Toph is one of, if not 'the', my favorite characters from avatar. It is really a toss up between her and uncle, both characters speak to different parts of me. Man, what a deceptively deep cartoon. I love it.
Here we have an older Toph, no doubt sparring with an older Aang. I choose to keep her boyish features, made her thin, kept the bangs to illustrate she doesn’t use her eyes. I think she looks a bit too tall but I didn’t want to mess with it much more so I left it. If she were standing next to another character, her height would still be alright I think. We’d see she’s still short. She’d still be the pint-sized juggernaut we love. |

An old friend of mine works on this really fantastic and great web comic called Nemu Nemu and I just want to help spread the word. It isn't crude, it isn't full of dirty jokes, it's just bright, it's happy, and most of all it is sweet. I don't see enough of this kind of wonder in our world. It makes me remember what it was like being a kid. It makes me feel the same way Calvin and Hobbes does.
Please go scope it out, enjoy something sweet and cute today. ^^

I don't understand our need to judge. Especially with art. We all have things we like, and we don't like. I don't enjoy paintings of sports, regardless of the skill it took to create the painting. The subject doesn't interest me. But if I see a painting of some baseball star, I don't take the time out of my day to let the artist know. Why would they care if I don't like it. If my telling them I dislike their image, doesn't help build them in some way, then why do I waste my, our, time? I don't.
So you don't like anime, so what? Don't comment.
So you don't like anthropomorphic characters? Don't comment.
So you don't like realism...
I don't know. I just only try to give good advice to other artists. I hate when I'm idling in an 'art chatrooms' and someone posts a painting, and all they get is, "It's just stupid anime. It's a furry!" etc... I just have always expected better behavior from my peers. We're creative thinkers. We're intelligent, we're original, we discover and explore. And apparently, many of us still act like children.
I think a lot of our self loathing as artist could be the source. It's so easy to be mad at yourself. You paint that painting you've been dreaming of, and it doesn't look as you imagined, you get mad at yourself. And sometimes, you get mad at others who it seems to come more easy to.
Try not to let this happen. Please guys. Stand up, be better, prevail. Try not to think of it as a contest. Paint because you enjoy it, because your heart needs to paint, and don't compare yourself to others, study hard, work hard, but also, try to enjoy it.

Man, was in the store the other day, they have new smurf toys. I effing loved the smurfs.
If I had a little Hyptosis spawnling I'd totally have bought them. Of course that is the point, they're marketed at me not my offspring, but man... they were so cool. And they had so many. *teary eyed*

I thought I'd write a book in my spare time. In order to make myself feel happy good I'll post progress reports here. I never really fancied myself a writer, but I always pay the DM so we'll see how this plays out. ^^
I totally ganked this thing from Jim C. Hine's blog. >_>
Also, some art under the cut. *WARNING MILD GORE*
