“PLEASE. Contro couldn’t turn me on if he had an instruction manual on the subject!” - Ashiri.
“Can’t turn some THING on when she BROKE!!!” - Contro
And it just got intense people…
Da Crap?!
Off topic, but I’d love to see Contro and mrcontro beat each other up for no other reason than for the studies XDOH MISTAH C! XD
Mistah C: I have no desire in fighting Contro
Contro: Cuz you know I would win…
Mistah C: Because it’s pointless…
Contro: Cuz I would win…
Mistah C: It’s because I don’t fight stupid, I demolish them.
Contro: …..Screw you dork!
My Thoughts on this Preston Thing
I agree with what Digitoonie had to say in her post. Everything, and everyone involved in this matter, is just wrong.
Causing harm to an artist out of nowhere is not only immature and inappropriate, it’s very cowardly. It is as cowardly as you calling someone names on the internet using “anonymous” and thinking you did something awesome, worthy of bragging. For the individual(s) who not only planned it but carried it out, they should be ashamed. Conventions would have to do a better job protecting the artists they allow to come and present as well.
While the culprits were wrong in this incident, Tom Preston has had some participation to this, unfortunately. Reading about his ranting, his unnecessary way of taunting through his comics or journal rants..or even responses to individual posting, has finally came back to him off the internet. It really is unfortunate, and it is something I do NOT want him to receive. However, he needs to recognize that his attitude and the way he treat others from his celebrity status would come back in a response. It’s like what the Bible say, “You reap what you sow.” Trust me, you really do.
Now, does that mean he needs to take criticism? No, he can do whatever he wants with his art. He can decide to not care about advancing, he can decide to not work as hard as others…and he can also choose not to respond to people if he wants. He can also learn and choose to be a little more respectful in his actions….again, that’s his choosing.
Another wrong is this constant resentment our artist community has towards Tom, his artwork, and his attitude towards his viewers and visitors alike. Yes, I have seen people don’t like his work and talk about it. Yes, I have seen people dislike his responses to others when they offer him criticism and he decides to do harm than good. Yes I’ve seen people continue to make posts of nothing but negativity. And yet I find it wrong to continue this resentment visibly to others in the community where others who are new will get a whiff of what’s been happening. I can understand if you may not like a person’s work because of the effort or the person, or both. What needs to change is the tone we display about another person’s work…because in all honesty - it really seemed as if someone finally did something a lot of people wanted to do for a long time. Letting Tom know how many really feel about him…and not just with text.
————————
In closing, and to sum it up (for those who don’t want to read the long version), we have to do better in how we conduct our thoughts online. Seriously, I don’t CARE that it’s just art/entertainment…our words are swift on the internet, to where (and without thinking) our reactions come quicker and it can lead to situations that we never really want to be.
Treat others right with your artwork, with your blog, less drama. I’m not promising that people won’t test you…what I am saying is, you won’t have to worry about an individual wanting to do harm to you. Because you never know…your response to someone might be that exact individual who would like to take the conversation further. And not in a pleasant way.
Contro out.
No Eirin don’t do that
You’re going to damage the Nintendo.
Mokou is using that man wtf Eirin
And I wonder what ignited that explosive blow…glad that wasn’t me who said what was just said! :D lol

Saturday Morning Sketch Jam Concluded.
Hey guys! I hope you enjoyed this week’s Saturday Morning Sketch Jam!
It was a lot of fun sketching and exploring these Disney characters…and they were all inspiring for me to try more (I wished I had more time). Who knows…maybe another session will be in order for some more Disney characters…and maybe some villains as well! :D
Until then, enjoy the posts, maybe one of them will get inked like Mario or the Brain…just yell out some requests! :) Have a great Saturday everybody!
Saturday Morning Sketch Jam: Sebastian
Hey man..don’t look at me all mad and crabby…Wasn’t for Zazu, we’d still be rockin’ this joint! :D But this is the last submission for Saturday Morning Sketch Jam.
I remember how fun watching his musical number for The Little Mermaid, seeing all the different fish and choreography. It was so strong, full of life and wonder! Watching Waking Sleeping Beauty (seriously, get this DVD! True eye openers for Disney fans and animation admirers alike!) was jaw dropping in their description for what was going to happen with The Little Mermaid…trust me, serious stuff was goin’ down to where Part of Your World was NOT going to be in the film…could you imagine that?! Yeah, me neither.
Saturday Morning Sketch Jam: Zazu
AH SNAP!!! It’s Zazu!!! You know what that means….
He just told on us for havin’ fun, and the party is about to come to an END!!!! D: NOOOOooOOOOOOOOOooOOOOOOOOOOoooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL *cough cough* Uh no seriously…he just went and done told on me…that little snitch…but before I go, I got one more sketch to close out the party…bring out the band! :D
On a side note, he was so amazing in the first Lion King. He wasn’t flat, wasn’t one dimensional…AND we total got what he was all about in the minutes he was on screen…I can’t say the same for his appearance in Lion King 2. That movie was garbage.
