Dark Ether

Another great issue!

I'm *very* glad to hear Posi is an Amber fan and player - as another, that moved him up notches in my book!

One thing I'd like to see, dear editors and contributors - how about one piece by the spotlight artist? Show off their skills. Something excellent, like THIS wonderful piece!


Seriously, this guy is very, very good - check out his web site or DA page - you'll see alot of CoH/V characters there.

Although with a few poeple I've played with, I think I *wish* they'd been drunk. Couldn't have been any worse.

Verra nice!! Congrats!

Actually several more than two. I think the rep is overrated. After all, not everyone on the "PvP server" does PvP, and not all on the "RPG server" actually RP their characters.

My presence there actually goes back to the old way the servers were listed - the lesser used ones were nearer the top, so that's where I went first, not knowing the order meant anything.

But since then I've spread like kudzu onto over half the other servers.

Looking very nice!

Very cool! You're a speed demon!

That's cool - I want one!

BTW, when I see the Brute one, I think Image comics - has that style. Good work!

Honestly, the hardest thing I normally drink is Diet Coke, so me and mine don't do alot of that stuff.

I know some do - there's a 'drink' based SG that started recently.

With the server transfer/name change apparently hitting in the next few days, I thought I'd toss out a brief questionnaire:

1. Tired of lagging it up on those nasty busy servers?
2. Rather soar with the eagles than trot with the Emus?
3. Want to hang out with some cool art'ed-up characters?

Then try team Pinnacle!


Seriously, if anyone strolls over that way, give me a holler and I'll hook you up with a SG with a fishing pond. Seriously.

Those are looking good! Now hurry up so you can re-open the comission list so I can jump in line!

Could it be that the receptionist isn't a huge nerd like everyone else at Cryptic?!

No! I refuse to believe!


(note: by now, it should be obvious that my calling the devs & NC staff "nerds" is a gesture of affection. We're ALL nerds to some degree around here, and I wear it as a badge of honor.)

I called the receptionist at Cryptic. Apparently his phone isn’t linked to “Castle”…

Ask him if I can have a Tootsie Roll Pop. I'll send my address.

Deleted?! Shoot! I was only 900 times happy, and wanted to know how to get the other 100.

Dangit.

Hippo birfdee!

Very nice compilation - and love the funky music.

Cool font you used there, too.

Great sketch - the water coloring look is working well, I think.

That is excellent!! Great work on this.

Hippie Birdie!!

Yes, Nice Pair!

Good night, John-Boy. Good night, Mary Ellen.

Oh, and ... Hey, Jude!

… I just can’t be led by a guy named Floyd.

OMG I can.

<3 Dark Side of the Moon and Brain Damage... and On the Turning Away... and Shine On... and many, many more...

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm rather partial to "Learning to Fly" and "Welcome to the Machine" myself.

I should have just hinted at

"Money get back
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off my stack."

Instead of my two dollars stint.

Personally, my favs are "Dark Side of the Moon" and "Dogs of War"

I hear that if you run the Rikti War Zone ship raid with Dark Sided of the Moon playing, your deaths will coincide with the song if you start it just right.

I'm sure Pink Floyd wrote that with the game in mind.


Hey, it's on the internet now, it must be true!!

That style of coloring looks like fun to do - I may have to try it on some line work I have.

WAIT! There are other MMO games?

Nice work, LJ!

Here's a few screenies of many of mine - not sure if it's all of the animal ones, probably not. But here goes:

You stole my KittyKittyBangBang!

[/ QUOTE ]

Eh, nope. I made Kitty after someone posted a "Help me name my character" thread last year, and that was one name I suggested for their AR blaster. I liked it enough that I have made and deleted a few instances since then to clear space on my main server.

I don't mind waiting a few months for a decent piece, and longer if the waiting list is there and I know beforehand, or something sudden comes up.

My main issue is that I have had a few comissions where I have had to repeatedly send an email to the person inquiring how things were going. I'm still waiting to see a hint of a piece I paid for from someone who was doing it to help raise finds for another artist who had gotten hurt and had some bills piling up - great thing, but it's been many, many months, and I have nothing to show for it, except a slightly smaller account balance. Another artist, after many months, refunded my downpayment which was good, but I'd rather not have gotten to that point in the first place...it's exaspirating.

I will always be much more understanding if there's communication there, and especially if I see some results before I have to drop my ducats in someone's account.
