I'm big in Russia

[Vladimir Putin's LJ]

Or at least on the online Russian political wank communities.

As some of you may know, I doodle a bit. I doodle Putins, I doodle Medvedevs, I doodle them diddling each other. Well, not really, but all my scribbles are gay as hell. You can see how true this is IN MY THREAD (SUBTLE PLUG)!

Anyway, I put all my drawings on deviantArt and a couple of threads and pretty much forget about them. So you can probably imagine I was surprised to get a private message on dA thanking me for my Russian political pictures, and telling me there was a whole community dedicated to things like that.

In short, I got invited to join the site (it's pretty tightly-knit, probably because free speech isn't really a hot thing in Russia), have been translating things with Babelfish and found things I'd drawn and written, translated into Russian. I was surprised but very flattered. One of my stories had been re-written in Russian and goddamn, they're real poets, the thing was a lot nicer. So I re-wrote their version in English. A translation of a translation. Oy.

So yeah, this pretty much made my month. I thought I'd throw this out there.

I wish Russians liked me.

Hehe, congratulations. You should become a professional cartoonist, seriously.

On another forum I visit, your Rainbow Stalin and Hitler drawing has become a meme of sorts. :P

well, I'm sure Steve Bell's greatest work wasn't done when he was a teenager. give yourself a few more years and you'll easily be as good as them.

Fire Emblem Planet. it's a nice little fansite, probably a bit bigger than TCoD in terms of memberbase, but that's mainly because all the competition's died. :P
