well, 10,018 as I write... two years and five countries and one circumnavigation later, thanks to dA my stuff has been seen by ten thousand (plus) viewers, which I find terribly gratifying. Ironically, the 10,oooth viewer didnt leave a message, so the custom art thing goes to #10,001. Haven't been posting much just lately, since I'm in the middle of a writing gig which is occupying both lobes of my brain just now, but a fresh crop of images will be coming soon.
Forward Ho!

If you turn out to be my 10,000th viewer, be sure to leave a comment or a note- I will be happy to do a request drawing, portrait, whatever pleases you, on color or b&W, to mark the event of my 10,000th pageview.

WOW!

Strange I suppose to find this as exciting as I do- millions have seen the shows I have worked on, but I'm just part of the rank and file of animators on those projects- but to have 10,000 pageviews of my own stuff
is a decacentric milestone for me-ok, ok so I am easily amused.
If you ARE the 10,000th viewer, be sure to leave a note somewhere- I will find some way to comemmorate the event.
cheers- Mark

That is, approaching 10,000 pageviews!!!
A milestone for the deca-centric(count the fingers) I've got less than 400 to go! Semms like I ought to do something special to mark the event-
question is, what do you do for your 10,000th viewer? Offer to do a portrait? Give them a drawing? Guess I have time to come up with something appropriate.

Mid October- Imagine my delight to be back in Hyborea watching the death of summer... yes, yes, the colors of October are lovely and such, you get to make the wool and leather fashion statement, but lets face it , its COLD, and its DARK, and getting DARKER.
And COLDER.
Fact is, the fall is a long ordeal of quiet resentment for me- usually lapsing into naked hatred when the leaves finally drop and winter kicks into high gear. As ever, I wish my Irish ancestors had been criminals, instead of merely poor and starving- then they might have been banished to Australia instead of emigrating to Canada.
