Duward!

Sooooo, it isn't exactly that I lied.
Yes, I wasn't sure if I was going to do another art update, but now, after seeing Angela's work, I pretty sure I need to show it. You can't blame me or be mad at me, I mean, you can, but, what'd you going to do....you know you want to see it too.

Angela to me:

"Here are the first of four very rough sketches to knock out the overall look, feel, color options, for the characters. I started with Duward, since his description came first and he's a bit more complex than the others due to his anatomy.

The 1st pose is a rough anatomy base to get an idea of how Duward's posture is when on all fours.

The 2nd is when he might be standing up straight (his legs are in extreme foreshortening, which is why his lower legs might seem ultra short).

The 3rd's a basic facial sketch to define his look. I've given him a bit of graying hair in the ends of his beard and in the chops area.

I am thinking those trousers are more capri length that stop mid-calf with a split in the sides to allow him full mobility.

Since his back will most likely be to the viewer, as we have in the cover's thumbnail, I think his short jacket would be an excellent place to have a sigil or symbol of some sort. Perhaps we can add the owl/moon emblem to his jacket's back?

****To learn what the Owl/Moon emblem represents, you'll have to read Genesis****

Duward was tons of fun for me.
I'm too used to drawing pretty womenfolk so he was a pleasant change of pace!"

I love her last lines the most. Glad she had so much fun.

GENESIS (All Reviews)

Ok, Now they're all in one place: Amazon, B&N and Goodreads :) Amazon Customer September 29, 2016 5/5 A great read with deep underlying themes. By Author Jon Sprunk A wonderful blend of philosophy, spirituality, and intrigue that covers a clash of cultures and religion. Jak is a hero of the modern age, unsure and yet ready to face the challenges that await him. Amazon Customer September 22, 2016 5/5 GrimDarker ! I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and everything in between. Pacing was great and Wade seemed to have a unique idea told in a new voice. Loved it. I would definitely recommend this one to anyone interested in fantasy, especially you GrimDark fans. Amazon Customer September 9, 2016 5/5 The next Erikson If you loved Erikson you will love this!

Ink Master is BACK!

Yep. It's back! So let's do the rundown since we're already two episodes in. FIRST! They had to earn their shops this time, which was a fun and cool concept. By watching them do Convention Style Tattooing, you got to see a range of their skills. Most everyone did ok, with a few pointers needed here'n'there: Matti Hixson, Scott Marshall and Sausage (yes, that's his name) rounding out the overall best. Then they got into the final tattoos of the day, which was their choice...David Bell did a crushed skull and since he didn't represent it as being such, I think that's why he got picked out for it not being "readable"; but I think it was a cool. Randy Vollink did a water-color ship, which didn't look bad, but wasn't up to par. Keith Diffenderfer did an ugly, ghoulish woman...SORRY, no one wants an ugly chick on their body, I don't care who you are and the judges told him so. Everyone else kinda fell in the middle thereafter a...

My review-ish of The Last Jedi—I cut it into a rant of sorts, because of how much time has passed.

So, it's been long enough. Too long actually that I doubt anyone gives a %$#@ about my opinion. With that in mind, I'll keep it short, more of a rant, given that you've already read dozens if not hundreds of these things. Overall, the quick and easy rating system: 7-8 out of 10* (mostly for some big moments and nostalgia) 6-7 out of 10* (those moments removed) 5-6 out of 10* (when you really dig into the plot as presented) And I kinda bounce somewhere along all three depending upon who I'm talking to about it. So while I'm not conflicted about whether I liked it, I'm conflicted about how good it actually was. As in, which is more important: How a movie makes you feel or How well the story actually unfolds. Going off memory, let's begin with the characters— Poe Dameron In the last movie we learned that Poe was the best of the best of the best of the best..... In the Last Jedi, we learn he's also a dick and the fact he's a dick l...
