Holy gosh, it's an update! Like I've suddenly become an online presence again.

Spent the day browsing reference pictures at the Art Renewal Center and ogling female nudes, which is basically the same thing, once you get down to it. All for my finals project in Art! \o/ I will not say too much, for the sake of surprise, but so's you get the idea:

GREAT. NOW WHENEVER I HEAR "RAMBAM" I'LL HAVE TO LAUGH. D:

[miarr]

I DO NOT THINK HE WOULD BE ALL THAT AVERSE TO THIS, BB. AFTER ALL, HE WAS A DUDE. 8D

[miarr]

HAHAHAHAHA WHAT, IT'S THE BEST PART. Or, well, it is right after the guy who goes "oy vey oy vey oy vey" with his face buried in his hands. That bit will never stop being funny, I swear to god. XDDD

DESERVED QUOTE IS DESERVED. It was too good to pass up. 8D *highfive*

MAIMONIDES = RAMBO????

*SPITS TEA ON SCREEN*

Actually, you realize that if Rahm Emanuel is called Rahmbo, by the same logic the Rambam should be called Ramba? Because it is so.

[angelofcaffeine]

"Maimonides was a dude."

You know, I never thought I'd see the Rambam summarised successfully in four words, but... there it is. XD

[miarr]

I KNOW RIGHT. People will probably look at that quote and go "derp, unfunny" but they don't realize: he actually was. My inner Jew geekery was totally kicked into overload by this. \o/

[angelofcaffeine]

... I wish I had enough control over my Jew geekery to refer to it as "inner". D:

[miarr]

LMAO. PREACH IT, GIRL.

Is there even anything you do NOT excell at? This little sneak peak of pastels looks so damn good. Could be the work of some late 19th century artist. Love the eyebrows (true beauty *_*)

[miarr]

Hee, thank you darling! *HUGS* Coming from you, that is a huge compliment. ♥ ♥ ♥ After all, I look to your art and strive only to emulate.

(How I wish I had you here for my current drawing. ;_____; I need something with a better grasp of proportions and small details. Alphonse Mucha is totally kicking my ass with his art nouveau s;dfhs;kdjf.)

To be fair, I'm not drawing from my head, but "quoting" and then tweaking with other, fairly well-known paintings. Maybe you can even tell which one this is based on! *cackle*

[lukadron]

Oh shush! *slaps your hand playfully*
You must def. show me once you are finished. 8D 8D

And I'd loved to help, lol, tho I am not sure I would be any good at all. I am a terrible advisor. ("You have to change that thingy." "What thingy?" "That... over there, it needs more curve." "It's supposed to be a-" "No no, more curves... wait let me... HM." "That looks retarded." "Yeah, ... it does. But at least it's retarded with... style." "Not even that, Lucca. Not even that.")

[miarr]

Oh, shut up, you know you are an excellent advisor. I remember you redlined some of my drawings once (when I still used Photoshop for drawing-oh, those innocent days! *pining* ;_;) and the result was instantly 400% more a) appealing, b) professional, c) anatomically correct. It's like MAGIC! Except the only thing that goes boom is my staggering brain.

But yeah, you will see everything on March 11 (aside: OMG SO SOON I CAN'T DO IT I'M ONLY TWO DRAWINGS IN AND I GOT A BUNCH OF TESTS BETWEEN THEN AND NOW AND OMFG I AM GOING TO FAIL SO HARD AND IT'LL ALL BE FOR NOTHING S-SOB SOB SOB. /moment of panic). Look forward to it!

[miarr]

Hee! THANK YOU BB. *blush* It's all very much in the works, but, you know, it's getting there and it's pretty cool so far. :D :D :D

[miraba]

I demand that you show more of the art.

[miarr]

But then it won't be a surprise when I do show it! :O March 11, that's the official gallery opening. (Also the date I will probably shoot myself because there is NO TIME TO FINISH THE PROJECT MOTHERFUCKER and it is better to die in ignominy than get a zero ;sdfjsdlkf.)

Providing I live to tell the tale, the subsequent picture post will be GIANT. 8D

[miarr]

P.S. When are we meeting again? Today, 9am your time, am I correct? :O Fair warning, I might be a bit late, since I'm coming back from a family luncheon which was announced to me, uh, just last night (GOOD JOB ON THE PLANNING, FAMILY). We definitely need to meet, though! Especially if you've new ideas in your head. >D

[miraba]

That was the planned time, although it is an hour and a half early and I cannot go back to bed.
