Hey, guys. I've been sorting through the massive backlog of dA journals and two of which stood out in particular, so I thought I'd share them with you. The first is a bit depressing, but the second is pretty funny so it should bring you guys back up.

~
Alexius wrote a journal about shipbreakers.
[link] Actually, I had seen photographs about these at the Grand Rapids art museum a while back, so this is all still fairly new to me. In certain respects, it really does resemble a hell on earth. I wouldn't be surprised if that's where the film 'What Dreams May Come' got their concept with the ships from. (Good movie, by the way.

) When I read it was in India, I was reminded of my world religions class, specifically about Hinduism and their philosophy that living is suffering. A shipbreaker's life truly is suffering.

StevenSanchez, to bring you guys back up, tends to write a lot of journals that include links to various, often funny, videos. Well, this one in particular made me laugh.
[link] "ItsJustSomeRandomGuy" on YouTube made a bunch of comical little videos using, specifically, Marvel and DC superhero action figures.

It started out as a series parodying the Mac vs. PC commercials, here as Marvel vs. DC., then evolved into this saga of videos that take place in a bar run by Stan Lee.

Trust me, if you like 'Robot Chicken', you'll get a kick out of these.
On a final note, the Night/Day Watch pin-up is coming along, albeit slowly but surely. It got a lot more detailed than I anticipated.

This may be the only print I have ready for the Motor City Convention. Nevertheless, it shall be awesome. I'll post the black-and-white drawing when it's done. I anticipate that it will be sometime early next week.

ARTIST FEATURE

In the spirit of community, I decided to feature a different, fellow dA'er fairly regularly. To the artists: please don't feel obligated to do the same, this is just something I wanted to do. I enjoy your work and I want others to as well.
EDIT: This is a repeat. I'll get to another artist soon.
This journal's featured artist is... (drum roll, please)...


Jmao!

Here is one such artist whose work is good, yet still relatively unrecognized. I thought that it was time he got some extra attention. His drawings of the Kanker sisters from the 'Ed, Edd & Eddy' cartoon were the first that I came across. I've known ~
jmao for a while now on dA and his stuff just keeps getting better and better. So go check him out!

And to that end, I salute you!

Keep up the good work!

If you were, to say, take commissions for a drawing like those, how much would you charge (hypothetically)?
