Well I'm still alive for anyone that cares and I'm just starting to crawl over the wall of artist block I've been suffering from (not to mention all the distractions *cough*Halo). Finished up my first game character so I'm a little psyched(and relieved). I'm thinking about revamping something old, but I really need to work on my drawing and sketching(texturing was a painful reminder).

Well, who the heck knows when I'll be back so,
See ya,
Ookami

Well haven't posted a journal in a while, heck I haven't done much on devintart in quite a while, hmm have fix that, speaking of fixing.

My computer crashed last week, in a freak formatting accident, sort of. I got my Linux disks in the mail (Kubuntu to be exact), and was installing it onto my second hard drive so Windows could have the first. I finished that and then tried to start windows and got.... nothing, it wouldn't start. So I install Windows on another hard drive and got Windows started up. That was the good news, now the bad news is that windows looks at the first drive and basicly says "what the hell is THAT?", unfortunately all my files from the past two years are on that drive.
So now I have to get fix it software or I'll loose my stuff permenantly. 35gigs is a lot to loose.

I did get Kubuntu and windows to live together now, they're now roommates on one hard drive, otherwise they fight. I Really like Kubuntu it has a ton of cool programs, like Kopete which instant messanger program that can talk to MSN, Yahoo, and a half dozen others. It has really good office programs right out of the box. And best of all its all FREE, FREE, FREE. Linux is a free operating system.

When I get stuff fixed, hopefully soon, I'll post something on Deviantart. I wasn't posting much before due to some crippling and depressing artist block. It sucks to feel retard everytime you put a pencil to paper, but I think I'm over it now.
See ya later ]]> ~Bkat http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/6699782/ http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/6699782/ Thu, 06 Oct 2005 22:21:02 PDT
The tablets alot faster and way more accurate than a mouse, its pressure sensitive which lets me make fat and skinny lines with changing brush sizes (great for hard to reach places), plus it has lots extra buttons that save alot of extra clicking and scrolling (awesome for web surfing with built in back button).

But enough about that.

I'm happy I've got new pics up and a new avatar (does it look OK?). Got really depressed recently, but I'm feeling better now. I've been busy with pics so I haven't been checking my friends stuff recently, but that's getting fixed very quickly.

Feel free to critique my new pics.

See ya later ]]> ~Bkat http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/6634811/ http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/6634811/ Thu, 29 Sep 2005 14:33:20 PDT The wacom tablet I ordered a week ago finally arrived so I'm happy. It a little awkward to use right now but I'm getting use to it. That means some new art should be arriving in the near future.
Sorry I haven't been posting recently, but I either been feeling like crap or too busy to sketch.
My 500 page view is coming soon so I'm celebrating that too. That probably would have occured on my b-day too had I gotten my pic up on time. ]]> ~Bkat http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/6197820/ http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/6197820/ Thu, 11 Aug 2005 12:27:14 PDT
I just borrowed the Appleseed movie from a friend and its awesome. Definitely one of my favorites (I'll probably buy my own copy). I was pissed off that I couldn't see it when it first came out. The 3d art and animation are wonderful althought the cartoon shading of the characters is a little weird in a few spots. The stortline was a lot darker (where did all the humor go?) than the books were but, I think it made the movie a lot better. I really liked the music so I might go and get the sound track when I can get some extra cash. The exciting battle scenes and robot fighting were great.
Go check out the previews at [link] if you don't have a clue what this movie is about. ]]> ~Bkat http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/5880269/ http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/5880269/ Fri, 08 Jul 2005 19:51:25 PDT

Well, deviantart decided to suprise me with a one week trial. I was kind of hoping it would happen later so I could post some better art. Looks like I'll have to get newest pic cleaned up and posted for this event.

I can't draw much in the summer for some reason. I think it's because I have too much free time and I usually draw the best when I'm short of free time and should be doing home work. That doesn't make much sense does it?

Got paid the other day for doing some construction work so I can finally go buy myself a tablet and start practicing with it. I'll probably get a 6x8 Wacom Graphire 3. It's not the best, but I've seen people on deviantart who get along just fine with them. ]]> ~Bkat http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/5689970/ http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/5689970/ Sat, 18 Jun 2005 22:37:00 PDT
Today was an odd day. I woke up got dressed and headed for my grandpa's farm (That's what I do most of the summer). While biking to my grandpa's farm, I near get hit by a flying turkey (they not very graceful flyers).

When I arrive at my Grandpa's house I have to side rake the hay (rolling long strips of hay over so it dries on the bottum. Its not exciting but at least I get to use heavy equipment )

Nest We get the baler ready. ( I hate baling hay. It is the most aweful task ever conceived by man.) A baler squishes hay into a cube like shape about the twice the size of of a microwave. The bales of hay are then launched, out of the back of the baler, with enough force to throw the 40 pound cube trought the air like it was football. The bale lands on a wagon. (The naxt part is what I hate) then the wagons are carefully unloaded by hand ( I hate that because its like trying to move a 40 pound hedgehog. It's hot, sweaty, hard work. And you get cover with little bits hay which can really make you itch really bad if your not used to it.)

(Don't worry I'm getting to the interesting part... ... I hope)

My nest task is to take the baler and make hay bales (Yay I get to use really heavy equipment). So I go out into the field and discover one very important metal shaft is snapped in two. So I take the baler home (That's what I call my grandpa's farm even though I don't live there) and make a new shaft ( I'm very good with tools). I get that fixed and go back out to the field where more trouble is waiting for me. I didn't have the baler set up right so the baler was either spitting out really heavy bales or the bales busted (which is like a small explosion of hay and it makes a huge mess ). I made a mess of that field for a while, but I managed to get the baler adjusted properly. Not too long after that, part of drive shaft busted. I was moving along when all of a sudden I saw a chunk of something, flying through the air. It was immediately followed by the sound of the drive shaft flying of the machine while still spinning at 540 rotations a minute (which is really really fast). I was of course scrambling to shut the machine down. So now I my grandpa I have to wait until monday to get the replacement part. I hope doesn't rain by then (because wet hay bales rot and can start fires. I'm serious, they can start huge fires).

So that was my day.

(I apologize if this story bores you)
(I also apologize for the excessive explainations. I wasn't sure how much you people knew about farming)

I guess it was just one of those days... ... but a bad day at the farm is still better than a good day at school.

I just wanted to share a little piece of my life with you. ]]> ~Bkat http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/5428054/ http://Bkat.deviantart.com/journal/5428054/ Sun, 22 May 2005 09:35:23 PDT
