A trip into the unknown (and back)

Guess its a good time to update this little ol' blog, dontcha know? ;D

So here we are, in June, almost halfway through the year already! Where did it all go? D: Seems like it was only yesterday that I was complaining about the cold, and now I'm complaining about the hot, warm weather.

But I'll take the warm weather. Especially after having to deal with the cold again...in MAY...while I was on a little trip across the Midwest US. :B

 Last month, me and my dad went on a little road trip up to Minnesota. We went to pick up a 1954 Flxble Bus that was for sale. The bus was pretty good condition for being up in the woods for the past few years. And it still was driveable! So we figured it would be a fairly easy trip bringing it back down to N.M.

Ha ha haaaa. Wrong.

We didn't even make it out of Minnesota on the first day back. xD We broke down outside of Minneapolis/St.Paul. The bracket holding the air compressor would keep coming loose, eventually breaking and having to be welded back together. So we would get it fixed/tightened. Drive 50 miles or so and have to stop and fix it again. xD We did this over the course of 6-7 days, having to stop and fix something every few miles (fan belt, overheating, oil). We slowly made our way across Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, a snippet of Oklahoma, and Finally...back into New Mexico.

Once we got past Kansas City, the bus did fairly good. We were making good time until we got into Dodge City. The bus wasn't used to the warm weather so we had to let it cool down every few miles.

But we finally made it home. Mostly in one piece too. xD

Even though the trip back was tough, it was still worth it in the end. This is a unique bus, mostly because other models from the same year of it are different. This bus was custom made to have a higher roof. Other buses will have a lower roof and a "sunken" walkway down the middle. And it's in much better shape than other ones my dad has looked at.

Also, it's quite the attention-getter. Wherever we went, people would come and look at it, take pictures, look around in side. It was really strange. xD I know its a cool, retro looking bus, but holy cow. You think people never saw one before. Even now,  here at home, we get at least one person a day coming by to look at it. xD

So that was the magical mystery tour. The first one anyways. xD I'll probably be doing it again come July, as I plan to go to AnthroCon in Pittsburgh. :D

So, along side collecting buses, I've still been doodling here and there. Right before the trip I started working on a new character (because I just had to have another one for my collection xD). This here is Puye, a Native American horse guy. (Figured I'd make someone to annoy Aether and Sidern with :D)

 I also started working on a new little project...I now have a tumblr account! :D 

J's 505 Blog is my tumblr page, or in this case, Jamie's tumblr page. This will be a blog of my guys (mostly Jamie) taking pics of themselves in bathrooms or anywhere else they happen to find a mirror. xD  But, I plan to or want to make this a interactive experience. Sort of like those "Ask me" pages you see with characters. I also will be doing prize sketches of people's characters to post on the blog too. I'll be making another, formal announcement on FA soon, letting everything else know about it.

So I think that will do it for this post. Thanks for reading! :D

From 2006 to 2013

So, waaaaaaaaay back in 2006, I decided I really liked Growlmon from Digimon. So I drew this picture of him...and it was like the best drawing EVER. :D

(You can still see it on DA )

Now, in 2013, I looked at it again and thought "What the Buck was I thinking?" D:

So I redrew it. And now it looks a little better. : )

And you might have wondered...WHO THE BUCK ARE THESE PEOPLE? xD

Well then...

Now you know! ;D

Spring Posting

Sorry BGN hasn't been updating his blog lately. He's been busy fighting runaway urban growth these past few weeks. (Even though SimCity is full of glitches, it is kinda fun :D)

Anyways. hello loyal blog followers! xD

Once again it's time for another post detailing the strange things that go on in BGN's life. :D

To start off we have some sketches of BGN's characters...as humans?

Just today I got this great idea to do human versions for a few of my characters (Well, it seemed great to me anyways xD). This came from me trying to figure out what would be a good April 1st pic. Rather than just picking on Todex I decided to pick on everyone this year. 

If you don't know who the two are down in the bottom right corner then you need to watch more BGN xD

It was kinda tricky doing a few of them. A few of them are based on real people and it was hard trying to draw them, or get them to look like the persons they're based on (Mainly Jaq and Stanley). Hopefully they'll come out a little better when I do the full piece. 

Moving on we have some interesting gifts I've received these past few days. I've gotten everything from video games to suggestive postcards from France, to a weeks worth of free lunch coupons. xD 

Not only have I gotten gifts in the mail, I've gotten some great art gifts from folks online too!  

My birthday isn't till the end of next month but jeez. Maybe I should bake a cake and celebrate early. xD 

And that's about it for this post. :D Thanks for reading! And hopefully this will be updated again fairly soon. :B

Thanks for reading! : )

New Post (and New PC)

It's been a whole month since the last post, so I guess I should update :B

And what better way to update my blog with a post about me getting a new computer! :D

Yes sir, I bought me a new computer two weeks ago, and it got here on Saturday!---Except FedEx couldn't find my house so I had to wait till Monday, which I had to go down to the distribution center in Santa Fe to pick it up MYSELF. >:L Oh well. I got anyways. And I'm happy cuz I now have a PC that should be able to let me play SimCity when it comes out next month (I hope xD).

Now to start all over saving up money for SimCity---and AnthroCon---And ComicCon. Oh gosh. D:

2O13 Is Here...

And I'm barely getting around to updating this blog xD....

Anyways, 2O12 is over! Finally. D: Last year was one of the worst years of my life, and not just for me but for my whole family. Right up to the end, unfortunate things kept coming our way.

 Luckily, Christmas came, and it sort of helped "lighten" our spirits. Har de har har. :B

Most of the time, Xmas is stressful (running around buying gifts for everyone) and it was this year too but once it came and gone, everyone just felt a little relieved. So the year ended on a good note for us. : )

And I got some interesting gifts too. :D

*that EraseAll thing? I don't even know...

We tried quite a few different things this past year---Well. the only real different thing is BOOBIES xD BUT STILL...I think 2O12 was a very productive year. 

And we're already off to a good start for this year! This first week of January has been a busy one. So hopefully this a good sign of things to come. :) 

So, stay warm and snuggle up with your friend's crotch fuzz, and we'll see you on the next blog post! (Hoping there will be a next one anyways xD)

And have a Happy New Year too ; )
