Everything Comes to An End...

Psyche. Thought I Would give up? Really? Wow...is the game I've been playing for 3 days and have become addicted to it all over again. I'm a Lv18 Hunter and have a panther named Socrates after some asshole I know(one of my best friends :D) I've played it before but its so much better when...wait, this isn't what I came to talk about. Stop distracting me reader!

First time I wear that tie
Last time I put my elbows on a babyshower table.

So some bad and good news. First off, I'm in Florida (Not inside the rapper Flo-Rida although I see the similarities) and can't scan in my stuff to photoshop and don't have photoshop to photoshop my photoshop-ables.(Geek tongue-twister.) Don't even have regular access to internet so you can guess I'm REALLY in the boondocks, a lil town called Kissimmee(its not a city according to me).
That's the bad news.

Good news is I've started drawing alot more with all this down-time and will hopefully do a few good enough items to post on here but as of now, I'm going on about a month and half hiatus. I know I'm not good enough to be taking these breaks and dammit if you know I don't want to but for now, whenever I get internet access, I'll post up pictures of whatever kind of cool thing I draw, this is Kigen I Draw Stuff after all...I think. Check your URL in case I have a copy-cat (which would be kind of cool and annoying at the same time).

Good or Bad news(You decide)- I'm going to go back to my roots (what's he talking about? He's Dominican, is he going to start carrying a spear?) No, not quite, if I meant that, I'd still get a sword anyway, cuz they're fucking Awesome...Moving on, I mean taking pictures of my work instead of showing the different parts. I don't know If you'll like it better but here's some whiteboard fun I had at my LOUD mother's house(seriously she won't stop screaming: "Help, help!" Jeez woman, I'll beat the fire off you as soon as I'm done with the blog! Now hush!) White board FUN!

"It's a me, Mustachio"

That's not right...

Info to find out about me (though most of you probably know me) is on the right and check out some of the videos I've been making on my Youtube account(which is a new clickable tab on the side). I'm going to leave it at that.
E-mail me sometime, I get bored:

GunDAMN Its Been a While...:D

Took me all of 2 minutes to come up with that title. Little foreshadowing and a little sexual tension...you like? I like.

Anyways, very sorry for that brief intermission. Shit, you'd think with breaks like that I'd be a big celebrity who could afford to take them. Nope, just a college student and right now, things are hectic. Finals are here, did one today and I was pretty content with it but what do you care, you're here for the drawing of the stuff that my blog dictates me to do (he's holding me hostage!...call someone...)

Back on track with the art commissions. This week, or better yet, for the past few weeks, I've been steadily working on my best friend's request. Now, if it wasn't for that title he has(OMG! BFF), I would've shut his request down without a second thought. Well, there would've been a second thought but it would've been more about violence against the requester. He asked for (like you couldn't guess) a Gundam...a fucking Gundam.(I might have to start watching my language, my grandmother hates seeing me write curses on this thing...she has to stop reding them then :D)

Those things are annoyingly tedious and I have always hated the idea of drawing something too complicated but I gave it a shot and honestly, I don't ever see myself doing one again unless they make Gundams cyborgs and that just sounds dumb so yeah, never again...unless for money. I even decided on doing Gundam Wing only because I remember picking only that character in the SNES (Super Nintendo) Gundam games and yeah, he's even harder.
I started out with a simple (yeah right) out line. Not bad took me all of 5 hours to finish it but yeah, simple...


Then I worked on school, tried not to fail anything, videos here and there and then finally did the outline in Photoshop and that took annoyingly long as well. So many lines I swear I was happy when I finished half, just so I could sleep. See?


Then after that gruesome part wa done, I felt ALOT better. Coloring was a process but it was easy enough to do. There's alot of parts to making the colors seem right and I wanted it to look a little better and to further my understanding of Photoshop so I started using the gradient tool. Nifty little thing and helped out.


I know, I know, the sword looks weird but I wanted it a little tipped and uh, yeah. I might re-touch it a little but I seriously don't want to look at this file for a while. Since it had been a while, I did a quick background that I think seems appropriate so stop teasing me... :(


There you have it. Wow, it feels great to have something new up. I had been coming back to the blog every now and then and expected to see an update from myself. A crazy idea but if it happened, then who was crazy to begin with? NOT ME!...he he.

BIG UPDATE: I started, get this: A PODCAST with my good friend Peter Sciacca called Tangent Combo. We did it a couple weeks back and only have one so far but I want to hear your thoughts. You can subscribe to it using a small button in the page so you can listen to it on "the go"(I just think its cliche to say that and wouldn't be surprised it was copyrighted byt Go-Gurt or something)
Here's the link: Tangent Combo

If you want to talk to me or e-mail me about something, I posted my e-mail on my profile and all my social networking stuff is on the sidebar...(this is a sidebar mom)--->
Follow me on Twitter if you'd like too. I may not update every hour but when I do, you best believe its going to be...kinda ok, good at best. Jk. I try to be funny, you decide if I am.
Peace
:D

That Surfin' Echidna...Dude.

Nice to see you again! Have you lost weight? Woww, I can really tell...Niw that you're under the impression I'm a nice guy, hello.Man this week felt long.Ok, so I'm a little late with this week's drawing but I have a pretty good excuse: Echidna's are fucking hard to draw. I took this drawing request from Matt, one of my blog readers and a classmate and damn does he know how to pick 'em. I struggled to make this thing not look like a bird on two legs, to make its mouth not look like a platypus mouth and its fingers not like claws. It's a clusterfuck of an animal if you've ever seen one:an anteater, porcupine and platypus...a fucking platypus... enough said. This is the first pic, sorry about the quality, it was with my Blackberry (I don't feel good if I don't capitalize my phone):


Ok, so that took me an insane amount of time to think up. I seriously had like 6 pics of it for reference and this is as good as I could get it. Don't like it?....you don't?...Ight then, I don't care about you, you're not my fucking moms! (You actually might be, I don't think she'd like this either.) Anyways, Matt wanted it surfing so...:

At the beginning, it was just a plain board, it was pretty boring to me but then, while in a class (I won't say which for "not failing any class" purposes) and decided to add Knuckles the Echidna to the board to just make this much easier to understand what the hell an Echidna is. Although I have NO IDEA how they came up with calling Knuckles an Echidna, should've just been Knuckles, the Bloody Jamaican Hedgehog, but I'm not a game designer so whatever. Here's a little color in your face. Boom!:

Yeah, at this point, I thought I was pretty much done but since it didn't quite feel complete, I decided to cave and actually draw a bit of a background, water does tend to add a little more credibility if you're pretending to surf (it's not impressive when you use your body as a surf board on the beach, not unless you have someone standing on top.) but I had never drawn water effectively since I like outlining too much but ah, here we go:

I don't know if I made the illusion that he's inside a wave tube but i tried. I just know that I wouldn't surf, swim or even tan near this thing, not for fear of getting pierced by its spiky back (how does it do it?...hardcore hair gel?) Just because I know I wouldn't be picking up any girls with this smooth looking dude nearby.(Ladies, he's single!) Just let me know what you think about him. I'll name him(her?) sometime this week. You can bet it'll be something radical (surf terminology, same as ninja turtle terms). Ight, remember, don't fuck with Echidnas, not because I say they're dangerous, they just seem capable of murder, I think its their naturalluy purple eyes that I can't help but fall in love with... (Knuckles has purple eyes thats why.) Anyways, leave me a request if you'd like. If I like the idea and think I can do it, I'll do it. Simple as that. Leave a comment, don't have to be a member to do it, c'mon! Do it for the LOL's. Leave your name though!

Alright So i Changed it a lil...

Some friends started getting on my case about the colors i picked out for Desert Penguin Ninja Mercenary...who I shall now name Ninguin (mix between ninja and penguin...:D...clever, i know) So I updated it a little by going over the colors and making them a lil darker and more penguin like, well, as much as a penguin with a hat's supposed to look like. Just a quick edit, will fix up at some point in photoshop. Might include in my internet portfolio if good enough.

Like I said, barely a change but might as well show the real finished product that's going on my door in Fort Awesome.
