Dragonball Z Live-Action Movie

So the rumour around the internet is there is going to be (maybe) a live-action Dragonball Z movie, if it ever gets out of production hell that is. This movie has been in the works, trying to get started for a few years now at least. It might be a Dragonball or Dragonball Z movie, depending on which sources you look at. One source says it's the same plot of the anime series, another has an entirely random plot set with Goku as an unpopular high schooler (can I have a big, "WTF?!") other sources will have slightly different casts, one of which listed James Marsters of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame to play Piccolo. Granted, I think he has the right facial features, but I don't know if he could pull it off. I'm sure because this is a Hollywood production they chose him because he is British as EVERY American-made film must have an Englishman as the villain.

In my opinion, if a Dragonball OR Dragonball Z movie were to be made, it should be made with a Japanese cast and crew. Enough said.

My Future

I don't think anything says what lies ahead for an artist after graduation quite like Amy Donohoe's comic The Littlest Hobo ( page 1, page 2, page 3, page 4, page 5, page 6 ).

Bring on the hobo fights.

Seneca Winter o8 Portfolio

To be honest, my life drawings could have been QUITE a bit better than these and my room drawings could have been MUCH better. A lot of the time I'm wondering how I got in myself with this stuff when there are so many people better than me. I just hope this wasn't a fluke, and if it was I will prove that I can do better. Really I can! ;__;

Portfolio requirements:
- 7 life drawings (3 of mine...ran away?)
- 2 hand drawings
- 2 object drawings
- 2 room drawings
- 2 of your best drawings (which also...ran away... -__-)

Winter Solstice 2007

Happy Winter Solstice everyone! The darkest day of the year and I'm practically a vampire the way I sleep. :P
So in celebration, head over to Jeff Smith's blog to read a very cute comic featuring his characters from BONE celebrating the holiday. Also, some advice for building a career as a freelance artist and/or paid cartoonist from Dave Roman.

STARDUST and 3 Legged Legs

Personally, I am for the most part against the use and abuse of artists in the advertisement industry, the whole "selling a product thing" doesn't go over too well with me. But just for the sake of being hypocritical, there are always exceptions to the rules. Let me direct your attention to two companies who have thus far primarily focused on advertisement: STARDUST and 3 Legged Legs. Both companies are bursting with AMAZING eclectic talent that really brings something wonderfully new and beautiful to a capitalistic industry.
