reading a lot of comics in Artwork III and thought I'd give it a shot. So I did, and I'm glad I did. I started in April 2008. April 8th 2008, I
