New art and stuff

I don't know what's wrong with me. Q says it's not that hot, but every day I feel like I'm slogging through a dryer full of hot, wet towels. I'm so hot all the time it's making me ill, but I'm not running a fever. Drinking more water has helped, but I'm not suffering any other symptoms of dehydration.

As a result I haven't really wanted to draw

Oceanic Air's amphibious plane designs ran into some serious problems during the prototyping stages.

Why they persisted into seven production models and a scheduled flight to Octopia is a bit of a mystery.

I've had it with these mother-fuckin' octopi on this mother-fuckin' plane!!!!

Sorry, I had to do it. :D

This is cool! I really love deep sea monsters, and octopi are my very favorite. Despite my bias, the textures you used to shade and highlight this are really nice. I'm diggin' the pop art feel.

Sorry to hear you're feeling lousy. I'm running on fumes lately so I'm sure I can sympathize there.

LOL, I can't believe I didn't think of that, when I have had this DIRECTLY OVER MY DESK for the past THREE YEARS:

I enjoyed your classy poster and lol'd immensely when you told me it was hovering over your workspace! Subconscious inspiration maybe?

Oh god, I always have body heat issues. My bf turns into a human inferno when he sleeps. It...can't be natural. I think he's a demon or something. D:
Glad to hear you're feeling better though!

Oh yeah, you'd enjoy this video (if you haven't already seen it):

Hehe, I'm a lot better today - I think I was being bad and not drinking enough water.

Yay thanks! It's scary huh? Looking at both of our work from the beginning of the summer and now - we've both gotten so much better. Can't wait to see what it's like by Christmas... or next summer. We're going to kick serious ass.

I think I might post a Pop Art tutorial! You've inspired me! It's pretty easy, but it's a bit too involved to explain in one comment field or over IM, since I'd need pictures to go with it. But it basically involves using layers, cutting things out and pasting them into new documents, turning that document into a bitmap, and then pasting it back in and using layer masks. Sounds like a pain but it's not too bad. I should whip up a tutorial. Perhaps with Adoodie/Fartjima pictures, hooray!

No dude, it's fucking hotter than shit. I couldn't stand being outside for three seconds yesterday. Q is just dumb. :|

Also yay, tentacle rape. Er wait.

THANK YOU. It's so nice to have SOMEONE agree with me about the weather! I was worried that my thyroid was going nuts or something, but it turns out that Q is just insane. That's much better as THAT doesn't involve radioactive iodine.
