That looks super-nice!

I'm amazed, because every time I've ever looked at Instagram before, the page has flashed black-and-white, never settling down. I assumed there was something about it that didn't work with my PC. But your page here seems to work just fine for me. Quick loading, no problems. So, Hunter, you must be doing something right! Or whatever my old problem was, I guess it went away?

Thanks Peter!

does this show up at all or does someone have to be logged in?

I see it! 

Ed's piece, This may not stay the same, most likely some changes will be made to Mr. Zombie Quinby here.

I need to fix one of the eyes, but here's another update.

Why fix the eye? Seems like not having them match is just part of the monsterizing process. I like it though and you're the boss, just don't make me too pretty!

Hmm.....that did turn around in my brain as well Ed. I thought maybe I should keep it and enhance it even more with some swelling above the eye. I thought about taking some of the veins off so I can embellish the features a bit more and get some rendering in, then go back and put swollen vessels back in. I've got some dark shadows I want to play with on the right as well.

I'm having fun, feels good to get that energy back and know you're destroying something awesome in the process!

 

Very cool.

I have a question though. An instagram question.

I have a couple blogs, a DeviantArt gallery, a twitter feed, and a Linked-in page, why should I want an instagram? What's the benefit? My nephew has one, and he says I should too, but that wasn't enough to sell me on it yet...

I just now took the plunge and got one honestly Joe. It took me along time to get to getting one, but I have to say it's mostly a mobile feature. You have it as an app on your phone and then you have chance to instantly put a light filter on the photo you just took and upload it.

So...it's a flashy tool that can sometimes offer a bit of pop/flair instantly and maybe make other people take a second look at your work or oddly enough take you seriously.

I started getting offers to buy the paintings once I opened up the instagram account. Next on my list is maybe tumblr, and doing something with linked in, flickr maybe as well.

The drama.....what's the drama? All these friggin' sites!!! Too much to manage and handle right? I'm right there with you pal. I feel like I need an 8 hour day on Wednesdays, "Web Work Wednesdays", to just wrap my head around all the social media, emailing, web design, updates etc. In fact I'd pretty much would have to not have a 40 hour a week job like I have to really take advantage huh?

 

Well my buddy Ben Nirven gave me this link: https://ifttt.com/

It ties all his social media together and he only usually has to make one post. Give it a shot.

American Ed, part the first!!!

Further down the rabbit hole we go:

Is that an eyeball or a grape?       

whatever it is, I think it looks wicked.

Thanks man! It's an eyeball actually.
