Apparently, it isn't sold by ANYONE anymore, nor are they made.

I've been looking into it, and everywhere I look, it either isn't there, or is listed as not available.

On the main Wacom site, it says that they are on back order and "don't know when they will be available", which basically means that they are likely planning to remove it from the site pretty soon here.

So yeah, hate hate hate.

Looks like I won't get to draw again until I get a new tablet. ;\

Edit: Not looking to have people give suggestions on what tablet to get or where I can get one, I was just venting on how I can't possibly get a new pen now.

So,  drathek gave me a three day trial of TF2 so I could try out the game for a few days, I rather enjoyed the chance I got to play it.

Was quite nice being able to play with a variety of different people (though I admit, some of those people can be the creepy with their murry purry I want to hump a complete stranger attitudes, was only for one of the furry servers it was like that at least. x:)

Through Steam, I've apparently started becoming more able to play shooter games without hating the guts out of them, which is a good thing I suppose, gives me more that I'll actually play without whining about it. x:

Back to TF2 though, I liked how a lot of the classes rely on the others in order for teams to function properly, and how some classes get advantages on some maps compared to them being almost useless in others.
While playing a Heavy for the mass majority of the time I played, I found that I was almost useless without a medic by my side. Seeing as I was new to the game, I did not create any strategies to help me out at all, though by the third day I was able to survive much longer then on the first day when I started playing, mostly because I was more familiar with the gameplay, controls and the maps.

In any case, getting this game is on my list of things to do after getting a new tablet pen, which is still my top priority. x:

I'll prob go with the orange box once I get the chance, maybe they will have an easter special for it, though I quite doubt it. :B


This journal is just because I like talking to myself.

I cried at the ending, stupid song. :|

It sucks that you know who died, he was a good character.

I hated how they made that woman die during that part too, but I suppose it fits. ;\


Sorry if I spoiled anything for anyone who hasn't seen it. :B

First to post gets a sketch. ;\

Hopefully your something I am even slightly capable of drawing.
I also need an image reference, not a text reference.

Just post a comment to try to get the first one, then reply with your reference image and a possible pose or few.

This is so I can work on those commissions I still owe at the bottom of my journal, I am not quite used to drawing on paper again, don't want them to look horrible when I draw them.

I found out today that funimation actually has has all of the episodes in high quality on its website, after I went and looked forever to find a download for the series, just to watch it in low quality.

I recommend watching the series, it is quite enjoyable, though it can be rather unusual at times, but that is expected of any kind of anime.

Ever since I watched through both seasons of this (this is season two, but it makes barely any reference to the first one as this one focuses more on the fact that the main character is a magician). I've been obsessed with magic stuff. :B

Anyways, just thought I'd recommend a good anime to you guys. Can't wait till FMA:Reloaded gets streamed on the site.

This is a list I've been gathering up for about...two years or so, I am actually rather glad there is very few of us are out there. :B

Apparently, I am the only one who has markings, and normal colored hair. (white doesn't count because that is your hair color when your old. :c )
Edit: Never mind about the hair. :v


I hope to make this list bigger somedayyyyy.


Edit: If you guys find any, note me or leave a comment in this journal.
Please note that dragons who are Mainly yellow, then black, do not count.

For those who know me well, I am an avid fan of The Ouendan and Elite Beat Agents series, and I will be playing a few songs on usteam tonight out of boredom, just to show people how the game is played and what it is like.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/tradraws

If you don't know what Ouendan is, then come see what it is perhaps? :B


Edit: Its over

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VAk.....e=channel_page

It's epic, can't stop listening to it.

Edit: The Mp3 because I am such a pirate. :c - http://www.4shared.com/file/9634801.....o_-_Ocean.html

So, someone made me make a Steam account, even though I don't really have any games at all for it and such. x:

Was wondering if anyone else had it and wanted to add me on it?

Steam ID: Trauron

Yeah, that's it. :v

Well, I now have a camera that actually works properly and you can actually see things with, so if anyone is interested in watching me sketch a bit, feel free to come and watch.

I may start slow, but my pace should pick up as I go along. Suggestions for what I am drawing or what I should draw would be nice as well.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/tradraws

Sorry for the repetitive journal posting. :B


Edit: Done

Yes, I like Aerosmith. :v
I also like the song, She Sells Sancutary.

Also, I found a game recently that is rather new called Rhythm Heaven for the DS, it is quite fun, you guys should go buy it and check it out. :B

So, I wasn't feeling well earlier, at about this time in the afternoon (2:30), so I went to sleep...kept waking up a few times feeling worse until about 9:30, then as I get up out of bed...

FWOMMPHH.....Power goes out.

So, up till about a half hour ago, I've been banging my head against the wall since A. Most of my hobbies involves needing power, B. Some drawings I tried to make were not turning out and C. My DS's batteries are shot, not to mention I dropped it before going to sleep (slipped out of my hands, wasn't paying enough attention), and part of the hinge broke off. x:

Today wasn't a good day for me, hopefully tomorrow it won't be so bad. :B


Also, I TOLD YOU THAT EVERYONE REPLIES TO THE RAWRING JOURNALS. :|

Really should stop making those, since that is all people seem to like making comments on. :v

In a very rawrish manner at that. :v


Simply put, I'm just making stupid journals for attention, because the only journals people seem to reply to are these kinds. :B

Going to watch Igor in a few minutes, then maybe go downstairs to play GH3 for a bit since I haven't played that in ages....then uhhh, I'll sit here again being my usual bored and tablet penless self. o:

What a day I have planned.~

Also,  crome is feeling depressed, go cheer him up!

If you have me on AIM, you've prob seen the smaller version of it, but I made a bigger one to use for FA, since it is awesome.~

Seriously, watch the whole series of these, its hilarious, especially really late at night/early in the morning.

If that isn't amusing, then look at this -

Creative title, I know.

Recently, it has been brought to my attention that a fair amount of people who I thought to be friends with and such, stopped thinking the same themselves due to my recent slump I've been in, among other things such as people starting to think I'm pulling a brokenwing with people just to get art.

Regarding the second part, its like getting punched in just the right spot under your ribs to knock the wind out of you. People are free to think what they want to think, but if they are going to make judgments on a person's characteristics and in this case, how much art I receive from people, then I'd like to ask those people to stop bull shitting.
I'm sure many of the people who I still manage to be able to talk to (there isn't many) would agree that I don't lie or just act out actually caring, though that number is insignificant now compared to the people who likely think the opposite at this point.

I assure you, if that was my motive to get art, I wouldn't be telling people I don't want it, left right and center.


This journal isn't about my E-penis size, or how much of an ego I appear to have or how many people talk to me.
I know a few people think of me as a whiny ass teenager who doesn't do shit with his life, and that is mostly true, but there is nothing I can particularly do right now with how everything is right now these days. I'm in a small town with only 3 places that aren't family run that I could possibly work at, that all refused me not too long ago. The job market just isn't in my favor right now at all for where I'm living, doesn't help that those places have a mass majority of female workers instead of males. x:

I know I'm likely making excuses here in some people's eyes, but thats just the way it is, some of us don't have it as easy as others.

I know it has been about 6 months now since I've landed myself back here in this dump, and It is likely to last much longer then that. I miss those days during the time I was gone that I actually didn't feel like being stuck in the house, and wanting to go to friend's houses, instead of being stuck in the same room for days on end to avoid getting yelled at or something.

I'm just a failure I guess, born and raised as one, I'm fairly lazy I admit when I don't feel it is worth the effort, and I'm just plain anti-social/shy in person, not to mention I have anger problems sometimes, its just the way I was raised, is all.

I'm more or less venting at this point for if your still actually reading this, my intention isn't really to complain, but it appears that its turned to that anyways..

Back on track though, I just don't want people saying thinks like previously mentioned about me, or people thinking I'm a total dick for whatever reason they come to think that, if you go as far as thinking I'm Emo, then get real. I'm no suicidal kid who hates life, who would rather cut his wrists instead of doing something else.

Since I don't want to seem like I'm whining anymore, I want anyone who has a serious opinion about anything mentioned above, to leave an opinion if you wish, and I'll do my best to reply to it.

I hope I can move out again sometime soon in the future, I really do, this 6 months really has turned me into a totally different person then I was not too long ago.

People with my messenger: If you poke at me, I'll try better to reply if I can, and tell you I'm not in the mood otherwise.

Man, it always feels like there are people laughing at me in the background when I post things like this. x:



I apologize to anyone who has read this far and feels like they wasted their time listening to my 'whining', 'excuses' and my 'bullshit'.

~Tra

Not because people were not interested, I just realized how horrific my camera's quality is when drawing in my sketch book, I couldn't even see any lines. :\

Could use the other camera in the house, but I'd have to snatch it while no one is looking and I'd prob get in trouble. Lulz. :|

Oh well, another time then.

Well, I was thinking of trying to traditionally draw a few things while on air sometime soon since I recently lost my ability to use my tablet pen since it well...died, though many of you claim to not know that when I bring it up. >>

Anyways, I know I'm not that great and my camera isn't of the greatest quality either, but maybe having people watch me and give me advise while I draw would help me get a bit better, along with people being supportive of what I may be sucking at, it'd help my artistic ego a bit.

Most of my traditional art equipment isn't around anymore since I've misplaced most of it during my move out and back in but I'll work with what I have.

If anyone is interested, let me know, I may do it tonight even if enough people are up to watching. >>

None of this is important at all.


Just the usual sitting here playing the occasional game and talking to people, not much else.

Also, apparently me eating dinner when I wake up isn't allowed now, sometimes I nap and I don't get waken up for dinner, so I make something when I do wake up, but now I am not allowed to do that apparently, just some way to force me to not be nocturnal I suppose.

Back on topic though, thinking about trying my hand at traditional drawing again, I doubt I'll get very far since I am rather impatient at times.

Otherwise, like I said, boredom is constant here, my sanity is questionable, my health is good at least. :v

</update>

Its screwed.

My pen kind of died a week ago (acts like its clicking when its an inch from the tablet), been asking my dad to look at it like, every day of the week except this weekend since he isn't here, keeps saying he will look at it soon. He is generally good at electronics like these, he fixed it last time when it was completely dead.

Either way, I think its basically just the end of my Pen's life regardless, and that really sucks as I still have no job and no way of getting one really right now, the job market just isn't good enough right now to even keep a job for the most part.

Man, shit like this always happens when I ACTUALLY WANT TO DRAW. This has happened several times where I've wanted to draw, but something stupid or irritating happens to prevent such to happening, man, I have really bad Karma in that area...

Either way, the two things I owe, I'll will likely have to redraw them traditionally and scan them, and wait until I am able to color efficiently again, I hope you don't mind dranslin and reddd.

Either way, enough of my pointless ranting, if you want more of it though, just keep up with my twitter. :v


Edit: I forgot to mention, my double click button on my pen doesn't stay in now either. o;
Eraser side has the same problem as the pen nib side as I also failed to mention.

I've been nuking a lot of journals recently, so if anyone posted one that they wanted me to see recently, please point it out to me.

I'm done my offline Hiatus now, to tell you guys the truth, I have actually been appearing offline and just talking to people when I feel like talking and such, it feels better then just being online all day and not having anything to talk to, to anyone who happens to poke you.

Also, I post at my twitter constantly if you want some more of the extra info about what I am doing or whats going on. Its very useful.

I'll be offline on everything besides Skype for a little while, don't feel up to talking to anyone or having my messengers on if I don't talk to or get talked to by anyone who happens to be online, simple as that. :v

Feel free to refrain from commenting on this if you want, I just wanted to let people know without going through everyone on my contacts to tell them.


Somewhat on topic, I've been in a bit of a slump over the last few days, I get them every few weeks, I'll be over it sooooon..


Uh...I guess that is it. Nothing else to say. :|
