A long overdue post (with art and setup 3.0)
GrumpyTurtle \| 2:50 PM on 07.20.2009	18 comments

Egad it's been awhile since I posted a blog. I'll be honest, I burnt myself out, I took on way too much art in a short time and overloaded. It was quite awhile before I even wanted to hold a pencil again. But I think I'm back, and I'll try and update with art at least semi regularly.

Also things got a bit topsy turvy, my schedule switched to mornings, so my body was totally out of wack there for awhile... I was... Quite grumpy.
But all is right with the world now, and I'll try and get the story I was going to draw back on track, as well as other fan art, now that my brain is working again that is.

As I stated in my last blog, I was going to try and get a get story going, with the murder of Tingle, and the mystery of who done it. Who ever will solve it? Professor Layton that's who. So here's the next image in that saga... Sorry there's only one.

Link explains to the Professor that even though it was his sword in Tingle's back, it couldn't have been him. He pawned his sword so he could get his debilitating fairy addiction fix.
(large version here)

I think I'll take it in a new direction. We'll make this kind of like choose your own adventure...
If you'd like to see the Professor interview the pawn shop owner let me know.
OR
If you'd like to see the Professor talk to Tingle's fellow street walkers, say so.
The most votes will be the next drawing!

Also. I updated my room a bit, so it's more nerdy then ever!

My whole new shelf, thanks Ikea! I'll hopefully never have to visit you again.

I'll probably post a better blog at some point showing it and my collection off once I feel like my game room is as good as it's gonna get, but right now, I'm happy with this.

Also, Funktastic, I haven't forgotten about you, I'll be sending your stuff shortly, sorry it's taken so long, I'll be sure and throw some extra stuff in there for you.

Finally, thanks for looking, hope I'll be as stable as I was a while ago!
Later all.

Char Aznable

Hey man, welcome back! I was just wondering where you went to, and I missed checking out your artwork. I'm looking forward to seeing this murder mystery unravel.

Aurain

Nice set up.

I can't see the PS1 goodness though =(

Bulkmailer

It seems like it's been forever since you last posted. Nice setup.

GrumpyTurtle

@Aurain, my PS1 has been in the hands of a friend for a while now. But if you want to see my PS1 collection go back through my blogs and find my last setup post.

@Hoborg
It's an HD-TV, I've had it for awhile, so I honestly don't remember how many inches it is.

Diverse

God damn, has it really been two months since you last made a post? Time sure does fly.

Aurain

Ahh, I didn't know you'd covered your PS1 stuff Grumpy, Thanks for telling me. :D

Solgrim

*Looks into this Turtlebeach Headset.*

de BLOO

Great setup.

Also why isn't SF:IV in your collection? FOR SHAME.

I should get to organizing my stuff.

GrumpyTurtle

@de bloo
I've been too broke to justify the price of the game and the stick. There's no way I could play with the 360's dpad.

I MISSED YOU!!!!

Puppy Licks

Tubatic

Welcome back!!

Killer setup! I dream one day of my man-cave and a similar generation spanning console layout.

solidgoomba

Woot! Grumpy is back, though I haven't been on the computer much this summer so at least I haven't been missing anything.

As for the story I'd have to say talk to the street walkers.

Looking forward to seeing whatever you come up with!
