As many of you know, I think, I sell some shirts of my work on RedBubble.
Shout out and thanks to all those you bought something.

Now I added iPhone, iPod and iPad cases to some items.
So in case any of you are interested, here's the link to find them: [link]


Cheers~

Okay if there's one piece of work that I've ever made in my entire life of drawing that I regret more than anything, it would be those fucking pony hearts.
Literally every single day (since the day I made them) I get 1-10 notes or comments about someone stealing, tracing, recolouring, selling my work here or somewhere else. So naturally, I fucking hate those things. I probably would've done them a lot more if I didn't have to deal with art theft twenty times a day.

To those of you who have been informing me of these thefts from time to time, I really appreciate it as always. Without people like you I wouldn't even be able to track down, or even KNOW about the people stealing them. So really, you have my deepest thanks and gratitude.

NOW to get things straight. I'm tired of going through these art theft pictures and reading comments about how, "He gave me permission to make it a base" or "He doesn't care". WRONG, I do care and will report you without hesitation if I see it.

To make this clear YET AGAIN:

IF YOU USE OR MAKE PONY HEARTS READ THIS DAMN THING

You can make your own pony heart.
YOU MAY NOT TAKE, TRACE, RECOLOUR, OR ALTER ANY OF MINE

NO, I do not have a base for you to use. I know there's one out there with a pony heart body base and that's fine. JUST DRAW YOUR OWN MANE AND TAIL. NOT STEAL MINE.

Give credit where credit is due. Just a simple comment in the description saying, "Pony Heart Concept/Idea by "

In fact, I'm not going to scold you for missing the crediting. This is more about recolours/tracers.  

A temporary fix has solved my previous problem.

Being temporary, I should still be trying to fix the problem permanently.

Don't know what I'm talking about?

Good.

Looks like things are going to be slower than usually.
Right when I was working on the Rainbow Dash in the new style, my tablet decided to say "NOPE!" :I
Hopefully I can find a way to get a new one soon.
Especially since I had some ideas I wanted to do. -~-
I guess I'll look into that 8X6 inch MonoPrice Tablet. Seems like people like it. Plus it's not as costly so I can try to get it sooner, rather than save up for another Wacom tablet.

It also sucks that I use my tablet as a mouse for my computer all the time too. D:
I don't have a track pad, just that stupid little dot in the middle of the keyboard to move the mouse. (Damn things hurts my finger.)

In any case, please bear with the lack of work.

CLOSED
While I work on finishing the rest of the MLP FIM cast that I'm doing, I'm going to open up a few commission slots for this style.
These are only Paypal commissions.
And will be $25.
Just send me a note and I'll add you to the list. (With reference of the pony being drawn.)
It's first come, first served!

What did you people do?!

I can't even step out the door at night!
So I have to sit inside and weep at my desk, and hope my wet tears will cool me off.
Even my tablet feels hot when I put the side of my palm on it.
Someone else draw for me.

No, I'm not dead.

But starting tomorrow, I will be gone for the next two weeks. Traveling to Mexico City to see new things, and spend time with someone very special. I'm really excited for this will be my first time taking a real trip. My first time on a plane. First time out of the USA. I know it's going to be very memorable.
So I'll be spending every moment enjoying my time there, and won't have time to get online really.  

Those last few who still have commissions, I apologize but they'll have to be finished when I return. I tried to finish them the week prior, but, there were some family issues that arose.

Until then, you all take care and maybe I'll come back home.  -w-

I'll be closing commissions for a little while.
I need to catch up on everything before I start taking in more. Things have gotten slower than usual, and I'm not pleased with making people wait so long for their commissions to be done.

All commissions I have now will be my main focus.
And hopefully I can get them done in a fast enough manner.

After which I'll open up shop again.

So bear with me.

Just another reminder of my drawings that are sold on shirts and stickers. They can be found on the link above.
I'm also still trying to come up with new designs to offer, so you'll have more to choose from.

Thanks to everyone who has purchased one. It really is appreciated, especially when I hear how much you're enjoying them.
As always, I hope to keep providing items you'll be interested in wearing.

Well, maybe just in time.

So with all the fuss going about regarding my drawings on shirts and what not.
I decided to do just that.
With the help of RedBubble.com, you can find some Main Cast Contours and Hearts t-shirts.
As well as some stickers.

Now, I've never used this sight before. (And for some reason, the images look darker than the originals, and I have no clue if they print like that.)
So I don't know how well they'll come out, but I am curious.
So if you'd like to take a look, stop on by to: [link]


*If you'd like me to put up a Contour I did of your Ponysona, let me know.
I can have it up so you can buy it, then take it down.
Or keep it in there for others to buy, if that's what you want.

I've been pretty decent this year, and only have one gift in mind. Two words.
Air Swimmers.
More specifically, the shark. My little heart jumped in excitement when I first saw it.
I'll be a good boy, and promise I won't use it to scare unsuspecting people in my house, neighborhood, or other people's houses.
I'll even bake you extra cookies. Of course, they may be poorly baked.

If you don't know what that is: [link]

Sincerely,
BambooDog


... Anyhoo.
The holidays always have me curious what other people are doing.
Got any big plans? Or maybe you have a gift you really hope you get?

So I decided when I get back to town, I'm going to add some new commissions.
To those of you still waiting for some, I do apologize. It's been a busy and distracting few months.
Even so, I shouldn't be taking this long. So when I get back, I'm going to focus on getting those done.

Even though I've had/having many... many issues involving the pony hearts. I've decided I'm going to start taking commissions on those, if anyone was interested.
I'll have that info up on my profile, along with the info for other commissions.

If you have any questions, ask away.
Will I answer? Maybe.
Am I kidding? Maybe.

So there's a meetup in Montebello. [link]
Did I already say that?

Anyhoo, it's on Oct. 29.
I don't know much about it, but I did want to go.
Unfortunately however, I won't have a car that day. SO if any of you bronies out there happen to go, let me know how it was.
I'm curious what will go on.
And maybe next time I will be able to attend.

There was a Food Truck Fest over in Ontario today, so I decided to go.
So many good things to eat, here's some of what I had:

All really good.
I don't know if any of you watch Cupcake Wars, but that last picture is from a winning contestant Suite 106. Soooo good.
Also the lady who won took a picture of me and my brother after we bought our cupcakes. I don't know if it'll be on the site.
But I kinda was excited to meet her. XD
It was interesting to try so many different things from different trucks. Some had some memorable names. XD
I would explain more, but I'm exhausted now.
But I want to do it again.

My friend is making me go out of town again tomorrow, but this time I'm not really sure for how long.
So commissions and such will be a little slower than usually. I'll still be submitting some and getting online every so often.
Hopefully you all don't mind being a little more patient than usual.
And hopefully this time if things get troublesome, she'll let me leave.

How many of you are sick of Pony Contours? XD

I'm not saying I am, but with the amount that I have done I was wondering if you are all kinda tired of seeing the same things over and over again.
I won't completely stop doing them, but should I move on to another type of Commission?
Like these for example: [link]
Which would price at $20

Of course those would take a little longer, so I wouldn't be submiting them as often as I do Contours.
I also would probably only do a certain amount every few weeks, that way I can work on other MLP artwork.

Normally I would just put commissions out there without really needing opinions.
But seeing as how I need money... I want to make sure I give you all what you want. XD
So what do you all think?

I'm back from out of town now. I originally only planned to stay three days, but ended up staying a week. (Don't ask how it was)

Anyhoo, those of you with commissions and trades,  I will get your work done.
My apologies for the longer wait.

Actually, I'm just going to Victorville. Sadly not Equestria...

This is just to inform those with commissions and trades that I'll be out of town starting tomorrow, for a few days. (For sure this time!)
So you're drawings may be a little late.
But don't worry, they will get done. *nods*

On another note, whatcha know 'bout sugar comas? 8D

So I needed to make a new Journal to get the other one out of the way.

Also I thought I could discuss why I started to whole Pony Contour thing. (Yes, I'm wasting time right now!)
Of course I did a similar style to Dash of Rainbow, Flowing Rainbow, and Flowery Flutter, but the whole reason I continued doing them was simple. I saw a lot of cool Ponysonas/OCs out there, and I thought they deserve the spot light once and awhile too. So I started the Pony Contours to do just that.
Instead of just drawing a normal picture of them, I decided to make something that would stand out. Something that would make them look like the stars of the show, without involving anything from the show.
I know there are some out there who don't look kindly to the whole Ponysona/OC idea, but I think these are something everyone could enjoy.
I've been curious, as always,  as to what everyone has been doing with theirs. I've heard talk about getting it as a tattoo, and I know it's just talk, but that would be so amazing. XD

I guess the only downside is that I haven't been drawing any of the main cast lately. (Goodbye Drawfriend. D: )
And I know some of you have been missing out on a certain series, but I'll get back to those drawings... someday. XD

But for now, I want to thank all of you who have bought these commission, or even those who won the contests. I thank you for allowing me draw your creations.

*bows*
Thank You.

So some of you may be familiar with these two drawings:

PART I: FINISHED

How To Win One:

So if you would like to have your ponysona drawn in this style leave any type of comment here, along with a reference of your ponysona. That's basically it. Then tomorrow *AFTERNOON (changed) I will randomly choose two people.
How will I randomly pick? I don't know... maybe write all the names down on little papers, crumble them up, and see which two the cat plays with first? Who knows.
You won't know you won until I submit the drawing. I'll of course note you as well.

I may not do much in the Brony Community, but I can still give you guys some Brony art once in a while. XD


PART II: FINISHED

Are you all up for more chances to win one?
This time around I'm not going to make it a random drawing, I'm going to choose myself. Also, this time there is a humorous challenge.

How To Win One:

Have your ponysona write a letter to Princess Celestia! Then put that letter in the comments here.
The letter can be about anything, this contest, your ponysona complaining, or even a love letter. Just make it interesting.
The letters that catch my attention the most will win. Plus I might have just one winner, or maybe five. It depends on how many I choose!
So more chances to win!



~~  So I've picked the winners. You guys really wrote some great letters, I'm impressed. (Although there were two of you I expected to enter... but never did.)
But I have to be fair, the 22nd is over now.

Quite a few made me laugh. Then there were some that were like short stories on their own!
But as much as I liked them, I could only pick a three. I actually wanted to do more, but if I keep doing that I wouldn't finish anything else...
I picked one that stood out to me the most, one that made a meaningful statement, and one that just made me laugh.

Winners will be revealed when I submit the drawings. You know I like to keep you guys in the dark.


On another note: Don't forget the MLP T-shirt contest has started voting! Go and vote for your favorites!
(The site likes to be down a lot though. :/)
