I know I said it wasn’t going to update – but then I realized that it was already mostly shaded and being a single figure wasn’t difficult fo complete.

Now, my daughter is running a nice high temperature and I’m pretty sure I’m going to be running all over town taking her to doctors today. So you got today’s update, but next week’s is looking iffy if this takes a long time.

By the way, why not think of some captions for this? Along the Got Milk lines. I thought of: Don’t cry over spilt milk, jump in! as a good one. That’s a caption for a notebook cover version.

Now you too can own a PURE Horse, just like Esil! At least if you play in Second Life you can. Only Second Life items listed in this blog are officially sanctioned by me and only one person has permission to make things. You can pick up your horse today in a variety of colors!

No updates next week – due to the following that occurred over the weekend.

I was a bit caught up in the whole, What is wrong with my computer, it won’t turn on! panic.  A lot of time was spent on that, getting HP to connect my account to my replacement plan (I had a two year one just in case of such a situation.)  I got the tablet sent off yesterday afternoon and it’ll be in their hands tomorrow, which means on Monday they SHOULD start working on it and sometime during the following week it should come back to me … and with luck.. three Mondays from now I’ll have my tablet back.. with luck.

Now, the big issue is that the software I ink on is ON the tablet.  It came with it so I can’t install it on my desktop.  I have, btw, gone through trying to ink in Photoshop – slooow, unnatural, Flash – smooth, but clunky and  Manga Studio EX 3 – not sensitive enough to ink properly, which is apparently a common problem.  (I use Painter Essentials to ink… not even an expensive program, can get it for $40, but I intend to get the full Painter 11 at some point and nowhere around here has it for that.) Sooo, I opted to upgrade to Manga Studio EX 4 – which has improved to the ‘right’ feel for inking.  Sadly, their order form is annoying.  I wanted a physical copy AND a digital download so I could get it and use it immediately.  I ordered the physical upgrade and EXPECTED that there would be a link to a digital copy, because anytime I’ve ordered software from anywhere else, you go in and order and you get that option.

Apparently I had a 50/50 chance of getting it right. 9.9  I chose the wrong selection and have had a lovely runaround from their so called ‘support’ which ended in: Most people who order a physical copy don’t want a digital copy.

I am not pleased.

I hope they ship it in time for my next round of inking.  I tried to ink pages by hand, but I do not have the proper supplies after inking on the computer for so long.  It’s going to show in next week’s Alien Dice.
