  • things just got a little bit ugly around here

    well today as I promised I posted up a pic of myself and let me just say the forum seemed that little bit creepier today. Seeing my ugly mug everywhere is quite shocking. thank god I can take it down 2morrow... Or will I?
  • Things are going epic

    Well as the title suggests things are going great at the moment. which leads me to wonder, How long till my first major *** up. Just so you lot know My uni interview is on monday and I am nearly prepared grr lets do this!
  • A little niche?

    I think I may have found my niche in more experimental stuff. I have posted some of my best work in my sketchbook thread.
  • Yet another piece to add to the portfolio

    Finally got a project done for my protfolio. hell yeah. that brings me up to 3 or 4 decent pieces.
  • Appology

    Hi all. Alot of you know me as phoenicorn (well that is the name of my avatar). Any who a while ago (2nd of jan) I began the daily sketch book challenge and some of the more observational of you may have noticed that I have not been posting recently. This is for 2 reasons. First I am getting over a head cold (karmas payback for pokeing funn at those who hade this bug) second reason is as some of you may be aware I have an interview at university soon (2nd feb) so all my energies are going to that at present. So basicaly I am sorry for not posting my drawings at the moment. I will be more didicated after the interview and post all my drawings during this period.

    Anyone who is mad enough to support my conquest of uniship and eventualy world domination please feel free to post remarks here I will read them and they will keep me going.

    Now Back to the portfolio!!!!!

  • Playing Catch Up

    I'm behind in 2009 already, right let me explain. I recently introduced a college friend to conceptart and challenged them to a art war. Only started the project yesterday. Well at least I got started on my new year resolution (create a to do list and stick to it (tidy my room was the first task and that is done)). Any how for some reason I am starting to use the forums here more so if you see me lurking about feel free to say hi. Well I better get back to the grind stone.
  • End of year reflection

    Well now seems the right time to reflect on what has happened over the past year.

    Well there has been drawing obliviously, Met some prety cool people but the best thing to happen was enroling on the foundation art course, My tutors have taught me so much. 

    I would wish to personaly thank my art tutors for without them I would not have evoled as an artist as quickly.

    2008 has not been without it's crap moments. I got turned down to university. Also owing to some evil things that were said I lost my former best friends (not going to go into it so don't ask just know they were out of line to the max). Over all I have not enjoyed this year but hay it is somthing to work on. I value the crap years over the good ones anytime as you learn more from trials than the smooth periods and hay aslong as I draw breath I have potential.

    Another thankyou I wish to make is to the wounderful people on imagineFX and the magazine of the same name. Your work inspires me to greatness. 

    So what is instor for me next? Well I sent my uni aplication so I should hear from them soon. I am hoping to meet up with my old best mate from high school. Draw more. Start various personal projects (yeah I keep saying that but I am the worlds worst procrastinator).

    Finaly my newyears resolution. this is a tough one as I can now stop swareing at a whip (I used to curse uncontrolably over things that were not worth cursing over) I want to say become supreem overlord of my own flying fortress but I am determined to make a more realistic goal. O I know Make and keep to a to-do list. this will include my personal project. yeah lets go with that one, Make a to-do list and stick to it.

    I wish to thank all the people I have met had advice from, given advice to, Friends, enemies, Family, college the universites I visited and basicaly anyone who I met in 2008. Just know that you all have contributed somthing to me and made me who I am. Good luck to all in 2009.

  • the blog of the Phoenicorn

    Well I figured that I'd start a blog of my progress, ideas, and general nonsense. I am hoping this will make me draw more and more creatively. from here on out I will try and include a picture and try to write something each day. Feel free to ask any questions or even just chat. also if anyone wishes to personaly contact me please pm me. this can be for personal critique or just general chit chat.

    so with the general crap start lets get on to possible areas for my disscussion. Well a while back I was planning to start a fantasy card game so I may start that up. challenges with you lot may occour if there is enough interest. college work will be posted and disscussed (yeah I study foundation art and am aiming for uni next year). Possible tutorials if interest is there. and finaly crapy scribbles.

    To get out of posting a picture for my first post I would like to invite all to see my gallery on this website.

    Next post will be tomorrow. If there is anything you wish me to disscuss just say and I will consider it. Later.
