well None of my friends use it anymore =P
So anyways This guy is amazing:

He made like 2 sketches and a painting a day for like the past three years and posted all of it. Now his stuff rivals everyone =P

Quite inspiring.. So of course it made me want to do something similiar, i thought of painting but I do like painting but it's expensive and i dunno if i could do that everyday O.o

Then i thought about what i Actually needed/wanted, I thought about animation but that's impossible for me to do everyday. If i'm away from my computer/lightbox (nearly every weekend cause of work) i just can't do it.
So instead of every day I'ma do it on a weekly basis, and make sure I count it up everyday.
I'm fairly confident with my animation ability, of course i wanna get better but that's not entirely my goal with this, what I really lack is speed at drawing, this will definitely subconsciously make me go faster to get it done. =D Once i draw faster i'll draw more and draw better, that's my theory.
I think i could use some help on perspective and illustration, but I think this is a good goal to set for myself.

I've been wanting to make this 42 second animation that's been in my head for quite awhile. So I did the math, if i make 10 drawings every day that's 70 drawings a week, It'll take about 3.6 months to complete. -_-*
But the longer i wait the longer it'll take, so I'm just gunna go ahead and do this cause it sounds like fun =D

I have put many limitations on myself to what i know will motivate me to do it. Cause it shouldn't be all that hard if i'm motivated =D

-I must make 70 drawings a week, That's 10 drawings a day. Though I won't be able to draw on weekends usually so I'll be keeping a counter every day I'm online i think..
-The drawings can be fully pencil test, no color needed. Fill that in later
-the drawings don't have to be for that one specific animation, I can split them up between other random stuff in my head
-A day is not 12 PM it's whatever time i go to sleep and wake up, that's the next day.
-If i don't get to 70 in one week and have more then 40, The next week I'll have to do 100
-If i don't get up to 40 in one week or miss a 100.. Will gets to slap me or something.

I'm gunna try and find a site that i can actually add my flashes since photobucket doesn't like that anymore =?

I'm gunna start on monday cause i'll be leaving today. However I'm about to go finish that animation i didn't finish last night =D
