An Artist has passed away...

Calvin "Cman" Washington was struck by a drunken motorist while riding home from the local library in November and he left this world in early December.

You can find proof of that here among a few other places that list the accident.

Cman, Calvin, was a quite prolific and talented African American artist. He did buoyant, lively, and masculine erotic work. In many ways he was fearless. He ran a few blogs dedicated to his work and was the official artist for the Woofytales books.

You can find his DA account here: http://cmanart1.deviantart.com/

One of his blogs is here: http://cmanart.blogspot.com/

I just found this out this morning and sadly I never would have known. Calvin is someone I befriended online. He was warm and affable and so free with himself and his creative vision that I was always inspired by him. He is the second person I've known to have been murdered by a drunk driver (the first was my beloved cousin). I don't know how to feel about this. I never would have known he'd died because of how the internet keeps us all apart. In fact, I'd been thinking about him the other day and wondering why he hadn't posted anything lately. My heart breaks over his loss. We needed people like him in the wold, and now he's gone.

Rest easy, Mr. Washington. You will be missed dearly.

More game sketches

More game sketches.

This time showing two more allies and one…enemy, I guess.

Lady Dilber is NOT the villain or an enemy and you won’t be fighting her so…yeah. She’s just a different kind of woman. She’s more like Ebenezer in terms of world view - just as Bella is more like Fred in HER world view. Fan, of course, is Ebenezer’s sister and one of the few people who genuinely cares about. Don’t worry - she will NOT be playing the Damsel in Distress (even though she is lost in the castle with the rest of your allies.)

Havisham was Ebenezer’s governess and first lover. Without explanation, and a long absense, Ebenezer finds her in the castle aged FAR beyond what she should be. What happened to her? True, she betrayed him and joined the rebels but…this?

I’m sketching out the most important characters FIRST so I can feel my way through things. I’m taking a different tact this time than what I’ve done before. Big broad steps and then I run in and do detailing detailing detailing on that SECTION. That CHUNK. So that I don’t get overwhelmed or lose focus like I have many times before.

The mapping is done. The music has been chosen. There’s a general outline to what occurs.
I’m further along NOW than I have EVER been in a game project. I’ve been playing close attention to my intuition (and trusted friends) for guidance here. It’s exciting!

VOTED!!!!

I voted early today! So HAPPY! I have that warm golden tingly sensation you get from voting, too.
Love that feeling.

Burrito Bison - Calle de dos vias

Before I did the previous Burrito Bison pic I was lying in bed and listening to music and I got inspired by the song. I actually finished the strip sometime last week, but I'm posting it now.

And, no, no sexy time. But if you want to hear the actual song here's a link:

(I'm not sure many people will remember this song at all. My mom used to play it when I was very young, and it came out when she was a teenager.)

Burrito Bison Rampage!

I loved this game! Haven't played it in a while but it was so totally awesome. 

This image was actually FEATURED on the Rule34 website. I was SO excited! 

Thank goodness Beachfox introduced me to the game and prompted me to do this image!
