So Shawncee or Josh posted on this website having a sale on their videos about a month ago.
I finally broke down and grabbed a few of them. Let me know if any of you want any copies.
studio space
Hey gang ( last time ever that ill address you like that )
I have been doingresearch googling about studio spaces in tucson. From what I gathered, there are not that many of em out there.
So far only 2 places responded to my calls / emails.
Splinter Brothers& Sisters is a warehouse that have some office space. However they have some hard core welders and grinders ( not strippers ).
Their space is run by a lady from L.A. and she sounds cool. She said that as students, she will rent out the smaller room for 100+$ and I'm guessing the bigger room would be slightly more. the place is at 901n 13th Avenue, Tucson az 85705
The other place seems nicer, its at 748 N. Stone. The guy sounds king of like a dick in his email. He will rent us a room at $ 300 but it has wifi and utilities included. That space is 19x10 with "common" spaces, skylight, and a patio.
I just got done talking to another guy. He said that he has 4 buildings and he has studios ranging from $140-$300, and he was raving about the $300. It has a huge fucking window and a private entrance. After digital illustration, he is willing to drive us around to show us the buildings and the spaces.
So on friday we need to see all these places and figure out which one we want. It sounds like all of them are pretty lax and don't require a lease, so we would be able to go on monthly by monthly basis.
Just so you know, here is the break down
7 people (everyone) splitting 300 $ place is $42.85
6 people $50
5 people (for example me, josh, seta, colin, and bonana) $60 or price of going out 3 times
Basically it sounds expensive, but if we split it, it will be cheaper. Plus, were always looking for a place to hang out and do work.

Don't run with fire
okay finally finished this shit with sara welland, took all night but I think it turned out all right.
let me know what you guys think....this is that crazy. Phil Zimmerman is out sick and didn't show up so no school till 2pm...which is a critique. AWESOME!!! keep on kicking out this art shit it's awesome!
More WOP
Im worried bout this work, because I want to do the very first one right, and then Im sure Ill have more leeway and Ill do whatever the fuck I want.
I took bo's suggestion and increased the portrait size. I also tried to make more darker color. Im sort of running into trouble with the portrait hanging mid air. Because I really like the atmospheric feeling of the robot, but the portrait has to hang from somewhere,

ffffffffffffffffffffffff
Oh my shit, the convention kicked my ass but it was so much fun and so humbling and nice and warm fuzzies ahoy ; ;. I got two comic book offers, a story book one and asked to be interviewed (which I declined because I'm a nervous mess whatwhat) I'm so derpy as usual and forgot to photograph most of my commissions.. I was seriously struggling to finish them all on Sunday. LOL. Here is a small fraction of them, ect:
Oh yes! By the way, there is another convention coming up in Tucson at the beginning of November (5th-6th). It's Tucson Comic Con! One of the artists recommended this show to me so it'll be my first time attending and selling at a table there. It is unbelievably cheap if you just wanna attend ($3 for the day or $5 for both days). And I am more than happy to let you guys chill at my table/take commissions/sell prints/pretty much whatever. ♥
No class Tuesday
Ok, so.. for anyone who hasn't checked their catmail, David cancelled Tuesday's class also. Apparently he's in Pittsburg while his dad is getting placed in hospice care.
Anyway, he's posted a new (revised) schedule for the Game/Sequential project.
...just a head's up.

David's FLASH assignment
I realize this is late, but oh well.
In lieu of Thursday's sketchbook topic, and since we had such an off week due to David's absence, I figure we simply embrace the topic David provided us since it's due Tuesday anyway!
The topic he gave is "Bird Calling Competition".
I imagine everyone will have made atleast 1 variant sketch for this assignment, so they can use that if they want, otherwise just post what you intend to turn in to David on Tuesday.

SKETCHBOOK TRADE LIST
This is the official list for who trades to who with all sketchbooks! From here on out know who you trade to and give them something to look at when you pass the book along. :)
1. Shawncee
2. Joshua
3. Bo
4. Holly
5. Colin
6. Sergei
7. Cindy
You always pass to the next person on the list...so for example Josh (#2) passes his book to Bo (#3), and receives a book from Shawncee (#1). This goes for everyone...pass to the person next on the list and receive a book from the person before you.
SPECIAL RULE: the last person on the list will always pass to the first person on the list...

Took a break from cutting prints and scanned the sketches from the book I currently have. You can get them from my site. I'll post here when I update it again.

Sorry the scans are kind of weird, I didn't wanna break the binding trying to lay it flat..
Here's my first sketch from ages ago it feels like.
Take care.
