ElForto Adventures

[Shade]

So I got back into the game... and that means I got back into drawing silly pictures.

Updated every Sunday! (I hope)

It's cold outside. Let us in.
Updating from scratch is a painful process (though not as bad as I had originally anticipated).

Promyvion is an ominous place. I suppose that is the intention.
Jay and I both came back at the same time, so we're roughly in the same place in terms of "old content we haven't finished yet". Went through all the Promys doing "Shadows of the Departed", and felt the need to do a bit of a landscape.

Nice job really like your backgrounds.

Still on Gilgamesh?

Still on Gilgamesh?

Yar. Lots of people I know still play there.

[Viena]

Yay! I really enjoyed following your little stories back then. Nice to see there'll be more, Seyonne.

...Mortimer!

I absolutely loved your comics back in the day. I look back at them and remember where I was in FFXI, and who I was playing with. It's really nostalgic, but not the "I'm sad looking back" nostalgia. Your art really inspired me to enjoy the more adventurer side of FFXI, where you'd act like a total noob for the hell of it. I'm REALLY glad you're back and creating more memories for me (and yourself!) :D

Glad to see this is back, always enjoyed them as did my whole LS. Mostly because of the Galka abuse -_-;

[Kaelia]

Welcome back to Gilga. Nice to see some old school people wandering around from time to time. I seem to remember you helping me with my WHM AF body fight back when I was a wee noob. :D Enjoy your stay. Again!

[Dathus]

Yay Shade! Welcome back to the game fellow Canadian! ^^ Always great to see a fellow DRG around again.

[Gunitsoldier]

Very nice, I like it alot.

Viena- Mortimer! I reactivated my mules for Mog Bonanza, and found a Bibiki Slug still in there. Poor thing must be all dried out by now.

AkashiXI- Aw, thanks. And yeah... getting leet gears is awesome and all, but my fondest memories usually don't have much to do with that kind of thing. Hehe.

Gamez- Hey! There wasn't -that- much.... *stops and takes inventory* Okay, maybe there was SOME galka abuse...

Kaelia- Thanks! I think I remember that too- vaguely. :]

Dathus- Thanks! Woo for Canadians and Dragoons.

Gunitsoldier- Thanks much.


Zoom.

Jayamiko and I both like Lycopodiums... for different reasons.

They are so squishy... I cannot resist!

Definitely enjoy your style a lot. Glad to see more of these as well.

[Shenrien]

I enjoy seeing a new one posted :D I think I may use one as a desktop wallpaper at work seeing how everything else I've used was deemed inappropriate.

[Knightfell]

Welcome Back

Enjoyed the new comics, they were cute.

[Abandon]

The new one made me laugh, I like your style.

[Shade]

Thanks guys.

I've also been doing illustrations to go along with some of Elmer's articles at JPButton. This week it is:

KAIZEN! The Art of Efficient Levelling
So you can click on over there to read a neat and informative article and see more pictures!
Elmer asked me for simplified instruction book style illustrations... which was hard to wrap my head around, at first, but once I got going, was very fun. I really like how these turned out.
