I´ve given up on waiting for it, I´m just going to continue my studies, -just started today another term-, and make the best time out of my day without having to resort to Maya. There´s a pretty graphic post that illustrates how I feel about it in the mods forum. Let´s just say it´s graphic.
I love watching you guys entries though, and if I have anything I might say to help out, I will.

What would you say is the best starter kit -you know pencils and such- a young fledgling artist like me should have? What do I need -equipment wise that is-? I mean things that I should always have around.
Could you take a pic of your workplace?
I can see something about your illustrations, and that is the fact that you rather enjoy making those, and I believe your environment has a lot to do with that. Perhaps a few words of wisdom mate?

He´s an illustrator, and one of the best at that.
<-- Remembers when he would go around SM´s IRC channel shouting "This hogwardspotter guy´s no noob!"

ADL- That sucks man... I am going to search for that post in the mod section... I was checking out your daily sketch section for a while and they were coming out really nice. I loved the eye/nose/mouth studies you were doing.
as far as a starter kit: all you need is a stack of paper and something that you can write with. Draw, draw, draw and draw some more. everyday try to learn something new. analyse everything you see. this way you will be able to draw what know not just what you see.
acquiring the knowledge is the hardpart, the rest is mechanics.
but if i could suggest one thing to have, it would be a lightbox or table. that is if you arent working digitally. I couldnt work without mine.
here is a shot of my very,very, very messy studio. I share an office with Ron Garney who draws XMen for marvel comics(he drew the Hulk for a while and designed those hulk-dogs in the movie)
My computer crap is nothing fancy. 1 monitor and its pretty small too. (I do have a video card that has two outputs though)
anyhoo, here is the mess--->

Would like to have a little artist corner at home, but there's lack of space for that at the moment...

that looks great.
i love the toad look!!
the only thing that looks kinda weird is that fold in that outer part of the stomach looks a bit to sharp ( i hope you understand what i mean)
but it really looks awesome, keep it up!!

..puts too much of a glare on my monitor .As for the toad, its amazing how you can get it looking like that with so little polys! Really looking good though! Maybe add a bit more definition in the legs, show that theres a calf there, and a kneecap. His sides lack lats.. so maybe add some merging into his arms. Other than that, wonderful work so far!
