VM update

Yes, another page updated (today is page 36), and on the new Wednesday update. *sigh* I don't really like this page. I don't like how it turned out, and I think in generally I'm just getting a little burnt out. I'm just not feeling very artistic lately. Whatever. That's just my feeling right now...I was even toying with just ending the whole thing and moving on. Maybe because I'm just a tempermental bitchy artist. Ha!

New update day!

Yes, VM is moving to Wednesday's to round out the update days a little better. I don't mind, because it gives me more time to work on my pages. (Doesn't mean I've got it together, but you know...) Ahhh, I'm assembling a see through man right now. I've got the skeleton all assembled, and I've started painting most of the organs. It's so much fun! Here's some pics of that (it looks kind of like a crime scene, doesn't it?) But hopefully it'll be cool. It's a lot harder to assemble a model and put it together, but I'm enjoying the challenge.

Anyways, update on WEDS.

EEE!!! Edward Scissorhands!!!

I am so excited today. I just bought this beautiful limited edition Edward Scissorhands doll-it's so darling, I'm thrilled I got it.
Just had to put pictures up of it, because it's absolutely amazing!

VM update...Page 35

And here we go, another page updated! And on TIME!!! I hate being tardy, and last week was unusual, because I got engaged, AND the sever was down. I'm so dumb too, because our Webmaster and all around magic person that handles the Modern Tales sites TOLD us that would happen. But we artist's never pay attention to those important memos. Only the ones regarding trivial information and gossip.

Ahhh, it's so late now. I think I need to go to bed, as my neck and back are stiff from doing this page.

I'm glad people are reading it and tolerating the extremely painful facts that:
a. It only updates once a week.
b. I'm really slow at getting to the point.
c. I'm not a strong writer, and therefore a lot of things that could be handled more gracefully aren't.
d. I'm not sure I know what I'm doing.

ANYWAYS! Tomorrow-Sunday. More artwork, more artwork must be made!!!!

VM page update and news!

And the latest page (34) of VM is up, here it is, along with some fabulous art from Ms. Traci Spencer who does the wonderful comic Compass!

The page was a little late because after five years, I have become officially engaged! And that's a weird thing, because I'm not super girly or sentimental (nor is my now fiancee), and when I got my ring, I was so touched that I mean so much to another person, and also realized that I'm officially an adult! I mean, how scary!!! And I've never, EVER gotten a diamond anything from a man, so as my first ring, I have to say it's incredibly special. (I don't wear any jewelry anyways, because my skin is so sensitive, I have never been able to have my ears pierced, necklaces always get tangled in my hair, leather bracelets or watchbands make my skin break out, and I just never really bought myself rings.) It's pretty funny though, I doubt we'll do a "wedding" per say-as I'm not a wedding person, but of course we'll do something. Just have to figure out what... *tee hee!* Our anniversary falls on Halloween-but I refuse to do some "theme" thing. So-no getting married on that day.

AND, I saw Grindhouse and both loved and hated it. I LOVED Planet Terror. I'm sorry, it was so MST3K, that I half expected the little talking heads to make note of it. It was just so over the top, it moved at a frantic pace, the missing integral reels of story development were so funny, I just had such a fun time. The faux trailers were all great, then we get to Tarantino's contribution-Death Proof. ERRRR!!! Why must he always go for this overly intricate Tarantinoesque cutesy dialogue?!!! Sometimes, it drives me crazy with it's meaninglessness. (Each of his movies do it-like the whole pancake thing in Pulp Fiction, the overwrought dialogue between the Bride and Bill at the end of Kill Bill 2...) It's dialogue for the sake of dialogue. And I know Tarantino must write the words, and love reading them out to himself, or whatever, because the man loves to talk, but SERIOUSLY. When you only have a little over an hour-and you bring a double feature almost to a screeching halt with it, it's annoying. It bothers me, only because he is a total fanboy, and he is so freaking good at emulating the stuff he loves most, but I wanted to pull my hair out, I was so bored. And it's sad, because the car chases were wild. They really were. I wish he had kept it moving.

My two cents there! I don't want to go to work tomorrow....this week is going to be insane....

Grindhouse!!!

Eee! I'm so excited to see the new Grindhouse double feature. Blood, guts, zombies, death...*sigh*. It'll be cool. If you haven't seen the website for the film-check it out, it's really rad. The loading screen itself is awesome.Grindhouse Website
Plus in the movies they even have missing reels and the footage is made to look all scratched up-I'm willing to sit three hours-and see people explode and get eaten. Coool.

And it is Friday. Thank goodness. Isn't this weekend Easter? Huh. I have no concept of time anymore. Maybe I'll buy a chocolate bunny to celebrate. Yummmy.

And so it begins...

Aahh, even though VM updated a day late for the Gam-aversary crossover madness (theme: superheroes), allow me to post for your hopefully unsensitive eyes...the madness of Nate in a...incorrect superhero outfit? Oops.

VM should update this week at it's regularly scheduled time..Sunday. And whose lucky series do I get to bastardize? Well, you never know...

And I've been working on some fan art for my new favorite manga/anime series!!!! Which one is it? I should be posting it later this week!!!!!

Woooo!
