  1. I'm so tired these days, haha... Guess I didn't quite get used to the new workload that eats up almost all my free time. :K

  2. Finally taking the dive into top-tier equipment: I've purchased a cintiq, and should get it in a week. :D Excited.

      Happy for you. It's about time you upgraded your tools :) Perhaps it will get you off your but and drawing a bit more. ;)

      That's awesome, congrats! :D

      Heheh, yeah hopefully it does get me to draw more. xD Really looking forward to the upgrade.

      Thanks you two, haha.

  3. I have been debating for quite awhile on if I should work on learning another language again... and which if so.I think I'm going to pick Japanese back up.

      Looks like it could be fun, haha. I just may try it later on. :) Thanks!

      my pleasure ^^

  4. So far today's theme for me has been whether or not base 12 or base 16 is superior to base 10. If only it mattered, haha...

      But, we write, think, and record in base 10, so even if 12 'might' actually be easier to work with if it's what someone knew, it'd be pointless because the rest of the world uses base 10, haha.

      oh I see what you're talking about, but true, the 10 number system is not really all that convenient in a lot of cases. Which is probably why the hexa system is popular in computer language/programming.

    4. SFyr

      SFyr

      Aye, the hex system/base 16 works really well with computers because of how well it takes to working with factors of 2. :D Base 12 is at least similar in that half[6], third[4], and quarter[2] is nice and divisible because that produces some of its factors, where base 10 is a little messier for those cases [5, 3.3333..., 2.5]

  5. I just splurged and ordered a $100 art reference book. Yay for going overboard.

      I'm still struggling with making straight non-wiggly lines.

      Fabulous artists like you deserve a little splurge. Recognize my profile pic? ;) haha

  6. Hit 3/4ths, as well as 1000 brohoofs with That Bored Mare being the person to bring this to my attention on #1000. xD Feels sweet.

      Heheheh.... what request did you have them do? xD

      Just my griffon. D: I blame the spots has to be.

    4. SFyr

      SFyr

      Heheheh. Perhaps. I honestly thought the spots were an easy detail to include, even if they added to the time a decent bit. xD

  7. Number 67 completed. I'm officially at the 2/3rds mark. :D

      That Bored Mare

      Yeah, he does. Oddly enough for him it is more or less just odd really. He does sketches for everything, Well used to anyway. He deleted his Deviant art after his tablet broke. I think he is practising with a mouse now.

    3. SFyr

      SFyr

      That's kinda sad, actually. I hope he works well with the mouse, at any rate--there was a time before my tablet where I did a good bit of digital art using said mouse. Wasn't fast, but it worked well enough... though I still am horrendously fond of my tablet.

    3. SFyr

      Awesome to hear, haha. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. :DD

    4. Night Mist

      Night Mist

      I'm sure I will. ^_^ Didn't realize I missed them until you two got to talking about them.

  9. I am now about 1/3 of the way to finishing 100 requests. I think I'ma see if I can get that far, then see if there's much of a difference. Hm.

      I think I would have thought the same, looking forward. O-o I think having a good chunk done helps give me a much-needed feeling of momentum though, thankfully. :'D

    3. Bojo

      Bojo

      I've seen your latest work man! It's amazing!

      Night Mist

      May I ask what number mine would be? :o I want to know if it hits one of my lucky numbers.

      Shh. I'm trying to channel my excitement into work towards said finals.

      And also turn lead into gold.

  12. It's almost 2am, somehow I'm still up, and my roommates & company are practically singing Kumbaya through the walls

  13. I think I hit a new record for busy weeks. Three consecutive nights of staying up 'til later than 1am to get school stuff done. Weee.

      Hope you had coffee or tea.

      Monsters and sugar tea. :D

  14. I think I hit a new record for busy weeks. Three consecutive nights of staying up 'til later than 1am to get school stuff done. Weee.

  15. As school progresses, I realize more and more of my life has to be devoted to it to succeed. But, at least my lessened sleep and lack of freetime is being used productively.. Yay higher education.

      I can always suck up all your free time instead :D

      Psh. Well yeah, of course. ;P

  16. 'Bout to start in on my 4th college semester. Woo.

      Best of luck to you! ^^

    2. SFyr

      SFyr

      Thank you. Get to wake up early tomorrow to start in on it all. :'D Hoping it goes well, haha...

  17. Hiya~ ^-^ Long time no see.

    1. SFyr

      SFyr

      Sorta. I suppose I can't use that word. Anyways! How have you been?

      I'm also kinda curious about the new pony on your page, admittedly. :)

  18. Unloading trucks and backroom stocking hurts after awhile. :U Yaaay exercise, but boo limping home.

    1. Koukatsu

      Koukatsu

      At least you have hands. Imagine HOOFING it.

    2. SFyr

      SFyr

      I imagine it would be much harder, yeah, haha. :)

       

  19. Hai!

      Fair question. xD It's slightly silly (and adorable), but I think the most common approach is to hold the hilt in the mouth. Figure ponies are pretty agile/good about that at this point.

      Or somehow assume the pony can use it without fingers in a hoof. But, awell.

      Still, I hope you figure it out. Again, I'm curious about what you decide. :)

    3. CadetGrey

      CadetGrey

      Aw! You know what? I'll draw her both wielding a sword as a unicorn AND an earth pony. See what I like most. Also, it's really cool to see someone interested in my OC. :D I had no idea!

    4. SFyr

      SFyr

      Sounds good to me, haha. ^-^b It's also awesome to see ya putting the work into drawing her and deciding it all out. :)

      Heheh. :D 'Tis all good. I hope you show you're newest pics when you do them~ :)

  20. Your profile pic is Luna: we must now be friends. ..."Sorta" kidding, haha, but I'd still like to say hi regardless. :) So, pleasure to meet ya. I see that you're a fan of Rarity?

      So yes, Rarity does seem to be my type! And Luna....well I like the fact that she is a villain but not really at all. I guess all of us have a little Luna and Midnight inside them.

       

      Gotta run for now. So sorry again I didn't write earlier.

    3. Diva Pony

      Diva Pony

      I meant Luna and Nightmare Moon. Long day. :-)

    4. SFyr

      SFyr

      Don't worry about the response time at all, haha. xD I don't mind in the least.

      Anyways~

      I think that's a pretty legitimate reason to like Rarity, haha. x) I mean, I believe each of the mane 6 have qualities that are relatable to different people~ Plus she does have her awesome qualities in her own right. xD

      And I think I can agree with your assessment of Luna. :P
