Story
A few months ago, I was watching my first Speedpaint on Youtube which was of Brokenstar's Death. I really love Warriors and I thought it would be a good idea to film myself drawing it. It's my most popular speedpaint (for obvious reasons) and after someone commented on it saying how good it was, I thought about redoing it for a while. Then I finally got the idea to remake not only the picture, but also the speedpaint. But, then HyperCam 2, for whatever reason, crapped out on me. It would not open at all; the computer would act like it was loading, with the spinning wheel near the mouse cursor. And then, the wheel would disappear after about 5 seconds. I tried everything from scanning for viruses, to going to a restore point from a month earlier to even uninstalling and re-installing HC2, but it was no use. I tried HyperCam 3 and hated it; not only did it draw out the recording whenever I paused, but there were also black flashes whenever I played the recordings back. I only used it for one Speedpaint. Then I tried VSDC Free Screen Recorder, and it was just like HC2; preset commands to pause/resume and stop the recording, no long pauses in the video whenever I paused the recording. So I used it for the new picture and after recording, I went to Windows Movie Maker for editing... But then it crashed... and kept crashing. This was when I tried saving the video to wmv or mpg4 format. I wondered if it was a faulty codec or something, but just like HC2, nothing seemed to work. I tried with Vegas (both movie studio and pro) and it didn't shorten the video enough. So, yeah. I can't upload the speedpaint. I'm still frustrated about it to this day. :pissedoff:

But still, I'm glad I redrew the picture. I really didn't care for the whole fang sticking out, like Crookedstar's, in the old picture. And I have no freakin' idea why I did it in the first place.

And now, back to requests!  :typerhappy:
