Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

800 Points GiveawayHello all. As I've mentioned in the poll, I am going to make a small giveaway on the occasion of nearly 1000 watchers! Wooo!
There are 8 winners and 100 points for each to win. BUT the giveaway ends when the number of watchers reaches 1000.
RULES:

To enter, fave this journal and comment below that you've faved it. Then I will give you a number.

You don't need to watch me to enter. But please keep in mind that the giveaway ends sooner when
there are more watchers.

Your account must be at least 2 months old.

You can enter once only. No alternate/plz accounts.
I will choose winners with random.org.
♣ Good luck! ♣
Minor update: changed from 1111 to 1000 watchers.

Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

BLAZE UPDATE (PREVIEW LINK)

by ~TheCoils, Feb 10, 2013, 1:27:46 PM
Journals / Personal

Mood: Optimism
Listening to: Pusruit of Happiness (Kid Cudi)
Eating: Food
Drinking: RUM!! hehehe jk,, Not till next weekend

Alright, I have managed to organize a 20 second preview for the Blaze Animation. It still needs some work, so I am working on perfecting these shots as well as creating others.

Before I post it, I must explain something. I am experiencing complications with my software, and I will need upgrades which actually won't be that expensive once I get an installation error resolved. As a student, I can access all of Adobe's programs for 20$ a month(as opposed to purchasing each one for $1000 each). This gives me consistent updates of the newest versions of software including Photoshop, After Effects, Premeire, and several others.
BUT, along with that I would also like to purchase a plugin that will allow me to animate 3D models inside After Effects. Rather than buying 3D MAX or DAZ Studios, I can ask my artists to send me their models and together we can work on different scenes, rather than me waiting on them to send me images.
This plugin is about 200-300$ but will step up the snake peril videos like no other, here is a link showing what I will be able to do:

[link]

Now imagine that quality in some snake peril videos! Along with the quality of the videos, the speed in which I'll be able to complete project will also increase dramatically.

That been said, I would like to request help from you fellow deviants. Voreville has plenty of CGI material that they can send to me, but I would need this plugin first. Would anyone be interested in donating to this cause? Perhaps after I post the preview of the Blaze Animation you will consider it. Right now I am only animating IMAGES, if I have the full CGI models to work with..
Another note to consider, if someone just full out purchased this for me I wouldn't mind making a custom scene for them. Consider it a commissioned work

The link will be posted here very soon :

Yo, have you seen Medivan?

He has amongst the best snake peril on Deviantart, no hype.

Check out his animation too

~TheCoils May 12, 2013

As a matter of fact I discovered his deviant page just a few days ago and I must agree with you. I've sent him a note, so fingers crossed and I might have another artist to work with.

*CD-B2 Apr 1, 2013 Hobbyist Writer

I think the clip is awesome! Your rendering is excellent, the sound effects and vocal track are amazing! I'm looking forward to seeing the whole thing! I would purchase a full clip/movie like this in a New York minute!

~megamanwe Mar 17, 2013

Just swathe preview and it is AMAZING, I look forward to watching the full thing once it is ready.

It is always nice to stumble upon animator a I have never seen before. You just got a new fan

~FT-TKLR Mar 15, 2013

Why not get Autodesk Maya? It's the animation program the big companies use and you can get a free version of it and can still produce movies off of it. I use the full software and it works out great.

~TheCoils Mar 15, 2013

I would have 90 days with the trial to learn a very complicated program. Not to mention it is less compatible with the programs that most of my collaborations involve. The plugin I am looking to buy can pretty much work with ANY of them and give me a wider range of visual effects.

~FT-TKLR Mar 15, 2013

Really? Only 90? Dang, guess it's changed since I got the full. Sorry I can't contribute more, I'd donate if I was in better financial standings. Also, sorry for not saying this earlier, but both vids were quite impressive.

~TheCoils Mar 1, 2013

Okay so far a few people have contacted me to help out with funds, this is good. If you are interested in donating please send me a note so I can get an estimate of what may or may not need

~Sqzher Feb 19, 2013

Ok! Been keeping my mouth shut so as not to add to your frustrations. But I gotta say now--that is awesome! Give me a few weeks, and I think I can come up with some funds to help you out.

Sqzher aka Coils

*kaafan33 Feb 19, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I will eventually donate to this once I finish a project of my own. However, what I will do in the mean time is post a link to this journal and your preview video on my Deviant Art journal and try to advertise for you a little bit. Maybe some extra traffic will help you get more funds going. Your preview is looking good and I can't wait to see what else you will do.
