Yeah, I was looking at that Liger. It is lovely, but you could do so much more with it. Hmm, maybe I should critique you in that thread. Whoops.

Anyway, lovely. It looks familiar too...

Couldn't he just send the gin a cake with a file in it?

Look amazing LN! Now have it kill Harry Potter!
 
 
Papess

That file is classified. Sorry.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy

Pretty. Nice shading. I added up another 100 word story. They're fun to do, helping with the writer's block.

"It looks familiar too..."

It's just your standard Firebird pose. Wings outstretched, beak wide open in a cry of triumph/pain depending on the situation. I rather like how the tail turned out..

I agree that it could use some work, as I knocked it out with colored pencils in about five minutes.

Well since everyone else is doing it...

Here is my creative contribution - PHOTOS!

Shit. I'm not James Dean – I'm the other guy.
Nice one!

durn. I dont have anything to show.

Great story, Papers, it's like suspense that never ends.
 
 
Papess
02:09 / 24.10.06
I hope I wasn't too harsh, Liger. It is really beautiful, it could just be more.

I love coloured pencils. What kind do you have?
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
02:10 / 24.10.06
Thanks, Kegs. I liked that line.

Electrix - I like the one with the cacti and the skull best. The texture is beautiful...
 
 
Papess
02:11 / 24.10.06
Yep, read it too. Still sitting on the edge of my seat. What a great warm-up to Nanowrimo.
 
 
Papess
02:12 / 24.10.06
Thanx Papers.
 
 
Liger Null
02:15 / 24.10.06
Ohh, I love your photos, Trix!
So are water clovers actually a species of clover or are they just shaped that way?
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
02:16 / 24.10.06
What sort of insect is that in the first one? It looks like a butterfly, but something tells me I'd be laughed at if I suggested it.

I wonder if I should do a NaNoWriMo. Not to enter, really, but I did the three day novel for kicks a couple years ago so this might be worth it. And, you know, I'd actually produce something complete again.

Old Bombay "Elbows" Sapphire escaped from THE FREEZER correctional facility after scrawling YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE, COPPERS on the wall of his cell in magic marker. Officials refuse to comment on the exact nature of Sapphire's escape, although a police press release suggested that Sapphire may be on the move to meet up with his old moll, "Raspberry" Juice.

Berol Prismacolors

Thank you Liger. I think water clover is not really related to clovers. It is a water fern, apparently.
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy
02:19 / 24.10.06
I used to have the sweetest set of Prismacolours. Ah, youth. Now they're, oh, fifty bucks a pop?
 
 
Papess
02:21 / 24.10.06
Papers, it is either a moth or a butterfly. My bet is on butterfly, as moths tend to have enlarged antennae.


Prismacolors are awesome. Have you ever tried watercolour pencils, Liger? They are so fun to use.
 
 
Liger Null
02:21 / 24.10.06
My favorite picture is actually the snoke dragon. It's just so eerie.
 
 
Liger Null
02:23 / 24.10.06
I have a set of watercolor pencils (derwent, i believe) I keep meaning to dig them out and take them to the park.
 
 
Papess

I couldn't get Deep Purple out of my head after taking the smoke dragon shots.
 
 
Papess
02:24 / 24.10.06
Do it Liger. DO IT! You know you won't regret it.
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:25 / 24.10.06
It reminded me of the movie Excaliber, when Merlin summond the dragon's breath for Uther.
 
 
Liger Null
02:26 / 24.10.06
Do you know where the smoke came from?

I keep wanting to believe it's a dragon for real.
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:27 / 24.10.06
Probably just fog over the water.
 
 
Papess
02:30 / 24.10.06
The smoke is actual smoke. On the west coast they burn debris. I don't know why they burn it instead of recycling is beyond me. And they have a kickass recycling program out there. I dunno...
 
 
Papess
02:31 / 24.10.06
But Liger, you never know of the trickery a dragon can get up to.
 
 
Liger Null
02:34 / 24.10.06
Maybe he's going back to bite the asses of those folks burning their trash...
 
 
Papess
02:40 / 24.10.06
I really want to believe that, Liger.
 
 
Liger Null
02:41 / 24.10.06
Sheesh, it's almost midnight, and I have to have a wisdom tooth pulled tomorrow

Good-night shifters!
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:43 / 24.10.06
I think I will follow Ligers example and have a tooth pul..no, I mean go to bed. yeah that's it.
G'night all

Enough lounging about in the gallery. To writing! Or, you know, staring at the screen until my forehead bleeds. Nighto.
