Gehko Bindus: Master Thief

This is a painting of my character from my recently joined D&d game. When I first started gaming way back when, it was always my favorite thing. First creating and then drawing my character. I enjoyed (still do) creating characters even more than playing them. I guess, doing what I do for a living is kind of a perfect fit! Anyhoo. Introducing, Gehko Bindus the thief extraordinaire. He's a halfling. Like hobbits, I suppose. A hardcore pipe smoker, and smooth talking, fast thinking, gold purse's worst nightmare. He has an ironic penchant for the tallfolks' women, considering he's only pushing 3'3". I originally created him thinking he'd be a close combat type guy using a sickle and a dagger. But it turns out halflings and rogues are mega-pussies. So I spend a lot of time in the shadows wangchung-ing baddies with a crossbow. It wouldn't be so bad, but fighters can be such self-important pricks when it comes to the kill ratio. Experience whores. HA!

Ariokh's Muse: Frohawk

Just finished a big block of freelance. It's been insanely busy lately. Magic cards, and other wizards fare. Those guys keep me very busy. Anyway, my first free day and I feel like I'm not getting anything done, so i practiced some autoportraiture. Good times! I hope you guys like.
Comments and suggestions always welcome. Painted with Art Rage and Photoshop.

How to mod your DS!

I had a hard time finding out how to and what to get to set up my NDSlite for homebrew. Here are all the pieces you need, and links to get them, and you too can mess about with Colors, the most brilliant sketch program ever! (I'm posting this because so many people actively tried to keep me from getting the info when I asked like a raving fanboy)

There are a couple of cards available, but this one worked perfectly well for me; the R4 Revolution:

http://www.amazon.com/R4-Revolution-for-DS/dp/B000ZLTKBO/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=miscellaneous&qid=1199933218&sr=8-1

Right now the four gig HC micro SD card is NOT SUPPORTED. I bought it, and tried it, and couldn't return it. It may seem logical to get the largest possible card, but it will end up being a waste of cash. I hear they are working on updating the software, but I've also heard that it's categorically impossible to use the HC in the Revolution. That said... this two gig version will work PERFECTLY, and hold quite easily almost every game you could want to play, as well as precious Colors:

Finally following the directions that came with your R4, drag and drop the downloadable app with the extension .nds into a "ROMS" folder on your card... and blammo! Sketch to your hearts content, my little piglets!
