Graver

Hey all.

Welp, the Therra piece is finally finished and as per universal decree, it ended up taking a touch longer then expected. That's partially due to a psychotic kitten and some pulled muscles or pinched nerves, something like that. Damned kittens!

Either way, for your viewing pleasure, I give you
THERRA ARCSON for Memphasebill.

Been a while since I posted a wip here, and I almost forgot too :X However, i at least remembered to scan in and post up the ink stage of this piece for Memphasebill

It should be completed in a day or two.

Oh, and you can find it HERE

Thanks guys!

Yer gonna "mossy", as in grow fungus all over your pillows? or are you trying to speak some form of cowboy slang... j/k , fav'd! [ QUOTE ]
No, he lives in the jungle. *Continues to stalk Graver* I wonder if he has any cash on him...

well, close, very close. It's really more of a local term (It's more swampy then jungely here...) describing going into an unmoving state for an extended period of time, enough time for um, moss to grow. When used the way i used it, it's, like, your going to sleep so hard and long moss grows on you... or something like that, ya.

I can spell, I really can! I swear!

And if you were any kind of stalker, Akiokun, you'd know that i was an artist which means chances of me having cash is fairly slim. If you had been really getting into your stalking, you'd see the utter bumness of my lifestyle and the fact that i only have few nickels...

Pickle's Nickels, 'cause nickels is money too.

Well, I just wrapped this digital piece up tonight and figured, well, hell, I can actually mossy on over to the boards and post it! So, yup, that's what I'm doing right her and now. Posting it... yup...

POST!

I'ma gonna... mossy on over to bed now. Thank you for reading and good night.

It's because I started playing again, isn't it?! Ah, well, hope you have fun out in that big ol' world and if you get really really bored, this game still might be about

I'd beg for some art, but I already got some rocking gift art from ya, I don't wanna take that opportunity from others.

Heh, ya, 140 lbs hot pressed doesn't hold up to heavy water, and rougher treatment very well (I destroy that stuff) but the 300lbs verity seems to be able to take most anything you can throw at it in any style (though it's not quite as smooth as 140 lbs... kind of like a mid way point between cold and hot pressed surface wise).

Shia, yes, go EXPERIMENT! When working with pain as translucent as watercolor, what surface to work on is the most important decision you can make

And Say, you only have half my secret... you forgot about Baby Fat! It binds, it coats, it works as a great vehicle... Baby fat, from the makers of head ina bag, Baby Fat, for all your Baby Fat needs!

Ah, so you've finally come over to the dark... er, hot side Niiiice work, love the look... nice and clean.

Personally, i don't see how you managed to cope on cold pressed for so long

Hey, a little late, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY anyways... or hope it was and all that

*fears the plunger* not again, NOT AGAIN!!!!

I have a couple of reference shots of the big lug, but they're not too good, lot's of detail's left up to the imagination, etc and was just kind of wondering if anyone out there might have some shots of this bashful fellow that I could use. I would be ever so grateful, ever so i would!

Pfft, you people and your tiny pants! >.> I've been wearing size 42-44 waist for *years*

Definitely too much squirrel <x.x>

See diagram.

Is that why you apparently gave up wearing paints? I couldn't quite make them out in the diagram ;p

*twitches and falls over in an elliptic fit*

Those... are... tooo... much! Makes me want to poke them in the belly though

He means make it like this.

Hey, 17" is the average perfectly normal size for a guy... several girls have told me so and I know they wouldn't lie... they just wouldn't...

Glad it's well received... it was one of the funnist times I've had on a piece in a while. The drama of some of them can really get to me sometimes

[ QUOTE ]
Hehehe <^,^> Don't mean to rain on your parade Star, but he already posted it! <,< (Then again, there's no such thing as too much graver eh? <,&lt

[/ QUOTE ]

Um, well, actually, yes, yes there is. I have an old pair of jeans with a 28 waist and I'm just too much Graver for them now I'm sure Starchasm would attest that on many a day, there is just way too much Graver around the apartment and there was this one time after a LOT of enchiladas... well, there was just too much Graver in that restroom that night

But many hugs for Star for keepin' everyone up to date even while I'm, back! You just can't buy that kind of friendship... even when I'm leavin' too much Graver clogging things up... She can post my work all she wants... I guess that'll give me a few extra minutes to make a little more

man-bewbs seems to be a new theme... damn, they're everywhere! good stuff though

I seem to be getting a lot of requests for shirtless guys lately...

[/ QUOTE ]

Ohh Ohh Ohh draw me shirtless!

[/ QUOTE ]

Ew, man-bewbs!

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, man-bewbs! Got a feeling there's gonna be more of those... now, if I could only get the opportunity to do some big ol' flobby hairy ones, that would be some excitement!

Ya, long time no hear from me, i know. That was on account of not having the funds to maintain my account. Well, I scrapped enough together for a month of play time, so I'll be back on the boards for a bit.

Either way, and to help celebrate my return, I give you ACOUSTIC DELUSIONS to help play me in.

I seem to be getting a lot of requests for shirtless guys lately... hrm

Either way, i should have more updates and board prescience and all that fun stuffs in the near future. Now, I gotta play that game I payed a month for, weeeee!

Wow, totally forgot to make a WIP thread for this one apparently ;crazy: i seem to be loosing my mind, damn! I might need that thing some day... hrm.

Either way, I recently just wrapped up work on Gideon's piece, which can be found...

HERE!

Now, um, has anyone seen a bit of jiggly grayish flesh running around? Seriously, i have to find that damned mind of mine... slippery [censored]...

all those rikti make me dizzy! Gah. Seriously nice work there. On the group shot, i would have to say the lady in white would be my favorite... and the glowing wounds on Green Guy are a nice touch!

ahhhh sqweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!11!1 !!1

So that's what you wanted those screen shots for! Thank you for organizing this, Star! Though, I know I don't have much time to come around these here parts much anymore, but did you think I would never find this thread. For shame. Now, I shall not be as surprised as I would have been, but still...

sqweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! And she's already definitely tormenting a worm, yay!

Oh, and ya, don't forget about Pep's contribution to my small small gallery of Abby work... and Atomic Knight too. I've treasured every work Abby has appeared in... and just in case y'all have forgotten them, here's a my complete collection so far:

Absinthium by Jolly Jongleur (or a name quite similar to that)
Teen Squadron in Wonderland by Scarf Girl
Abby: First Sketch by Atomic Knight
Abby: Second Sketch by Atomic Knight
Abby: Sketch Three by Atomic Knight
Absinthium Sprite Cards by Cruse
Absinthium the Fool by Scarf Girl
Teen Squadron by Suichiro... she's the one in the middle back pointing at the sky
Absinthium and Graveboy by Starchasm
Absinthium Chibi by Starchasm
Trick or Treat by Starchasm
Absinthium by Pep_Rally

Oh, and there is a fifth Abby outfit that I couldn't find when Star was getting screen shots from me/... I should have looked in the folder labeled Abby Outfits, but it just didn't seem like the place I would keep screenshots of Abby's outfits... CONVICT ABBY

Either way, again, thank you Star for doing this for me, thank you everybody who is / will be doing an Abby piece (I'll keep my eyes closed so I'm surprised in a few weeks!), and everyone who has ever done an Abby piece!

Now... I really really have to get back to work now... really.

*rolls away ecstatically*

Well, damn, this one took me a bit longer to get done then I would have thought, but at long last, ETERNAL , featuring TA and Sass is complete! ...barring any additional input from TA of course.

Thanks all who chipped in advice on this one, and, as you can see, I ended up shrinking that staff just a touch... it was maybe a smidgen too big

I would say more, but I think I said just about everything on my deviant art page.... and I have to get my skinny butt back to work. The paintings, they call me.

Nice Pose!

Question : Is the Nami staff too thick?

[/ QUOTE ]

I was thinking possibly... but the last time I did TA, he was all about making it bigger and bigger damn it! So, maybe not... I'll see what he says... but thinning it out will be quite easy... might... just... play... with... it...

runs off to grab an eraser.

Well, again I didn't get around to getting updates of my next piece out in a timely fashion due to getting wrapped up in making it and not so wrapped up in posting it ... but at least I remembered to post up and send out the pencils for approval before painting this time! Look ma' I's gettin' better!

Either way, here's the pencils to my latest work in progress featuring one of this communities more prolific couples. More to come as it comes, and as always, comments and suggestions are always welcome

ETERNAL
