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?)

800 Points GiveawayHello all. As I've mentioned in the poll, I am going to make a small giveaway on the occasion of nearly 1000 watchers! Wooo!
There are 8 winners and 100 points for each to win. BUT the giveaway ends when the number of watchers reaches 1000.
RULES:

To enter, fave this journal and comment below that you've faved it. Then I will give you a number.

You don't need to watch me to enter. But please keep in mind that the giveaway ends sooner when
there are more watchers.

Your account must be at least 2 months old.

You can enter once only. No alternate/plz accounts.
I will choose winners with 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
(the song is Tenkuu no Canaria, from ToS *w*b)

A few words

by ~ultimatebadass, Aug 26, 2005, 8:39:28 AM
Journals / Personal

Recently watched: Elfen Lied
_{Comments: Shocking, but an interesting experience. Definitely for adults (i'm not kidding, and for those who wonder: no, it's not a "hentai" anime).}

Album of the moment: Armin Van Buuren - Shivers
_{Comments: If you're into trance/electronic music it's a must.}

A few things:

- Security Checkpoint scene will not be finished in it's current state - i've decided to start again from scratch (there goes out 6 months of work)

- I've completed a project for the AFF. It was fun. And I learned a whole damn lot in the process. I hope to do something more for them in the near future.

- Till the end of the month I'm on 32kbps connection (yes, 32 kbps, that's a 4KB/s downstream) so I will not be able to comment any of your works till then (67D currently) - i'll watch them when I get my 1mbit back.

Powodzenia

~drzejan Aug 26, 2005

Milo ze ogladasz Elfen Lied. Nie chcialem zaznaczac, ze od tego powinno sie zaczac by nie zrazic ale sadze ze chyba sie podoba, prawda ?

Co gorsza, jesli masz teraz 32 kbps to ile masz juz Elfen Lied ? Bo ssanie z taka mega preskocia musi byc rozrywka dla prawdziwych hardcorowcow.

Co do projektu sceny Security Checkpoint, bede cie dopingowal to co robisz

i jak to sie mowi, oczekiwanie wzmaga apetyt

czyli wynik ostateczny bedzie jeszcze lepszy.

~ultimatebadass Aug 26, 2005 Digital Artist

Zanin obcieli mi transfer (przekroczylem limit) zdazylem zassac Samurai Champloo i Elfen Lied.

Najpierw obejrzalem Samuraja ale mniejsza o to

Elfen Lied mnie po prostu rozwalil. Opad szczeki w niektorych momentach byl dosc znaczacy - brutalne to sa co lepsze horrory z Holywood, TO bylo hmm... bestialskie? Nie wiem, moze sie "mientki" robie na starosc, ale po scence z psem (kojarzysz pewnie ktora) musialem sie uspokoic bo nie bylem w stanie odpalic kolejnego odcinka. Ilosc krwi nie robi na mnie raczej wiekszego wrazenia, ale wczesniej wymieniona scenka i na przyklad to w laboratorium jak badali zdolnosci odbijania pociskow przez "vectory" lub scena kiedy "faceci w czerni" oznajmiaja ojcu ze niestety ale musza zabic jego dziecko... masakra. Zmusza zdecydowanie do przemyslen, bo mimo wszystkich tych morderstw jakie polenia Lucy/Nyuu raczej nikt nie ma do niej zalu po tym co pokazuja z jej przeszlosci.
No i to dosc otwarte zakonczenie: mialem nadzieje, ze ten caly boss i jego "instytut badawczy" zostanie conajmniej znukowany. No i kto stal za brama w ostatnim odcinku (bo odnioslem wrazenie ze Lucy/Nyuu dala sie po prostu zabic pod koniec)? Bylo tez ofcoz pare lzejszych elementow (wszystkie scenki z Nyuu) tyle ze przy tym, co serwuje cala seria smiech byl raczej krotki, bo wiadomo ze zaraz beda momenty mniej zabawne

Jesli chodzi o Samuraja to taki ubogi kuzyn Cowboya Bebopa (brakuje tylko Edwarda

) - zostanie raczej w jego cieniu co nie znaczy ze jest zly - wrecz przeciwnie

Fajnie sie ogladalo i bylo pare momentow przy ktorym ROTFL na podlodze byl wiecej niz na miejscu (ci rapujacy kolesie mnie po prostu rozjebali). Muza tez spoko, nie liczac kawalka ktory leci na poczatku kazdego odcinka - japonski rap/hip-hop jest przerazajacy

A co do Security Checkpoint to mam nadzieje ze mimo wszystko R2 bedzie lepsza od oryginalu bo ale poczekamy - zobaczymy co z tego wyjdzie

~drzejan Aug 26, 2005

Szczerze powiem ze Elfen Lied widzialem dwa razy. Po pierwszym obejrzeniu pierwsza rzecza jaka zrobilem bylo sprawdzenie na stronie serii czy nie ma wzmianki o kontynuacji bo zakonczenie jest calkiem otwarte. Instytut tego zlego to zdecydowanie powinien byc zniszczony, zwlaszcza ze on takze byl "zmutowany". Po drugie, bylo powiedziane w serii ze w ciagu ilus lat cala populacja bedzie juz zmutowana. Malo pozytywne, zwlaszcza ze bylo takze wspomniane ze instynktownie mutanty (nie pamietam juz jak dokladnie sie nazywaly) zabijaly ludzi (scena z psem jak ja ugryzl pies a wlascicielowi odpadla glowa).

Scena z psem rzeczywiscie byla mocno derastyczna, az nierealna zeby ktos byl tak... chory by zrobic cos takiego (w sumie dobrze tym dzieciakom ze ich rozerwala)

.

W sumie dziwne ze ta seria nie przeszla jako klasyka, chociarz wiele odob ja zachwala (nawet niejaki Resil po rocznym opoznieniu). Daje do myslenia.

Samurai Champloo, taki maly odskok w bok, przynajmniej na poczatyku (widziales juz calosc?). Moimi faworytami sa odcinki w ktorych:
- zapalilo sie pole 'ziolek' i wszyscy mieli swoje magiczne wizje

- jak odnalezli 'drukarnie falszywych pieniedzy' pod domem schadzek, co na poczatku znalezli w stawie woreczek kasy

(poprostu scena jak Mugen sie dobieral do swojej pani a Jin mial jakiegos chyba faceta przebranego za kobiete)
- odcinek z holendrami, i jak nie ulec wrazeniu ze sie uprzedzamy do nich :>
- poszukiwanie kogos z okularami... slomiane okulary, tez niezle
Pewnie by sie jeszcze jakies znalazly, ale tak na poczekaniu to te skojarzylem. Dobry tez byl odcinek, choc juz z tych powaznych jak Jin spotkal pustelnika, ktory nazwal sie John zaraz potem jak powiedzial cicho Musashi Miyamoto (legendarny samurai ktory stworzyl/ujednolicil i spisal podstawy sztuki walki i kodeksu)

Przy twojej odpowiedzi odnosnie projektu przypomnial mi sie stary tekst z pewnego kanalu: 'pozyjemy zobaczymy, a raczej zdechniemy zobaczymy'

~ultimatebadass Aug 27, 2005 Digital Artist

No zostalo pare dziur niewypelnionych wiec moze powstanie jakas kolejny sezon?

Nie przeszla jako klasyka byc moze wlasnie dlatego ze zostalo pare niedopowiedzen i niedokonczonych watkow - no i zdecydowanie nie jest to produkcja "dla kazdego"...

Samuraja widzialem calosc i te odcinki co wymieniles to w sumie najlepsze byly

Hehe no stare dobre czasy kiedy sie na ircu siedzialo... heh... wszystkie te owocne dyskusje...

~drzejan Aug 27, 2005

Ja mam nadal nadzieje ze bedzie nowy sezon

Co do bycia klasycznym, to takie pozycje raczej chyba nie sa "dla kazdego". Na przyklad GitS, czy taki burak co tylko oglada Inuyashe lub Naruto zrozumie cos z Gitsa ? Moze byc poprostu to ze jest lekko brutalne na poczatku (robi wrazenie jak jednego ochroniarza Lucy przedziurawila na wylot, a serce nadal tykalo...).

W przypadku Samurai Champloo to rzeczywiscie lepiej bylo odlozyc na drugi plan te powazniejsze watki, a ze tak powiem wykorzystywac na maxa luzne kawalki. Kurcze, nadal chce mi sie smiac jak przypomne sobie ta noc Mugena z ta Agentka, co mu nieco przykopala, niemalze scena oskarowa

Co do irca, to niechce nikogo zalamac, ale stara ekipa nadal tam siedzi... stara, w pewnym sensie. Wszedlem z czystej ciekawosc raz do nich. Byl Datrio (konto na dA), Dark Angel, Resil (konto na dA), Werewolf (konto na dA), Tidus (konto na dA), Aeris (konto na dA) i Sansana (konto na dA).
Czasami troche brakuje niektorych akcji (ta nie wolno bylo mowic zle o Noirze, pamietasz ?

)
