So haha, yeah, I was actually doing NaNoWriMo this November. My final word count was a bit disappointing. I didn't even get halfway. I didn't even get to introduce the character I was dying to introduce! Still, it's better than any of my other attempts in recent years, and I'm slightly impressed I actually kept at it to the end instead of just ( Read more... )

So I watched Deathly Hallows part 1 last night, and it was a pretty awesome way to relive my old Harry Potter fandom days. I don't draw much HP fanart anymore, but back in the day I drew so much of it that a lot was just left to moulder in old sketchbooks or hard drives. A lot of things I thought, "Well, I'll finish this/ink this/color this someday ( Read more... )

So in that last informal poll I conducted, a number of you guys reading this said I should double post art here as well as on Deviantart. I haven't really used this lj for posting art, so please bear with me while I figure things out ( Read more... )

AAAAAUUUUUUGGGHHH WHAT DID I DO

Obviouly, I thought wrong.

Behold bishounen Magneto and Professor X!

Behold bishounen Kirk and Spock! Horrifyingly adorable chibi ( Read more... )

All of today I've been thinking about how those lyrics to "Winter Wonderland" actually sound rather sinister.

Here are the spoils I obtained on this most beloved commercialized feast day:( some stuff. )

So the ickiest bit of my cold seems to have moved on -- no more sinus headaches and weird goop coming out of my eyeballs -- leaving just an annoying cough and a deep and abiding resentment towards everyone in the world who has already seen the Series of Unfortunate Events movie. Just like every year, all foreign films coming out mid-December or so ( Read more... )

Carlo showed me some trailers for Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, and we both agreed that Cloud's voice sounded very familiar. So I did a little research, and holy crap, he was Fakir. XD

Something I saw last week and found disturbingly cool: cartoon character skeletons.

I guess there are certain things that one takes to be common knowledge, when they're really not. Take, for instance, this Daily Deviation on DeviantArt. Looks quite nice, and ooh look, there's a kitty in the background. Then I read the description, and it mentions that the cat is male. But it's tricolored. Tricolored cats are always female.
