To any watchers who decided I was never going to add anything else and stopped watching, fair enough!

I will be submitting my work again from now on, but with more of a focus on my own work, not just fanart and submitting for the sake of it.

My recent posts have been submitted with comments disabled. This isn't because I don't care what people think, rather, I will be using this site as an online CV until I get my own site running to try and showcase work. This means some of the deviations are really just so I can send the link in an email to people I am dealing with as examples. If other people see it too and enjoy it, then good! If not, then it's a little late for revisions anyway.

One reason for not being here very often has been my final year of study. This was worth it to get my short film, "Better Than You" completed, which can be seen here:

I see there is a DeviantFilm section, but it seems to be invite only? Will wait and see if I can upload it there sometime. Other than that, I will try to go though the many messages I have been ignoring.

We submitted a few pages of comics to be published with them, and had never heard back since. Sure enough, when I took a look inside, two familiar name were in the contents section

The magazine is called Oztaku, and this was issue 1.1 (despite the fact that they have published before) Anyway, tis pretty sweet to see our work in print!

member of ~zoggin-eck http://zoggin-eck.deviantart.com/journal/7594822/ http://zoggin-eck.deviantart.com/journal/7594822/ Fri, 13 Jan 2006 17:23:00 PST and instead of complaining about it I'll actually see it as a chance to do something with my character who has been ignored by me lately!

1. What is your character's name?
Zoggin-eck (yes, that's a name...)

2. What kind of character is it (furry, anime, etc) and any particular race?
lol, he's just boring old human.

3. What is the first thing your character would think of when he/she first wakes up?
"Need.....coffee!"

4. Your character's favorite outfit would be?
Pink laced... wait, that's only in his 'alone' time. Umm, he doesn't really care so long as it's comfortable, but he can't stand wearing anything dirty.

5. When your character looks into a mirror, what's the first thing they would notice?
His bloodshot eyes. Get some sleep Zog!

6. Does your character have the same tastes in food as you?
Yup, he hates his vegetables, doesn't count soup as food and loves vegemite!

7. How is your character similar to you?
Well, since I'd never come up with a character before he is pretty similar coz it's too easy to base someone off yourself! mainly just physical stuff that's different

8. How is he different?
oops, already answered it. He's got long scruffy hair, and is lacking a gut like mine!

9. If your character could speak, would they have the same voice as you?
I guess so, but like everyone else when I hear my voice on tape I don't believe that's how it really sounds, so maybe not

10. If you were to suddenly become your character, what do you think would be the first thing you would do as them?
Brush my new long hair! oohhh....

11. Is there something about your character that you don't like how others think of them?
not really coz I've only just been drawing him. In fact, I rather like the way one person see's him!

12. What advantages does your character have over you?
He can sing! I have no talent (or concept) of music whatsoever, so I see this as quite an advantage

13. What disadvantages?
sorry, can't think of any

14. Do you have any secrets relating to your character that only you know?
not just yet

15. Do you have any secret drawings only you know about?
yep, tonnes of them. but they're only secret coz they suck, and should have been thrown out by now!

16. Do you have any plans for your character or are you working on something big relating to him?
yes, in that I'm workin on a story with someone else with him in it, and will be drawing like mad untill I actually draw something I'm happy with!

17. What misconception(s), if any, do people have about your character?
none really, coz more people would have to know he exists first!

18. If you could have just ONE characteristic from your character, what would it be?
His smile! I love the way a certain someone can draw him happy

19. Have you made any characters that go along with yours, based on real-life people, that have the same relationship with your character as you with the real-life person?
Well, shortly after I started drawing him he became part of a story with my friend Kylie's character Meika and two characters based on other friends, so he always has been

20. Have you written any stories about your character?
nope, though maybe I should

21. How has your character changed since his first creation?
well, I once had him with red hair, not as tall etc. though I've only just started drawing all the time so anything I draw now looks different to what I drew last year

22. Does your character have a girlfriend/boyfriend?
ooh no, and that fact kinda bothers the poor lad

Anyhoo, I can't think of who to tag, so any watchers with a character of their own feel free to join in!

member of http://zoggin-eck.deviantart.com/journal/7432630/ Tue, 27 Dec 2005 15:37:24 PST
um, I didn't mean to post a journal, I just wanted to add a new club icon to an older one and buggered it up. Don't look at me!!

here are 20 things you either already know, or didn't want to know about me

1. I ate two breakfasts this morning! *yum yum*

2. I honestly can't remember the last time I washed my car (much to the annoyance of my neighbours who do theirs every weekend)

3. I watch more kids TV and movies now than I did when I was actually a kid

4. I promised myself and others that I would do homework today, then I was silly enough to log on to DA

5. I have a total fear of some dogs, but I'm fine with others

6. I feel bad about having spent the day so far inside, must make up some excuse to go out!

7. I manage to destroy (out of curiosity) my pen each day at TAFE, but somehow find another right away!

8. My memory is pretty crummy, unless it's totally useless or immature information

9. I manage to get lost travelling to places I've been to many times before!

10. Yesterday I left a computer rendering a 3d animation for an hour and a half, only to realise I hadn't saved it properly!

11. I have little concept of music, with no real favourite bands/songs, which I know really upsets some people!

12. I think people are a little worried about how neat I keep my room, being 21, male and supposedly an artist

13. I have no idea what I'd do with my spare time if it weren't for Deviant Art!

14. When I checked the mail today, I noticed some letters had fallen out of the mailbox and into a bush. This must have been some time ago as they were rain damaged and half eaten by snails! uh oh, hope no one was waiting for these to show up

15. I hate eggs! I can eat food made with eggs, but if you can still see or smell it, I won't touch it

16. I am living proof that growing up on a diet of violent video games, cartoons and fiction DO NOT necessarily make you a violent person

18. I have great trouble showing certain emotions, happy is about the only one I get right

19. I still have to look up all but the most basic emoticons

20. This is the first time I've gotten around to doing a question thingy like this, and with the stupid answers I've given, you probably know why


Err... the precious few people who would read my journal have pretty much been tagged already, so watch the world come to an end as I don't tag anyone else! MUHAHAHAHA!

member of and ]]> ~zoggin-eck http://zoggin-eck.deviantart.com/journal/6665297/ http://zoggin-eck.deviantart.com/journal/6665297/ Mon, 03 Oct 2005 03:17:26 PDT and have written in their journals. Here is the REAL story...

They would have you believe that this trip, just like any other when I'm driving was full of problems but this is totally untrue. The three women were of course as quiet as a mouse (or mice) the entire trip. No fighting, screaming, tickling, screaming, swearing or biting at all. They wouldn't dare kick the driver knowing that he can't fight back. The most capable driver didn't get lost, take a single wrong turn or forget where people live.

When I got a flat tire, I took it with good humour, and being prepared for everything was not at all worried as my boot is full of useful stuff to use in such a situation. Not useless stuff like brooms, hedge shears and a bucket. And if I did need to call the RACV, which I didn't because I totally had a car jack and the spare tire wasn't stuck fast, I would remember whether I was still a paid member and not have to ask, and the woman on the phone wouldn't laugh at me.

Also, the guy working at the petrol station didn't give me weird looks because my entirely sane friends weren't washing my car, sweeping the ground in the middle of the night, recording weird messages on my phone *points finger at meika* and fighting amongst themselves. They were sitting patiently.

(try to count how many lies there are in all of that if you ever have trouble sleeping)
