Rock-n-Roll Journey to Mars

First off, meme from gogoicarus.

1. Reply to THIS post, and I'll pick four or five of your userpics that I like.
2. Make an entry and talk about the icons I've selected.
3. Other people will then comment on your entry and you'll do the same as I've done for you.
4. Thus, we will help create a NEVER ENDING STREAM of icon squee. awesome.

( And the winning five are... )

And secondly, the big project revealed!

TA-DA!

A 1950's milk can, painted with a garden scene, for my sister. You can see some other shots of it here.

Fuck you, CS3, with your stupidly complicated interface and fucked up undo hot key. Elements is better. BUT I STILL BEAT YOU. HA!

...drawn at work. Which is more awesome then I could have ever imagined. Guys, if you ever get a chance to work with Google, take it. It is... just... wow. The office I'm interning at has a pool table, rock wall, and game consoles right inside the main door. There's this incredible free buffet for lunch. You can get snacks whenever you want. You can get booze whenever you want. It is incredible. (And the work is fun, too. ;p) I'm sad I'm only going to be here a week.

Okay, enough rambling about my internship. I'm working on a picture of my Ruby team similar to my Crystal team picture, so keep an eye out for that. And I'm still going to post the models from work, but I want to post them all together, so those'll probably go up around the weekend.

( Also, meme yanked from Tochi )

I got a haircut! This was right after I came back from the placey-dealy. Once I got the hairspray out it looked a bit more like Charlie Sheen, and with a bit of gel and work, it looks like Halle Berry. Either way, I like it. I was tired of it being in my face.

So, yeah, no art. But I found a meme! ( Cut for meme-y goodness )

Second part of the 100 sketch theme - Love. This one was a lot harder to do then the first. With 'Introduction', I saw the title and an image immediately jumped into my head. But 'Love' is rather vague. What kind of love? Romantic love? Parental Love? Heterosexual Love? Homosexual Love? Guy Love? Eventually I settled on 'Friendship Love'. And this is what I do with my friends; sit around and play pokemon with them.

I honestly think Pokemon is the most friendship-inspiring game in the world. GameFreak is a bunch of geniuses.




I can't seem to move my right arm without causing a lot of pain in my shoulder. I might have to skip T'ai Chi. :(

Did this for my art class. We had to work off a photo and use Indian Ink to use 'values'. I really do like how it came out. The folds look amazing, as does all the shading. I had a lot of trouble with the face, though, and it didn't come out right. Also, the paper was too thin, and the watered down ink made it warp a lot.

I took a little online quiz about 'What pseudo-historical figure are you?'
( I don't usually post these, but this was great )

And one last thing to leave with you guys for the night, I have found the best fan fic ever.

Devil May Cry: TEH CRYING OF THE DEMON

So, the math teacher I mentioned in my last entry? Turns out he died a few days ago of ACS. I know I should feel bad - and I do understand what his family is going through - but... honestly, I'm not going to miss emotional breakdowns in class.

Anyways, today I have for you some sci-fi arts and a meme.

( I liek robots )

And now for the meme, which I lifted from dragonladycels

1) Go to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random and look at the name of the article. That is the name of your band.

1.5) Click 'Random Article' 15 more times. These are your track titles.

2) Next, go to www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 and check the last four words of the very last quote. That is the name of your album.

3) Finally, head over to www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ and look at the third image. Whatever it is, that will be your album cover.

4) Muck all three up with your favorite photo-editing program and post the result.
