I hope my life becomes stable soon, otherwise a lot of my projects will fall by the wayside, like my Let's Play I'm featuring on Youtube.

And the reason I'm 'lonely'? It's because my life is such a jumbled mess, I can't afford to really feel anything.

I am sorry.

I have never meant those words more than I do now. What I did this past week was inexcusable and immature of me. I had been hurt by your actions, but that doesn't justify what I did. Allow me to elaborate on why I went so nuts over you.

A Wednesday or so ago, you had cut things off with me, and I was devistated. After musing all night at work, I came back online, going to a personal ad website my 'brother' had given me. I posted an ad online, determined to move forward, when you came back and gave me a second chance. I was elated. I had then proceeded to make plans to meet you, which for your own reasons you decided to miss. I thought by waiting and contacting you with no mention of a relationship of any kind would prompt an explanation. When my message fell through and I discovered that you blocked me, I was infuriated.

Yes, I admit I am the one to blame for this entire mess. I was absolutely nuts over you, although I honestly did not want to rush things. I wanted to wait and meet you face to face, to take you out on an actual date before I called you my girlfriend. I wanted to make sure we had a solid foundation before we made any major life plans.

All the pictures I've posted, they were all in play. Just hopeful images spawned in my imagination. Yes, I took it too far. I went beyond your comfort zone, and I realize that now. I only wished that you would have told me so sooner. All I really wanted from you was honesty.

I want to have a mulligan on the 'second chance' you gave me, but this time, you contact me when you're ready. I'll wait as long as you wish. If you don't want to see me anymore, please let me know now. I want to know whether or not I should start moving ahead, or if there's still some little spark left.

I want one reply from you. Say whatever you want, even if it's just goodbye. I'll be waiting.

At the very least she could have been honest with me, but then again, no woman outside of my family has been. If I owe you artwork, note me and I'll get to it as soon as I can, but for now, I'm aiming to get closure.

Have a nice effin' day.

EDIT: I know it's not close yet, but whoever gets a screencap of my 5,000th pageview gets a nice little image of their OC with me. Just note me with the image and whatever you want your character to be doing.

All I need from all parties are:
Name:
Link of character reference:
Number of pokemon each:
Pokemon being used + Abilities and Movelists:
Level: This is optional but helps me get a fairer outcome. Most of my commonly used pokemon are well in the forties through sixties.

It will be slow going at first, since I'm still practically learning how to layer color with the GIMP. I have much of the lineart done for my recent comic between me and . The only thing left is layer-coloring. Thanks for your patience,

Personal News: I have new game! You have to check my stats to see what it is! :3

You don't need anxiety and problems. All you really seek is a conflict free environment which can offer peace and mental security. You don't like the idea of being alone and, whatever the reason, at this time of your life you feel as if you are being 'left out'. What you really need is perhaps some 'tender loving care'.

You are a true extrovert, frivolous and outgoing. You need to feel in control of any situation. If matters are not proceeding according to plan you tend to get extremely irritable and perhaps become difficult to live with.

You lack confidence and that is a great pity because deep down you are indeed a warm caring person. This lack of confidence is making you wary of being drawn into any open discussion or conflict and so you feel as if you should let matters lie and leave well alone. But there may be a pleasant surprise in store for you. You are beginning to grow and very soon - sooner than you believed possible - this warm loving new you will be available for all to see and to appreciate.

You are an emotional, sincere and impressionable individual experiencing frustration and unnecessary stress. You are carried away by other people's enthusiasm and looking for that idealized relationship, be it in a business or personal situation, which you are able to share with a mutual depth of understanding. You have lowered your defenses in the past and you have been hurt, so you are now extremely wary of being exploited. You are still ready to trust people on the condition that they are prepared to offer you proof of their sincerity.

You are inclined to be too trusting and you feel that you need to be on your guard against the possibility that your endeavors and actions may be misunderstood. Too often you have been taken advantage of and you have been mentally abused. Now you are seeking a relationship which can provide peace of mind, where you can be yourself and not have the need to put on a false front.

... That is me! No denying it!!

Another thing, I guess I'll try out one of those 100 theme pics for myself. It'll certainly add to my library of artwork. Will post links over subject at completion. My evil plot to make sure people who read my journal see my artwork.

Announcements:

Although they are still working titles, I have plans for both a manga and a traditional comic.

For the manga, I'm thinking of the title Galactic Battle Club. Based off the idea of a fighting story. The hero doesn't always win, but also grows from his losses. Story pending, but need some ideas for side characters with more impact than background characters. Also need ideas for the organization masterminding the Club and it's functions.

And for the traditional comic, Metal Sluggers: A Metal Slug fancomic. I'm casting my Metal Slug OCs, but I also have room for others, if you wish to contribute. Instead of a single story based off two characters, though, I'm making more of an anthology of intertwining stories with this project.

So, to recap, two media projects from yours truly and Happy New Year!

Big news though!
Don't expect any shots anytime soon, but I have held on to a manga idea for well over 3 months now! It's bound to make it's way to this website as I get my pages together, but rest assured it is more than worth the wait.

]]> ~artman-ver2 http://artman-ver2.deviantart.com/journal/13780063/ http://artman-ver2.deviantart.com/journal/13780063/ Wed, 18 Jul 2007 09:37:01 PDT
I'm currently sketching a comic strip, and I may start posting it here. Once I get all the characters in, I can create the title page.

Details:
The title is Furry Chronicles

I am looking for new characters to be added. I have some of my college chums already in the story.

There will be strips of 3 panels, 4 panels, 6 panels, or whole story pages.

If you want to be in the comic, either comment or send me a note with the following:
Species:
Gender:
Age:
Body build:
Personality:
Occupation:

As for my mood, I'm not sure what to feel. I've been in somewhat of a funk recently, and my emotions are somewhat mixed up.

And I'm trying to set this in Japan, so mainly Japanese names unless your character idea is a transfer student from another country. On a final note, I'm basing most of this off the manga To Heart, with a few key changes. (And before any of you make any wisecracks about how that's a girls manga, I got it to help with drawing uniforms and highschool behaviors for an RP I was in)

So there you have it. I'm asking for help with:
Girlfriend's name ( saved for ) and classmates
School name
Secret organization (for plot)
Rivals

Leave all ideas in comments. Your help is deeply appreciated.

Other than that, my life has been alright. I need to get a new job soon, and the song Angry White Boy Polka, it's funny in it's own way.

Also two funny FMA AMVs I found. Warning, Envy fangirls and fanboys may not want to watch the first. Envy plays a girl
