Down, But Not Out

RK, dressed as a pirate, is down on the deck of a ship, slowly getting up. Looks like he's ready to strike back at his attacker.

Inked digitially, so I coult spend some time working on the wood floor — it's easier to do straight lines in the GIMP than on paper.

Desktop Background (Jan 2008)

Well, I got a new monitor, a 20" widescreen one. So, I decided I'd make a new desktop background, to fit its different aspect ratio.

The pics in the background are all up here (two under mature filter). It'll be challenging to draw stuff for this background, because it will take up two pages if I don't want to zoom in far enough to spot the texture of the paper I use.

And it seems my PRG has returned...

A treasure worth having

Deadlock has just found some buried treasure, along with a few friends of his. The message is a bit mushy, nut it seems he's also found something else: friends.

This was an excuse to do another sunset-type pic, and replace my desktop background with a new one (while keeping it piratey). Anyways, clockwise from the top, we have Vixenhound (a female version of Foxhound), Deadlock (Niner in pirate garb), Nyte, and Khaz. Kudos to anyone that can recognize the island on that map.

Conbadge, attempt number two

Yarr, 'tis be a second attempt at me badge for MFF, sea dogs! And it be just in time for "Talk Like a Pirate" day. This time, I be using a different orientation, just for fun. The shuriken be the weapons of those ninjas, come to send me to the Locker, but I shall be having the last laugh. Ha-harr!

First conbadge attempt

Decided to try a little experiment, and colour through some medium other than my computer. In this case, coloured pencils. I'm okay with the result, but it shows how much difficulty I have without the computer to help me.

In this case, I did some research to find out what you needed to make a conbadge; I figured a positive result would let me bring my own to MFF (assuming I can still go, there's some things I have to clear first). Of course, with the pirate-friendly theme, I had to put on my Deadlock costume.

So, what do you guys think?

It's On

New drawing of Deadlock, RKN's piratey alter ego. It looks like he's about to get into a fight.

How I spent my Canada Day Weekend

Well, yesterday (Sunday) was Canada Day, so we get the day off today; it's a long weekend. To celebrate, here we have RKN, as Deadlock, replacing the Jolly Roger with the Maple Leaf, even if it's just for the weekend.

I particularly like the way that written part came out; I also find it kinda neat how Deadlock signs with the icon on his flag. Yeah, this one was quite a bit of fun to do.

Deadlock (Niner's pirate fursona) holds out his rather unique cutlass, looking for another pirate to duel.

The line, of course, is from the Monkey Island series.

Sunset at Sea

Ah, the sea at sunset, where the horizon glows like a fiery brigantine...

This was more an experiment with lighting, and an image to update my desktop, than anything else.

Jolly Roger

Was messing around with Inkscape to produce this; my very own Jolly Roger (a.k.a. pirate flag). RK's pirate name is Deadlock, for those who wonder.

What can I say? I like pirates; though I admit I first got addicted to them by playing the Monkey Island games. So, I figured I'd try to figure out how to dress like one. I particularly like how the reflection came out on the sword.
