I think it's time to finally face up to the truth that I should have addressed months ago: I haven't been working on Hallowed Turf. At. All.

Consequently, the time has come to 'put it too bed'. I've had a few pages that are SO CLOSE it completion, yet I havn't touched them. I've has 'concept pieces' that should of kick started my creativity, but didn't. :invisible:

I'll be the first to admit I bit off more than I could chew with the story I had planned. Moreover I started Hallowed Turf with such energetic, but oh so naive optimism ('100 pages?? EASY!!!' lol. Fool. :XD: ) However at some point reality comes to bite you in the behin ]]> http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/FREE-BACON-279957014 http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/FREE-BACON-279957014 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:47:15 PST FREE BACON! nonadult journals/personal Choo1701 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2012-2013 ~Choo1701
Wow, okay, so its been October/Novemeber since I lasted updated. I've come on today and been flabbergasted by all the favourites that have sprung up! Thank you everyone. Now excuse me while I talk on and on and on about my life like a teenage girl... =p

Later half of 2011 Blues.

First off the very bad: I let down a Friend whose an AMAZING writer, and who asked me to try drawing one of his comic scripts. Being the idiot that I was, I let that slide badly. Ultimately, yes that partnership went before it started.

Thank you to everyone for favouriting, commenting, and watching on "My Little Damn Ponies." I had no idea how well mixing these two programs, with highly passionate fanbases, would go down with the internet. :D Roll on season two in September!

BUT at the same time, while Ponies merrily trot on, I have been letting a lot of other projects slip, mainly because my creativity has been up and down more times than a decent analogy. "Hallowed Turf" is getting back on its feet (A scene involving a phone call and talk that became an "off the record" offer, which then became a 'farewell' party is helping. =P) and too be perfectly hone ]]> http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/University-the-future-243707741 http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/University-the-future-243707741 Wed, 20 Jul 2011 11:55:13 PDT University = the future? nonadult journals/personal Choo1701 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2011-2013 ~Choo1701
Hallowed Turf?

Anyone remember that?

See the funny thing is, LACK of creativity is why i haven't been working on HT. TOO MUCH creativity seems to be the problem!

A gaggle of 'other' inspirations (Bioshock Infinite has led to a rash, as has a "certain" recent cartoon program ... ) ideas have popped up and its just taken my focus AWAY from finishing of those damn conversations.

Oh, and I'm planning on going to university because my job kind of 'sucks' after 6 years. Too be honest 'm just a BIT late for signing up for THIS year. Since the entry window closed in JANUARY. Technically I JUST missed that boat... :D

So: any ideas ]]> http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/HT-one-week-page-delay-218113897 http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/HT-one-week-page-delay-218113897 Fri, 10 Jun 2011 11:19:36 PDT HT one week page delay. nonadult journals/personal Choo1701 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2011-2013 ~Choo1701
The whole 'two week  plan' didn't exactly work.

And then, well having a weeks holiday off work is fun. And filled with plenty of time to work on said pages. Unfortunalty real life decided to throw me many, many hits from the left field (including the main computer running into trouble http://choo1701.deviantart.com/art/4th-June-2011-212554006 ) so i havn't had much time to work on Hallowed Turf as i'd wished.

My apoligises everyone.

Page 20 will be next week :D

Maybe i need to work on channeling my Chi?

But unfortunately the buffer I have of completed pages has nearly run out.

And for the last week I’ve been running around a bit stressed since the next couple of pages are suddenly “complicated” and just don’t want to work!

So I made a decision (how adult of me): I’m going to hold off posting HT pages for two weeks. Yep just TWO weeks. Bit of a pisser this early on, but the short gap will give me plenty of breathing space to get pages sorted.

So Page 20 (and 21, 22, 23, 24, etc, etc) ]]> http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/Eight-219110186 http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/Eight-219110186 Fri, 29 Apr 2011 07:04:48 PDT Eight nonadult journals/personal Choo1701 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2011-2013 ~Choo1701
Moved house is the big one I suppose. A BIG move, and now little desk, having lost the MASSIVELY fantastic office desk (and my own little office!) the old landlord had. I'm down to just a computer stand at the moment …which the computer stands on.

Unfortunatly I've still got 'arty' ideas/projects buzzing around, and during this week off I made a quick list of them. The total came to eight. That's eight ideas off the top of my head, and if I rummage around I'm sure I'll find more! And i don't have a desk to draw/doddle on!

Many of these are fan art and not actually Hallowed Turf/HT related, which at the mo ]]> http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/Hallowed-Turf-Background-Information-219216991 http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/Hallowed-Turf-Background-Information-219216991 Sun, 24 Apr 2011 12:54:23 PDT Hallowed Turf - Background Information! nonadult journals/personal Choo1701 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2011-2013 ~Choo1701
So nearly fourty pages in, here's the basic story and character information for 'Hallowed Turf', my fan comic inspired by the Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis tv shows! Technically the story isn’t directly tied into Stargate TV series mythos (It’s an “alternate reality” fan fiction!*) there are still many references and nods to ‘Stargate Sg-1’ and its spin off ‘Stargate Atlantis’ while keeping the shows sense of adventure, humour an ]]> http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/Not-so-Open-Evening-221445150 http://choo1701.deviantart.com/journal/Not-so-Open-Evening-221445150 Tue, 25 Jan 2011 11:08:33 PST (Not so) Open Evening. nonadult journals/personal Choo1701 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2011-2013 ~Choo1701

Yeah...sorry about that everyone it ... seemed like a good idea at the time. :(

Really helped get the creative ideas going again, and hopefully i'll have more pieces to post soon, as well as this 'little' fan-comic (see todays new artwork) :)
