Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

All winners are picked at random! (random.org)

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

What a day - had my first cup of coffee

this morning and sat down in front of the computer

to check my e-mails, notes and such never realizing that my messages have sprouted over a thousand!

Cruising around, I saw this awesome deviation and thought "man, this should be a DD!" So then I went looking for

's link to suggest a DD when I spotted a familiar image.

Uh...what's my render doing in the DD...

OMG, I got a DD??? I got a DD!!!!"

Then I

Thanks once again

and thanks Adi, Vex and Angie as well!

THANKS everyone kind enough to add The Scout to their favs - it means a lot to me!

FAQ #61: What is a Daily Deviation?

~Coverten Dec 2, 2010

Lol, thank you again.

~bludgeon1991 Dec 1, 2010 Hobbyist General Artist

A daily deviation. The select few pieces of art that are awknowledged for outstanding whatever. It's basically an honor.

~Coverten Dec 1, 2010

Thank you very much.

*MayFong Nov 30, 2010 Hobbyist Digital Artist

CONGRATULATIONS! What a well-deserved DD! I can't believe I missed such awesome news while I was busy and away from DA! Hahaha, you can't disable your journal's comments! I see that you have been diligently responding to all your fans! Seriously, I thought you must have a dozen DD's by now. Your gallery has an over-abundance of DD-worthy pieces.

I just want to say on the record that it's an atrocity that Amaya doesn't have a DD yet!

*RainfeatherPearl Nov 30, 2010

Yes, where have you been, Ms. Fong, hmm? Ugh, I felt like a stuffed turkey last Thanksgiving, lol. Hope you had a great one, hun!

Thanks for the kind words as always, I can say the same about your gallery. It's a treasure trove full of DDs!

I would definitely want to see more of yours up there.

OMG, I love this one >>

*MayFong Dec 1, 2010 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I had a belly full of yummy smoked honey-glazed ham for Thanksgiving! I am glad to be back after taking care of some stressful business!

I swiped this jumping bean

off someone.

The final frontier for me is learning the mind-boggling 3D art that you do!

*RainfeatherPearl Dec 2, 2010

Well, glad the "stressful business" is taken care of. I for one can't wait to see your next deviation!

As for learning 3D...let me ask (and I am sure I won't be the only 3D renderer that will ask you this) why would you want to? You can paint anything so effortlessly, why waste it on 3D? Sheeesh!

*MayFong Dec 2, 2010 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I am not very productive lately. My next deviation will be delayed by holiday shopping. It's fun but tiring to be a Santa to nieces and nephew.

Um...I take it from the 'sheeesh' that I am clueless? LOL! 3D seems very involved and technical. To be honest, I am clueless. I always thought 3D rendering is the initial step towards elementary 3D animation, then who knows, Pixar! Mind you, I am happy to stick with Photoshop. It took me eons to learn it. I doubt I can learn Maya or Z-brush on my own!

*RainfeatherPearl Dec 4, 2010

Oh, no...the "sheesh" is more like "with your talent, why would you even consider using 3D figures?". Unless you are thinking about modeling or animating then I can see how having knowledge in these fields will add to your portfolio but just plain rendering scenes...nah, you can paint figures better than most of us can light them.
