(more...)

So admittedly I haven't been working on the memoir as much lately as I'd like. "Work" has picked up a bit, and then I've kind of been sidetracked with watching a lot of downloaded foreign TV shows and DVD purchases and whatnot, so yeah. The air conditioning is also out, so I feel kind of hot and icky and don't really want to do anything, and I opened a window, which helps with the stuffiness, but things are still pretty muggy in here. The chirping birds are getting on my fucking nerves and last night people in the neighborhood were outside yelling at each other at 2 AM. I haven't been sleeping well. YAY EXCUSES!

Anyway, here's an excerpt from the memoir (if you need to, click the image below to see the large print version):

So in addition to hopefully working on the memoir a bit this weekend and getting another SC article up, I'm thinking I want to write another short story. Nothing for submission to magazines or anything -- fairly convinced that avenue is a waste of time; nobody wants to pay for my stuff -- but I might post it here or on SC if I ever get around to it. But right now I'm so hot that I just want to take a cold shower in lieu of going swimming because I do not have access to a pool. But I wish I had a bottle of chlorine so I could breathe in the fumes and pretend I'm in the wave pool at Wild World.

Excerpt from an IRC convo about anime:

<Kyusaku> the lead voice actress actually had to go on maternity leave around the last 13 eps
<Kyusaku> and her replacement kinda sucked
<Wesper> whatever she could totally have done her part from the hospital
<Kyusaku> seriously
<Wesper> just have lots of scenes with her opening heavy doors

And that's all for now. Ja ne!

ph33r!

And here are the colorless pencils, which is the pic's original form:

First pencil drawing I've done in ages. Maybe since '01. Yikes.

For those of you unfamiliar with THE CAT WITH HANDS (for shame!), go watch the freaky video.

Previous cats with hands can be found here and here. Fun. Ja!

And for those of you who've been missing your Scary-Crayon fix, do feel free to pop over and check out yesterday's Father's Day tribute to Buraiking Boss. In addition to being an interesting piece (I hope you'll agree!), it gave me an excuse to draw the guy (click the image below for a slightly larger version of the pic). And that's always fun, yes indeedy. 🙂

Recent SC artwork has also included an actual crayon rendition of Billie Piper and a Dalek. Drawing stuff with crayons is kinda messy.

Until next time, minna-san! 😛

Been a while since I posted some of my goofy fanart drawings on the blog, so here we go. Click either of the pictures to open a slightly larger version in a new window.

Quick picture of the TMNT's Rat King that I worked up yesterday, mostly based on the action figure (minus the centipedes and spiders and whatnot). I like how the development of the little one-eyed rats turned out -- I'm going to have to use that style whenever I finally do something with Ratlantis.

And here's a drawing of PYRAMID HEAD, largely based on his incarnation in Silent Hill the movie. It's the same picture that appears in Scary-Crayon's Dusty Plastic HELL: Hot Flash #80 plus a grain filter and sans the interview text and cartoon Wes.

Excelsior!
