Well, summer's nearing the end and in all technicality, I'll only have one week of summer vacation... of which I will only have two days to myself as I'll be working all the other days. No real surprise there but ah well.
My 12 credits of summer classes end this Thursday and I have a feeling this time my class won't be an A like it was for the other two this summer. I messed up on getting things in and I don't think there's a way to get around that now, especially since I've waited this long. At least %10 will be taken off my grade because of my mistake if not much more.
I'm looking forward to getting an extra hour of sleep in the next week or so as for most of the summer other than Saturdays and Sundays I've been up at 6am to either be at work or in class at 7 or 8am depending on things
On the good side I finally got my Adobe Photoshop 7.0 CD back so I should be able to start inking and coloring my sketches again. I've been wanting to do it for soooooooo long now, and the laptop has come to the point where it dislikes going past showing you your background in the start up so it's a very very very good thing I got a new desktop in the beginning of June.
I'm actually half worried I won't remember how to color properly in AP7.0 O.o. The only other thing worrying me is my new scanner as I haven't used it much and it's a bit odd compared to my old one. The only reason I got it was because it came with the computer.
I'm also excited because in the next few days there will be a dragon hatching and I haven't done candidates in literally years so this will be my first hatching in a long time. Two young men who were kind of hastily put together but you know it was fun trying to get them done in time... still need a background for the one as I did him so quickly he has little to show for himself other than if you were to look back at one of my old characters who happens to be one of his five sisters
I guess that's it from me, Oh and for those of you who'd like to give me something to do, if there's a character of mine you'd like to see more of in color then give the name, I probably have at least a sketch or two of them from the past eight months as I tried to do one of all my characters to keep me going on things.
Also, I only just found out about this tonight as I was reading through one of my favorite online comic artist's little side "blog" Check it out and help me build

WhiteDove's Summertime Plush Give Away
So, WhiteDove ~WhiteDove-Creations (https://www.deviantart.com/whitedove-creations), and awesome My Little Pony plushie maker here on DA is doing a give away, raffle style. She's going to be giving away a Winter Wrap-up style Twilight Sparkle.
Ever since I visited my niece last and showed her some of WhiteDove's work she's wanted one, in the way that any toddler or preschooler would want their favorite characters. So I think if I lucked out and some how won it, I might give it to my niece for either her birthday or Christmas. I know for older collectors they might call me nuts to do that but I it would be something I'd know she'd love though she might ask me where Twilight's wings are
Of Ponies... and a plushie contest
So I haven't done much recently... at least on here. However in real life I'm still sketching any time I get the chance. Recently I finally broke down and started watching My Little Pony: FiM and like many others found a liking to it. Not a hard thing to do as, once again, many found out themselves, but not so surprising to me in that I do remember playing with some of the original ponies when I was much younger. With the new series it got me into trying to draw some, or to be exact a few of my own (as of yet to be posted).
Thanks to a fellow DA artist/friend's journal I got wind of a contest/raffle going on for Pony Plushies by White-Dove A
Art Weekend
So today, or to be more exact last night, I was thinking about getting that Adobe Photoshop that I want and it occurred to me: "I'm still a college student, maybe the computer store has it for sale there at a cheaper price." Fast forward to 5-6 hours ago, I found they did and not only that it was a few different programs of Adobe graphic stuff ( including Photoshop CS5), all for under $200 before adding the tax. Keep this in mind, the program is worth $699 on Adobe's website, makes it reeeeeeal good to be a college student and for them to have a computer store through your university.
Thus this weekend, pending World of Warcraft runs, I expe
Must.... do.... art....!
I seriously need to do it. My only problem since I got my computer back and working (hard drive died on me so it wouldn't boot, thank god for extended warranties).
I usually use Adobe Photoshop to work on any digital art I do however I realize that my version is way far behind (7.0) and plus it can't be updated because I believe my dad has the original copy on his computer and registered it to that.
So in the next 36+ hours I believe I will be picking up Adobe Photoshop CS5 (hopefully).
I've got so many things I'd like to work on again not to mention the over 5 year old trade I have to finish with ~AquaN (https://www.deviantart.com/aquan). I have it sketched, I just do
