        my idea of a cool judge like white rabbit

        For the viewers who come to here to C2a its been a while since you’ve seen little to no new content . “Yea…wtf” well life gets crappy and shit happens , but now were good to go :) . Got a boatload of new tuts, Got me a wacom tablet (the $70 one ,not the $1000+ one) so were stepping on some new ground here. Photo manipulation that will blow your cranium apart :D and more of that smooth jazz. Here a couple of my drawings and colorings (just got the tablet so the art is kinda iffy but never the less will get better with time :)
