Draft
The original girl's face was so hideous I HAD to replace it!
Final
No time for a time lapse video, sadly. I'll be sure to get that out soon, as I did record my work ☺ Like everything else it takes time to put together... DOH!
Another hectic day!
Need to apologize again for not visiting your posts like I'd like to. However, I'll up vote non-spammy, NON-GENERIC comments!
ahhh but I thought you loved my spammy generic comments!!!!
Just messing wit ya, dope pic as always good sir!
Sorry to disappoint, but you're not vague and shallow enough to be in the spam mafia (yet). Try being more repetitive. Cut and paste helps. Avoid mentioning the actual content at all costs - not even the title... And give your best attempt at painfully superficial and contrived flattery.
Then you'll be a spammer!
I was going to have some curtains on fire in the background... as for the tree lights, just got so tired... Didn't think anyone would notice... I need to revert back to pencil sketches for a few weeks after my next two illustrations... so... much... work... XD
Still may have a chance to animate my spam rant next week, sure hope so...
That honestly sounds like waaaay too much work lmao
And curtains on fire would have been lit haha ;)
And yeah I feel ya on these time consuming posts! Took me 5 hours today to make and edit the latest episode of The Minnow's Playground smh.
And I really hope you do because your animations are hilarious! Just in time for the holidays haha It will probably blow TF up at the pace your going! How long does one animation normally take start to finish?
Well to summarize, in the time it takes to do 4 -5 detailed illustrations, I can probably make an animation... roughly 25 - 40 hours. Generally speaking I need to keep simplifying... I know there's a way to prevent burn out and still stay funny...
Optimally I should do 6 pencil scribbles a week and one animation... hard to tell where work will be in a week or two though... No way am I cashing out my Steem earnings either, so I'm pressured more to bring in that fiat, lolz
A steem withdrawal would be a last resort...
What's up with all the whiny weasels crying about the market dip? Haha...
Omg that is ridiculous!!! Dude thats a full work week, I had no idea! I always knew you worked hard, but I think I drastically underestimated how much time it took to do what you do! Please tell me your sketches only take an hour haha?!
Either way hard work pays off, and it's clearly showing through your blog man!
And yeah I hope it never gets bad enough that you take out your Steem because we're are all gonna be rich in a few years haha
I almost got that point just this week, but some money came in clutch out of no where! And I literally had to individual text all of my family and friends I've introduced to crypto to not sell smh They believed the whole "bitcoin bubble has popped" nonsense smh Hopefully they listen haha
Yup, I don't even want to calculate what my last one took! The pencil sketches take from 15 - 45 minutes I think, possibly less for simpler ones...
It's easy to believe the sky's falling with the stupid media lying at every turn to stir up panic and get more attention... weasels!
Oh that's not that bad at all! And nothing wrong with simple haha
And yeah I was at the bar yesterday trying to tell people the "bubble didn't pop", and got laughed at haha It's cool I've been accumulating more coins with my SBD!!!
really? I wanna see the original one 😆
:( CRAZY!
ahahahaha I think she is trying to eat me XD
you made wise choice replacing new face!
What can I say, I was really tired haha...
The new, good one does look a lot like Kubby :D
That's funny... that other one is toadally horrifying :( Glad the Kubby doesn't look like THAT one!
She just ate a 10 strip 😂🙃
That and I can't draw when I'm tired lolz
will show you later - super busy haha...
oh ok! thank you for taking your time to write me back! enjoy your day😊
Love the illustration! Bitcoin is a snail...I totally missed out on DASH...now I am just keeping and eye on promising ones around $1...because that's all I can afford to invest in at the moment. Even $20 towards something has the potential to be amazing...I wonder if it's just too late for me and DASH.
What's your Dash address, @creativesoul?
I seem to have every other kind of wallet...but not this one.
When I saw the price of Dash I held back on creating an account that I couldn't fund.
I should probably create a Dash address anyway...just in case the price drops.
Well, if you decide to create one by the end of today, post it here.... ;)
It was a little bit difficult to figure out...and the only wallet that I could find...required a desktop download. This was under my receiving addresses:
XbLw1cDrqwwRS186ahcX88u71KDt2LqQ5p
Do you have access to a Dash faucet?
I am the Dash faucet, LOL :D
No, someone asked me last week "What's your Dash address?" and then sent me some money.
And I thought, isn't this the most beautiful question in the world? ;)
So this is my way of giving back, plus I am sponsored by Dash to do giveaways like this (normally there is some Dashucation attached to that, but hey, it's Christmas! :)
Btw, you can download the "Dash wallet" on your phone, or Exodus or Jaxx work, too.
@creativesoul is a very worthy recipient, she was AFK from steemit for a while, but somehow managed to encourage me in the rare appearances she made. I have no idea how or why, but maybe she could read my aura thru the 'webs? LOL!!! You two ladies did not make it to my upvote giveaway so I came here. You are also doing awesome work, Connect! :D <3
Ahaha...well I was quite puzzled at first why you asked for my Dash Address but after I looked at your profile and it said coach...I figured something promotional was going on! Dash Core says...I am three years behind...and I am out of sync and it's a node...and it's for developers...so using that might have been a big whoops! I am downloading Exodus now...because it sounds like the one that I thought I was getting in the first place. Now I just have to figure out how to safely uninstall Dash Core....hehehe. Thank you so much for thinking of me! Merry Christmas...much love! <3
So far as I know, bitshares and EOS are real big potential winners, IOTA is worth checking out...
I've missed out on 99.5% of things too, except for a bit of steem. But analysts think this is just the beginning of crypto wealth compared to what's to follow...
Right now...I feel like I must get on the boat with Bitshares, EOS and IOTA...even in a very small capacity...I would have no regrets. I have heard other people mention them too and researched them. I am trying to figure out how to buy Bitshares but it's confusing as hell and I keep getting error messages trying to send it from Bittrex...lol. There is a big wave of wealth coming...I can feel it. Just need to somehow build up a little stash. Ill leave the big gains to the high volume traders...I will be overjoyed just for a small piece of the pie. <3
I think Bittrex delisted bitshares and it may be too late to remove them? I have a fiery hatred for Bittrex and all the other centralized exchanges :-/
You can get bitshares through blocktrades in the Steem wallet page, did you know this?
Oh right!!! I knew Bittrex delisted Bitshares...but I didn't even clue into the connection in trying to send a transaction from one to the other. That's a big DUH moment for me. Having a centralized exchange kinda defeats the purpose of a decentralized crypto currency network. It feels like the government telling me what can...and cannot do for no apparent reason but greed. Anyway thank you for letting me know about buying bitshares on blocktrades...I knew about this service but did not know what I was looking at...or what it was for...or how to use it. I have SO much learning to do...if at all possible I just want to keep it low key..while still making sure I am not being left in the dust.
I agree so much! Yes there's profit potential, but there's a feeling of great fragility and uncertainty for someone who's just getting started... :-r
What? I am still trying to figure this one out! I do like cartoon Gail’s big smile. Happy New Year!
The gift of bitcoin (the snail) guarantees very slow transaction speeds, while the gift of dash (rocket) means fast transfer speeds. It's a comparison between the two cryptos.
Happy New Year as well!
looks adorable!
I want a bit-snail now!
Thanks for squeezing this into your busy schedule!! :)
Hi Connect! I bet you are the Funny and Fun Person that OKC did this fine artwork for... :D
FOLLOW for YOU!
Yep :)
:D thank YOU!!! Instead... or thank us both, I dunno.
Aaah, gratitude all around, it's Christmas after all! :)
Giddy with holiday excitement! (jk haha)
In all honesty, the guy deserved it for HODLING Bitcoin after the 20k mark.
It's far more profitable to invest into altcoin these days.
Cheers! Upvoted.
interesting, Dash must be something to invest in, it's among my portfolio possibilities, I did my research about it and I think it has a good future, now it's only an altcoin but the next few weeks will tell us more ! I guess I'm gonna start to buy ethereum first now that prices are going to be lower; I just managed to have my 1st account validated and I'm excited to put my strategy into practice, by holding ethereum and putting some investment into iota,eos,electroneum and other promising altcoins like dash ; do you know if we can buy dash directly from a site or you have to do trade with ethereum or bitcoin? what is in your mind the most efficient trading site ? with less fees? bittrex?
@connecteconomy might have an answer about the easiest way to obtain #Dash -
I'm all done with centralized exchanges and I don't trade. I prefer bitshares exchange. So I'm not sure what to recommend if you like a wide range of things to trade.
@loonyfool there are a couple of options in Europe - bitpanda.com and anycoindirect.eu, not sure where you are. Uphold.com works too.
Otherwise just buy it from Bitcoin on Bitshares or other altcoin exchanges.
Put a dash address here and I'll get you started!
So glad the expert stepped in! ☺
Oh my, you drew me! I have short brown hair and smile really big and on discord I’m blue, that me spreading pink joy!!
You're a big part of the community, so you'll know for sure - I was wondering, where should I send a musician who's new here to hangout in discord? What connections would be best? He does cinematic soundtrack type compositions - @beyonder
So funny that you say that, the original characters were simply blue and orange, I changed them to coloured at the last minute ☺
Excellent color choice my friend. Send him over to MSP/pal with this link https://discord.gg/5fq2zPt. We have a few musicians there. Have him check out Buckys show on Tuesday too. Will be a blast to have him interact with our musicians friends.
Now I know what I want for Christmas!
I'd tie the rocket to the snail and put him on the salt flats!
What's your Dash address, @otage?
The enthusiasm is contagious and well depicted by @overkillcoin.
My Dash address : )

Happy Christmas! :) 🎄
Wow - Christmas came early this year! Thank you and Merry Christmas!
nice artwork and design...bitcoin is sad...
bitcoin is having a bad day
I am as sleepy as unable to write a non generic comment x_x I should be washing baby stuff x'D oh yeah, the illustration, oh.. it is coolingan and creativedirdim :D
XDDD I like how your art is turning with all this BTC madness!
I need to illustrate less, tooooooo time consumingnyan XD
try a flat one :P
Very cool. Is that your wallet QR code in the bottom right? I could check, but I'm lazy and figure I'd just ask.
Yup. I was advised to put it in there XD
Nice post....
Bahaha, I can’t i just love yourbwork too much to spam. Although it feels like spam to say how much I love your work all the time. Have I mentioned my love for pink, we could all use a little pink?
Haha... you've probably seen my narwhal post by now? So much pink!!!!
Thanks! :D
I haven't until you mentioned it, stop hiding your work from me!
That snail looks like he's looking for a noose and a step ladder.. either that or he's just.... special...
Bitcoin's been 'special' for the last- I dunno - six months? the slower it gets, the more people are buying it up.
If bitcoin was an employee, it would have been fired a lonnnnnnnnnng time ago ;D
Nice i'm glad I made the call a few months ago on Dash that's now up over 1,000% since I bought a few months ago. I still feel like it has massive room for growth though and could actually be higher value per coin then bitcoin since there are less of them 7 million dash while 16 million bitcoin. If it had the same market cap we would be looking at about $31,000 per coin!
It's too late for me, but at least there's steem and bitshares haha...
good post @bijoy123
G8t post. F4F?
Haha, that's the second time you've said that!
Which reminds me, I still need to finish my 2nd spam rant!
