I just wanted to let you know that "Woolgathering"'s hiatus MIGHT be ending soon. The artist I commissioned to draw the artwork of Ellen Harrison that I wanted got in contact with me today; there's still a few people ahead of me on the list (and it was a long list), but after two long years they're finally nearing the point where they're ready to get it worked on.


I doubt I'll be able to devote a lot of focus to it right now; I'm currently working on "Manehattan's Lone Guardian" at present, and I am terrible at splitting my focus between multiple projects. However, I'll let you know when the artist has finished their work. And if I'm able to resume Woolgathering, y'all will be the first to know.

Don't know if too many people are going to read this, but I may as well put it out there. I'm currently working on a crossover between MLP: FiM and Mega Man Zero. I don't know if I'm going to ever post it here or not, so I might as well at least try to get the word out.


The general gist of the story is that after Fairy Leviathan gets caught in Omega's destruction at the end of Zero 3, she ends up in the city of Manehattan, Equestria. Shenanigans, both humorous and serious, ensue. I wrote a chapter completely on a whim back in August, it got some positive reception, and I figured "Alright, let's see how far I can go with this" and kept on writing.


If you feel like it's something you might be interested in reading, you're more than welcome to. The link's at the bottom of this journal entry. Ciao mein, everyone!

For those of you watching my account, I recently uploaded Chapter 7 of Zero Context: Taking Out the Trash. However, for reasons unbeknownst to me, the chapter is not showing up in my gallery, and all my efforts to make it show up have been thwarted by way of the options not being available for some reason. It IS available in the group I run (you can't miss it; it has "Zero Context" right in the name), so if for some reason you're curious enough to read it, just scroll down to the bottom of my page and click.


I have to wonder why it's doing this. I mean, I have it marked as Mature due to "Moderate" use of violence, but should that by itself really be enough? It wasn't doing this with any of my other chapters. When something similar happened with a different chapter I was at least able to locate it by running a search on my account, but it's not working this time...


ADDENDUM: Figured out what the problem was. I had someone else's image, in this case a "demotivational poster" of Anubis Markets, placed in the story proper. That problem has been fixed.

I'm the slightest bit frustrated. I've been trying to better my drawing ability recently, but it's getting to the point where pencil and paper just isn't cutting it due to how long it takes me to fix any errors. I think it's long past time I upgraded from physical to digital media, as it seems to afford much more flexibility.


(Yeah, yeah, I know, 'about time' and all that. Cut me some slack; reading's my thing, not drawing.)


The thing is, I'm not in the know as to what graphics tablets work best or whether any of them are compatible with my art program of choice (namely, Paint dot Net), and I don't have the time to do any serious digging. Would anyone out there happen to have any suggestions?


Much obliged.

The rare and elusive Yukari Yakumo was sighted in my house playing computer games. And here I thought having her interrupt my gameplay was bad enough...


But in all seriousness, someone here at DA was nice enough to depict Yukari playing The Hand of Fate for me, and I'm using the art that resulted as the series' intro/outro card.

So if you like what you see, feel free to visit JetZero's gallery and browse around. Take it from me---there's some very nice art over there!
