RttE: Season Four Microreview (part 1. The Pros!)

So, season four is finally out! I'm sure most of you who have Netflix have already seen it, and I've logged back into the HTTYD world in order to actually finally write something on my blog! I'm going to be honest in all my opinions about this season, but they really are just my opinions, and I', totally open to discussion. Click the read more to see the review.

Season four of RTTE is out now!

Ok, I have now finished watching the newest season! I did enjoy it, and I am considering doing another micro review of the entire season like what I did for season three. Here's the catch... I will be completely honest if I do make a review... and my opinion on certain developments may not match up with the vast majority of people who are enjoying the show. I don't want to come across as a hater or anything, but if you guys are interested in a review, please just pop me a comment to let me know :)

In other news, the reason I am so infrequent in my blog posts is because I am working (as a pizza delivery driver) and trying to finish up my last semester of college. I'm almost done! Man, delivering pizza would be so much more fun with a Night Fury...

I have also been strongly considering writing a completely original story. Not fan fiction, no borrowed characters, everything coming 100% from my own brain. It's pretty daunting, but I thought I'd toss the idea out to you guys. Haha, who knows... maybe one day I could actually get published and paid for writing stories! That would be nice.

Anyway, I'm going back and looking over the episodes now so as to get a good feel for them. Hope you all are having dragon-y good times :)

A Comprehensive Guide To Dragons: Entry 1

I have decided to use one of my Christmas journals for an art project. This book will now be called "A Comprehensive Guide To Dragons" (aCGtD for short), and I am going to be hopefully doing quite a lot of dragon sketches inside of it. I've already finished my first entry, so I am going to post images of the pages here on the blog. I hope you'll enjoy this new stream of posts/art that I'll be attempting to do.

To quote Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes: Check out my "Loot"!

I had a really lovely Christmas, and a lot of kind people gave me some really great gifts! I'm going to post pictures of the more nerdy ones here on my blog, and I'll also be posting a lot of thank you's. So, if you'd like to see what I got, click the "read more"

Blaze Forward (Happy Birthday Inhonoredglory!)

Happy Birthday Inhonoredglory! I managed to get some painting done during my winter holiday, and I wanted to make you a gift. I knew I wanted it to involve Hiccup pretty heavily, but I also wanted to try my hand at a really dark, dramatic sort of lighting. I really liked the orange fire glow that I managed to pull of in the "Sleepy Companions" art piece I did a while back, so I tried to sort of replicate that here. It turned out a lot darker than that one, but I still like the result. I hope you enjoy it. I'm going to attach some versions of the painting bellow that are text free incase you or any of my other readers would like to use those versions of it.

Happy Snoggletog!

Hey guys! Happy Snoggletog! I hope you are all having a wonderful holiday. I have had a great Christmas, and I will probably post about the gifts I've been given sometime tomorrow or the next day. Anyway, I actually went out of my way and finished a small digital painting for the holiday. It's been so long since I've gotten to paint! It was a lot of fun to get back into it. If you would like to get the above image without the text, I'm going to attach it below.

Well this is unfortunate...

It seems that HTTYD3 has been pushed back to March 1, 2019. This is somewhat unfortunate because I was getting pretty excited what with feeling like we were half way there. However, some plot details have been made clear, and I do think the film is going in the right direction, so that is a relief! What do you guys think of the push back?
