androideyes.com - updates archive

29.10.2007 - Big changes ahead. From new year on, I'll have to pay for the hosting too - so far I've been paying only for the domain. That means I'm going to have my own e-mail address at androideyes.com and more space, so I'm going to celebrate it with a new design. I've already started two layouts in black (very cosmic-looking, with fractals and so. Blame it on my current sci-fi obsession), but now I'm working on an entirely new, pure and modern style in white. But the most important reason for rebuilding the site is to get rid of all those redundant things that have accumulated here during the two years of ae.com. Old pictures and pointless babbling will be mercilessly removed to make place for my masterpiece.

05.07.2007 - Comics news: I wanted to try an experimental page first, to find the right technique, but it turned out completely wrong. There's too much grey and it's too messy, not contrasting enough, the size should be A4, not A3, and the paper was really bad to draw at. It took far more time than I can afford to spend on a single page and I don't like the atmosphere of the picture - it isn't what I had on my mind at all. But it's in the gallery anyway.

09.06.2007 - Something new in the gallery. I really couldn't resist drawing this.

13.05.2007 - The same as always: a new webdesign I can't use yet because I have nothing to put there.

07.04.2007 - One new picture in the gallery. And I'm working on the (real) first page. (No, really. The sketch looks rather good so far...)

13.03.2007 - One new picture in the gallery. And I'm working on the (real) first page.

28.01.2007 - Big surprise: the first page of the comics is done! In fact it's not a real first page, but a coloured cover illustration for Act 1 - a scene I've had in my head since November. But it's a beginning anyway. It's stored in the *gallery/2006* until I reorganize the site (again).

12.01.2007 - Big surprise: no comics again. Well, I already broke my New Year resolution to draw at least one page per week... but it's all Mioumiou's fault, because she wanted me to do a survey of characters first. And it's still unfinished.

07.10.2006 - Hm. No comics yet, but the site has been reorganized a bit (again). Updated: *galleries/2006*, *galleries/classical* and *webdesign*. Also a new banner in *more*. In fact I originally intended to reverse the structure of the site and put the comics-archive on the index page - the black and white round picture on the top is the remnant of that idea. It simply works as a link to index.htm.

31.07.2006 - The new design is finished!

27.07.2006 - Just a quick little update: there are two new pictures in the gallery. Coming soon: an alternate desing for GA (finally, it's in white) and the first page of the comics.

02.07.2006 - I'm working on it. I really, really do. Meanwhile, I managed to upload some photos from my second comupter: *projects/postcards* and *technomax/where*.

31.05.2006 - It's been a long time... And there's actually nothing new (except for two images in the gallery). I've just modified the whole structure of the site a bit and added a new sub-section for the comics series I'm trying to draw. The links at it aren't working yet, I'm just testing the layout. Oh, well... I must force myself to work harder.

15.02.2006 - Wow! I made it! A new layout! I have even downloaded Mozilla to make sure the site will be displayed correctly, but there's still Netscape Navigator and Opera and god knows what else, so if you are using a different browser and there are some problems, please let me know. I also re-activated my old guestbook, because the one I've been using since December doesn't work. And I've abandoned my identity as invisibleink and decided to fully use my spare personality, Technomax. Mostly because whenever I want to register at some site, the username "invisbleink" is always already taken.

07.02.2006 - I 'm working on a new version of this layout. I can't stand this one anymore. I hate it. I also hate Mozilla, because it makes it look even worse. And I hate this set of emoticons; except this one, they are all so damn cheerful.

30.01.2006 - I'm being productive. *gallery/other* and *gallery/2005* updated. And I'm going to alter this layout again.

25.01.2006 - Three new pictures in the gallery, but I haven't created a new sub-section for 2006 yet, so they are in the 2005 folder. It's strange, but in my recent artwork I prefer using only black and white, even without grey... I should make something in colour again. Or maybe leave the illustrations and start drawing my comics.
Good news: finally, after a whole year, I managed to get Utena TV series! Thank you, Petsura!

08.12.2005 - I changed my mind about the new layout. I already started working on it, but then I decided it would be enough to adjust this one. There's also a new guestbook, I hope it works.

25.11.2005 - *gallery/other* updated... that was quick!

22.11.2005 - gallery and *projects/postcards* updated, and there's also a new self-portrait in *invisibleink/visible*. Currently I'm preparing a poster-calendar for 2006, working on a watercolor landscape painting for my mother and several other things. There may be even a new site layout... I'm quickly getting bored of this.
Note: the artwork of Bronze Restart 4 is even worse than in the 3rd chapter. I mean, Ozaki can do much better and this simply looks like she doesn't care anymore... No surprise, considering the story is going on for more than sixteen years with a plot that could be condensed in one volume. But still, I love Akihito.

23.10.2005 - an update! There are two new things in the gallery (another one coming soon, I promise), a new sub-section *projects/postcards* with a card I made for Candi Mao (and sent to China), a new website in the *webdesign* section, new links in *more* (including my new account at livejournal.com) and finally, a banner!

08.10.2005 - I have a new desktop wallpaper. It's beautiful. Hans Bollongier - Still life with flowers (detail)
Juxian was very nice about my illustration for her story, but her readers don't seem to appreciate it very much. To tell the truth, it didn't surprise me. Someone even wrote there that my illustration with Koji, Akihito and Hirose Nanjo reminded her of the Malfoys and Snape...

05.10.2005 - I planned to finish another thing or two (I'm currently working on four...) before another update, but at least that Bronze thing is done, so it's in the gallery. BTW - I started reading Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley yesterday. In German (uh!). But it's an amazing novel, especially considering that the author was only 18 when she wrote it.

26.09.2005 - slowly, gently... it's turning into a blog. But I've just downloaded the 3rd chapter of Bronze Restart from www.onamichan.com and I must announce to the whole world: the artwork is so going DOWNHILL! Sad thing, considering that it were the beautiful drawings which had initially attracted me to this series. But speaking about the plot, or what there is of it, there is finally some surprising twist. At least for a Bronze maniac, which I am. Although I'm not sure how long it will last... now, with Akihito dead...

21.09.2005 - androideyes.deviantart.com - I've registered! There's nothing you couldn't see here, but visting my DAsite would improve my statistics. Oh, and Candi has a gallery there too: candide.deviantart.com
BTW, I'm working on another illustration for Juxian Tang's story - this time Bronze!

06.09.2005 - My very own domain - finally, it's done! Moved, fully operating, newly organized, with a new layout! And is there actually something new...? Find it yourself
