Clearly that leaves the responsibility in your hands to put on a costume and start posing... :lol:

Congrats on another win, missjay! (haha, my autocorrect just changed your name to 'misdial')

Well deserved - I think I actually said 'awww' and giggled out loud when I saw yours... Looks like Hunter Gorinson is really digging your stuff over on Twitter, and maaaaybe Warren Simons too?

As far as postin pics here, if you can upload your images to an image hosting site like Photobucket ( or something better), all you have to do is add [IMG] tags and insert the URL address in between the two center brackets... Photobucket even automatically gives you a full IMG tag you can copy & paste.

Well, I make my living being a professional artist :) I do flash animations, character designs and (mostly) other game related art assets.
I freelance and work all the time, and never get to draw for fun anymore.
One reason why I started participating in #fanartfridays - gives me a chance to draw something for me!

Thanks Josh! I actually was blown away by a lot of the art this past week! Really cool seeing your progress on your piece. I showed my husband, and he was like-- dang-- look at the detail! Thanks for the tip-- I'm savvy with some things, and not so with others :P
I think I have a photobucket or flicker acct somewhere... I'm horrible at updating - never keep up with those things anymore... Just my blog & my DA acct.
But maybe its a good time to get back into those things!

I am not inclined to do so but there is a picture of me floating around the internet at a comic book convention wearing a Dominion War era Star Trek uniform at a comic book convention. Admission was free if you wore a costume so I saved $3.

I love Star Trek -- well TOS :) - know that pretty well.

When I was growing up, my brothers and I watched Voyager & DS9, caught a few Next Gen epps, but never really watched it. But thanks to NetFlix... I can see what all the fuss was about :P

i like some of the original series but I was always more of a TNG fan. DS9 and Voyager had their moments but TNG is the best imo.

Thank you, missjay [and your husband too]! I am a sucker for detail when I get into a piece - I also have a DA acct., mostly up to date - have a peek at the link in my signature if you or your hubby want to see more.

Also, I hope all the rest of you guys drawing stuff around here keep it up and post to this thread - SonicDan [you need to post some here, your's are great!], orbitalshift, teedot42 & BTE.

[I don't need to prompt Dr. Solar, Marrowman, MarkRoseHFX, or missjay - you're all chipping in quite regularly]

Carson!!! When are we gonna see something from you?!

OH NO! I've been officially called out! I am shamed it's taken me this long to participate. I just know once I start it'll be a 5 hour commitment (minimum). I'm a real detail oriented illustrator too :-)

Really, I've been logging countless hours photographing Joes and building 3DJoes.com

It's quite a time commitment.

I'm traveling to Vancouver for work next week, so I'll try to get it in on the plane.

Keep it up guys (and gals :-)

Gah! I forgot to upload that X-O sketch I did last week. I'll try to drop it here in the next couple of days. Of course I have no clue what to do this week, I guess I'll slam out another quick piece at the last minute like last time.

It's been ages since I've done any character art. It's been pretty fun diving back in, but I'm no professional artist by any stretch.
