Logically Illogical

Also, this is something I’ve been wanting to point out:  If you ask me questions non-anonymously, you’ll get your questions answered faster, because I can reply privately and not clog up this tumblr with just answers.  Also keep in mind that I never answer replies.  So if you have a question, PLEASE send it in as an ask, and not as a post reply.  Thank you.

1. Under a circumstance I’d… rather not talk about. I’ve been getting a lot of questions on this particular subject, so let me reiterate what I’ve mentioned a while back: I’m going to ignore any questions on this subject and other personal things like this.  This Tumblr account is meant to be a place where I can post my doodles for people to enjoy, not a place for me to talk about my personal life.  I do not feel comfortable disclosing things like these in public.

2. I used ka-blam.com.  They do short run prints (meaning small amount), and they’re the cheapest I can find out there.  Quality is so-so and the turnaround is rather slow, but you get what you pay for.  If you want speedy and good quality, racomicsdirect.com is slightly pricier, but again, you get what you pay for.  They’re more than willing to work with you on customizing the look of your book, paper types, etc, while ka-blam has one type of spec and they’re not very flexible about changing.

3. No problem.  I’m happy to help out.  The journey in the art world is difficult enough as it is, and what little amount of knowledge I have can help make it easier for people, I’d be glad to share it.  I know I myself have had a lot of help from a lot of very nice, very talented people, so it’s just a way to complete the circle, really.

(when I left you, I was but the learner, but now I am the master)

4. Uh, large brush and… paint?  Haha, sorry mate, but that’s waaay out of my expertise.  I work with pens, pencils, markers, or digitally.  I have no experiences in creating a mural or a wall painting.  You might have a better chance going to a local art store and asking them if they have any materials to create a wall painting, or if they know where to direct you.  (pretty sure you’ll need those rollers they sell at home depot)

5. On the subject of ducks, let me leave you with my favorite paragraph from Douglas Adams’ Life, the Universe, and Everything:

The party and the Krikkit warship looked, in their writhings, a little like two ducks, one of which is trying to make a third duck inside the second duck, while the second duck is trying very hard to explain that it doesn’t feel ready for a third duck right now, is uncertain that it would want any putative third duck to be made by this particular first duck anyway, and certainly not while it, the second duck, was busy flying.
