Artist's Comments

So here it is: the dangit bird. Based off of a fencing club joke at poor Brian's expense. This was originally going to be a fun little present for him, but I got rather carried away... oh well. I'm very pleased with the end result, except the colors change from moniter to moniter and they don't always come out looking just right. At least the fencing club got a laugh out of it. Yes, Brian did get a print of this, finally. Chelsea [that's the name of our teacher, not the student at school] got the extra copy. Hear that guys? It's LIMITED EDITION. Until I decide to add a copy to my BEDROOM WALL OF FAME.

Trust me, the original was a LOT more detailed than this. Unfortunately, if I uploaded the 300-DPI version, your poor widdle computers would CRASH and BURN. It was about 17 megabytes when I finished. I don't even want to TRY to count how many hours this took me. The sketch took me a week of odd moments, inking took a day, base color took about a week of lazy work, but the shading... three weeks of bipolar obsession. AAGH. BRAIN. DEAD. NO. MORE. ART.

Two words: TOO BAD. Hah! Hah hah!

Actually, their beaks are supposed to be precisely that length, since they're sortof-fencing with them. And the pink bird's feet are hidden behind it's feathery furry mass.

i'm glad your fencing people enjoyed it...
all those days in the computer lab with people looking at your monitor asking, "UM... WHAT IS THAT? :| " paid off?
:XD:

Definitely paid off. And cued another round of "Dangit" jokes from the teacher. (She's cool like that.) But I was tempted to start bringing windex'd darts to school after the fourth of fifth "WHOAH WAIT WTF IS THAT?"

Yes, I saw you working on it, :sprint:

This would make more sense, given characters would return to the planet later in the series and not face any of the negative effects of being in a black hole, such as dying horribly.

I remember that. You were working on your odd little red photoshop-word project which took an hour.

Your eyes aren't blue...
