RRRYYYYan SOOOO SERIOUS!?!?!

so, to be short, thanksgiving was filled with many a pie, turkey, and juice. all of which fit happily into my stomach compartment without any complaints.

Ryan and Mandy came by, and whilst they were on route, I couldn't help staring at this picture and decided to surprise him with a fun little photo manip. thing.

this is right after the part where The Joker asks Shakeman in "The Dark Shake" if he wants to know how The Joker got his scars, and Shakeman says "...yes. tell me everything." The Joker just gets this really crazy look in his eye. remember? heh.

on another bat-like note, i'm still trying to find old stuff to color to keep meself busy and the photoshop exp. flowing as i slowly build up to kill some boss i'll probably run into in some dank, dark cave where lays hidden somewhere the legendary masamune blade. so yeah, colored this.

i woulda kept pushing the contrast, or maybe messin' with the colors, but i don't like spending too much time on pictures when there's turkey a-foot.

anywho, rocked out with the family to all three extended versions of the lord of the rings. got some sketches a-coming. it's funny i think, how we can become so attached to something that isn't real. like movie characters, or stories, and experiences in the movie that never really happened... i dunno. it just makes me really appreciate life that much more when you see how sad or void a person or story gets without real closure or explanation, and the ultimate form of all closure and explanations are in the plan, which is rarely hinted to or included in a movie, and you either forget about it in the story and feel hopelessness for a character or a sense of longing for some more ultimate form of living that includes whatever awesome thing you were just a part of through your visual experience. we're just so conditioned to see an ending - to a movie, a story, or even a real person. makes life seem a little sour sometimes in contrast, but eternity has gotta be pretty sweet, once you pass on to that side of life.

Chocoboy

hello.

here's an old picture i drew for a mission colleague (you call 'em "colleagues" in Europe, or else people think you're gay. haha.) needed to color after watching Final Fantasy Advent Children.




and....... just found out i never posted this - the FIRST picture i ever drew with my tablet.

was gonna put some evil eyes in the back in the dark somewhere, but never got around to it. just pretend they're there. heh. enjoy.
nothing interesting or abnormal things going through my head or my life these days to bother to type about. however, took a little trip to the temple and i am feeling very motivated/positive/optimistic about... pretty much everything at the moment.

once i get around to editing some photos i took with my camera, i'll perhaps throw those up here as well. fun stuff.

LEVEL UP! can now play as "RYU"

a beat please *ahem*
slippin' into street fights soaked in neon lights. only way outta this life, is right through yo' demons that try to keep you from reachin' the highest heights. You know the ones, the ones that try to hold yo' face into the head lights if you be freezin', bendin' over knees, weak and weezin' and wrestlin' with mights when the car crashes, and it's too late to hope, cuz you be ashes and smithereans. washed out and burned with listorines, flavors like scope, dirt and never again will we see the ol' rope-a-dope.



couldn't resist throwin a little rhyme together for this picture i am titling "street fights and neon lights" WAAAAy fun. i think this is the best job i've EVER done in photoshop. heh. originally was going with some weird old chinese brown scroll-ish sorta look, which obviously did NOT happen. Feels good to finally get this one outta o' the way - it's been a huge distraction. now i can go do something else with my life. lots o' symbolism for yuh - especially if you know a little bit about streetfighter. just wiki it, or click here to read more about the main dood in this pic.

School Doodlin' Bamboozalin' Bonanza...

so yessssss... got these doodles on the back of my notebooks onto the computer. played around with some highlighting, and here's what we got:

some old school oldies about to give somebody a good ol' fashion old schoolin' - don't give them any lip, or they'll give you a good lickin'.



just grabbed a flower, dude in the red jacket just found her-SWORD!! also, Goku, Krillin, Piccolo, and Master Roshi are all making guest appearances in this picture.

dreams to be had, battles to be won, seems like i nap like there's skittles on my tongue. colorful flayvuhs be droppin' from every spectrum of the rainbow, curl down my throat, can't choke, shook up and awoke, and realize i've still got a dream that has yet to be wrote... the thoughts will come after.

i've got this habit of rhyming on all the time now, thanks to myriads of HOT BEATZ and so forth. anyways, i'd love to type something thoughtful - but once again, not today. gots other stuffs to do. maybe later.... maybe.

Age of Pilots

just practicing more and more coloring techniques etc. here's somethin' i just finished coloring, that i drew up back in the day. really liked the nostalgic sorta hopeful/hopeless.... vibe thing it's got goin' on, depending on how you look at it.


it's late for me... maybe i'll type some words here later. bye.

so... i also went parkour-ing for the first 'o'fficial time last thursday. i'm still not back to one-hundred-percent, because my upperbody got DESTROYED. but yeah, it was a fun experience - all related to what i typed about backflipping.
