Program switch

Well, I finally got to do some more sculpting, however my trial licence had expired by today and using a 2nd e-mail address to get another key wasn't working, so I decided to give Mudbox a try. Best decision ever, I'm used to working with Maya and 3DsMax so I got the hang of it in no time, still have some stuff to fix but I think the base mesh is getting close to finished WIP pics:

Oh Boy! It's Nearly Here!

My shipment just got a tracking number! Soon I'll have the "little souvenir" I purchased in Sedona, Arizona. I already posted a picture of it in The Consumerism Thread, when I initially bought it. It was much too big and heavy to take on the plane, not that I'd want to risk damaging it by doing so anyways. (The airport had this lovely little wall of art, too: http://imgur.com/a/oSmZz ) There were tons of neat little gifts and souvenirs at the Grand Canyon. Sedona also has a ton of shops and art

The Mother Lode

Finally! Do you have any idea how long it takes to upload pictures this size to Imgur? Boy do I ever! These are a selection of the better images I pulled from my camera: http://imgur.com/a/bt6bN I also grabbed a few with my phone, including a handful of panorama photos! Not quite as good quality or as big, but there's still some nice ones. A couple filler images that were originally intended to be included with the travelogue Odyssey, LOLITS, Day 1, Campground, and Day 2 posts are present as wel

Day 2: And Then It Rained

Continuing with the second day of the hike, I figured I'd just give a quick run down of the highlights rather than a detailed story-like entry. I had the foresight to make notes at various points on the trail, so most of the important details are have not been forgotten, even though I didn't get as many pictures on the second day. The imgur pictures will be up either later today or tomorrow.   7:00 am - Up and at 'em! Still majorly sore from the day before, but it shakes of quickly and I'm left

Are You Ready (To See Some) ROCK(s)?!

Well the last entry had no votes and 1 like (thanks Vae!) so I'm going to post more I guess. Both images are from the second day of hiking. In the bottom image, you can see on of the long straight stretches that make up the majority of the middle and very start of the Bright Angle Trail. I'm working on Imgur galleries so I can post full size images with way more than 2 in a single post.

It was so much fun to be in an outrageous Rap CD and a live comedy show!

You never know what Halloween will bring in San Francisco.  You can tour an Erotic Haunted House based on “Dante’s Inferno”, at a landmark castle (used as a BDSM porn studio), full of circus performers ready to give an amazing show.  That was Hell In The Armory.  It’s the only place I’ve been that has great job opportunities for evil masturbating clowns.

"Implicit Demand for Proof"

Is it so wrong to question if this world is still a beautiful place to be? Is it so wrong to ask for proof that this world is still worth living in? Is it so wrong to crave a release from all of this? Life has dealt hand after hand and I've played its game. I'm ready to fold; always ready.     Yet....I continue. I ask myself, "Why?" "Why do you keep moving forward?"  ... ... ... I'm always met with silence.                         A silence that gives me no sense of solace.

Holy High-Res Imagery!

6016x4000 That is what the camera takes these images at... but the image uploader chokes on that and they're nearly all over 10 MB in size, so here are some down-sized versions! Still 3008x2000, though! I took over 500 images on my trip but I expect a number of them won't have turned out well, as I am the most amateur of photographers. If there's any interest in this pair, I'll upload more! Maybe at a lower res, so I can fit more than 2 in a post...

Fred Patten’s “What the Well-Read Furry Should Read”: October Update.

Submitted by Fred Patten, Furry’s favorite historian and reviewer. Fred’s list covers an exhaustive variety of decades worth of Furry fiction, including classics from long ago.  (It occurs to me that Watership Down has an undeniably deserved place at the top of the list, but The Wind In The Willows is overlooked!  Maybe it should be reviewed?)
