Wow, I didn't update my journal for.. months! Sorry about that!

Anyway, I just checked out my own page today and saw I will soon hit 50k page views!
Last time I checked it was half of it or so hehe..

I haven't done any kiribans for years so I thought it is about time now when I hit this little milestone.

Catch the 50.000 hit and send a screenshot of it in a note to me.

If you win you can choose between:

• I draw you something simple, a sketch/drawing of your choice
  or
• A feature in my journal

If you would like something else you may suggest this in a note. Nothing complicated though.

The first one wins!

Good luck and thank you for your support!

Time to update my journal so here it is!

I'm home in Sweden at the moment and there is snow and it is cold! *freezing*
(Snow is always cold but I mean everywhere)
Going to be here for a couple of weeks for Christmas so I wont be able to do any commissions during that time.
I will be able to start with them again next year.

I finally got to open my box with stuff I got from winning the Plans gone wrong contest!
Like an early Christmas gift
The bag seem to be awesome, perfect for artz n' stuff, too bad I do most of my stuff digitally and have no use for it lol.
But it had many pockets and it even had a little raincoat for it!
The sweatshirt was a bit too small though.. so that sucks.. *feels fat*

Also had this cute little letter from the Deviant staff I like to share.



Thank you!

Have a nice December!

So yesterday I went to F.A.C.T.S. in Gent Belgium!
Was awesome, I really wish I had some money to buy stuff.. so much art and so many toys I wanted..

But woah.. really insane alot of people!
I'm happy I bought the tickets online cause the line must have been 1 kilometer or something

Inside it was not walkable at all lol... and so hot. Can't understand how people could walk around with those suits.
Crazyness!

I tried to take some photos, it was not easy when there was no space at all.
And everyone bumping into you all the time.. group hugs for hours!

I didn't really say hi or got any free sketches though, they were all busy and I was not in the mood to stand in the line in that heat.
Ah well was awesome to see them anyway!
Ah and I also saw Tom Felton the Draco Malfoy kid from Harry Potter, many fan girls around hehe

Here you can watch some one the pictures I took [link]
If you recognize any of artists please tell me!
I forgot to take the picture of the name under the artists on some of them and now I wont be able to find them online

(the biggest comic, sci fi and anime festival in the Benelux)

I'm going for sure! Going to be awesome! I'm so excited!

Many famous actors and artists are coming, specially Marvel comic artists! It is going to be crowded for sure >.<
I'm gonna try to get my hands on some of those free sketches many artists are offering, I doubt I will get one but I'll die trying!
I will also bring my camera, lets see if I can get some decent pictures!

Any of my BeNeLux/Europe watchers going as well?

I'm so silly happy about this!

I got the DD on Panda Ride!

The one that won the Plans gone wrong contest [link]
First price and now this! It is unreal, can't belive it. Wow! *faints*


Here I wake up,  take my coffee, goes to the comp, half sleeping thinking "time to answer those 3 messages I forgot to answer yesterday"
Open the browser.. "500 new messages.. err that can't be correct" press F5 "525 new messages.. WTF?" presses F5 again and again...and it goes up!

What is going on?! Scrolls down and see my Panda ride in the DD channel "No it can't be?"
Clicks it and see the DD tag under it! OMG! What?? Ye? No? You are kidding.. Me??
Decides to take a shower to think about what just happened...

Comes back...press F5 again... 660 new messages. WHAAA! It is true! I got  DD!!
At this point I'm hugging myself and wagging my invisible tail!



Thank you soo much !sweetychan for suggesting it and thank you `WDWParksGal for featuring it!!

I been drawing/colouring alot lately but that's because I stopped playing World of Warcraft lol
Most of the drawings are just practise crap and nothing I will upload though.

...one day I was sitting on the balcony in the sunshine.. drawing hands and feet, just being totally creative for once  and then a lovely breeze came.. and all my drawings flew down to the neighbours..

An awesome artist is a crappy artist that didn't give up.
