Ping-Pong: Consistency! Yesterday I spent the most time I have yet just PRACTICING. A nice old fellow helped me work on my forehand. It was that back-and-forth style rally you see in Ping-Pong movies, etc. I did that! Longest rally I've ever had, too... Must've been at least 50 consecutive hits. I worked on my backhands and cuts, too. Man, I'm getting pretty OK. My highest-ranked friend commented that I have "blossomed" since beginning this whole thang. I wish I could play more than once a week, now.

PINAPL COLORS: Thanks everyone who has submitted colors to me. Sadly, I haven't seen anything that really nails what I want to see. Sorry I haven't replied personally to anyone who's submitted yet... I'm just too busy. I have to finish drawing the rest of the pages today. Then I'll hit y'all back with more definitive guidelines on what kind of colors I want to see. One suggestion though, I want LESS colors, actually. And LESS rendering. My style these days is somewhat "flat" and "wavy", so, the colors should facilitate that. Seeing people try to render my crazy weird shapes is sometimes painful :] But besides that, I'm stoked so many people are using my page to practice with.

I got my shirts from Design By Humans. My own shirts, as well as a bunch from the site. They are SO awesome. I wish I had a camera so I could model them for you. I'll probably use my Shirt of the Week winnings to get one (a camera). You should really own my shirt, you can get it right heah!

Sorry no recent activity on Ninja Rage-- This week has been crazy busy.

COMMISSIONS: The overall status is, most all the drawings are started, a lot of them are finished (you can look at the Com Page, but I haven't updated it in a while >_<). I'm sorry I'm like "biding my time" on sending them out... Well a few factors have led to that 1) Currently broke, 2) I'd like to DOCUMENT the shipping process (the special packaging I'm making, etc-- again, I need a camera) and 3) It's difficult to CUT THE CHORD when you freshly make an awesome drawing :o (of course, you shorty portraiteers have been waiting for over 2 years now... um "lol"?). Anyway, art for the masses, very soon. This all falls in that "thanks everyone for helping me live / being the reason I live the way I do" category, so yeah, thanks for everything.
