Yeah I know, there are people who can't use the internet who post more frequently than I do.  But I am back, and that's all that's important. By back I of course mean that I am having another spurt of enthusiasm and will hopefully be uploading the fruits of my labours for your delectation over the next couple of weeks.  This time it has taken the form of a fan-made character design for the Relic Knights universe, an anime themed sci-fi miniatures game by Soda Pop miniatures.  So, go take a looky.  There's art and a shortish bio included. In other news, I have a job now, which is another excuse to add to my repertoire of why I never do anyth

This is just a quick blog to say I'm alive!  In case you didn't know, I am still drawing and creating stuffs, I just haven't been uploading them at the moment.  But the piece I uploaded today is something I thought you Deviants might enjoy.  It's a picture in the style of Martin Handford, author and artist behind the Where's Wally (Where's Waldo if you're American) series, with the theme being Warhammer 40K.  It's based (loosely, I should point out) on the Assault on Black Reach, the current W40K boxed game, a battle between the Space Marines of the Ultramarines Legion and Orks.  I've tried to include every unit you get in the game, and more

So, Halloween approaches, and therefore so does the deadline for my short story Vigilante.  And so, as a treat, I've uploaded Chapter 3 a bit early, so that people can read it in time for Saturday when the final exciting chapter will be uploaded. Please leave me any comments or opinions, I'm still honing my writing style so I really could do with some constructive criticisms. Hope that you're enjoying it so far ^_^ -Dark

You a fan of Banksy, Essiness? (is that the right spelling, i forget). It needs a little works still, the wall looks a touch cack and you can barely see the headphones! Still quite please with it, cheers for the fav!
I usually do like his work, when it's tasteful. I say when, I haven't seen anything yet that I've considered a step too far, but we'll see.

I do really like it though, I like the concept and you've got the art style down. I was thinking, maybe you should whack it in photo shop and mess with the colours a bit, get it into the iPod advert colours?

And yes, you spelt it right, although I haven't used that persona in quite a while!

Let me know how it goes if you work on it some more ^_^
Hi,
Thanks for all the Favourites :]
Thankyou for the kind words and the faves!

Greed is definitely by far the best character in the series - I highly recommend the new anime series if you're a fan of a manga - there are some great scenes taken straight from the manga, scene by scene! It is a lot better than the original series. ^^

You going to Expo in October?
Yeah, the original series was good, but I wish they'd collaborate more closely with the author to get the storyline right! At least insofar as who the other Homunculi are. Not that Wrath wasn't cool, and I did like the twist with Sloth... kind of. I don't know. Guess I'm on the fence really ^_^

I'm afraid I'll be at Fuyucon in October instead of Expo. I was at Kita at the beginning of the year and really enjoyed it. Plus I'm getting a little bored of the expo format (easily done when you have no money to enjoy it properly!)

I take it you'll be at Expo not Fuyu?
Yeah I'm afraid - London Expo again in October. What exactly is Fuyu? Is it mainly anime/manga based? I'm more into the film/game stuff really, so Expo is awesome for me....
Yeah Fuyu is more aimed at Anime and Manga fans, but you can cosplay whatever you want. For example, I went as Rorschach on one day of Kita, and my girlfriend went as Fayt from Star Ocean. Pretty much everyone that goes is in cosplay, which is why I prefer it.

Check it out, fuyucon.org also kitacon.org in March. Obviously you've made plans for Fuyu this year but maybe have a look at the site and I might see you at Kita the next year ^_^
