The Massacre
I watched the individual struggling on the table. Flip Flop, it jumped around as it tried to fly off the table. Slam! I gave a devastating blow with my knife's handle. My knife was like a hammer crashing into a nail. My hands were covered in blood as I watched its last living moments. "Let's get this over with" I said in a nervous voice. The body lay before us.
"Cut off its head" said Paul, my mentor.
Slice! My knife cut through the creature's body and the head was cleanly cut off. Splat! Blood spewed everywhere. Paul took out his knife. I watched in disgust as he showed me how to perform the next stage of our diabolic plan

05/03/11--10:56: Macbook Pro, DSLR Camera, or Photoshop CS5? (chan 2079518)




Check out my Polls. I have am having trouble on deciding what I should do. Your Feedback is very appreciated. :aww: http://xcpizzapops.deviantart.com/journal/poll/1991129/

What should I buy first?
- Macbook Pro (costs 1,500+ dollars)
- DSLR Camera (costs 1,000 dollars)
- Photoshop CS5 (costs 1,000 dollars)

Reason for wanting a Macbook:
I need a computer for school and have used Windows in the past and hate it, so I thought I may try getting a Mac. I also heard that Macs are better for photography, website development, graphic design, animation, and such.

Reason for wanting a DSLR Camera:
I only have a point and shoot camera and

New Automotive Series COMING SOON!

I went to a car show recently and will be uploading about 20 new deviations soon. So hold onto your seats.

Please give me ideas of what to photograph next! I don't travel too much, but when I do, I try to get as many photos as possible. I'll be going on another fishing trip soon, so maybe I'll get a few decent shots from that.

Good News! I have 2000 points, but I'm not quite sure what to do with them. :D

Thanks for all your support! :heart: I'm pleased to announce I reached 15,000 pageviews and 100 watchers. :dance:

07/11/11--14:48: Questions! (chan 2079518)




I've been pondering on a few questions that I'd appreciate feedback and response to.

Questions! and More Questions!
"What are the more successful methods of advertising artwork on deviant art?"
I try commenting and favouriting styles of art similar to my own and yet I still get a little depressed looking at their turn out and level of success compared to my own.
"How come some artists seem to receive positive acknowledge for their artwork and other artists' don't?"
I often see 2 pieces of art that in my opinion are both beautiful, but one would receive hundreds of favourites and the other doesn't. Is there something special the one ar


08/13/11--00:20: New Camera! (chan 2079518)




Guess what everyone! I just bought a Canon T3i Rebel. :dance:

This will be my first DLSR Camera. If any of you have any tips for me. Please feel free to share your insight. As of now, I'll just be experimenting with the settings and self teaching myself.

I'm attending college soon and I'm looking forward to have new photography opportunities. Although, I may also be swamped with homework and such. I'm just excited to experience dorm life again and create new friendships.

Please check out my Features! All 6 of them have beautiful galleries and are a great inspiration to me.
