-Karnak temples

-Valley of the queens
-Hatshepsuts temple
-hot air balloon ride over the valley!
-Kom ombo
-Philae
-Abu Simble
-Colossi memnon

Not bad for just 8 days eh, the price was a little steep though at £777 each! However it is a 5 star cruise and to see all of the above i think its worth it! So to pay for this once in a lifetime holiday ive been working my arse off which is why there has been no art work submitted for months. I hate not being able to draw but by the time the weekend comes around im shattered and all i wanna do is sleep. I have like 20 unfinished pieces sitting on the table...i will eventually get around to finishing them. I am working on the final sarcophagus of Tutankhamuns ive previously drawn the other 2 so im hoping to get this one finished in the next couple of weeks .

Also 11,995 page views! Thats awesome

Speaking of work - i hate how much of my time it takes up > Not to mention everyone in the building keeps saying im wasted there and need to do something with my art. I dont know what direction to take now though :S

My pencils are currently resting from the huge Abu Simbel drawing ive just completed, they deserve a break haha.

I really want to push my self with the egyptian drawings, especially focusing on sculpture so im open to suggestions if anyone has any. I want to push my boundaries but i dont want something so complex that its just impossible to draw lol. Abu Simbel has been on my list of things to draw for years, i just didnt think i had the talent or skill to even do it ! Now that i have i think im capable of doing more and really wanna see what i can do and where i need improve. So as i said above - im open to suggestions.

Anyway ive rambled on enough for now....

Now you may have noticed i havnt uploaded any work for quite a while. Okey, so its been a couple of weeks but thats a long time for me! lol.


Anyway its just to let you know i havnt gone to mars or anything like that. The god damn computor keeps crashing even though its been "fixed" once.

So we now have an old tower, no scanner and no software to upload photos from our digicam.

As soon as i can find a way i will submit my recent works which include a colour pencil portrait of Danny Jones and drawing i have titled 'irate lords' which i am quite proud of.
So with a bit of luck i should have them uploaded by the end of the week.

In the meantime i wanna Thank all those who have given me faves over the past couple of weeks.

For now i must be going or ill be late for work.

I wanna learn how to paint realistically with acrylics. This is something ive wanted to do for a very very long time and i finally think im up to the challenge.
I dont think im off to a bad start so far, and so i hope over the next 6 months to a year, or so, my paintings reach the same standard as my charcoal drawings.

Im going to try and teach myself, as i did with the two-tone paintings and drawing by reading tutorials, and studying paintings of the same style.

If you know of any good websites or tutorials then send them my way please

If you search for drawing tutorials the first 5 pages of the search results are for digital drawing! -_-

Now conversations about traditional work dying out and digital being more popular are on 99% of art websites. 13 and 14 year olds are more familiar with tablets than graphite and i think its quite sad. (Dont get me wrong i have nothing against digital art).
Another problem with the few tutorial sites there are is that they are vague, dont have many illustations and are too dated for any one young to be interested in using them.

So, i thought about putting together a website (if i cant find a free one then ill probs link it up to my official one) to give good detailed illustrated tutorials for people to follow.
To make it more appealing i thought about having stuff like
'a step by step guide to drawing jack sparrow'

Base the tutorials on popular actors, characters & musicians to make it more interesting.

BUT as well as having the 'celebs' there'll be general tutorials on drawing eyes, the clothed figure, anatomy, noses ect. The general kind of tutorials you get in books that you usually have to pay quite a bit for.

There will also be a message board so people can ask for specific advice from more advanced artists and I shall probs set up a space for it too!

This is totally a non-profit thing i just need people who are willing to stick by it and take time to put tutorials up for people to follow.



Now If anyone is willing to do step-by steps im more than happy to put the scans into animation shop so the drawing builds up from start to finish. Im going to do as much as i can for pencil, charcoal work and promotion but its something i cant do on my own. (especially because my skills arent that great)
So i need people who like the idea of this project and are willing to spend time on it and to help out others who want to improve their skills or just start drawing from scratch.

If you're interested in being involved or your an artist who would like some tutorials that are easy to follow then please leave a comment, let me know.

Thats all for now,

xHx

We had to wait from 5 until 7 in a queue and then from 7 untill 8 squished like a sardine untill the guys came on stage, so it wasnt too bad.

Unfoturnatly we didnt make it to the barrier BUT we werent that far from the the front either!

setlist was

5 colours in her hair
please please
sorrys not good enough (which, by the the way is their next single )
star girl

I was so SO chuffed to hear sorrys not good enough live as its my fave track from the album and i didnt go to any of the tour dates.

The bad bit, our camera flippin sucks!!! it blurred all the pictures so i did a lot of videoing instead.

Theres two photos here

They would have been good aswell if it werent for the blurr! So im not very happy about that.
I am actually going to try and draw danny in pic 1 as you can see his face, although blurry you can just make it out.


All in all it was a good night, great performance from the lads, pretty good view and not too long of a wait (although my sister and her mate would disagree lol).

So go check it out


I also have Son of Dorks 'we're not alone' so if anyone wants it let me know. ]]> ~FuNkYcHiCkEtTe http://FuNkYcHiCkEtTe.deviantart.com/journal/8223712/ http://FuNkYcHiCkEtTe.deviantart.com/journal/8223712/ Tue, 21 Mar 2006 16:24:28 PST
The Beatles, The beach boys, The kinks and Busted. It makes perfect sense when
you think about it. While The white stripes have created their own mystical folklore, Radiohead have pushed boundaries and Franz ferdinand had nice fringes, Busted changed the entire musical climate in just a few years. Quite simply, they could well be the most influential band of the last decade.

Yes. Ridiculous to think it now, but we're not joking. Busted sold a lot of records before they split up, numerous number one singles, two successful albums, sell out tours and thats not even the half of it.

McFLY. Thats down to Busted. So all those chart smashes, even the ones JAMES BOURNE didnt help write - they may well not have sold so well without them. Freefaller and The noise next door; we can ignore them. Regardless, the bublegum pop market was shook to the foundations by the three boys who could all jump at the same time.

It wasnt just the sound of pop either. Street-teaming, at its most cynical level, was mastered by the management team behind the band. Sending kids into school with goodies to give to their mates, winning loyalty that money couldnt (but obviously could) buy is a skill thats taken on by every chart act worth their salt since. Appearing every saturday on kids TV did them no harm either, and embedded their cheeky pop-punk into the minds of every school kid up and down the country. While Busted were around who actually cared about Westlife ?

Buts thats all part of being in the biggest pop band around. This is far bigger than that.

Greenday owe everything to Busted
Okey, mabye not everything, but when the pieces of the jigsaw are put together, its pretty clear that the watered down sugar sweet punk that Busted fed to the kids is probably directly the cause of Greendays 'american idiot' doing so well this side of the pond. Yes, it will still have sold a bucket load, but with a whole new generation of kids almost chomping at the bit for more things really got interesting. The band were big news in the UK before, but with eight year old kids making their parents take them for a day out in Milton Keynes this summer, the A list was barely big enough.

Its gone further than that. Would Kaiser chiefs really have sold that many records if the only market open to them were sullen indie kids determined to shun them after a couple of re-released singles? With kids no longer scared of guitars and gigs, its all gone mental. The killers owe a big slice of their pie to them too. Indie going mainstream? Look no futher.

And in the future? How many of the youngsters ordained into the world of music by Busted will pick up guitars and start their own bands ? The nest Strokes, Futureheads or Coldplay - chances are we'll have Busted to thank. Busted, their management and their record label at any rate. It looks like pop has changed forever, but by how much and for how long - thats all that remains to be seen.
