Holy shit, look what Justin made for me:
It's the almost a perfect expression of my inner fox soul.
And I didn't even tell him what i wanted. I just said "go crazy
and make whatever you want, I trust your judgement".
So he made me a fetish girl. jesus I have the coolest friends. |

| oh snap, a chinese DA? |
[May. 25th, 2009|02:48 am] |
here's something really cool.
So I was watching this CNBC program on HULU about the new
chinese internet giants, one of which is a search engine called
'BaiDu' which actually has google in 2nd place. So being a big
internet dork, I head over and start fooling around looking for
WoW stuff, and I find the profile of this chinese artist named
'Xellos13' on a site called 'CGyes<' which seems to be a social
networking site of some kind for chinese artists?
I dunno. but this kid is GOOD. Very graf style. I like!
His works are limited to a few monster hunter and WoW Pieces,
and he clearly favors Horde (hell yes). I'm trying to see if
he has any work elsewhere. Check it out though:
you know you wanna check out this LIIIIIIIIIIINK

| 5 Centimeters per Second |
[Feb. 28th, 2009|04:56 am] |
Last night Erin and I had an internet movie phone date.
It was amazing.
Crunchyroll, for one day only, is hosting the collected
works of critically acclaimed artist and director Makoto
Shinkai. They're hosting what I would easily consider his
'magnum opus', a short film entitled '5cm per Second', a
heartwrenchingly bittersweet romance dealing with the idea
of unfulfillable love, regret, and yearning between two
childhood friends.
Being a huge fan, afnd finding out earlier last night about
it, I excitedly called her up, and we made a date to be movie
pals together. We queued up our videos, and stayed on the
phone together while we watched it, and shared our reactions.
We both sobbed and cried together through the angsty and
beautiful parts. on one level I'm really glad I got to share
this movie with her, being my dearest friend, and yet i think
it speaks volumes about how much I miss having her in my life.
It's been a few years since we were dating, & we've been apart
for a while. We're still best friends, but lately I've been
really missing her. And apparently she's feeling similarly on
her end. But I'm over here, and she's over in california on
the other side of the country.
I don't know if we'd ever seriously date again. I think we're
maybe past that. But we're still close enough that we miss
having each other in each others lives.
I'm really glad that I have someone I can nerd out on sappy
romance movies with. I have too few of those. It was pretty
fun to share something like this with a good friend who I
knew would 'GET' it, you know?
I HIGHLY reccomend it, as it's an exquisite piece of film-making
it's available for viewing for one more day till saturday evening |

So after these amazing icons I have to make Kelly something.
I've been trying to figure out what to do, so I though I would
ask people's opinions.
1) Some terribad art. like, the works.
2) A terrible sculpey action figure
3) Some terrible prop armor which will probably be too big
because she's all of 12 lbs
note: depending on what you suggest, I might completely ignore
it and make something else even more 100% mediocre than normal.
THAT IS ALL |

| Cardboard propmaking |
[Jun. 16th, 2008|10:11 am] |
I was looking at some prop tutorials and some people were referencing the work of this guy. It's not fancy fiberglass work, but it's pretty damn impressive for just using cardboard and paperboard.
which's about as awesome as this rediculous goddamn Gundam costume I found you youtube |
