Okay, so coming back here quickly just to add that I may have been completely wildly wrong about Dandadan when I talked it up as some goofy, slapstick masterpiece of humour. Don’t get me wrong. It is. But that was also one hell of a sucker punch episode that we just watched tonight and I think I’m still in a level of emotional shock.
That’s the second time that I’ve ended an episode saying “What the hell did I just watch??” The first time featured tears of mirth.
Second time was just tears.
How in the goddamn…??
I hope someday I can do that to someone with my writing.

At any rate, feeling better today. I slept (some) and got through my work day. I wrote some! I sketched some. After a few experiments, this year seems to be the year when I’ve finally learned that taking goofy reference photos of myself for art is truly the way to go in order to map out a piece. It makes my phone’s camera roll look ludicrous, but it sure as hell works for getting a drawing off the ground.
I’ve also continued to be struck by the urge to draw more furry stuff, Alpha Base fursonas, character sheets for Prophecy of the Circle, etc. The bug has bitten me again since VancouFur. I welcome it’s return!
I think Errick would make a very good binturong.
Speaking of VancouFur, Tim’s showcase video is up, and it’s a lovely piece of work, and so I leave you with this:
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all who feel Irish today. I did, in fact, accidentally wear green.
