Briefs-There's nudity in here!

This is page 6 taken out of sequence. I have to redo Sutton's line to add in the word "really" since this is a deja vu of the thing he said on page 3.

Great. I gotta fix New Guy's Rt. trapezius. I guess I'll take care of that while I am doing the other stuff.

My updates to that page 6 in the last post can be found at post 7 of Panels of the week 40.


This image is a progress WIP of page 5 for that activity.

My Page 5 final can also be found over at POW 40 post 7. Here is the pencil page for page four of the activity.

Here's a plein air I did with a ball point pen on Saturday.

[arttorney]

I've been doing a lot of brush clearing on my property and NDA work on somebody's patent drawings, but I do still work in some time on this when I get a chance.

[arttorney]

Getting close to the end on the pages of this that I have started. I may do page seven some day if I get really motivated.I'm hoping to see the pages how they would look, more or less. Hopefully I have sized correctly, used bulletin board code correctly etc.

Here is the cartoon I drew for my blog this morning. If you care about the explanation, I will be posting the blog entry about 12 PM PST. I'm just showing the image here.

I got some windows on a couple more building sides and made some more guns. The blade things now densly cover all four sides of the main block, but not all the way down to the ground. It wouldn't do to give assasins a ready handhold.

Some of your recent stuff has been looking awesome. I also really like your political/editorial style cartoons. When you referenced "nitro" in the most recent POW! thread, that killed me man. That was great.

You don't know how I extract an RSS feed from your blog, do you? I keep forgetting to check it, but if I could stick it in my google reader I'ld stay current.

[arttorney]

I've been canning fruit from my trees and trying to drum up business for a couple of months and I let the blog lapse very badly. I mean to get back into it and I may be putting some of this 3D material in it since I may finally be finding my stride. SketchUp is totally easy when you get used to it. I am going to download and configure something called "art of Illusion" that is a little more sophisticated about the modeling options and yet reputedly still has an easy user interface.

The political/economic scene is very depressing for me now since the analyses I have been reading suggest that the current malaise lasting five or six more years is a best case scenario, and that catastrophic currency collapse is emerging as a possibility, albeit a more remote one.

I might not even have my RSS thing set up properly, but if I figure it out for you I will reveal. I remember testing it and it seemed to work on my Fedora Linux machine.

At 54, I am no longer feeling all that much "youth energy" but Nitro still has a lot of meaning for me. A lot of people younger than me have been dying around me for years now. With no realistic guarantees about the nature of the afterlife (if any), it seems clear that if one expects to get anything done then one had better get crackin' sooner rather than later.

That song came out 16 years ago. It's been good company all those years. RSS probably works, I just don't know the syntax for it off your blog provider. arttorney.com/rss? Something like that?

[arttorney]

That sounds right. It's an rss file that is stashed in the top level directory of my hosting, and is basically named "rss." Therefore, I think you might have nailed it. As I recall, I went in there and told it to give a full rss feed instead of a half-assed summary. If the summary works better for you I can make sure it is set up that way. I have notes and one of the benefits of blogging from the command line is that you have absolute control as long as you don't mind paying extreme attention to every single character you type.

Hey nice to see you back, wondered where you went. Remember reading your blog some time ago, you got a lot of intresting posts there - some are really scary, like the Chinese Growth Engine post.

[arttorney]

Back is a relative term I guess. You won't be seeing a lot of those political cartoons anymore because the situation has now gotten so obviously bad that it is not funny even to me. They are talking openly of currency war and US domestic political races feature unofficial goons on either side doing extremely impolite things in order to try to manufacture a negative reaction toward the other side. Our so called civilization is no longer deserving of the name. Incivility has become commonplace. Now I am preparing up to do some apocalyptic sequential work, probably in 3D. This piece is made with "Art of Illusion" modeling software.

[arttorney]

Here is some stuff.

[donalfall]

Some nice modelling going on here. That RSS never worked. Improvement since the last we've seen you about these parts.

[arttorney]

update

[arttorney]

just messing around this morning.

[arttorney]

The real world object I am getting ready to model here is a pickup truck. These are rough parts prepared with SketchUp which I have exported as Collada files that my Blender, art of Illusion, and Vue 9 can all open. I will probably use this as an excuse to learn Blender better since I can't really work with Art of Illusion on my 64 bit computer. Blender will be better for me anyway at the level of uv mapping.

WIP for POW 55 (Zombies). My entry concerns the exploits of "Thud, the Re-slayer!"
