Calling All Wolf Lovers!

Hi everyone!

Today I am writing with much anger and sorrow. I love wolves and hate hunting them. This article in the Outdoor Life February 2011 addition is very sorrowful for me. Here I have posted the article.

Crying Wolf
Article by Brian McCombie

"There was a significant interest here in Idaho in the hunt continuing," says Ed Mitchell, spokesperson for Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG), "and we were expecting pretty strong tags sales for a 2010 hunt."
More wolf hunts, though, went into limbo in August 2010, when a US Federal District Court formally reinstated federal ESA protections for wolves in the Northern Rockies, due to lawsuits brought brought by animal-rights and anti-hunting groups.
While that still left much day-to-day management to the states, reinstating ESA protections stopped any public hunting or trapping.

Local Economics Suffer (excerpt)
The blockage to public wolf hunting is a shame. IDFG sold more than 30,000 wolf hunting licenses for it's very first hunt, generating nearly a half-million dollars in revenue. That hunt opened on September 1, 2009 and ended on March 30,2010. In all, 188 wolves were taken.

Fingers Crossed
More wolf hunts? Not impossible. Montana is petitioning the feds for greater wolf management authority, while Western legislators have promised to find a way to give wolf control to the states.

Well, now that you read most of the article, can you see what I mean? Why do people hate wolves so much? What have they done to us?
We can stop wolf hunts. Work with me and we can find a way to stop all hunting FOREVER.

First Hunt

Hi everyone!

Good news! My brother went on his first hunt yesterday and caught a doe! Yay! He tells me that the moment he pulled the trigger, the deer fell dead. A direct hit!
Anyway, this was also Arrow's first hunt. I will post that up in the writer's page soon. She did really great, because she is already an elite!
That Arrow pic I was working on will be up SOON. I have been so busy with school and stuff and I just started lagging. It will be up either TODAY or TOMORROW. I promise!

Luv the Black Hearts!

Busy Busy!

Hi everyone!

Yes, I am still alive! Sorry I was not on for like...4 days! I was busy with school and my website.
Anyway, I was just wanting to say that the book The Complete Idiot's Guide To: Graphic Novels is a great book to start you off. Thinking of making a graphic novel? Get that book!

Luv the Black Hearts!

What's A Graphic Novel About?

Hi everyone!

Today is Saturday and I'm HAPPY about it! No school until Monday!
Anyway today I wanted to fill you in on some updates. Arrow needs another fix up today and she will be posted. I am also going to do Lightrun.
I wanted to talk about what a graphic novel is about. A graphic novel is a novel...in graphic form! The novel has to tell a story as a novel would but you must graphics. It does make it a bit more complicated.
What's the point of a graphic novel? I think the point of a graphic novel is to engage the readers more. When there are snappy pictures and cool looking words, yeah! That will make more people want to read it.
So in creating a graphic novel, think about why you want people to read it. Good Luck!

Luv the Black Hearts!

Dedication, Dedication, Dedication!

Hi everyone!

I have been busy with school and stuff but I managed to fit in some time to blog here.
I was thinking last night about how important it is to be dedicated in your work. Without dedication, you will easily lose hope and quit. The thing about a graphic novel is it needs time and dedication. Dedication is a huge thing, as I learned. It takes a lot of time to do a great job on a graphic novel. It could take years. But never lose hope and always remember to be dedicated.
Here are some things that help me to be dedicated to my graphic novel in process:
1. I try to draw a wolf everyday and practice that wolf.
2. I write down a bit of the story everyday
3. I look at other anime wolf drawings everyday

By drawing my wolves each and everyday it keeps me busy and focused on what I am doing. Writing down the story helps me to keep it straight in my head. Looking at the other anime wolves lets me see what my drawings could be if I stay dedicated.
So dedication is a huge factor!

Anyway, I have been on my Twitter a little bit so go check it out by clicking the link! Check out my website too!

Luv the Black Hearts!

Please Forgive Me!

Hi everyone!

I am so very sorry that I have not posted in forever! I wish I could be on more but I have school and homework and all that. So please forgive me for not posting at all!
I have been modifying Arrow a lot and she looks pretty cool, but I am still fixing her up. I also decided that some of my wolves, like Lightrun, won't have that hair on their heads. I drew Lightrun. I have to upload her soon.
Again I am so very sorry that I haven't been posting. I will post tomorrow for sure!

Luv the Black Hearts!

Epic Arrow Drawing

Hi everyone!

I did an EPIC Arrow drawing yesterday. She was awesome! Totally awesome. I will scan her to here soon. Sorry that yesterday I was not here. I was at my grandma's. I had a lot of fun with my cousin. I also created a new character Lypsy (Lip-sea). He looks cool.
This is a pretty anime wolf that I found online. I like her.

Creating a Graphic Novel

Hi everyone!

Sorry for the late post. I was busy doing things with my family. I just quickly needed to post.
Today I wanted to talk about what I have learned in my experience of creating a graphic novel. 1). Creating a graphic novel takes more time than you think! There are so many steps you have to take to be successful. 2). Getting a story in your head takes a good chunk of time. You have to revise the story. I learned that it is best to write down your story in novel form first. 3). Digital editing takes work. Don't expect to have a professonal looking picture of your character done in an hour. It takes a while to have a nicely done anime or any character.

So I hope that gives you some ideas on how to start if you want to. Just remember, never give up!

Luv the Black Heart!

Updating...Updating and School

Hi everyone!

School is coming up again real soon. I won't be able to post as much because of homework and blah...grrr. I am not looking forward to losing summer.
I am updating my characters, especially Arrow. She has a brand new look that is pretty cool. I can't wait to post her!
I am also looking at BBA YouTube movies and I am making a Black Heart Wolves YouTube that has all the characters drawn by me. And the Requiem for a Dream theme song. It will be cool.
As you can see, the blog look is updated to a more colorful look. I like this one much better. Give me feedback though!
Yesterday (as we hit the lucky 300 with this blog!) I was at a party to meet the new Youth Pastor of out church. It was soooo much fun. We went swimming in the lake and me and my friend Kara didn't bring our suits so we just went in with our clothes! It was great!
Anyway here's a pic of a BBA a wolf that I found. I like it.

Luv the Black Hearts!
