I was shocked to learn today that Giger passed away just a day ago as a result of a fall. Most of you probably know that H.R. Giger is one of my favorite artists and a major influence on my work. (for those who don't know, check this out: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.R._Gig… and then watch Alien 
)
I discovered Giger when I was 12 when I found his book Biomechanics in the Ventura, CA Barnes and Noble and was blown away by his universe of weird detail. I spent years after that collecting his books and aspiring to become him.
For a long time I was a huge fanboy and wanted to meet him, now I never will![Llama Emoji-08 (Crying) [V1]](https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/db95d15b-8c0c-4bb6-b743-1beb61737925/d6tyqh6-42253eab-5b58-4ebf-8ddd-582794ad87ce.gif?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7InBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcL2RiOTVkMTViLThjMGMtNGJiNi1iNzQzLTFiZWI2MTczNzkyNVwvZDZ0eXFoNi00MjI1M2VhYi01YjU4LTRlYmYtOGRkZC01ODI3OTRhZDg3Y2UuZ2lmIn1dXSwiYXVkIjpbInVybjpzZXJ2aWNlOmZpbGUuZG93bmxvYWQiXX0.cQ8EfzXEPkwXLaUd2a1Kuv_iHw_U8Fyku09ldKpBBVQ)

His influence can be seen all over DA, for example in these
Anyhow, that's all take a minute to remember HRG and the impact he had on art and our consciousness

HUGE DEADLINE - NEWS - JOURNAL - FEATURES
:dummy: Thing number one is my group which is still here, despite the annoying fact that groups look different now. We got a HUGE deadline soon So please please bring your pulpy best writings and arts for the 50th issue. There have been some stressy work weeks in recent times, and my car, Akpo, needed some attention, so I took a 4 day weekend in hopes of getting the car fixed (cheaply) and getting some writing in. Weekend is coming to a close and I dropped $427 (with $900 of suggested repairs on the back burner), I managed to hurt my foot walking to pick up the car (which meant I didn't get out to the gym after), and the writing wasn't quite what I'd hoped. Still, another series is complete and closing chapters will be coming in the next few weeks. :dummy: Please dole out some faves and comments and watches to the talent folk who are featured here! Who knows? You might end up featured sometime! We are getting into the nitty gritty

We got a DEADLINE - Snow - Features - Hello!
Okay! I know it's been way too long! I am just 6 weeks into my promotion and it is plenty of work, believe me! Winter went and got fairly mild, but then, on Thurday, we got a slurpee of heavy wet snow dumped on us in the night and it made roads into slush... which was all not that bad... until I got to work and the building got stuck on partial power. There are generators for the building but whoever was operating those might have had no idea what they were doing, since the power kept flickering out again like every 2 minutes, so we did not get a ton of work done. :eager: You know perfectly well that we got a deadline coming up for so submit plz: :la: We need them arts and stories to get this issue to be awesome! Featured here are talented human artists who deserve some fave-love and commenties, cuz they sink time and talent into the things they do. You guys should only fave human artists!
