Description Last night I had a crazy dream

A wish was granted just for me

It could be for anything

I didn't ask for money

Or a mansion in Malibu

I simply wished, for one more day with you


One more day

One more time

One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied

But then again

I know what it would do

Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you


First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl

Then I'd unplug the telephone

And keep the TV off

I'd hold you every second

Say a million I love you's

That's what I'd do, with one more day with you


One more day

One more time

One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied

But then again

I know what it would do

Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you


Leave me wishing still, for one more day

Leave me wishing still, for one more day

With you


This peice was done as a kind of thank-you for being so inspiring... for Atomic Chocograph.

I may... but I'm not very confident about it nor particularly good at it. So probably not... but I may.

And thanks, for appreciating it.

Made me think on the Etoli and AtomicChocograph's works. They inspired, somehoe, my fanfic, the one I'm posting here...
But yours have a great sense of emotion, like a soldier departing to Afghanistan, or something, but in a sci-fi scenario

Your linework is also very good! Your drawing is very good indeed

Hey, thanks! Etoli and AC are inspirations to me, too. Etoli especially. I have one of her pictures up on my wall in a polished oak frame... "three seasons"... it's her absolute BEST piece ever.

S7alker117 In reply to AardvarkEcho [2010-03-18 22:29:21 +0000 UTC]

Really?

Cool!

Etoli's work is simply amazing! Her drwings have a gret mix of cartoonish and childhood innocence that makes one so happy just to look at it! I love how she draws the eyes, specially.
Her writing is als very good, "Covenants Daughter" is simply amazind! Tha same goes to AC and her fanfic too.

But I'm interested in seeing more of your work, too!
Its really nice to be able to apreciate the work of so many wonderful artists

I have Halo Fanfiction, too! Book 5 of the Hammer of Thor Chronicles is about to appear any minute now, soon as I get that loaded and up.

Thank you so much for being so appreciative! You and people like you make it worth it for artists like myself, Etoli and AC!

I will check it!
Nice to have something cool to read
And the fans (at least the talented ones ) can come with so many wonderful ideias. Sometimes I sense the official cannon only scratches the surface of the entire potential of the Haloverse!

Oh, and you can also check my own fanfic

I'm publishing it there, in paralel with the publication here on DA. My story is a little strange though... But I hope you like it

I will send some feedback about your soon, if you'll like it .)

Wow, Portugese! That's awesome. I'll definitely try to look more closely at this as I go along. And yes, feel free to review however you wish! There's a special button just for it, on FF.net.

(for not being your mother tongue, you do speak pretty fair English, btw)

Thanks a lot
I'm really trying to become better and better in english... And maybe learning a third tongue along the way

And I find this cool, this thing of knowing and talking with people from all around the world. It really opens our horizons, doesnt it?

AardvarkEcho In reply to S7alker117 [2010-03-22 03:04:50 +0000 UTC]

LOL more languages?? Careful! You might wind up like Doctor Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1!!

[link]

He's got something like 47 in his brain or something. The actor is amazing, the way he portrays that character.

Yeah, broader horizons! I recently started talking to a guy in Holland, and his midnight happens around my six in the evening, so it's hard to catch one another on chat, but HOWDY his English is hilarious! We have great fun together.

S7alker117 In reply to AardvarkEcho [2010-04-26 00:04:39 +0000 UTC]

Yeah!

I liked that character a lot. I identified a lot with him, dont know why

Yeah, talking with people who have difficulty using the language we are talking is usually funny, if we can mantain our sense of humor.
I have a great friend that is from the Philipines. Now she as a good control of the portuguese language, but still, sometimes she cant say some words, and we start laughing, and then she make up words and jokes, and we all laugh. Great times indeed. I love to visit her and her husband (he's portuguese). We talk and laugh, its a good way to spend a evening after a tirsome day

Very nice. Again with family.
Love the poem to. I find its better to read it out loud to yourself than in you head because it makes me understand the piece better and have more emotion.
5/5

AardvarkEcho In reply to IystTsunree [2010-02-24 20:17:31 +0000 UTC]

hmm, been a while since I seen this one... if the poem is "one more day" then you can find it at Itunes, I'm sure, cos it's a country song. If not, then... Gah, I'd have to go and look to be sure.

These pictures are old old old.
Thanks for loving them!

He should probably take his mandible guards off before kissing her

AardvarkEcho In reply to Umopsyndrome [2010-01-13 05:22:10 +0000 UTC]

LOL Yeah, probably, but he's fixing to plop the helmet on the top and run aboard before the ship takes off...

She's pretty plump with his kid, though, so I doubt she really cares. That she got a kiss at all will probably lift her whole day.

Do you have the old file?

I actually liked that one better because the roughness of the background really emphasizes the two characters. This one, they're sorta lost in the crowd.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AardvarkEcho In reply to KerenskysHope [2008-10-17 04:19:05 +0000 UTC]

Unfortunately no... and since the picture itself has been inked, I can never retreive it. I did notice how the background suddenly came forward on me... and I didnt like it. I may have to go through and blur the crap out of it all to reestablish the 'foreground' feeling that I had acheived with the pencil.

Goddess I hate ink.

Aiiie, it's gorgeous! Gorgeous technically because of the nice linework, extra detail, figures and composition, but also simply gorgeous because of the subject itself!

It's so touching... just looking at it gives me all sorts of emotions :3 (And a really great title to boot, with the lyrics being a nice touch as well)

Just wow! Thank you so much for sharing this! ♥ It's inspirational in itself.

(giggles in glee) Wow! You really liked it! I'm so happy! I just love your style, and how you draw them, I always feel so inadequate... but I had this awesome idea after browsing your gallery and I thought it would be really cool if I could just find a way to say thanks for just being such a wonderful artist!

Once I get the lines all cleaned up and the depth repaired (after the scanner blurred the crap out of it)I'll repost it so if you like, you can take down a copy and color it!
