So ...
I don't frequent the forum nearly as much I used to anymore ; but I do come back to visit/lurk from time to time. A few weeks back or so , I was looking at a thread that I posted in & noticed in the top right corner of my post : Join Date: Jul 2004.
Whoa. Had it really been ten years ago that I joined this forum & in so doing ... changed my life?! Ten years? Where did the time go?!
Upon further investigating my profile , I learned that the actual date I signed up was on July 6th. So me being me , I thought to myself , "Hmmm ... what would be a cool way to kinda commemorate this occasion that has ended up meaning so much to me personally?"
Then I realized that I had a bunch of old artwork that I've never shared w/you guys. Some of it was all done. Penciled. Inked. Complete. Filed away.
Other stuff was penciled ... but not yet inked ... & filed away nevertheless.
So what I've chosen to do to celebrate my ten years of being an official member here , is to finally finish up & ink those pieces that still needed inking , & every few days post a piece of never-before-seen art for all of you to hopefully enjoy. The plan is to share ten pics ; one for every year. This community still means a great deal to me & has given me so much ; & this is just a small way for me to give back a little & say 'thanks'.
You'll notice that these pictures include my old screenname , TKLMAN ; & that I chose to keep on each one the original date/year that these pieces were drawn , as well.
So anyhoo , let's have at it ; shall we? This first one goes back to 2003! ... before I officially signed up & was still just a 'guest' on the forum! It depicts my interpretation of what must transpire up at the North Pole as Santa's out & about doing Santa-type things. As Mrs. Claus knows all too well : thems elves can't help themselves.
Comments are welcome! Enjoy!
