On my hotmail and itunes it says I am working offline when I am online - I've been trying to workout why hamachi wont work for me and I've somehow buggered this up - its not a massive problem, more like a minor inconvenience but it's annoying so if anyone can tell me how to fix this I'd very much appreciate it!

EDIT: I thin i may have fixed it? if you have any idea to the problem in the first place still say becuase i might have buggered something else up along the way lol

ahhh, the wonderful day after the exam, when you reckon you did pretty well and are not pulling your hair out - I've definetly gotten a pass and maybe even a merit? :D i dunno. pass is all i really need but until Fine art and graphics module I was pulling more or less straight merits. have yet to get a distinction though =_=

i managed to get a page of Ganesh Cassidy inked last night before bed. I was hoping to do more but it took me a surprising 4 hours to do. I realize I haven't mentioned it much in my LJ but I work with a friend in London who writes the comic/script for me and then I draw it out. Our first gig is a short-story side part for her and her main artist's series "Unnatural Remedy" (should be out July I think?). On Ganesh Cassidy - Her main artist didn't want to do it so I said I'd give it a go.

it's a supernatural who-dunnit/mystery/action story, and the idea is to do some more after this :D it'll be out May I think, which I why I am rushing like a monkey to get i done lol. it's going to be in an anthology with 5 other people.

after that i need to continue on the Unnatural Remedy side-story and get an entry for the Neo Magazine competition churned out - a blessed 5 pages long lol :D

hope everyone is doing ok - i know on my friends list there have been some right stress cases going :hug:

I'm only half-way through with my exam prep and its taken hours. I have to be up at 6am, theres 6 hours til then. By the looks of things I'll be looky to get to bed til 4am. I wont get to leave colleege til 6 either becuase I need to hand in photography on Tuesday. Then I have to rush to get the pencils done for Ganesh Cassidy comic. Fank thuck for Red Bull.

A quick question - anyone got any music thats like Mediaeval Baebes? am on a real kick with them lately and reluctant to waste money on itunes...

anyways, I've been abusing the moleskine again - check it!

in between college deadlines, comic deadlines and general life, i have started a squirrel carving working from a magazine. pictures when it looks more promising :D


( 6:58 are you sure where your spark is? )

My ear cleared up about a week after my last post. Good doctor gave me antibiotics, and my balance was off for a couple of days. Whats even more disgusting is that it leaked puss everywhere until the Thursday....my pillows are disgusting and theres a little comic I did on it, which I will post when I'm not so busy.

I have deadlines up to my neck at the moment which has led me to being sat with a can of Red Bull as I get started on my workpile at 9:30PM!!!!!! I have my contextual studies to get up to date plus pencilling to do. Who says I can't pencil 15 or so pages in one week?!?!?!  as well as doing my contextual studies for the exam on Monday 28th!

Also, have been getting the shed cleared out for making into a wood carving room, have some carving tools (blessed generous Grandfather) and he'll be ordering some basswood/limewood/whateveryouwanttocallitwood for me hoopefully tommorow or tuesday!

:D so it should be a productive week hopefully! this'll teach me to procrasinate!

Went to the doctors, he gave me some antibiotics; should be clear within a week :D it doesn't hurt anymore which is good too.

my pissing ear and the side of my right jaw make me want to take a hammer to my head - went to be at 10:30, woken up by said right ear at 12, is now 1pm and the goddamn wheatbag is shite - we have no painkillers either.

no way in hell am i gettin up at 5:30am this morning to go to college feeling like this =_=

I've joined the gang of pretentious Moleskine users - it's sexy oil-card cover I could not resist. It is fantabulous to work in and just looking at it gives me inspiration. I guess £12 does that for ya lol. In real life, I have so much stuff to do in the next 24 hours it isn't even funny but I'll do it even if it kills me (and it will, believe me). I also have a colf and my desk is taken up mostl by kleenex. I looked in the mirror this morning to find my nose peeling cos the skin had been chapped so much and I just had my last Beechams flu plus sachet about two hours ago. Since my throat woke me up at 5:30am this morning, I'm not looking forward to getting up tommorow.

When I was 15 I decided I wanted to try making dolls. I bougth some Fimo, played around with it but couldn't find any armature wire and eventually got sick of just making heads. I started a carving after handing my work in early in college, and that gave me an idea to dig out the Fimo which after 2 years lying open in my drawer, still works like new :D

The first two were of Punch and the baby, but the photo didn't go very well, so here is the wooden head (carved from pine) and a handsome man of my own creation, Bruno :D
