Tutorials and Resources









:bulletblue: How do I get the custom box look on my dA page? First you need to have a dA premium subscription. Having that now you have access to source codes provided by other lovely deviants. ^_^ These are the ones I used.





:bulletblue: As with the custom boxes, a custom journal is a way to make you feel more you and express yourself. We can even pretty up our galleries with some CSS. These are the codes for that.






:bulletblue: For those interested in how I go about my Sculpey models I have a short tutorial/walkthrough series >>



:bulletblue: When it comes to art I've pretty much been self-taught, but without a doubt there have been tutorials done by people here who have made a huge difference. Here are the ones I found very useful.







Live and Learn!
Progress, not Perfection.


Many thanks to all the deviants for these resources! :heart:



Go get Goblyn'd

Journal Entry: Sun Apr 22, 2012, 8:44 AM




My pal :iconxxsmarsxx: has an ongoing series called Goblyn and it is amazing. I've talked about it before, but this time he wants to make it real and get books and merch printed so he has a kickstart program going. All the details here in his journal:

[link]

It is a series I think everyone should check out. The story and art and the format is unlike anything you've come across before, and it's highly entertaining! Not just entertaining, but you can see as you read along he's got a real interesting story plot being weaved. The way things have come together in some cases rocked me and always keep me coming back for more. He isn't afraid of a little realistic gore, but it's not overly hardcore.

Donations start at $1.00 and you get something for that, and you get even more the more you put in. I know I am stoked and I'm gonna put in a pretty penny when I got some pretty pennies. Or I wanna say.....cashin. lol that's a Goblyn related joke.

Anyway, that's all for this plug! :iconmumu-plz:

Oh and me. No......still no art. I've been on the receiving end of stressed to the max, so I haven't been getting anything done. I'm in the workings of just getting it all straightened out so I can actually relax, and feel good. Then try my hand at making something again. Like, I left my job amongst other things. Keeping calm has been my main point of focus. 50% success rate there. -_-

So eventually!  Maybe in May! Hey yeah, ya know what? I think my goal is for May to be an awesome month! April is already close to ending and it has almost done me in, I'm gonna get May real good. I'll start it off with some roast duck I think.

C'mon May! Let's do this!  



G'day,

Ren :tea:

GENERAL »

:bulletblue: Hello! Welcome to my Teahouse. I am Rennard, you can call me Ren if you like. ^_^

I'm fairly busy with the real world, but I do check out the place daily. So drop by and say hi!

I like tea, cats, sleeping, reading, studying the mind, exploring holistic health, old school video games and the quiet life.

ART »

I work in a variety of mediums and styles, like pencil, clay, digital painting, site design, pixel art, flash animation and some 3d modeling. I'm not too predictable when it comes to my work. I create fanart, I create original. Whatever my mood dictates.

Oh yeah! If you are into models/sculptures this is the place to learn about doing them sort of lol. Check out my tutorial section for those!

Please enjoy a cup of tea. It's on the house. :iconteaheeplz:

Hello! I wanted to let you know that I featured your tutorials in the article Introduction to Polymer Clay written for Project Educate. I love the result, what you achieved is amazing and that you're willing to help others and teach your techniques is so generous ^^
