Thanks to some great voting counts, i have decided to start making a yaoi manga, with a bara styling(i got the idea from a dream i had).
To my bottom left is the main character: Spider. (more details about him on my DA)
Picture
Whats the storyline, for this new yaoi manga you ask?
Back Story: Spider is spy for: Saxtion Days, and is currently under cover at the worlds most valuable bank: 8 Bank. 8 Bank has a net worth of 48 billion dollars, which makes offen under attack from criminals, Spider always wins and the sexy new CEO always gives Spider a thank you gift (of sexy times o3o)

Now: Spider is finishing of with his gift ;), and is leaving the CEO's office to his suprise he notices something about the CEO new assitant and is then knocked out by an explosion, he awakes in rubble, and quickly notices the assitant is gone and he checks the CEO's pulse, then he suddenly hears the yelling, and see 3 bank robbers, so he grabs his gun and heads down to stop them. 

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE OPENING SCENE?

a CEO profile is coming soon.

Spoiler From: MASKS
dear interwebs, please stop alluring me!

I'm sick of wasting time on here, i mean i got home from work 6 hours ago, with the plan of getting heaps of exhibit art work done, instead i wasted it on facebbook and youtube.

and also i cant work my in built SD card reader, and i think my external hard drive died, which sucks cos i just downloaded all 15 seasons of americas next top model and put it on there, which took me like 3 weeks to download and 50 gigs.

im sick of stupid freaking teechnology

also i realised i might draw like every day on the train and have just filled another sketch pad, but i have nothing to upload. even now im wasting time with this rant but i wish i had my new corner desk, i think ill work harder if i have a studio set up(which includes the desk)

wish people would buy my art or commisson me. it seems all a bit fruitless at the moment. even after i reduced the prices. its not like im scrambling for money, cos i work. but im geting annoyed about how much money im sinking into art with getting anything, not even more followers/watches/comments.

whats the point of putting art online, if no-one cares??

//sadface.

and i oredered a bunch of parkway drive merch, and it turns out a girls larger is a guys small, so now i have a t shirt which is too small, and my stupid size 14 feet cant fit into the limited edition thongs i got for spending $100 in store, and my jumper is too big, and makes me look fat!

and i brought leopard print tights for my xmas party and to my joy turns out that there too baggy in the waist, but fit me in the thigh.

FML

/rant. i just realised since my camera not transfering data over via Sd card, it means i cant upload my storm photography or any new art. over it all.

    Art trade No. 20
    So its been about a week since i lost my internet and it awoke many things inside of me. So the first thing i imagine was that my whole inbox, facebook and DA would be overloaded with crap and messages (cos i lost my phone also), but it wasnt and also it made me more productive.



    More After the Jump
    So how did i spend these days? I spent most of it watching downloaded TV shows and drawing, which 
    were incredibly productive. I produced a mass of character design concepts for a manga I' m working on with some mates called: Red Vinyl Deluxe. I also filmed a new vlog, its another rant! but im honeslty having trouble editing it, and finding the want to edit it, the internet keeps distracting me. I know this must be terrible, without the internet i become so producive, with it i become distracted. 


    Also i finished 5 art trades, which was amazing! and came up with a concept for a new gallery in 2011, and my cosplay for Avcon 2010.  I'm getting excited, also i made some Mahou Sensei Negima fan art and some more fan art, ill show it off late


    peace
