Issues with jewelry

Cheddar the Imp! *drawn on my package, hur hur)

Tried wearing a bracelet at work.
That idea failed as soon as I got hold of the mouse.

I don't have chain bracelets.

I do need to redesign the Taco necklace; that damn centerpiece issue is bothering me.

And finally... I caved in and bought some nail decals. Flowers and butterflies with shiny stones.

Whaaaaa.... if I don't like the feel of them on my nails, I can use the rest on future pictures.

My coworker is going to attempt to find all the files in the SRC folder emplacement by going for extensions... so I wrote him a list of the extensions to look for.. tomorrow I'm bringing him the brand spankin' new external drive I bought so he can try to transfer the files.

If I had a first born I'd owe it to him right now.

I'm guessing I'm either gonna get Digital Taco back on Friday or next week. Hold on a bit more, folks!

OOZING with HAPPINESS

Cabrito, the Dwimp! (Not to be confused with Marzipan who is a lot more Impish than Dwarvish)

AAAaaaaaahhhh...
It's been hectic when you consider your first day at work in a week as a VACATION.

GAWD I LOVE my job!

Boss even faked complaining, saying I hadda stop working so fast!

So I just sat down and folded my arms. "Okay." *doesn't move*

Boss:"Hey hey hey woah, no, I didn't mean it!"

As far as I know, all the returns I hadda process are processed, 2 are mailed, 4 or 5 are awaiting an answer from the depots...
All the paperwork is stapled and neatly placed with their corresponding item and if I come back tomorrow and see my pile upset, heads will roll!

Now my coworker has my tower and he's gonna attempt to retrieve The Folder To Rule Them All. 80% chance of success, I hope the odds are in my favor, that folder is uber important! (Hell-O Henching and Provenance PSD pages, anyone?)
If he can't, oh well, re-scanning and re-wording EVERYTHING it is, then. I'm not afraid of a little work.
At LEAST I still have the original lineart and corresponding scenario of both series safely tucked in their own real life folder.

Also, Animal Crossing City Folk is back up to date. I plan on landscaping next Saturday. I got Black tulips for Taco's house and my personal garden is literally overrun with blue Pansies. I think I'll put those around the Museum.
I already put the purple pansies around the Able sisters' shop, got various tulips around Nook's, maybe I should move the Carnations to Bell's house...

And see what I can do about that large deserted spot in front of Nook's place.

I'm almost halfway to my goal for my windmill, too!

Yee!

6 taco-club galleries finished, ah-ah-ah...

Yup! 6 tacophiles have allowed me to swap and arrange their galleries the right way, I'm making good progress!

(art, not pictures)

and

!

I got the desktop on the kitchen table, ready to be given to my coworker, my gift cards in my pocket...

Whether he finds The Folder To Rule Them All or not, I'll get to upload new stuff when he gives the pc back, so hold on just a little more!

I am SO behind on christmas gifts it's not funny.

Despite my digestive issues I'm in a pretty good mood, I go back to work tomorrow!

I'm also gonna bring my desktop to my coworker (gotta leave a bit earlier so I don't rush with a big box in my hands) and get that external hard drive.
Got 2 more sketches in my hatena channel, and boy do I suck at cars, oi!

Nothing practice can't cure!

I've been applying the first rule of Doug Chiang's book and it's working: do sketches on small surfaces to get a good idea of the important shapes.

Since I don't want a folder full of post-it notes that might accidentally get lost as I go, I decided to go digital and use my Hatena Flipnote software: the DSi screen is about the size of a Post-It.

My Flipnote Channel

Everything is scribbled, no sketchlines, the sketchlines are what build the robots.

I plan to do the same with cars next, another thing I struggle with.

Eventually once I grasp the basics, I'll try going for bigger paper and more detail.

Then maybe digital coloring. I may not have photoshop but heck, any software'll do, no?

I asked in the Taco club, but I'm asking here too:

PLEASE, I'm asking EVERY member of the Taco-club to go to the club and re-submit ANYTHING Gaellic (Taco) Impish they have done! EVERYTHING!
I'll take care of deleting duplicates (labeled "by Taco-club") and putting stuff in their respective gallery; I intend to remove the middle man and linking the arts directly, like a good group account does.

No middleman = No "fake" faves = More exposure to the original artist.

Help me Help you, fans of the egotistical Imp!

On a side note, I'm getting something custom made for me, I'll show you guys when it's done!
