Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

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

Advice and TutorialsSo this First Advice and Tutorial Journal will be on General Anatomy and Such. The second will be up to you so please comment below in what you think the next Advice and Tutorial Journal should be on.

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

***If you are an artist and wish to make a manipulation/ drawing/ etc then sell it as a print (under 1000 copies) I allow this.
If you wish to have your finished piece featured in a magazine/bookcover. I do allow this as long as you contact me first. For book covers see link [link]

My definition of commercial use is as follows: The use of one or more of my stock images used by themselves or in an un-manipulated or slightly edited state, which are used in a way that promotes/endorses a product/company or where the unedited/airbrushed/slightly edited image or images is used for profit. This includes advertisements or anything that uses my images by themselves or in an un-manipulated state. Also, I have a limit on print run for all uses of my stock. This is 1000 or more, this does not apply to most deviantartist, but if you go crazy and print more then a 1000 I do consider this commercial use.

Example: You download one of my images, print it on a t-shirt, and then sell it. That is commercial use.

For clearer details about what un-edited and slightly edited refers to click link [link]

I reserve the right to ask for compensation for use of my stock. (I normally don't, but you need to ask me first)

Hi! Sorry I am a little confused. 2 questions:

1) If I want to sell a photomanipulation for a book cover featuring your stock, am I or am I not allowed to do that?
2) What is the difference between standard and exclusive license?

*magikstock Jan 21, 2013

So sorry your comment became lost in my messages. You can use manipulations using my stock for book covers without having to purchase a license.

*TheDarkRayne Jan 22, 2013 Professional General Artist

Sucks that I got the answer when the stock isn't there anymore.

*magikstock Jan 22, 2013

do you remember what stock it was I can email it to you

*TheDarkRayne Jan 23, 2013 Professional General Artist

I'm afraid not. I usually work with authors and after they describe their characters, I look through stock images to find out what works. If something comes up and I can think of the images from your gallery that I can remember at that time, I'll let you know. You had such brilliant stock. Sad for artists they don't have access to that very useful resource anymore.

*magikstock Jan 23, 2013

Unfortunately DA is the problem. I am having trouble with the site after they changed it, and they keep telling me they are working on it but it's been months.

*TheDarkRayne Jan 27, 2013 Professional General Artist

That sucks! I hope the problem gets sorted and we can have your awesome stock back.

Magikstock : "Please do not get over whelmed....."

Yea, too late....

*magikstock Nov 22, 2011

Unless you are interested in printing something with more then 50,000 prints. Then I just really re arranged my normal rules and added 2 or 3 lines. Nothing big. Its more so if something happens I can legally back myself up.

~Dragon-Kiss Nov 22, 2011

I was only kidding. Then again… you do have the second longest set of rules I have seen in DA. Keep up the good work!
