Books I read

Wed Nov 18, 2009, 1:34 PM
So about a week ago I instantaneously read 2 books within a weeks time frame. They were kind of cool (obviously they would have to be for me to read them so fast), but ultimately they tore me up inside. Because like I said in my last entry about why I hate reading sometimes all the interesting characters died. It really sucked because the first book I read built up the characters and then killed them off within the first quater of the second book. See, no one knows how to write books that I like reading. The books in question that I speak of are "Tides of Blood" and "Empire of Blood" from the Minotaur Wars Trilogy. I didn't bother reading the first book because the local library didn't have it. The thing that made me read the books really fast was the fact that most of the characters were all minotaurs which is pretty cool for a fantasy book, but the author really doesn't know how to make me like it. The main character was a moron and impossible to like. I guess the one thing I could say about the books that was interesting was this whole bizzare religion thing that was tossed in there. It was actually turned out to be somewhat of a faith conversion story which I totally didn't expect comeing. So yeah, I kind of liked them, but #%*@ did the author really #@%& me off.

My, but you've got some awesome art here :) I especially love all your Kung-Fu takes on different animals. I'm a fan of fighting games, so crossing that fighting concept with anthro characters is always cool to me ;)

What's also interesting to me is how you really maintain the animal part of your characters. It's something Bluth-like, honestly, to keep as much of the animal anatomy and figure as possible and yet still give them human qualities in personality and attire. Makes for a unique look :) Keep it up!

*sighs with happines* I've been waiting for the day someone would make the comment you just made. What you just said is exactly how I try to make my anthros. "keep as much of the animal anatomy and figure as possible and yet still give them human qualities in personality and attire."
Thank you so much... That's the nicest comment I've ever had.
