(no subject)
I think I've decided to sign up for R/S Games and see if I get in. Is anyone else on my flist doing it?
Finally got into Bathurst today. The drive wasn't too bad and it's warmer than it could have been. About 6° rather than -4. So it meant no ice on the road \o/
Got stuff we needed and the Woolies had finally got the Macro hessian bags in. They have one put aside for us which we couldn't get because the right person wasn't there but we bought two anyway. They have great handles and seem sturdy. I want to make my own green bags but we've not set the sewing machine up yet. There's no room with this printer/scanner on my desk.
I think we're going to have to order more wood this weekend if they can get us some. Much sooner than I would have liked. Would rather not freeze though.
I finished the pinch hit I was doing in time so I'm happy. Got some words written for it and D helped me fix them till it made enough sense.
Oh god I want to study art. So much. Health and money are stopping me. I should just really work at it on my own but ugh. Just Fucking Draw isn't going so well. I have been painting on the computer but not drawing from life etc.
I think I'm going to do JFD Friday where I scan in and put up what I've done.
Anyone want to join me? Or prompt/request anything? Can't say I will be able to spend a lot of time on it but I will give a sketch a go.
Is anyone interested in the stuff I link to? I like to share the pretties but I don't want to be hogging flist space if no one is interested.
Preties and Awesomeness Links:
♥ http://neave.com/planetarium/ This awesome flash planetarium lets you choose your location and then shows you all the starts in your sky and you can hover over them to see the names and constellations etc. You can even put in the date you want to check out so you can see where the stars were when you were born or where they're going to be in the future. So much fun and educational too.
♥ http://www.neave.com/games/ Old school games made in flash. Play Asteroids, Frogger, Hexxagon, Tetris N-Blox, Simon, Snake, Space Invaders, and Tic-Tac-Toe. So much fun. I'm shit at it but I could play Tetris for hours. I use Chrome and have flash turned off as a general rule so I have to click things to restart it. It took me a while to find the actual games themselves but there's a blank rectangle right up next to the (alarming)pink Neave Games sign. Once you click that the game graphic shows up and you click again to start the game. If you're not using Chrome with the flash turned off then you probably wont need those instructions.
♥ Awesome print for a threadless t-shirt. There are Ninjas and Pirates and Robots and Zombies. I love it dearly.
♥ Alternate cover for the Princess Bride book OMG. I can't even! IDFK guys. Oh Not safe for work there.
♥ MarieMJS's art is gorgeous and these three are new ones I was terribly impressed with. Frankenstein and his Monster (Benedict as Frankenstein here), Martin's John at Reichenbach and The Doctor and his TARDIS. Or the TARDIS and her Doctor.
All beautiful and make me want to improve my art. All at DeviantArt. As much as I hate the place there are gorgeous artists over there. (I hate the amount of viruses you can pick up from the adds on the page if you don't have script blockers and no flash etc)
