While trying to do a bit of cleaning I picked up a package of prints (Bleach, FMA, Final Fantasy, etc.) intending to put them all in one bag. . . damn. . . I took them out of the envelope they were in. . . I did NOT realize just how many I had left. And these are the large 14x20 size, which are very difficult to travel with. I already knew I had ( Read more... )

I'm too lazy to think of anything for the subject. :P ( Read more... )

I wish people who know nothing would just shut the hell up, instead of spreading misinformation. The Iplehouse thread seems to be where the worst of them hang out. The company only ever offers heads for sale rarely. What isn't idiotic isn't so much that they don't make head sales a regular thing. . . it is kind of like shooting yourself in the ( Read more... )

I stopped by the comic shop the other day. I had an ulterior motive. . . but that always depends on who is working that day. ^_~ I did want to see if they had Arslan #2 in stock (they didn't, dammit). Ulterior motive: an account of how Senshi Con went. I was in luck there. Got confirmation of a couple of things I suspected: The artists' alley ( Read more... )

I've been working on my next painting, a graphorn as it turns out. Big surprise. :P I don't really see any point in doing anime paintings anymore. If I'm going to be painting things I can't (or won't) sell they might as well be something I can put into a portfolio. I won't be going to any conventions this year, not even the local one most ( Read more... )

I finished the ashwinder painting. I wish I had a scanner, mostly because I couldn't seem to get the work straight in the frame when taking a photo. Not sure I care that much, though. Anyway. . .

Well, 2015 is carrying on the crap of 2014. After looking around for my copy of "Fantastic Beasts" I decided it would be easier in the long run to just see if the used book store had a copy. I thought I was lucky in that not only did they have it but also #3 of Alichino. So I go to pay, handing over a $20. I didn't even pay attention to the ( Read more... )

It's Wednesday, so the only thing I can look forward to is 2 episodes of The Walking Dead. Evidently they have enough episodes for syndication, so the independent station picked it up. Now if only the PBS station could get its hands on the original Iron Chef and put it on their Create channel. I don't know if it was ever offered on DVD. . . I'd ( Read more... )

I really do love the "used" shops in Japan. L. O. V. E. I picked up the book in the subject line, which they claimed was "B" grade (some wear, feeling of used item) but was pretty much like new. At any rate, even with registered SAL, the price was half of what some were wanting for the book on Amazon. I saw the same sort of scalping with the ( Read more... )

I just read how one should be careful of ranting on the 'net, particularly if you want to work in your field. Someone, somewhere, might read it and think badly of you. Of all the rants I've made here I am pretty sure I don't give a rat's furry crack who reads them or what they think of me. I hold back. A LOT. The saying goes, people regret ( Read more... )
