Ungentle, gentle

1 min read

Just wanted to say that I have a new piece up on my website. I'd post it here, but I still like my Spoiled piece better than this one, so I don't want to push Spoiled down... unfortunately. So, go see at Furiae - I hope you'll like.

A friend of mine has wonderful imagination when it comes to games, and he's poking around at doing a board game for my Furiae world. The creature in my new image is for the game (well, for the entire Furiae world, really, but it will be used in the game). I'm very much looking forward to what he'll do. I can't wait to test the game... I think I need only sit down and go over the map before we can give it a bit of a go.

Meanwhile, love you all, and I'm sorry I'm not around much. Work is taxing and what time I have to spare, I spend with my friends and my cat. And movies. I watch lots and lots of movies.

Buying a computer?

2 min read

People frequently ask me for the tools of my trade. I'll tell you right away - I have an old screen, and I'm getting a new one, soon. Something good. The one I have doesn't match up with the machine. So I can't advice you on that, but....

My computer is a BOXX -
www.boxxtechnologies.com/

In my opinion, they make the best computers for digital artists. So far the only 'crashes' I've had have been related to my idiocy, not the computer, and I have no issues what so ever in any kind of way.

As for digital pens - there's nothing like a Wacom. Honest.

www.wacom.com

I use an older version at home, but the Intuos 3 is excellent: I've got access to one at my other job. You've never drawn quite so smoothly.

As for programs... I go Adobe Photoshop CS AND Corel Painter IX. People always ask me which one is the best - I say, they're best in combination. Use both. For different things. I refuse to choose - it's like trying to pick between chocolate and ice cream. Can't be done.

Some news :)

Why I'm so busy - and where can you find my updated stuff?

Hi everyone

Sorry I'm not around as much as I used to be, but I guess that's what working a lot does to you.

I'm on an absolutely wonderful project now - for a movie called the Golden Compass. If you've not heard about it, take a look at IMDB... I think it will be wonderful, I have such respect for the director and everyone on the project seems lovely. I get awesome job offers quite frequently now, and it looks as if though I might jump head-first into yet another project when this one is done. I love my job!!

Meanwhile, I'm trying to entertain my demanding cat Azrael, as well as spend at least a little time with my good friends, but it's stressful. I guess my online 'life' is what's been suffering,and as of late, I've stopped with icq, email and even forums to some extent because there's no time to spare... So apologies for those that feel neglected. I wish there were more hours every day, but right now there's not

I promise I'll be back when all of this slows down though. For now,
enayla.cgsociety.org/gallery/ is where I update with little sketches now and then, aside from my webpage on www.furiae.com

And if you want some nice merchandise, I'm selling poster books here:
ballisticpublishing.com/ballis…

Big hugs!

Turns out that it was a mistake of the other kind. Not the kind where they compared my picture to another and decided mine was the fake one, but the pressing the wrong button and doing a normal, mortal mistake kind.

I suppose I can live with that. Still sucks, and it was still one of the few times I've been honestly pissed off for a long while, but it's understandable. No one's perfect. I'm going to stick around for the time being at least. Sorry for the big upset, everyone, I was just so pissed off to find a letter about the picture's removal in my note box - if the former had been true, I -would- have left even if the picture was returned. But, yeah, anyway.

Much <3 to everyone, and to the admins for explaining the situation.
