Angelique: You know I count on you to poke at me about their functions and world in Hangout *thumb up* Lol, I try... but sometimes I haven't the faintest clue, or just want to make something that's more fun/cool than it-works. ....Magic....

More examples from the newest batch of thumbnail designs. The Space Penguin is a temporary name I gave to this fun design based on a critter my girlfriend studied quite a bit back in grad school. Something about beheading them and squeezing their juice out…. It’s science. She says they grow spiky helmets and armor when sensing danger, so I established the base as Freckles, and they have a society, and they craft and wear many different types of armor. Space Penguin Warriors!
This is a lazy study of a leaf hopper from a library book I took out. I couldn’t be bothered to paint all the legs.
This confused fellow is the result of a themed concept artist meet up I went to. I found out what a paint marker is!
It's impossible to be everywhere and do everything. Contributing back to a community and keeping it going to too much work and time taken out of getting good.... would it be better to lurk and improve, then just move on to lurk elsewhere from one art community to the next when the previous one dies off from inactivity? After all, when I'm a better skilled artist, I can help a fellow artist better and give better feedback, when I do help and give feedback at some point. That is a tantalizingly legit argument I hear...
On the other hand, what on Earth are you doing still acting like an amateur after all these years, Self? Perpetuating this miserable sham of a 'struggle' that goes nowhere. Get a grip and work on it, and stop qualifying yourself for snuffing out!
How real are those health and safety warning labels on these traditional stuff anyway?
... I think it's time to don those real headphones with real outside noise-blocking abilities. Get more uses out of them before they break and I will have to shell out another $80 to pretend I have a private room.
