Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Callibrate your Wacom tutorialHad you finally made the transition from intuos 3 to intuos 4?, or Are you rich to change into an intuos 5? Had you made the transition from a first generation cintiq to the new ones?. More levels of pressure will mean more quality to the paintings, am i right?.
Did you thought that by default the pen will it be like using butter on bread?, you try it for the first time and you love all of it, you said i have sooooooo much control on my strokes im having a blast. Then only to realize you only have total control of the brush but when you are moving it really slow?. But when you do quick strokes the pressure drops a lot of paint making you redraw tons of stuff?
Did you ever thought that painter its hard to handle with new tablet? Too much pressure? If it has more pressure why i cant control more easier the beggining of the stroke which is more crucial?.
Have you ever open the customize option in wacom settings, only to feel dumb and no

It's been a looong couple of years...

Well my Grandpa died today, well I suppose it was yesterday.

He's in the left corner

I remember when I was little, before I could read I typed out a whole page of random letters and he read it off to me like it was a real story.
I remember how he would always wink at me, how he would bend over on the couch, just so he could see me and get my attention and wink

No matter how old I got.
I remember how he played Clue with me after I found out my Grandpa Harold died.
I remember every telephone call he spoke so softy I couldn't hear him and how, because I speak so softly too he probably had the same problem with me.
I remember how he always asked me to draw a picture of him and I kept refusing (because I'm not good at drawing real people) but I'm so glad I finally did a few Christmas' ago.
I remember how everyone would tell me I was his favorite.
He had a really unique smile...

He was a really good guy, and I'm going to miss him, already do but he didn't deserve to live the way he had the last few years. He was really sick and weak for a long time and whatever you believe about what happens after life, I imagine it's better than how he has been for awhile now.

I'm really not asking for sympathy, I was fortunate I got to visit a few weeks ago, he was a wonderful Grandpa, he lived a good life and I can only hope I'd be so lucky to live that long surrounded by people that I love!

I lost my Grandpa-in-law earlier this year, he was a good guy too. He would always tease me and whenever Tyson would leave the room he would ask "Why do you like him so much? Isn't he annoying?" I thought that was so funny, he was worried when I went to visit my family because he wasn't sure if anyone would tease me, I assured him that's one of my families hobbies and he was satisfied.

I remember how he would always ask Tyson to steal his Dad's hats for him, and I remember how I found his wedding ring out in the bushes when it had been lost for months!

I am seriously running out of Grandparents, but I was lucky enough to have pretty great ones!

I just wanted to show them off a little bit and try to spread their memory any little way I know how!

Geez. Lost my first Grandpa last year.... so I sympathize with you. We got to see him on life-support the day before they pulled the plug. He was incredibly sweet... but mostly the reclusive genius type. He loved everything that involved some sort of engineering or in-depth skill... like welding and house building.

Sorry this reply is rather late. I don't check journal listings as often as I ought to. D:

~JessicaElephant Aug 27, 2010 Hobbyist

No problem I don't check journals as often anymore since they changed the message system, or messages which is why I'm responding so late

Thank you and I'm sorry your Grandpa passed as well. The worst part of growing up is all the mentor figures in our life pass on,then we somehow become them to someone else. My biggest problem with life is it's always going, you never really get to stop and reflect on things because something else has happened before you get the chance... Is that a weird thing to say? I hope it wasn't too confusing I have trouble expressing what I mean clearly.

=TheThirdRLM Aug 10, 2010 Professional Traditional Artist

I know you're not asking for sympathy, but still, I am sorry to hear of your loss. It's never really easy to lose someone.

~JessicaElephant Aug 10, 2010 Hobbyist

Thank you so much

I don't feel so much as something was taken away from me like when my other grandparents died, their deaths were such a shock. I don't really know how to describe it, I feel like he's been working hard for years and now he's finally on a well deserved vacation or something. Obviously I'm sad but sort of happy he doesn't have to suffer anymore...

=TheThirdRLM Aug 11, 2010 Professional Traditional Artist

That's an understandable feeling. Anyone who has watched a family member suffer in some way for a long time is glad to see them move on to some much deserved peace. It's not necessarily any easier to let go, but you can at least take solace in knowing he is finally resting.

!flourchyld Aug 10, 2010 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I'm sorry for your loss. I've never lost a close family member so it's hard for me to know what you're going through. But I know I would feel so lost if I lost my grandpa, and he hasn't spoken to me since I was a kid, because he has Parkinson's. When we did talk, I remember I got mad at him a lot because he was pretty strict. But he killed a snake once! When my sister and I were swinging in their front yard. My sister saw the snake, screamed, and my grandpa ran out, grabbed a hoe, and chopped that thing UP.
It was pretty awesome, actually XD
Your grandpa sounds like the perfect grandpa to me! So sweet and kind. I've always wanted a grandpa like that.

~JessicaElephant Aug 10, 2010 Hobbyist

Thank you

Your grandpa sounds like the stories my grandpa would tell of his dad, he once told me his Dad just told wasps to go away or something and they just flew off, Haha. I can't vouch if that's true or not

I've been very lucky to have really great Grandpas!
