Please ask me for art (also stop being creepy)

If Scorpion could also be made entirely out of belts and also firing belts out of his mouth that would be ideal.

But, your call.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Sorry for an artless update:

I am indeed still taking requests! I swear I'm not dead or nuthin' but I have been on an unexpected laptop/personal hobby hiatus for family reasons (not bad stuff--just intense busy-ness).
Tomorrow I'll get on them arts--I've got my favorite gif for Butch Chewy and post-company loneliness is the perfect fuel for a creative run. That Dynasty Warriors one might need a little extra time, though... The outfits and muscles are serious business!

Thank you for all the new requests, too!

FELIPE NO

Good to see you're still sticking around the madhouse.

Requesting Winnie the Pooh arm wrestling with Paddington Bear in manly fashion.

How ya doing, buddy?

I have a new request brought on by this song from Fraggle Rock:

YouTube Video

Specifically (and because everyone needs more Eye Scream) someone pulling the eyes over the wool.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm sorry about de-beefing up Ryu--I'm not at all used to drawing dudes and I shy away from crazy muscle drawing (I get embarrassed just doodling a man face by myself unless it's for someone else).

Also, in case it's ambiguous, a garter is involved--I looked up the tradition and it just struck me how odd the tradition is. And a little disturbing:
Back in the dark ages, the getting a piece of the bride's clothes was a great charm for one's own wedding... "The custom became rowdier and bawdier until the guests were eager to help the bride out of her wedding clothes. The wedding guests would try to grab the bride's garter for good luck. It is thought to forestall such impropriety, the bride's garter was given to the mob as a distraction. Soon this became an established custom. "

Also, you could theoretically replace my dialogue with something better. If you wanted.

Another case where I initially mistook a request. Amaterasu the regular Shinto goddess would have been fun too. This game, though. It looked so gorgeous but I didn't have my own PS2 at the time. Either way, drawing artistic blood is like chicken soup for the soul.

Never heard of Paddington Bear. He looks like a baddass, but I dunno how he'd do against a roughly sewn, strung out honey-addict like Pooh.

Refreshing beer will be... refreshing.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hey!
Weekend at Lu Bu's--the outfits were a little confusing, so, uhh... just don't look too hard. Lot's of fun fanart out there for these guys--it was pretty cool checking it out

Scorpion being very happy about his belts, then succumbing to the Double Belt Transfiguration of Enlightenment:

Pooh and Paddington Bear arm wrestling. Rupert's my home-bear but it's hard to be too manly with his stylish attire.

(But be warned: when you put pooh and arm-wrestling together, ...other things can happen)
(^ I tried to post this link in chat, but I don't know if I did it right. And it was pretty empty at the time...)

Dang. Pulling the eyes over wool sounds... unpleasant--I mean, the world that belongs to Fraggle Rock seems frightening without those lyrics--your puppet family is always at risk of being ripped from your subterranean dwelling and then... eaten? That's some scream material right there.

Nappa vs Gabe Newell--who's the heel and face in this situation??

And the refreshing beer is coming right up

This will be a little more relevant in a month or so, but it seemed like a fun idea to draw now.

Thanks for checking stuff out!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Nice Evangelion tie-in.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

(the song is a bunch of inverted sayings, so in context, it's groovy, but OOC it becomes horrific)

How ya doing, buddy?

Thanks, THIEF! I'm a little sad about what has become of the Evangelion series but one can still visit the old stuff--I re-watched the show this year and it was as interesting and snazzy as ever
Nice sci-fi psychological spiritual mishmash with a self-affirming aftertaste.

As for the eye wool:
It is a groovy tune (I wanna dance to it) but the show's opening tells me there are predatory cavemen out to get them all the time and they kind of have to hide underground to be safe. This and the song's lyrics make me worry about the fate of these fraggles--though if the show's content is much more benign, then I guess there's nothing to be frightened about.
It's hard to trust that Jim Hensen, though. He's sneakier than he looks.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Well, the Fraggles do eat the Gorg's radishes, so it's not like there's no reason for the animosity.

FELIPE NO

Okay, legit talk.

Do you take commissioned work.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Actually, this is what I expected and you delivered. Not even mistaken.

Such grit. Very love. Would prop 10 times over if I could. Thanks!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Great work on the arm wrestling piece! I like to use your works as my wallpapers, Pooh and co. are up now.

<3

Unsure how many requests you have in queue, but I'll just throw something in: A pizza and a burger having a fencing duel.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm glad you think any of my stuff is worthy of adorning your desktop, Boo-kun!

So fraggles are part of a balanced ecosystem. They are probably more nutritious than radishes, too. Hard life lessons on survival for everyone...

The Amaterasu one was lots of fun, thank you for requesting it :>

Commissions...?

I would be thrilled to take commissions
(Although I don't have any standard prices (read: no experience) and I'd probably spend a couple days to complete and clean up something if somebody wanted something fancy)

PM me if you'd like--I'm totally up for the prospect!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

HE'S SO HAPPY

now to make an av/sig combo out of it...

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Thanks for the new artworks! I'm always a fan, but I particularly enjoyed the Most Refreshing Beer.

Just a couple remarks~

I would surmise that you did in fact not do it quite right, because chat has like, a minimum of about 25 people online (most of them admittedly idling) at its emptiest times. Also I was online for most of that day and didn't notice you popping in. So where did you actually end up? It remains a mystery!

In all seriousness, though, as you seem to be out of luck with the ChocoChat plugin, I would recommend downloading an IRC client and joining us that way. That's what most of us are using, it's simpler than it looks! Once you'll have it installed, just enter irc.psigenix.net as a server, connect and then look for a channel named #gfchat. If you encounter trouble with any steps, don't hesitate to bug me or any other forum/chat regular and we'll do our best to help!

I think you may have forgotten the image/link there - or did you plan on releasing it later? At any rate I was really excited about this one, so I thought I'd just ask!

I was speaking idiomatically.

Hey! I know all about technologies: roboticles, programmables, systems, RAM juice, micro...nodules... and of course feline coding.
:?

Seriously, though, I have been to a place that looks about right a few times. Omagnus Prime and Talec were on the list last time. Not too familiar with any kind of chatting/messaging etiquette but it appears I too should idle on gfchat while at my computer for the proper experience (and to increase the odds of talking to someone).

Thank you for all the kind words! Scorpion was pretty happy-looking to begin with--hard to 1up that sort of double belt joy... that is, until the Double Belt transfiguration hits. And Asuka seemed like a good candidate to drink refreshing beer --the German half of my family is all sorts of cranky and chilly until you give them a beer (other alcohols work to a lesser extent). Melts the ice right off their eye daggers. Plus, I haven't seen any Oktoberfest pictures of her out there yet--seems like a natural extension of Asuka's national pride to give her a pint and a dirndl...

Woo! I'm totally up to snuff on all the things to draw. So... uh...
I guess I'll put some older pictures up or something for now...?

This was my first complete-ish digital thing (like in April) before i even had installed the tablet driver (no pressure sensitivity or nothin'--quite the butt pain. Still needs a lot more help):
http://i.imgur.com/x08aGxl.jpg?1

I did a desert lady with her centipede bud in... May? A little better:
http://i.imgur.com/hh4zddZ.jpg?1

Thing' m' bob from a more recent run--these sorts are quick and easy like pop tarts...
http://i.imgur.com/gikjWp3.png?1

Maybe I should do my own crappy Goku picture in honor of the Creative Cafe's subtitle....

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Confirming idling is the proper way of communicating in chat.

FELIPE NO

The desert piece made me think of Nausicaä, so how about a request for just that. I'll leave the content to you to decide. Especially if you haven't read it, now is the time to study it, it's an amazing manga by Hayao Miyazaki after all.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

It's hard to escape his influence...
If you're into his work, Miyazaki is like some sort of super-grandpa that forms part of one's childhood with all his complicated characters and open-ended stories that drive you bananas.

I remember reading the manga after watching the movie and being struck by the richness of the story--how awesome Kushana was, the grotesque life of the Dorok emperor dude and his evil sister, how many cultures are introduced by the end... All sorts of crazy biz goes on and Miyazaki is somehow able to gut his story for the sake of making a manageable movie. That guy is pretty crazy-cool.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

He made the movie when he hadn't yet finished the manga. That's why the movie essentially covers the first two volumes and then goes in an entirely different direction.

Manga is godlike. Cried for Yufa so bad ;_;

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Very nice work again and you were surprisingly fast on this too.

The next request I have in mind could prove harder if you don't know the material, so I'll interrogate you over PM first.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I need you to draw for me feline coding. A little kitty programmer, a gaggle of kitten hackers at Def Con, a Maine Coon sysadmin, whatevs; artist's choice.

thx in advance

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Oh yes, is it okay if I crosspost your VGCW art to the VGCW fanart thread? :3

I was speaking idiomatically.

And then carbonpaper got fed up with our creep and was never sighted again
