I can has an Unf Unf?

Oh hai!
Man alive its been a while. Sorry guys.Its been... hectic. Thats one way of putting it. Who would have thought the life of a Bingo Calling Cartoonist would be so full and varied? I took a full week off recently not to go away on Holiday or anything like that, but to knuckle down and get some work done on the many MANY projects that I have on my backburner, especiaslly the Heirs to the Throne comic, which is supposed to be released at the end of this month...
I got 2 pages of sketches done. heh.





While thats not to say i wasnt busy with other things, my actual organisational skills are abysmal to say the least. i have however managed to get a few of my other projects off the ground, such as a long term video seriese on blip. yes indeed, Im working on a large Retrospective of the history of the Daleks, reviewing every single Dalek story from doctor Who, starting in 1963 and working onwards. Im very pleased to say the new computer has worked wonders and the video capture and editing process has been as smooth and superb as possible. Very VERY happy!

The Dalek Retrospective

Introduction


Part 1


I really should pull my finger out and do some Thumbnail's for those Video's.

I also have a few more goofy video's which I released recently, including my new Hat. Which sadly i dont get much chance to wear, due to me being in freaking work so much. gaaaaa.

So aside from enjoying iMovie on my comp, what else have I been up to? Well I was doing a large amount of screwing around in Warcraft during Brewfest! I even got my Ram mount!



I have been ADDICTED to getting mounts for so long its unreal, and at the time of writing you can check my Armory page to see the insane number of 64 Mounts!

Also I have pre-ordered Cataclysm. The Collectors edition, so yes, I will get a Chibi Deathwing following me everywhere I go!


But enough of that. despite 1 or 2 minor print issues with the Calendar I feel its good enough to ship and i am currently getting a list of people to mail it out too! Im nervous as hell doing this so please wish me luck... I'll friggin need it! Plus did i not mention? I updated the main website!!!!!

Head over to DENNIS Illustration and Graphic Design and check out the new streamlined look. im still working on tweaking a few pages, but for the most part Im calling that done. Now before i head off i do want to make note that i will be starting Heirs to the Throne as planned on Halloween, I just wont be able to release a page a week. Which bugs the everloving crap out of me but its just a sad fact that not only do i not have enough time, but i am freaking LOUSY with time management. At the very least i am being productive, just not productive on one specific task.... *sigh*

Plus I am superbatshit excited over this coming March, when i finally get to hook up with my Girlfriend meg!!!! Words fail me about this guys, they really do. I have so much shit planned its unreal. Swing Dancing, restaurants, movies and obscene sexual harassment!

Anyways, gotta dash now, i really should put some pants on and get to work! Adio's amigos!

2011 Calendar final stab

Ok, so I have a few days left before it will be too late to do anything about the Calendar. Do I go with how things are or edit it and end up buying even more copies to mail out? Opinions please!

Update to the cover

Well, at least this time I remembered to add the contact information on my PROMOTIONAL Calendar. Yes, the last one didnt have any. Im an idiot at times.



Also a better look at some of the newer images, and a few that didnt make the grade.

Calendar close to completion

Ah, so many updates, so little time. First of all here are the screenshots for how the Calendar is shaping up. Aside from minor tweaks this is pretty much how its going to look finished. All opinions and feedback welcome.







Also currently working on a videoblog, as well as some potentially EPIC and awesome news.

Noisy assholes

Dont worry folks Im happy to say Im still alive, and also gladly deleting any and all chinese spam bullshit from my comments. Managed to borrow an Acer palmtop from the immense and Epic Fidgetjen, who is going to get plenty of Mechakara Pronzorz for her kindness.

Currently working on getting the video tutorials on Maptool working so I can set some stuff up, as well as working on a way of burning my neighbour alive. Because Im THAT kind of antisocial prick.

Seriously, these Dope smoking assholes are a pain in the ass come summer, they hang out in THEIR garden way BEFORE 12 at night and actually TALK to each other and HAVE FUN! How fucking dare they! lol. Joking aside im just being a snob and dont like them personally.

Anyways, working on the final 2 images for the 2011 Calender, and then I can get it all printed up and shipped. Will try and post some more examples soon asap.

Full Pricelist

All text taken from my Chipin page at: http://dennisillustration.chipin.com/i-need-a-new-imac

Im a Freelance Illustrator with a background in Graphic Design, and recently my computer of 5 years cad an issue with the Graphics card.after some condescending attitude about buying a new comp to replace my antique.... I basically decided to bite the bullet and get on with raising the money required to get a replacement machine. The price listed is the absolute cheapest Mac I could get which would handle the work I do.

All things considered the money is more of a buffer, as I would end up paying monthly (which in the long run is more money, but at least Im not losing a huge chunk of my money in one gulp).

Now, Im not asking you to donate out of the goodness of your hearts, heck no. You will get something for your money.

$5 - Simple pen sketch of whatever you like



$8 - Pencil Sketch with a little more work and refinement



$14 - Detailed Full Pencil drawing. This is a step above a more basic sketch.



$25 - Fully inked Digital inking. Black and white art at its best.



$30 - Digitally Colored artwork.



$50 - Digital Painting. The most refined and high end of the scale



Any donations above these will be treated on a case to case basis. In order to get your Illustration simply include your email addy in the comment when you donate.

Update on commissions

Ok, so as well as the normal commissions I was inspired to set up a few alternatives, hence a Chipin page. The long and the short of it is that there will also be a set of cheaper and more expensive types of work you will recive if you donate.



For example, Im sure I can easily churn out stuff like that for $4-5 or £2-3. And there are of course the more refined Pencil drawings (not sketches) such as:



These I have no problems doing for £8-$14

Sadly atm Digital painting is a little out of my field what with my lack of a real computer/stylus but I can still handle the other material featured such as inks and Digital Paintings.

Will post the link and widget to the chipin Page soon. Also yes, I now have adverts up on my blog. Every little helps, please do click as much as you can.
