I suppose I ought to get off my fat ass and post a few things that are relatively recent. Though I begin to suspect that /artist/ isn't frequently viewed by most Fchaners. Maybe its just an illusion created because they invisibly download and don't say anything.

This is a relatively old piece that I recently enhanced by painting over in Photoshop.

First of two quick pin-ups I was asked to do for a comic called Demi, drawn by Steve Crompton.

The original Fenn (seen here) was a distant Canadian relative of the Toad of Toad Hall made famous by Kenneth Grahame in Wind in the Willows. Once the toad finally broke his fool neck in some irresponsible stunt, Fenn was the heir to the state and moved to the Riverbank community in England.

Something I whipped up for Ken Fletcher's Spontoon Island site. It features a scientic institute that does studies in paradimensional applications -- ie: it can occassional bring people to Spontoon from other comic backgrounds.

A work in progress, possibly part of a series "Saara Mars' Walking Tour of the Solar Sysem." This is Mars. I have one other rough sketch of Mars, where Saara follows the tracks of Opportunity to Endurance Crater.

Well ya know, there's isn't really much for anyone to say on this board besides "Wow, that's cool. Good job.", and artists and readers alike would probably get bored with that really quickly. So yeah, we're here! We're just being kinda quiet.

That said, I like the demon girl. I can't help but wonder why she's in a mud puddle or why she doesn't seem to mind.

"I can't help but wonder why she's in a mud puddle or why she doesn't seem to mind."

Well, there, see.... there sometimes are things you can say. Scott asked for the pictures this way. You get known for something, then people start asking you to do it, next thing you know you're stereotyped. It may be that there's some connection in the comic, but if there is I don't know what.

>>919 Well, that's kind of a good thing and a bad thing. On the plus side, you have your own niche established, which is always good in such a saturated industry. And, if I ever start earning enough money to pay for commissions, my first will be a picture of a bunch of girls in diaphanous white gowns wrestling in dirt. Oo, or a KY wrestling match! You're my boy, Blue!
No.923 - Link Reply Report 923 2

There are worse things to be stereotyped as than something you are in fact interested in. I wouldn't want, for instance, to attract much business with weeping Madonnas and limpid Messiahs. Nor kittens in baskets, nor noble looking horses with manes flying in the prairie breeze.

I've wondered how Fenn came to be related to Mr Toad (who was BTW my favorite character in that book, for reasons that I prefer not to think about); there's no particular resemblance, obviously. Maybe an adoption was involved?

Saara Mar's walking tour sounds like fun.
No.928 - Link Reply Report 928 2

Problems abound. Should galoshes be issued to the tour on Titan or will people be okay with getting a little wet from pools of liquid methane? And what about Jupiter. Where do you walk on a planet without a solid surface?

Lady Fenn can only be related by marriage, of course. The Toads are not a bright clan and the Toad who fathered Fenn's relation on her father's side must have been a real clod if he didn't realize he was cockcolded.

For a couple of weeks my server didn't seem able to connect with Fchan, so I used Google to "find" it again. So I'm back. sigh Not much new for all this time... At least not much new that I took interest in.

Anyone interested in seeing a wide assortment of my art -- not just furry porn of one flavour or other -- should check out my Furaffnity account.

I've been putting a lot more effort there than here because I can put what I want up, without having to consider theme or board, but also because the feedback is phenominal. Over 3,000 hits -- replies, favours, watches and so on -- for 135 submissions in just over two months.

Image is a commission I'm currently finishing up.

Oh, and I'm curious. How did I "loose" Fchan? Did the address actually change or did my address book somehow distort it?

We've been using a new URL for a while, but a lot of people didn't know about it and kept using the hentaiplanet or no-ip address. Unfortauntely, the hentaiplanet one has been down for a while, and we have no idea if it's going to be working again.

We really recommend using fchan.us, as it's the official link now and the most stable out of them all. ^^

I see. I was probably using the other one, for no particular reason other than it was the first I encountered.

>>955 Ah-HA! Here y'all are. I kind of missed the shift and thought Fchan was down again. Fortunately this is not the case.

>>1113 Yeah... I remember Zero-G Lav. I'm not doing much here on Fchan though. Unless the art is postiviely filthy you get little feedback, and posting is a bit of a pain. I'm mainly at FurAffinity these days -- the return on my effort is much better.
