SO MANY ARTBUNNIES OMG. WRY IS WORK?

I'm not really sure why I keep trying to keep all my ideas a secret until I produce them. I mean, it makes sense for presents and things like poncho!Vicky-T, but not everything has to be a surprise. Maybe if I talk about some of them, I will still be motivated to work on them even when I'm all tired after work. (Not today, because I have a [livejournal.com profile] cilghal to drag around Harvard Square in search of comics! But more often!)

Standard Lilith!art disclaimer: I am insanely slow, and I make no promises. I want to draw so many things and never do! But I always hope to improve on that. :)

things I want to be drawing right now kthx )

Of course, I won't work on any of this next week, because I'll still have all the Big Bang fic to catch up on. :DDD:

In other news, I guess I'm going to have to learn to conduct myself in fandom without hiding behind [livejournal.com profile] sweetvalleyslut anymore. Yikes.

(Everyone think good thoughts for her with me, okay? She is my beloved very bestest of friends in the whole world, and all kinds of mush that you wouldn't even believe, and she is going out into the world in such a freaking literal sense! Where she will ROCK THE SOCKS OFF everyone in eastern Europe. ♥♥♥)

If I could give up sleep forever (and still, you know, be healthy), I would totally do it . . . if I could be guaranteed all that time to draw instead. Perhaps then I would get things done, because I totally fail at off the cuff!

Hey [livejournal.com profile] olivia_circe, have some random fanart! )

I hope you're feeling so much better, sweetie. ♥

I swear, bandboys next time! If I ever finish anything else. I am keeping a list of fanartbunnies in the front of my sketchbook, now, with post-it thumbnails & doodles.

Okay, so Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull wasn't exactly the best movie I've ever seen. There are various criticisms to offer (along with some definite moments of squee), but there's only one thing I really want to say: how many action movies are there in which you get to see a 57-year-old-woman kick that much ass?

*crickets chirp*

That's what I thought. I fucking love Karen Allen. ♥

Speaking of things I love? I think I may be adding Robin to my comics pull for the first time ever. It's not that recent events weren't more or less expected, but OMG better than I could have even imagined! ♥ (This consoled me over the fact that there were no issues of the new Emily the Strange to be had at MYP or two Newbury Comics. Someone must have told the fangirls about Gerard's interview.)

Am gearing up for a weekend full of [livejournal.com profile] sweetvalleyslut (and a little bit of [livejournal.com profile] omnia_mutantur as well, huzzah). Neil Gaiman, Henry Jenkins, Life on the Murder Scene, thrift-shopping, swan boats, geek movies (Prince Caspian or Iron Man?), probable loud discussions of fandom in public, being incomprehensible to just about any and all passerby . . . \o/

I just have to remember not to wear the MIKEY FUCKIN WAY shirt to the swanboats. ^^; I got enough deathglares from parents with small children last weekend (I totally forgot that it was the Sunday of graduations in Boston as well as in the Valley).

Hey, so I finished doing the color version of my Greta/Vicky-T fanart! (Very very simple color, unshaded; I have no idea why it took me this long. Dammit, I need a tablet.)

I'm going to post both versions together, now, just because. :)

Fandom: bandom crossover (The Hush Sound/Cobra Starship)
Pairing: Greta/Vicky-T
Rating: PG
Summary: A companion piece to [livejournal.com profile] olivia_circe's Fantaisie-Impromptu; drawn as a gift for [livejournal.com profile] sweetvalleyslut (the fic was also for her). Greta is indulging in her desire to "play" the "piano keys" on Vicky-T's tights. (The hands are not quite right--I did play piano for awhile--but I think you can still tell?)
Disclaimer: This interpretation is not intended as anything other than fiction for my own harmless enjoyment, and the only intended audience is other fans.

a tactile reprise )

Now that I've seen Greta up close and in person, I feel much iffier on the likeness, even with excuses for style. But I'm totally going to draw her lots more, so hopefully it will improve. :) Meanwhile, I'm almost done inking that Avatar crack!comic, and I've almost started writing that fic I mentioned, really. (So slow, always!)

I spent a good chunk of my day cleaning, however, while listening to interviews. Lyn-Z is so amazing, I could swoon (Gerard, I am stealing your wife). Gerard apparently does not get crushes on people because he is "unimpressed" by them (but was earnestly impressed by his interviewer's "insightful" comments about random crushes on strangers on trains, and went on a whole tangent about how much most radio interviews usually suck, hee).

In other (multifannish) news, [livejournal.com profile] sae is amazing and spoils me unduly. (Unduly, I say! What have I done to deserve this generosity?) Today I received a packaged in the mail (wrapped in a paper bag that happened to be covered in tomatoes; it was adorable), containing a Kim Possible art print, framed and signed by Stephen Silver (the character concept artist), and also a gorgeous From Eroica With Love art/coloring book. Not to mention the hilarious Eroica doodles on the letter (Saaaaae-art, my favorite thing ever). Thank you so much, sweetheart. ♥

[livejournal.com profile] fuschia, I hope you had a beautiful birthday. ♥

[ETA:] Ack! I've been so occupied all evening, I missed all the wedding news! Hemingway was the ringbearer! OMG. :D

Pete and Ashlee randomly share my own parents' wedding anniversary. They also share this day with a ridiculous number of gay couples here in Massachusetts, because today is the 4-year anniversary of the legalization of same-sex marriage! (Be proud, kids.)

So hey, flist. Announcement.

This journal didn't really start out as such; I got it because I wanted to separate any fan-posting I did from my real name, which is publicly attached to my other journal. However, for awhile there I barely used this space; I'd occasionally post a picture or something. I was slipping out of fandom and stuff.

I've added a lot of people over the years, for various reasons, but I haven't really bonded with a lot of you and have kept to myself, etc. Now that I'm actually getting more involved in fandom again (one big, specific fandom in particular), though, I want to make this more of a "real" journal.

So I'm going to do some flist trimming, okay? It's not that I dislike any of you, but enough of us have never talked . . . pretty much ever. Or we shared a fandom a long time ago that I'm just not that involved in anymore, or who knows what. I don't really read some of your journals, and I'm pretty sure plenty of you don't read mine.

(By the way, I am totally cool with people defriending me at any point, for the same or whatever other reasons. I should probably make a note to that effect somewhere.)

And, y'know, if you get trimmed and are all sad about it, you can go ahead and comment and I'll probably add you back. I just kind of assume that a lot of you are like me: normally kind of paranoid and guilty about defriending people even when it's totally amicable and based on changing interests, the way things go in fandom a lot.

Um, and I might start friending some of the bandom people whose journals I have been reading. Because it's kind of silly for me to just read [livejournal.com profile] sweetvalleyslut's & [livejournal.com profile] olivia_circe's flists all the time. [ETA:] Nevermind, still a little too shy to go around friending people I don't know. I'll do it later, really.

(Also, I'm going to try and hand [livejournal.com profile] fandom_of_one off to somebody, because I think it's a good idea and feel rotten for being such a failboat.)

So um. Have been devoured whole by bandom. Will attempt to surface at least a little bit . . . soon?

This is just so much fun, you guys! The only part that isn't is my ridiculous stress over whether or not I can find a ticket to see MCR in New York. (Well, serves me right; if I'd caved a week earlier, this would not be a problem.) Stress is somewhat alleviated, however, because I will be going to the Honda Civic Tour in Boston next month. OH GRETA YOU HAVE MY HEART. (It'll be fun to see the tiny Beatles wannabes, too. :p No really, I'm excited to see Panic.)

I feel a little bad about getting so distracted right when I'm supposed to be focusing on a fest for another fandom. However, all this new obsession and hilarity have really gotten my artistic juices going again, so there may be fringe benefits.

I must not forget: the very happiest of birthdays to [livejournal.com profile] olivia_circe, from your number one fangirl. ;) I hope you're feeling better, sweetheart!

Oh, and speaking of fanart!

Yesterday [livejournal.com profile] sweetvalleyslut gave me something awesome: )

I know so many talented knitters.

Well, running a little late, but I just had a bit of a [livejournal.com profile] yuletide friending fit.

If you've just been friended by me, and are confused . . . you posted on [livejournal.com profile] glass_icarus's post from awhile back. You also wrote something I really liked (which I haven't recced yet, because I still haven't gotten around to that), or we just have interests in common, or I generally think you're cool.

I hope you don't mind. There's certainly no obligation to friend back; I am a very haphazard poster and reader, after all. However, if you'd like, you're certainly welcome to friend me. I'm absent-minded (and oftentimes, just absent), but I like people.

Man, I really wish I had more time right now. Just looking at peoples' interests makes me want to draw for all kinds of things. Bah.
