Nice Super Luigi XD

[MrsQyzbud]

My mistake ^.^

As Mr. Qyz knows I seem to have bad luck with people even when I'm trying to help them, so I always assume the worst haha

[Chibisai Kong]

Don't feel bad, I do too.

It's been a little while since I've updated on my brother, for any of you guys that have been following. This update isn't really about how he's doing or anything, but I still feel that it's worth sharing.

For this ceramics project, we're making a project of "something you hate/something you want to go away," so I'm doing my brother's addiction. It was difficult to think of a way to personify it into a sculpture, but I've come up with an idea. What I'm doing is a monster holding a brain in one hand, and a crack pipe in the other. The monster has his ribs showing, and I'm going to put various scars on his body. I'm also going to put various drug paraphernalia around him, making it more recognizable that it has to deal with drug addiction.

Now, my brother doesn't know about this project, and I've decided that when it's finished, or if it's finished before Christmas (have to wait for it to dry and use coloured slips, fire it, glaze it, and fire it again... so it's a bit of a process), give it to him as a Christmas gift. When I'm finished with it, I'll post a picture in the non-dkc related artwork thread, so you guys can see it, too.

It's been difficult because I've been looking up pictures of drug addicts before and after, and I'm currently watching a documentary on crack... this is really hard on me, and I'm probably going to have to take a lot of breaks... but I definitely want my emotions to show through in the artwork. I want Steve to see my sorrow, anger, frustration, and depression (depression about his addiction, not like an all-around depression, so you don't have to be concerned about me) in this piece. I hope that it shows him my feelings and I sincerely hope that it can help... which sounds silly... but... I dunno.... it's hard to explain... I just hope that it helps him in any way that a sculpture could.

[Chibisai Kong]

*hugs Phyre, just hugs her and strokes her hair*I hope he gets over his addiction too. I am truly sorry you feel all the things you do and I hope your brother understands...

[Super Luigi!]

Well what can I say to that? Hmmm... how about, "Do what you think you must, even if it kills you."

[Simion32]

Super Luigi! is an enormous breath of fresh air.

He makes the Atlas feel so positive and inviting!

[Chibisai Kong]

Yes he does.

[Super Luigi!]

That is precisely the reason why I'm glad to have joined the Atlas. I've made a positive difference here, and that's all that matters.

I've been thinking a bit about age.

It's funny; I'm 21 now and I started going on forums at the age of 12/13. Heck, even when I joined here at age 16 I felt a bit young compared to many forum members. Now though... it seems like a good 80% of all forum-goers are younger than me. I don't even know what happened


Speaking of age, my 100-year-old great-grandfather passed away last night. We all saw it coming (he's been sick and somewhat unresponsive for the last few weeks) but it's still sad nonetheless. What's important is that he lived a long, good life.

[Chibisai Kong]

Awww, I'm sorry to hear that Cody.

I wonder why Nintendo didn't use the unused green Parabeetle in the level "Parabeetle Challenge" in Super Mario Advance 4?
I doesn't make any sense.
Mind you, there's TONS of unused World -e crap in SMA4...

[MrsQyzbud]

Someone make me a little avatar thing please? I can't work out how haha

I don't want to admit to the owner of this website, my partner, that I don't know how to make pictures smaller

[Chibisai Kong]

If the paint program on your computer has a resize button, click that and pic any number under a hundred that you would like it to go to. That is the percentage of the original picture's size it would shrink to.

[MrsQyzbud]

I don't have a computer....

[Phyreburnz]

I could help you out, MrsQ. Message me and let me know what you want. I might not be able to get to it till Monday, but I promise I'll help!

[MrsQyzbud]

Thanks so much! However MrQ saw and made one for me I think

[Geno]

Hey, let's play money making guessing game!

Here's a normal Minecraft screenshot, and you guys have to tell me what is odd about it.

Spoiler!

Hint: The name of the image is a hint.

[Chibisai Kong]

It's the DK pic on the other wall!

In other news, I finally had one of those awkward tumblr moments.

[Super Luigi!]

Is it one of those certain situations when you tumble down the stairs in your underwear and wake up in a basket of laundry?

[Qyzbud]

No, Super Luigi, maybe this link will help: http://dklover101295.deviantart.com/#/d5ifltr ← crude pun ahead, proceed with caution!

[Simion32]

me = 2020

[Chibisai Kong]

Oh, hey, Simion!

[Super Luigi!]

1011001110010110100011100101101= computer

[MrsQyzbud]

Yay! I have an avatar! And it's meeeeeee!!
Qyz reckons I'm the only one who has my actual face as my dp!

So yeah... THIS IS ME →

[Gaz]

You're right. You are hot . Qyzbud thinks it more, though. That's okay.

[MrsQyzbud]

Hehe naww thank you ^.^

I hope I am because someone as attractive as Qyz deserves someone super hot

[Super Luigi!]

AHHHHHH, I'VE BURSTED INTO FLAMES JUST BY LOOKING AT YOUR HOTNESS! IT BURNNNNNNNNNNNS!

[Simion32]

*head implodes from mere presence of redhead*

[Gaz]

You're welcome Mrs. Qyzbud. Qyzbud does deserve it because he's awesome . Now if Katastrophe Kong were here...

[Chibisai Kong]

You, MrsQyzbud, are a very beautiful woman.

[Phyreburnz]

*head implodes from mere presence of redhead*

Gee... thanks Simion... I've been here for at least a year now... and I have *real* red hair... I feel so unnoticed...

[Chibisai Kong]

Awww, Phyre, you're a beautiful redhead too :3 ♥

[Simion32]

Sorry, I completely wasn't thinking. Of course you are a (real) redhead. Me =

My statement was meant more as being only in the context of MrsQyzbud, and wasn't meant to refer to other forum members.

You do too much around here to not be noticed. I download and archive all of your custom stuff. And you have over a thousand posts.

So it's OVER NINE THOUSSAAAANNDDDD!! for you as well.

[Phyreburnz]

Woo hoo!

I'm just kinda messing with you anyway!

...and do I really have over a thousand posts... Yeah, I know... the number of posts is below the icon/avatar thingy... wow... maybe I talk too much!

[Simion32]

Only Jomingo tops myself in post count, but you post much more frequently than I do, Phyre. You'll probably have way more posts than me before the end of 2013.

Of course I have university and can't post as often as is typical during the summer, but my reasoning still holds in any case.

[MrsQyzbud]

AHHHHHH, I'VE BURSTED INTO FLAMES JUST BY LOOKING AT YOUR HOTNESS! IT BURNNNNNNNNNNNS!

You're welcome Mrs. Qyzbud. Qyzbud does deserve it because he's awesome . Now if Katastrophe Kong were here...

You, MrsQyzbud, are a very beautiful woman.

Nawwwwwww!!
Thank youuu!
You're all so lovely!!

Also; I'm not sure if it's in any way related to me but I'm not a red head, it's "Atomic Pink!" - Super bright and it glows under black lights!
(Naturally it's really dark brown)

[Gaz]

You're welcome Mrs. Qyzbud. Glad I could help you be happy . I'm honest, you are hot and you're the perfect type for Qyzbud (I hope he's not going to tell us all off for this conversation as he says, "Hey, it's mah girlfriend!"...)

[MrsQyzbud]

Hehe ^.^ I don't think he minds coz he knows I've only got eyes for him! ♥

[Simion32]

Post 10,000 in Anything Goes

[Super Luigi!]

Let's do it! We have the technology!

[Chibisai Kong]

Wooh! *dons cheerleader outfit*

[MrsQyzbud]

*Walks in wearing school girl outfit*

Hey what's everyone doing??

[Chibisai Kong]

I love starting stuff XD

[KremKrawl]

Well, I just recently remembered this board, so I decided to come back on here. What's changed since I was last on here, back when DKCR came out? And if none of you recognize me, then this will be even more awkward. So yeah.

Welcome back, KremKrawl! Qyz's girlfriend joined and she's a real nice person.

[Phyreburnz]

I've had this idea for a new Kong that I'd like to attempt to make in Sculptris. I really need to get back to making those custom enemies... I really wish I could just make them out of clay... which, ideally I could do, but I'm so bad with digital art that isn't Photoshop. I'm really going to try to do this better and watch bunches of tutorials.

But this idea for a Kong that I have, I've always wanted to have a tomboy, rather than the stereotypical girlie-girls. I thought it would be cool for her to be a monkey, similar to Diddy. I even thought of a special ability. She should pick up barrels with her tail (thereby holding the barrel above her, because she'll walk on all fours), and then, she has her arms free, so she could be able to swing on and climb up ropes, all while carrying a barrel. I thought that would be a cool ability for a Kong.

I've also wondered why there are no female gorillas in the DK games... at all... I thought a good idea for a character would be a female gorilla that loves DK and is jealous of Candy.

Qyz's girlfriend joined and she's a real nice person.

Nawww thank you!
