2006-07-16 [Sebhar]: *is flattered... very much so* ^_^ Thank you, dearest!

2006-07-16 [Draymond]: Its very much different than what's pictured there...I just have to finish it thats all.

2006-07-17 [Draymond]: Muha! Tis finished YES! *evil cackle* ...were did that come from??

2006-07-17 [Draymond]: ...Now I just need to pry that digital camera of ours from my sister who is about 7,000 miles away...*ponders wild ideas of retreval*

2006-07-19 [Sebhar]: Get to Chicago... I'll meet you at O'Hare and we can fly out, pick up the camera and whatever swanky Aussie guy Bri's found to displace Thomas (or put him in his place)...

2006-07-19 [Draymond]: Allright sounds good, I'll handle the itinerary and travel plans, you might have to fund the expedition and take care of that Aussie guy...lol. ^_^...however, I think I'd be a mite jelous...

2006-07-20 [Sebhar]: If he's an agent of Bri's I'm strictly hands-off, don't worry... XP plus he'll probably be a blond, and I don't do blondes. ^_^

2006-07-20 [Draymond]: I'll steal someone's camera phone in public randomly and snap a picture of it, send it to you and return the phone...this should take about 45 seconds...60 if I ask them...lol

2006-07-20 [Sebhar]: I want pictures of what she sent you, too... *wonders about something* Oh, right, your camera is in AUSTRALIA...

2006-07-20 [Draymond]: I'm still pondering the idea that Hannah never truely wakes up from her slumbers...

2006-07-21 [Sebhar]: I do! When certain people call or are otherwise about...

2006-07-21 [Draymond]: ...hmm, I wonder just whom these certain people might be...*Has a good guess as to one...grins*...coffee certainly helps doesen't it? ^_^

2006-07-21 [Sebhar]: Coffee, yes, and Mountain Dew ^__^

2006-07-28 [Sebhar]: Mf.... BOOOOORED... *sigh* waiting for mom to get out of the shower so I can drive to Dubuque...

2006-07-28 [Draymond]: Great, just great...you could have put "bored" in your mood meter...NOW, whatcha' think of Erador so far?...think ART Hannah, ART...lol

2006-07-28 [Sebhar]: I like Erador so far ^_^ Of course, his look will be much improved when he no longer appears to have random bald spots...O.o

2006-07-28 [Draymond]: Scales by far are my nemisis right now...especially the ones that are reflective. I expect Erador to be a difficult, and testing project, but I'm confident I'll suceed as yet.

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: Naturally, I have every confidence in you as well :D

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: Thank you very much, now I have even more in you, if thats possible to have more at this point ^_^

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: "Sitting on the floor and talking till dawn, candles and confidences, trading old beliefs and humming old songs, and lowering old defenses..." <--Pippin

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: How very appropriate...^_^

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: It's a very appropriate song. J'adore.

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: J'adore? interesting term...whats it mean?

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: I love, I adore... it's French ^_^

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: lovely lovely...J'adore...

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: Yo tambien ^_^ (spanish this time)

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: No not Spanish!

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: I'll give you a hint. "Yo" means "I" and "tambien" means "also".

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: Great...I just got a rosey visit from my sis. I wish she was back in Austrailia

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: Oh dear, what sort of rosey visit?

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: A sarcastic rosey visit

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: Oh dear. Care to detail, perhaps in private message?

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: Not really

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: Righto.

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: *tips hat*

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: *winks*

2006-07-29 [Draymond]: *licks talons...* oops

2006-07-29 [Sebhar]: *twitch*

2006-07-30 [Draymond]: shhht! I tink I cikt my tomge! *blood drips...*

2006-07-30 [Sebhar]: *employs a bit of magic to heal the tongue*

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: Yay! Erador's all over scales now!

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: I figured out how to fool elftown...muha.  You take a picture thats vertical, upload it. The use some tricky (not really) formatting to rotate it! So thats the largest horizontal picture of Erador you'll ever see on elftwon...muha

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: Lovely!

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: I've fooled elftown! YAY! ^_^

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: Don't go broadcasting it, they might take it down or something.

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: psh, its the regulation pixel size and file size, I doubt that anything explicity bad would happen

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: Well still...

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: Okay I'll worry about it, but until then I'm very happy with myself...^_^

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: I'm very happy with you, too ^_^

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: What a wonderful coincidence...lol

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: I like those, they occur frequently ^_^

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: Lol, yes they do. They're a wonderful pheonomenon

2006-08-11 [Sebhar]: Phenomenal ^_^

2006-08-11 [Draymond]: Fantabulous....^_^

2006-08-12 [Sebhar]: Spectacular! ^_^

2006-08-12 [Draymond]: Supercalafragilousexpialadocious! I don't think there is a true recognised definition or spelling of that word..other than my guess up there and very very happy.

2006-08-13 [Sebhar]: I think they might spell it in the movie... O.o

2006-08-14 [Draymond]: Its my stab at the word, I like it...*hugs his spelling of it* I'll look into the DVD on subtitles perhaps.

2006-08-14 [Sebhar]: Might work, yes ^_^

2006-08-16 [Sebhar]: Oh my, Erador in colour, even incomplete, is striking!

2006-08-16 [Draymond]: ...Thank you, hes quite a beastie isn't he?

2006-08-16 [Sebhar]: Indeed ^_^

2006-08-16 [Draymond]: Quite...^_^

2006-08-16 [Sebhar]: I can't wait to see the finished product ^_^ The wall in the background of that picture is quite nice.

2006-08-16 [Draymond]: I can't wait either, I'm just abnormally tired. Lol, well of course you like the wall you goon! Its part of my house! lol

2006-08-16 [Sebhar]: Naturally ^_^

2006-08-16 [Draymond]: Lol...I do like my abode. 

2006-08-16 [Sebhar]: It's rather relaxing to spend time there, you know.

2006-08-16 [Draymond]: Its better when you spend that time with certain people though...^_^

2006-08-16 [Sebhar]: So I'd imagine ^_^

2006-08-16 [Draymond]: I say that from expirience...^_^

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: I take it they were good experiences? ^_^

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: Oh yes indeed they were...lovely company you see. ^_^

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: And your company enjoyed your company, I'm certain ^_^

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: Well I can't speak for them...but I think so...^_~

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Well I can speak for them, and they did ~_^

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: Oh thats grand...^_^ I suspected as much...

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Suspect all you want... next time she's in your company you can find out for yourself, if you prefer.

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: I'll ask her then, the next time she's in my company...^_^

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: I don't know if she's necessarily the sort of person you need to ask about such things... ^_^

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: Well I wouldn't want to guess incorrectly now would I?

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Oh certainly not... *grins*

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: ...heh heh...So the only other option is....

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Well, the way I see it, you've got two. A) guess correctly or B) get the truth straight from your company.

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: I'd take option C...JUST Kidding...You'd have to watch Rundown to understand...Option B sounds like the most logical course of action.

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Naturally ^_^

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: Indeed...well I hope I'm blessed with said company soon.

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: I hope said company is blessed with you ^_^

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: *smiles* I find that a hope of mine as well.

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Mutual hopes, now!

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: *chuckles* So much in common...

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: I know!

2006-08-17 [Draymond]: Its brilliant...I love it. 

2006-08-17 [Sebhar]: Me too ^_^

2009-12-10 [*Phoenix*]: oohhhh. Very nice!!!!!!!!!!

2009-12-10 [Draymond]: Thanks! I should get around to finishing it. ^^

2009-12-10 [*Phoenix*]: yes you should...although it's pretty awesome right now...

2010-01-17 [Silver Moon]: nice

2010-04-28 [Draymond]: Yay for new art and an all nighter! Why is it that I do this to myself? XD Inked lineart...as you can see details have been omitted (obviously). I'll be getting Photoshop (hence the reason for an inked lineart) and I can also use this image to make variations.

Body stock photo reference used for torso/arms. Legs, neck, head, tail, paws = original.

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: That's very good! :D so are you editing it on photoshop? what are your plans?

2010-04-28 [Draymond]: Most likely. But before I acquire it I'll probably do a second scan to fill in the cut off details from the scanner, and then proceed to do two versions of pencil shading.
The idea is to do multiple versions without actually tampering with the original piece.

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: can't you do that on ms paint?

That's a cool idea :)

2010-04-28 [Draymond]: I'll end up having to crop the two pieces together that way, yes. It'll be interesting, because I own a Mac. The computer downstairs is a 5 year old Dell that has recently needed its hard drive wiped and the operating system reloaded. It was giving me a time just getting a good scan, so we'll see how paint goes with tagging the rest on. 
I'll upload an update if I"m able to do that.

The idea will cause me to do more work if I do it all by traditional media. If I can do it all by digital, its a simple matter of swapping out and changing details between each version. 

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: ok :) that's great

Alright ^_^. Well, I can't wait to see how it goes

2010-04-28 [Draymond]: Any suggestions as to how to improve things? I'm a bit finicky about the right paw and perhaps some of the musculature on the legs...any suggestions?

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: It looks great to me! Though the tail looks a little ridgidy and he might need teeth to chew his food :)

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: a little bit of facial scales would look good too. like for texture

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: but that's your choice ^_^

2010-04-28 [Draymond]: LoL Teeth...ah...yes, I forgot those. XD

As far as scales go, Draygun, Erindor, and Evosias don't have them. Their hide is hybridized to provide the protection of scales both thermally and mechanically, but has all the benefits of skin (minus blemishes). LoL

2010-04-28 [The Dizzy Raven]: lol ^_^ teeth!!!

lol alright, sounds good *thumbs up* ^_^
