Oi people - think before you click!Yesterday I got spammed to hell with messages linking to different variants of this image:
They can have slightly different graphics or contain different links but the message is always basically the same - go to this page and you'll receive 20 000

.
I have to ask the question - how dim do you have to be to fall for it?
Ok let's see - we have an image hosted on a profile that is 1 day old and asks you to visit a website with a strange url with a promise of a financial reward on an another website. How do you even imagine that would work? And now, of course, people start crying that their computers got infected with malware. Which is great - every genius who fell for this obvious phishing scam deserved it. I hope your shitty computer burns and you along with it.
I know this is a no-duh for 90% of people reading it but for the sake of the rest lets revise what we all should know about online phishig. And before you go all:
No, no you can't.

Opinions are a Dangerous thing: Art StylesThis isn't about narking on anyone no, infact this is just my own muses really! You could say this is a journal for ENCOURAGEMENT! *SHINES*
I find sticking to one style restrictive if you are a beginning/moderate artist! (even professionals I might say! though I can't speak for everyone)
Having a distinctive look on how your art is done and produced is understandable and its a desire to appear unique to the point some one can just SEE your work and instantly think 'Oh! that's Ten-days!' or something along the line. However, when you are trying to find who you are and what kind of art you are to produce, I recommend trying, well, a lot of different things! Different styles, mixing styles, different colouring techinque, brushes, tools, shading. Don't feel dependant on what you are already doing and don't feel pressured by people just for trying new things!
Push out of your comfort zone. Can't draw hands? don't avoid it! draw the heck out of them! (how else are you going to learn?)

It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

What I personally find the hardest to draw is feet and hands. I found that with a lot of practice and a lot of frustrating mistakes my feet and hands actually look at the very least almost the way i want them to be.
Now my favorite Style of drawing is Anime or sometimes semi-realism, and i find that by doing studies of the more traditional style realism actually helps improve my anime pictures greatly. For instance i would practice drawing my hands and feet in different positions holding different things and from different angles. I also find it extremely helpful while i'm drawing and i'm having a particularly hard time drawing a hand or a foot in a certain position i will stop for a

Devious Journal Entry

Journals / Personal

Much of the impressive Germanic art and WWI & WWII art and images has rekindled my passion for my German roots.

Where is my family from~ Ostpreußen, Allenstein und Königsberg

What am I~ ein Junker

Thus I love the arts...and I have begun to become a patron of the artists on this site...little by little...

Deutschland über alles...

First stanza
Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,
Über alles in der Welt,
Wenn es stets zu Schutz und Trutze
Brüderlich zusammenhält.
Von der Maas bis an die Memel,
Von der Etsch bis an den Belt,
|: Deutschland, Deutschland über alles,
Über alles in der Welt!

"Germany, Germany above everything,
Above everything in the world,
When, for protection and defence, it always
takes a brotherly stand together.
From the Meuse to the Memel,
From the Adige to the Belt,
Germany, Germany above everything,
Above everything in the world!"

Second stanza
Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,
Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang
Sollen in der Welt behalten
Ihren alten schönen Klang,
Uns zu edler Tat begeistern
Unser ganzes Leben lang.
|: Deutsche Frauen, deutsche Treue,
Deutscher Wein und deutscher Sang!

"German women, German loyalty,
German wine and German song
Shall retain in the world
Their old beautiful chime
And inspire us to noble deeds
During all of our life.
|: German women, German loyalty,
German wine and German song!

"

Third stanza
(Germany's current National Anthem)
Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
Für das deutsche Vaterland!
Danach lasst uns alle streben
Brüderlich mit Herz und Hand!
Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
Sind des Glückes Unterpfand;
|: Blüh' im Glanze dieses Glückes,
Blühe, deutsches Vaterland!

"Unity and justice and freedom
For the German fatherland!
For these let us all strive
Brotherly with heart and hand!
Unity and justice and freedom
Are the pledge of fortune;
|: Flourish in this fortune's blessing,
Flourish, German fatherland!

"

Now then...back to the love of arts...

I have this song on my I-pod

Though I have to say the one line that always confused me was the 'German women, German wine" part, that just dosnt seem like somthing you include in your national anthem unless you're the french. Maybe they should have said 'German beer' instead

*julius1880 Jun 28, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

I think they are refering to Mosel wine...not fully sure...you liked my post though?

~tigergirl1945 Jun 28, 2012

Maybe, I just always found that line odd.
Of coarse I liked it

*julius1880 Jun 28, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

I am very proud of my German roots. In this sense I am kaiser treue. I saw your icon and wondered if you are Jewish or just like the Star of David. I have friends who are Jewish and my family in German during WWII helped many escape...I am just wondering about your thoughts.

~tigergirl1945 Jun 28, 2012

Very glad you asked! Yes I am Jewish and I'm also German. I'm also very proud of my German roots and it annoys the living heck out of me when I say I'm German and people immediatly say 'Nazi!' (which happens a lot, appearantly in a lot of people's minds German and Jewish just dont mix.) I have friends that are German and not Jewish (one is even the desendant of a nazi and a I mean a full-blown, love hitler, hate Jews, nazi) but I dont hold that agiants her because she's one of the best people I know. And I love modern day Germany and the history of Germany (excluding the Hitler period.) And I also like Kaiser

*julius1880 Jun 28, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

My sister's husband is half Jewish. When it comes to the 3rd reich, I have an interest in it as well. I had family in the concentration camps due to being Freemasons and anti-Nazis. But there is this part of it thatdraws me to it like a moth to the flame.

Did you know that the colonel of the regiment that Hitler was in was Jewish? I re-enact WWI and a couple of the guys in may unit portray German Jews. My family comes from East Prussian Junkers. To me the Jews are gods people like Christians are. The few in the Bible who condemed Christ had the devil in their hearts, not all Jews.

The Holocaust was a terrible thing, but Germans today are taught to forget their Imperial past and all of their past. Germany should be a noble place, not one where they have to say sorry all the time.

As for you, I wonder if Frederick the Great took your ancestors in or the Great Elector...very interesting to say the least...

~tigergirl1945 Jun 28, 2012

I'm also interested in the third reich, but more in a 'how the heck did that happen' way.
Yes, I did, Hitler knew a couple of Jews. This is why I always say knowing somone of a certain race or religon dosnt autimatically make you free of racism. You have to earn that.
Well, Jesus was a Jew, the 'King of the Jews' even. I'm Jewish so I dont think he's son of god but he sure was a nice guy. You mean the Romans that crucified him?
We're all God's people (except terrorists and nazis and the like.)
'Forget their imperial past' you must have the wrong Germany because none of my German friends ever stop talking about their imperial past

As a Jew, I'd feel safer in Germany then any other place in Europe, especially considering where the economy is going.

*julius1880 Jun 29, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

You have a great deal of wisdon in this age...Also, I am glad that the Germans you hang around with are proud with their Imperial past...I have taken several classes regarding the 3rd Reich when I was an undergrad at Pitt (break: did you know thta members of the SS restructured the University of Pittsburgh in the 1`930's?)...all to the classes had this over sinister side...Ok, there was this evil, I acknowledge it...but who joined and why...you have struck an excellent question? I have several books (one a Penguin Book) which outlines who actually joined the NSDAP party...My theory...Germany today as it was in the 1920's is big on order...throw them out of whack and they need strong leadership...But in the 1920's there was a huge underlying antisemintic feeling in ALL Catholic countries...The Nazis sold themselves in the North of Germany and in East Prussia as the consertatives who would restore order...Overall the Nazis formed a coalition that hated socialism, communism, and anything against leftist ideals...In the end I too would stand beside von Stauffenberg in '44 to save Germany from the Nazis...Do you live in Germany now? I have been there many times and love the country. It is clean and in order and peaceful, excelt for the turkish gangs, communists, and nazis...
