Still it's good to see you're still around. The new synthean part 1 sequence looks great.

A veritable slew of new updates and pics - please check them out. And please check out the art contest. Would love to get a bunch of entries this time around.

thanks.

Have a great Christmas!

Woohoo!

And enough teasing already- when are we ever going to hear anything substantive about Growing Up Gecko?

That's an issue I've been wrestling with over the last couple of years. I've had the basic life cycle/process portion fairly nailed down in my head and on paper for most of the time - but I feel it needs a significant amount of backstory/supporting characters in order to flesh it out as well as to create some consistency across the images - and that will probably wind up in comic form vice the series of individual images I had planned for the base images.

There's a lot more as well, but this project will probably just wind up being super big and complicated - unless I get really lazy first ;p I really do want to continue with it - just need time and money ;p

Oh yeah - new update. Art contest is open through the end of Feb.

[thrandrall]

It's that time again - more art updates. Also pending new donation project art very shortly - apologies for anyone here who had to wait, but the megaupload thing was a major monkey wrench considering the timing. Back to using Rapidshare for security.

Haven't seen any art contest entries yet - although the month is still young. I'm thinking about at least one more contest this year after the current one.

Nice, thanks! Commented on the blog.
I hope people do something for the art contest and there isn't just one person/winner by default.

A slew of new updates again - but no art contest entries yet

Still, new cluedog, new donation project from Engineskye, and slowly posting the last donation project on the site.

More stuff in the works. Enjoy! Feedback always appreciated.

Sadly only looks like one entry - but it's a good one.

Will be posting it later today along with some other new pics.

More updates - what a surprise ;p

Really hoping one of my art contests will catch on eventually...

[thrandrall]

One month from today is a special day....should have a little art celebration or something....

BTW - do you think I should give it a shot allowing anonymous/(non-registered) comments again? Just wish I could get a bit more feedback with all the posts. Frustrating that I can see a TG caption site with more comments on a single caption post than I get in a month of process sequence posts.

I think so, yeah. It's dumb to need to filter through the junk mail and keep it deleted, but requiring registration, well, most people really just don't want to. ^^;
