Week Seven, Day Six

I had every intention of painting Doc Brown today but it just didn't happen. I don't know what was up. Maybe I just need a break from this kind of painting for a bit. Anyway, I slapped this together.

short story status: buzz buzz

Week Seven, Day Five

Biff's stupid plaid shirt murdered me. It really just... murdered me. Butt head. Also I promise his fist looked that wonky in my reference.

Say hi to your mom for me

Short Story Status: poomp

Week Seven, Day Four

Lorraine! Her hair and mouth were a killer. PS I've updated George, have a looksee

that is your name, isn't it? Calvin Klein? It's written all over your underwear.

Short Story Status: I wrote some junk last night

Week Seven, Day Three

For those of you have talked to me in the even slightly recent past will know that I'm going through a big Back to the Future obsession right now. I decided to channel this in a positive manner. If five hours of my life hadn't gone to... other things, this would look a lot better but gewash
UPDATE: did a bit of work on it today, hopefully I fixed a few things

Yes. Yes. I'm George, George McFly. I'm your density. I mean... your destiny.

Short Story status: don't talk to me.

Week Seven, Day Two

I can't think of anything clever to say today.

short story status: I am having to write some nonfiction crud for my creative writing class so I might count that for this weeks story

Week Seven, Day One

Vulcans! And Pencil tool! And green! And this jawline was nigh on impossible but I think it turned out alright

Blue eyeshadow brought to you by Leonard Nimoy's makeup artist from the Original Series

Short Story Status: in low caps today because I did nothings

Week Six, Day Seven

Week Six

hehe I totally didn't write a story this week here's what little I have

harp darp

Week Six, Day Six

today during my England in the Early Middle Ages class I couldn't focus at all (yay forgetting the book I am cool.) and instead daydreamed so hard about the things I'm going to write about in my NaNo novel this year (it doesn't help that I'm learning about all this ridiculously cool stuff in that class that I can readily steal) and so I made a map of the world for my novel. I am cool. I've actually been wanting to try making a map this way for a bit lately so I'm glad I got a chance to try it out. I may return to it later when I'm putting countries together

The large middle continent is my favourite

SHORT STORY STATUS: my life is a joke (as usual)

Week Six, Day Five

I can't think of a clever comment

SHORT STORY STATUS: nope.

Week Six, Day Four

my tablet was being temperamental today and wouldn't do pressure sensitivity so I drew in bamboo paper today instead of photoshop whilst I watched Back to the Future and Indiana Jones. My life is so cool.

these watermarks are incredibly tacky

SHORT STORY STATUS: started working on it today. I would guess it's somewhere between 200 & 300 words

Week Six, Day Three

today I ran and spent the whole time putting off working on this creative writing homework. Today I drew noses

SHORT STORY STATUS: *disgruntled fart noises*

Week Six, Day Two

I really like the top half of this painting. The bottom half probably needs more going on, but even that part is mostly cool to me too

with some help from Indy I think I have improved the lower half a bit

SHORT STORY STATUS: I'll get back to you when I'm done reading some classmates' poems...

Week Six, Day One

Today was sort of crazy. Once I got home from church (about 4ish?) I immediately went to work playing some geography games on sporcle (I'm really close to beating the countries of the world quiz) and then after that Indy and I have been reading through Hamlet over skype doing crazy accents (it's the best, you should get together with your friends and try it some time) anyway, this is what I threw together in the small in between times

super doinky

SHORT STORY STATUS: Sporcle.

Week Five, Day Seven

Today I drew Tintin! FINALLY. I've been trying and it's always looked horrible until now and I'm quite a fan. I really enjoy doing limited paletted pieces. This one was only three colours and I'm really tempted to call this piece "Tintin in Neapolitan" but I think "Tintin in Two D" is always a winner (inside jokes ahoy)

great snakes.

SHORT STORY STATUS: lol, I decided to submit it to inkpop because I don't know why.

Week Five

blah blah here it is. I decided to go with the prose poem version for so many reasons. Anyway, it's only 281 words long (according to google docs)

Read it Here

art status: Pretty swell.

Week Five, Day Six

Today was sort of crazy on a lot of levels so I sort of threw this together.

SHORT STORY STATUS: needless to say I did not do anything with it. I might remix the flash fiction/prose poem I did for creative writing with my "official" version and use that because I'm a pretty big fan of the prose poem version

Week Five, Day Five

Today, most of my afternoon was plagued with an existential crisis that mostly concerned my photoshop brushes. I'm still kind of working on reorganizing my brushes and getting rid of the ones I don't use and putting them in a good order and all that. I made this for today.

SHORT STORY BLAH BLAH BLAH: existential crisis.

Week Five, Day Four

Today I drew a bunch of different poses and then Rhenedith worked her way into my fingers once more. I have an explanation for that, but I'm unwilling to give it because I'm weird like that. I guess if you wnat to ask me I'll tell you but it's honestly not that big of a secret, I'm just awkward and slightly embarrassed? Generally out of control.

tried saving this as a gif and am quite pleased with the results (PNG 8 couldn't handle the colours for unknown reasons, PNG24 is fine, but it's a really big filesize but in this instance I think GIF worked really well)

Rhenedith detail:

I don't know that Shoulders actually blush like that, but I liked the way it looked

SHORT STORY STATUS: herple derple I haven't worked on it today because I suck. I've got about 318 words at the mo'

ANNOUNCEMENT THING: I have decided to incorporate a "100 Theme Challenge" with this, read the deets here
