So the Xbox 360 has this game in Japan called Dream Club C.  It has you going to a hostess bar where you spend all your hard earned money on the attractive ladies serving drinks in the hopes of finding true love.  There’s lots of girls to chose from.  Pretty much anything to suit your fancy… including  a wide variety of hair colours.

The game did well enough to gain a sequel.  Well… um… prequel I guess.  Anyway, during game play you’ll have to play mini games like karaoke and answering the girls questions in favorably way in order to win their favor, in this one you’ll have the option to feed the girls food, like a banana.

Sounds cute and fun right?  Well, that’s not the only thing you can feed them… ^_^

So a few weeks ago I put out a call for the new all digital commissions that I’ll be doing as a test.  It seems to go pretty well.  Things got done quickly and easily and the commissioner received three web versions of the image above.  Three print sized versions where also sent out and the PSD will be sent too as soon as I find a way to send it.  It’s friggin huge, but it does have the rough drawings and the paint layers.

Yay!  This made me quite happy.  I was able to deliver art faster and more content at the same price then I had been before ($30).  It’s a win, win.  It would seem that just taking on one at a time is the winning number.

Last time the call went out at DeviantArt.  Next time it will be in a different location like my blog, Fur Affinity, who knows.  Just letting everyone have opportunities to take part in the commissions.

This past weekend I took my kids to the Santa Claus parade in my town.  I walked away wondering where the heck Christmas went.  During the parade I saw a whole troop of Star Wars cosplayers (stormtroopers, Luke, Vader, sand people, even some Death Star beam operators), Gene Simmons “The Demon” (yeah, the whole KISS costume), Ecto-1, The Blues Brothers, goth chicks doing fire tricks and some heavy metal band playing rock tunes on a float.  o_O

These are the parade memories my kids are going to have.  Where are the elves?  Where’s the reindeer? Geez!

At least there was a Santa Claus at the end.

According to DeviantArt’s birthday service, Miu’s Birthday is today.  Since he’s one of my favorite artists and I just adore his work, I decided to do up a fan picture for him. I’ve actually been wanting to make fan art of Peaches, Cream and the crew , but I just haven’t been able to get around to it yet.  This seemed to be the perfect opportunity.

Yay!  Happy Birthday Miu!  I hope you’re doing well and you have a great day.  Also, thanks for all the great art you’ve put out over the years!  You rock! ^_^
