Random J Fox - 1. Picture

A few might remember the April Fools Prank I tried to pull off on the VCL by asking folk to copy "Random J. Fox" and uploading it, claiming it to be theirs. (cont.)

Cupid.jpg
Image: Cupid.jpg   526x700 70748 bytes 2004.09.01

So, this picture comes directly from the Eurofurence X where it was up for sale.

I 'spose, this is the cutest homoerotic thing I have done in a while. I was always wondering how it might spark off between males, the most humorous answer being, that cupid either has a bad aim or a queer eye himself... I settled for the latter!

Since this is drawn with wash and inks on paper, the original is fairly wavy, perhaps the reason this didn't sell.

Inks, wash and patience.

Con visitors will recognise this as one of those famed, cooky inked posters Blue_Panther wanks out shortly before a con, mainly to advertise somekind of a weird room party: This example is this years Treecon poster, inviting folk to a Pyjama and Sketchbook party.

As you might see, I was planing on dashing it through Illustrator (the flowy typo is the give away here), however I ran out of time to work on it. Thus the fairly rudimental typo and layout remained.

Tiger-Bathing.gif

What started off as a charming idea (as usual during a "waiting for the printer" session, developed into a drag! I was thrown in doubt on the anatomy (partially because my doodle was incorrect and was lost in the process). My initial version showed the Tiger's left arm dangling over the rim of the bath tub, nearly touching the ground... That was late 2003!

Now, 2004, I decide to let the dangling arm be, frisk it up on to the rim of the bath and add some bubbles for the touch. It comes to show that you can leave a piece for half a year and come up with a solution - eventually.

Illustrator and a lot of nerves!

My X-Mas Card for 2003. I tired to proclaim the self made and cosy aspects of the festive season. I - for one - like the preparations far more than the consuming.

Belated Entry to the VCL December 2003 Art Competition.

Remembering this years visit to Anthrocon and meeting Ch'marr, the lord of the buttons for the first time. Timid requests for a button of my own lead to a conversation thereafter...

I am dreadfully sorry I can't participate in this outrageous fad that has smitten the artistic furs right now. They have all gone bobbing and dancing off with their iPods instead of working their paws to the bone. Am I the only one around who actually uses his Apple stuff for what it was originally made for?

Running the VCL is a piece of cake... you just have to sit in the sun all day, perhaps do a bit of programming, occasionally publish a VCLPotD, eventually add some picture to your cool sketchbook collection and be alert in case a fire breaks out in the lobby, where all the artists meet and converse. Easy going life isn't it? If it weren't for all these tiresome rouge artists (like this here Blue_Panther) who occasionally draw these dreadful fanpicts of ones character!

ThailyTea.gif
Image: ThailyTea.gif   592x842 96715 bytes 2003.07.13

Posterdesign and layout (originally a commission) for Thaily Brimstone to announce a Tea Party schedulled to be held at AnthroCon 03. Themed by the English influence of the event, I took to the coat of arms, placing the lion and the unicorn in the background. Since my client likes to shock a wee bit from time to time, the poster needs to bare a certain key element to attract the viewer. Hence I chose to place the beaker and the coffeepot to avoid the obvious full monty.

In accordance with the VCL policy, the event details have been removed from this upload.

Frigde.gif

This is a classical "waitng for the printer" picture. Since I did it at work, it should be in the "@ Work" directory, however, since it's no random doodle, it doesn't quite fit in that collection...

How is something like this made? Simple:
Send a 20 page layout to the rip to be printed on the laser, wait, get bored, open Illustrator and start layering curves and squares! Define what colour to reduce to... today's pick is purple for some reason. Add signature
Voilą!

Sometime along the line I got to know the dutchfur alpha-bitch Thaily Brimstone on a few art matters. She has been shredding my work ever since, time to issue a warning to fellow artists !not! to seek contact if you want lull yourself in pleasing self-content. However, her critical stashing has indeed sparked some pictures from me... "Beware Thaily" one of the last (and given I actually started it back in January one of the longest till the upload)

This is the Nr. one of a series of VCL - Pictures, mainly playing with the name. Suggestions of possible meanings (as to be read on the forum here) range from "Very Clean Lineart" to "Voluptuous Cheetahs in Lingerie" thus giving me the phrase for this vicious cheetah in lingerie! Of course the colours used are variations of teal (#005E74) and fox-red (#DA5A36), the colours of the VCL.

Sometime this year I set off to buy a servants suit from the local theatre. I've always wanted one and seeing they were selling some costumes I dashed for it. A small victory, since I can finally call a servants overcoat my own!

This picture was the first of 2003 with my trusted brushes again. Not perfect, but I like the lines, so I'm not going to correct it!

I wasn't always on time to deliver my art work... there are multiple reasons. What better than to do a small series about it?

SilenceTheVoice.gif

In a time when those who shout get heard, an admin of a forum has to battle many illustrous opponents. Here on the VCL forum one might recall the self-acclaimed alpha-bitch of the dutchfurs biting, scratching and fighting her way through threads and posts. Though certainly not an easy lox to deal with, she occasionally surprised with indepth topics, issues and discussions (usually letting a biting second post follow) Those who cared, flew through the lines barely reading and those who hated certainly didn't even bother to do that. As an inevitable event (at least to some) after another major clash on the board the admin decided to silence that voice.

I wondered what that might actually look like without accusing or offending ... this Illustartor pic bore those results.

A series on the violent times we live in... Working in the media shows an increasing number of virtual and RL violence shaking our societies. Does this series justify or accuse violence? I don't know really, at least it makes violence a discussable topic...

100 Files

Incidentally this is my 100. upload to the VCL!
To be sure, looking back at it in a few days or a few years this count will certainly no longer be correct... However I saw the famous "Blue_Panther 99 Files" in the artist listings and decided to reflect about the past year...

Peggy's Fridge Art rant left an everlasting impression on me...
So... what have I uploaded... and why?
