I'm taking drawing lessons from Michael Schleifke

Who is Michael Schleifke? He's the author of this awesome comic series:

I have yet to read it, but you can see all of his work here.
Enjoy this picture that I drew of Obama, after a lesson with him:

I kinda messed it up, but hell, at least I'm improving.

Kaktos Wiki

You can view it here. It will soon have all the information about Kaktos on there.
Kind of short, and after over a week, but I had to post this. It's only got two articles now, though.

A shirt design I'm making

Hey guys, sorry for the recent lack of updates, I've been busy... well, not too busy. Mostly lazy. Let's settle for a compromise and say I was busy being lazy.

You know by now about my crazy religion. What was originally a design for religious indoctrination propaganda, I'm going to make into a design for a t-shirt. This is what I have so far:




I suck at ears. This is what I have, though, so far - A cactus, with headphones plugged into it, putting whatever Kaktolik words would go into a human(oid?) ear.

When the design is complete, and looking awesome, I will submit it to Threadless.

Drew this in class, thought was worth mentioning.

It's the Shako Launcher 3141592. It launches shakos.
How the hell they get from the tank into the cannon through the tube is beyond me. It just works.

Kaktolisizm - About my strange, awesome religious beliefs.

Believe it or not, I worship a giant cactus on Neptune.
Well, not necessarily an actual "cactus" and not necessarily "on Neptune"

He's actually an omnipotent being who chose not to be entirely omnipotent but still totally rule all existence, nonexistence, corporeal, and non-corporeal. And he takes the form of a cactus, with infinite spines. His name is Kaktos.

 Fig.1 The symbol of Kaktos

As for the Neptune part, that dark blue spot on Neptune - the storm, is actually a portal to the dimension in which Kaktos exists and nonexists - the Neptidotae.

Some things to know about Kaktos is, that bees are his brains - a Kaktolik metaphor for pure insanity. He invented Dr Pepper, and vanquished God from existence. But he didn't just vanquish him from existence from that point on - He got rid of all of his existence, in every universe, past, present, and future - There is no god, there will be no god, and there never was any god, and we (... well, I) thank Kaktos for that. The actual reason that he got rid of God was first, trying to patent the universe, which always did exist and he couldn't have created. The second reason was that he tried to create his own soda which tasted terrible. He who can create a drink as great as Kaktos is almost (not nearly) as great as Kaktos himself. God is not that. Today, the only remnant of God, somehow, is a book entitled "The Holy Bible."

Kaktos is not a god. Kaktos is not a deity. He is not a supernatural being. He is above all of those things, because he is Kaktos. Enough said there.

Kaktos's infinite spines were getting quite cumbersome in the Neptidotae. He had to figure out what the hell he was going to do with them. He decided "I'll just put them in a new plane of existence." Yeah, he said that out loud, because he knew everyone in the universe would have to care about what he said.

The Realm of Infinite Spines is an interesting place. When after eternity, since the universe always existed, he discovered life on other planets, he found that a lot of the life-forms were assholes. The assholes ended up getting placed in there. Don't worry, it's nothing like the Bible's teachings of hell - You don't go for eternity, that would be pointless. What the hell do you learn or gain from being punished if you're just going to be there for the rest of eternity? Everyone goes to the Neptidotae eventually. Even assholes. Sure, they'll be placed on the third level, where the Internet connection is terrible, the Dr Pepper fountain isn't always running, and your apartment building is only 50 square meters in size. Also, the Neptidotae isn't heaven. It's not a perfect world, it's just better than anything that exists on any other world because there's no possibility of corruption. People often wonder what the Neptidotae looks like - Really, it's just however you want. It's designed to be completely aesthetically pleasing for everyone. The second level has good enough Internet connection speed for just about any online gaming, and really fast download speeds. Also, they have the best torrent tracker in existence. The Dr Pepper fountain runs all day, but it isn't a very big one. There are other drinks in the Neptidotae, but Dr Pepper is holy, sacramental, or whatever you would call it. The first level is the best. You get an apartment/house/mansion/private yacht that's 15,000 square meters in size. It can even be bigger on the inside if you want. The Dr Pepper fountain is larger than Kaktos himself, and there are Dr Pepper fountains inside your own living area. Oh, and all Internet connection is completely instantaneous. You can brag about your 0 ping to game servers. You can move up/down any level in the Neptidotae depending on how much of an asshole you've been. So don't be an asshole - seriously.

How do you enter the Neptidotae, though? Well, we don't have souls and it's not necessarily when we die. In fact, you just die when you go to the Neptidotae. The way it works is, there is a non-corporeal form of you in another plane of existence who takes your corporeal form in this existence and that is you. Once it's ready to leave to the Neptidotae, it allows such events to happen that you die in this existence, bringing the non-corporeal beings through the corporeal universe again through the portal that's in the Neptidotae - Corporeal beings who enter it will be destroyed and stuck in some form of purgatory until someone is kind enough to get you out of there. And the native language there is hexagons and triangles. Hopefully you understand how to speak that. So kids, don't try this at home. (Or on Triton)

About that Triton thing - It's a Kaktolik plan of easier entry to the Neptidotae, and being closer to Kaktos. It's Neptune's largest moon, and there's one thing we (I) want to do with it - Start a Kaktolik colony. Please note that big enough assholes will be launched from space into the portal as corporeals. So again, don't be an asshole. Moving to this colony may guarantee entry to the first level, just don't be an asshole.

There's also level 0 of the Neptidotae. Kaktos lives secretly somewhere in here, also, it's filled with Cupcake Guaridans - arthropod-like beings with evil-looking masks, which stand guard protecting their giant cupcakes. Don't try to get the cupcakes, failure is inevitable. Level zero isn't like the other levels, it's really mostly desert and cacti. Don't destroy those cacti, Kaktos will be pretty pissed about that.

I will be starting a whole page about the Kaktolik beliefs. Maybe even a new blog for it. It's an awesome religion because sometimes it even incorporates the beliefs of others. For example, the teachings of the Flying Spaghetti monster. So don't worry, there is a beer volcano and stripper factory, too.


And don't forget the teachings of Science. Those are important, too.

To you Garry's Mod Players out there

If you go on to the Toybox, and see that the most popular map is "gm_jail_simulator2" under the name Mirab, His Sails Unfurled - That was me.

Let me explain the story behind that. So the map has a lua worm in it, which makes it so that when you download and play the map, it forces the game to give the map a "like" on the Toybox. This kept happening till the map became increasingly popular, and as it gained popularity it got to the front page of the Toybox so more people downloaded it, to the point that it's now more popular than any other map.

The map is nothing more than a boring cell, with stuff like a bed, for some reason a lamp, some prison bars, and a guard standing outside. It is literally a jail simulator, it simulates what it's like to be locked in a cell.

Here's a picture of how many likes I got.

Now, here's some of the lovely comments that I got:

Also, here's part of what the map looks like:

Pretty dull, right?












Oh, also one more thing.

My Take on Brazzerfying - Pitrues from /r/Pics

I know it's not the most creative thing I could come up with, but it's still pretty amusing to slap the Brazzers logo onto random images I find on /r/pics.
Here's three of them that I made.


A logo can make such a huge difference...
(I deleted one of them, because it was horrible and depressing. If you haven't seen it, be glad.)

Oh god, what have I done?

I was given a picture to photoshop in the comments of my last post.

Let's see, I've done:
Derped eyes.
Upside-down mouth (Part of the request)
And no more shirt.


God, I suck with content-aware.

Someone give me an image to Photoshop.

My creative flow is running a bit slowly right now, give me an image and I'll see what I can do with it.

Yay, new background.

It's purple!

You can't deny purple is an awesome color. Sorry about JPEG rape, though, imgur made it from png to gif since it was so huge. Anyway I'm working on overhauling the layout of the site, so it's not the boring, unoriginal Awesome Inc layout.

Something I found from about two years ago

Remember the Toy Story "Dicks, Dicks everywhere" meme? Here's one of the contributions that I made.
Considering this was two years ago, you can notice my 'shopping abilities were a lot less than they are now. Also, the right hand *facedesk*

I can't find my very first Photoshops, though, since they got lost along with my old Windows XP. I can only imagine how bad they were.

Also, possible future updates for this blog:
Me learning to speak Klingon.
A story I'm writing entitled "The Most Redundant System in the Galaxy"
More Photoshops.

Sax Baby

I don't have much content for right now, so have this picture of a baby, with a saxophone photoshopped into its hands.

The PICARDIS


This was originally intended for a TrekBBS contest. Now I want Patrick Stewart to play the next Doctor.

Rai and Jiri at Lungha.

Rai and Jiri at Lungha. Rai of Lowani. Lowani under two moons. Jiri of Ubaya. Ubaya of crossroads, at Lungha. Lungha, her sky gray

My blog is mostly about stuff I Photoshop, or weird-ass stories that I write. Key point is, I like to create stuff.
And if you get how I started the post, you'll know I'm a devout Trekkie, as well.

Now, I shall post stuff.
