oh crap.  Thanks for pointing that out Adar..ndchristie.  I should have done more research.  I thought you swung in over head, and swung it around multiple times instead of just one circle, and thought there was one string not two separate strings...  heh.  Good thing I didn't try slinging, I would have ended up with a rock embedded in my face. 

Faktablad, at 1:30, those high pitches, is that what harmonics on bass sound like?  Or are you just plucking the string above the neck?  Didn't know bass could do harmonics, would have expected them to be muddy and dull.  Also where did you get those crashes?  I wanna start recording music again.  But I hate fiddling with stuff to get a good sound.  Whenever I record it sounds like balls.

heres some sketches to keep this post from being artless.  For a bid at a small freelance job doing logo/mascot.  Dunno if I got it yet.

got frustrated with the page palette at pixel joint (7 colors and only 4 distinct values, two hues and an intermediary blend??) threw it back into photoshop and doodled on it.

A mistake is a mistake.
The same mistake twice is a bad habit.
The same mistake three or more times is a motif.

I take it 'oops' means 'I get it now, thank you?'. In the case it doesn't,



Tell me if something isn't clear.

yeah no, helm has it right.  it was a careless error as with the low eyes.  the head you've sketched junk works because you've changed the scale and positioning :P/

another quick doodle, noticed about halfway through that it was very final fantasy, so i sorta embraced that rather than try to fight it.  it is what it is.

Looks female to me, perhaps because i'm used to seeing you draw women more than men, but I think this is still very feminine.

The face is pretty masculine.

Great body, but I'm not digging the face entirely. It's the tiniest bit bigger than I'd like.

I gotta say, great design. I love your sketches.
