Complicated picture... I guess...

           New picture. And it needs explaining. The son of the atom thing is based on the premise that occured in the Amazing Spider-Man reboot in the early 2000's where an interesting idea was brought up by comic-book author Michael J. Straczynski that Spider-Man might be a nuclear powered super-hero, calling him the son of the atom. So, since then I have always associated that saying with atomic stuff. So, that's that. Now the actual character. The idea is an amalgam, basing it off of two ideas. The gray skin, is supposed to be a metal shell of a robot, referencing the ever classic JLA No.13. The idea of a shell holding in living radiation is from Captain Atom. The idea is that he was blasted, his shell was broken and his cracks are leaking radiation.



          I have also found an amazing game online. It's called Infinite Crisis a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena.
I am terrible at it, but it is possibly the best video game I've played in a year. You can play as different versions of famous DC characters like Green Lantern or Wonder Woman, like Atomic, Mecha, and Archane. It is fun, but requires a PC. Finally an upside to having one of these things. My account name is Dazzling-General, level 8. And you never have to stick with one character, you can choose different ones each match. And, overall, a pretty nice community.

          So, that has been my past week.

This is awesome.

And it is. A couple of weeks ago, I took a commission for a classmate, and today, I fulfilled
it. Of course, now I have to find a piece of paper big enough to print it on, but I can solve that issue later. Anyways, I made this in about 2 and a half hours, no breaks. Enjoy and marvel at my best picture yet.

Stuff.

Okay, it's been about two months now. Maybe even more, now that it's December. So, I have had things going on, and most of them, surprisingly, do not involve school. Their is a webcomic out there called JL8. I am pretty sure I have already talked about it but it often is a highlight of my week. But anyways, he sometimes publishes his art on DeviantArt.com. I was already familiar with that site, for I had spent the majority of my summer looking at stuff on there. It is a great site for beginning artists, with tons of great art. So, a couple of months ago I created an account. It's free, and you can publish your own art, join groups, and just socialize. It, overall, is a pretty great community, I can regularly comment and correspond with other artists and creators on the site. I have started to publish my own art, and its pretty great. I currently have no way to create art online, so I am scrounging around for unused and used art to publish.
I have also become a fan of Linkara, an internet comic book reviewer who is pretty great, and has a fair sense of humor. His show is AT4W(Atop The Fourth Wall)  and I recommend it. Link here. And, well that's it. Guess I really didn't need to blog today, but I am free time, and I'm in a pretty great mood. Oh, and I have seen the new Arrow episode that features my favorite Flash, Barry Allen, and I wasn't impressed. It felt like the producer's couldn't decide on who Barry was. He switches from being an insecure kid, to being a smarty-pants, and sometimes just acts like a blundering dolt. And they got the worst actor they could for him. The one time theirs an actual blond person, they get someone who is half ginger and looks 12 years old!
       Okay, now I'm done with this post.
