I've just had me a pretty damn productive weekend. I wrote a couple of book reviews for 'how to' books that are currently out for artists. The first one can be found here. I'll be posting more once I've had time to clean them up a bit.

Next, we have the deviantart.com side of things. I started playing with the 'collections' option and created a collection for tutorials that I thought were worthwhile. There are a million tutorials out there for artists, but without some human going through them all and filtering out... well... the crap, you could spend a lot of time and never get anywhere. If you have a tutorial on Deviantart (or hell - anywhere really) that you would like me to take a look at, let me know.

Lastly, there's the personal projects element of this weekend. I came up with another idea that I'm not quite going to reveal yet, but the art linked here is the finished line work for one of the images from that project. (Sorry if that doesn't make much sense.) Click the thumbnail to see the full (non-head cutty-off-y) version.

I was thinking about doing some t-shirt designs. Mostly, I'm probably going to stick with my forte - tribal designs and the like. However, I have some pretty damn clever friends, so I thought that I would put the word out:

If any of you have an idea for a funny (or serious for that matter) shirt - let me know. If I like the idea, and I put it on a shirt, I'll (at least) buy one of the shirts for you, and you can brag to all of your friends that you came up with the idea!
