On the hunt......

Looks like Flicker is getting eaten up my Blurb. Time to look for an alternative gallery to show off my life drawings. Needs to be something where I can set rules and limitations since some of the drawings contain nudes. And well you know. Time for some research.

Personal site update

Finally my site host has provided new security certificates for my personal web site. Apparently it takes a few hours for it to kick in but we'll see. Hopefully there are no further issues. Will have to look and test tomorrow.

a new home and a Sunny day

Found a new web hosting place, well I actually had it booked marked for quite awhile but never had to use it till now I guess. It was pretty confusing at first considering it was a bit more complicated to use compared to the old one, but thank God I figured it out eventually. Just finished putting it up at the new place but I noticed it needs a few tweaks or two. Not a problem. Will take care of those later and will place a redirect at the old site too soon as the old place gets up and running. Yup they're still down. Guess its a price to pay for being a bit too easy and popular. None the less I really like the new place, its fast, no advertisements and its been around for awhile which is really great cause you really never know with a new hosting place. They change so frequently and can be gone in a flash. Lets just hope this new place doesn’t have a policy of only giving you something for free for a month. Sometimes these rules are well hidden and have a bad habit of biting you back. Anyways here's the new location of my personal web site.

Oh and as a bonus, here's one original illustration for the latest book I worked on as posted from last time in another blog post. Enjoy.

No GMO's set 4

Well looks like my website's down again. But then again that place has been having many other issues too. Looks like it may be time to find a new place for it. I would love to have a paid one but still can't afford to do that. But money can't guarantee that it would be stable any how.

Anyways here is the last set of the series No GMO's. 
Till I get a new site no personal website. Sigh.....

Dunking Dunked.

Just finished my newest and latest online portfolio. I need yet another mini port site since Dunked decided that we can all pay rich peoples money. So I had to dunk the Dunked. Oh well. Just as well this new place is way more flexible and more generous for my needs. At first the impressions I got from this site, snooty, pompous, for overly stuck up design artistes. But then I actually dove in and it wasn't so bad after all. Just to show you that you can't judge a book by its cover. So glad I didn't over look this place. Just hope it stays this way. What a great service for a basic account. Its generous with its space, and with a bit of tinkering very easy to use. One down side is that its a bit time consuming with the layout. Other then that this site is great.
So anyways yeah I needed a decent backup site to show things to people since my main site isn't always that reliable for it to be online. So hopefully this lasts quite awhile.
Check it out your self. ALLYOU

Changing direction.

Well I kind of changed my mine temporarily about finding a new web site after thinking about it. Instead I’m going to use this really nice online portfolio that I found at one of my favorite haunts for fellow artists.
Its really great because its quite generous with its space regarding how much content you can load in there regarding your works. Plus when you get the hang of using the stuff to customize your site, its easy to put together.  So for now going to use this as a mini backup web site for a more stable way of showing the people who are behind these potential job opportunities and not worrying about the darn site being down.
That unfortunately always seems to happen to me when I have stuff to show with my original site. Its embarrassing and frustrating.
So anyway, for a free portfolio site this mini site for me is really great and hopefully stable enough so that in the future, I don’t go though any more of this nonsense.  There’s also a premium part of the site of course but I really don’t need that.
So any one needing a really good and generous place for your portfolio check out dunked.com.

Its me again..... completed.

Completed this a few weeks ago but only showing it now. See previous postings.
Media used was fine textured paper with markers, coloured pencils and fine black marker. Normally I would use ink pen but those things have had better days although they don’t look too bad on the out side. But time has warped them from the inside I think and sadly. Oh well. 




Yet another thing that was making me pretty frustrated and bummed out lately. My web site as yet again had down time. Its back up now but has been down one too many times. Going to have to find a new place but its just so hard to find a new decent place with all the things I’m looking for. Got to get my own domain eventually.  


Prospects for new jobs still sucks but one job I just sent a quote and proposal to looks very promising. They want a statue painting which is very similar to a painting I made a few years ago featuring a cat statue I doodled earlier and then painted  in a tropical setting. I really hop I can get this job. I know I can really shine in this one.

Ugh....

Sigh.... Looks like my web-hoster for my web site has gone ca-poot.
The main web-hosting home page still works only the rest of the links have no signs of life.
Looks like I'll have to go host hunting again preferably something that works with Microsoft Front Page or a web page maker. Maybe I'll check on it again tomorrow but I'm really getting sick of this.


Anyways Happy New year again.

Scratch that.....

Humm it looks like I have some technical issues with two of my animations I haven't noticed till now. Well actually with Youtube. I'm not sure why that is but here's one that actually works till then.
Sorry about that.




A neat little walk cycle of a turtle. Originally a test for a friends animation.
