What happens when [livejournal.com profile] look_alive draws with muted YouTube videos playing all night?






aeronaut.

Uh. Someday maybe I'll stop using this for gesture drawing...
Also, there are some similarities that I didn't notice until just now, which are heavily ironic, especially in lieu of recent "everybody when the sunlight dies, everybody hide your body from the scarecrow" text message exchanges.

undead prom king.

This outfit should be made. For me. So I can wear it FOREVER.
For [livejournal.com profile] zolac_no_miko.

untitled after the anatomy of a fall.

Work in progress for [livejournal.com profile] regonym.

inked.

I'm doing at least one more variation on this. Preferably on paper that DOESN'T bleed like a Tarantino extra. Motherfuck.

I have no idea when I started titling things. It makes me feel awkward and pretentious and kind of silly.

FUN STORY, THOUGH. The aeronaut one is totally the confused, illegitimate lovechild of too many hours spent creeping watching William Beckett move and an article on overpopulation in the January issue of National Geographic. The article begins with an anecdote about Antoni van Leeuwenhoek discovering some magical ratio for human populous expansion in a drop of jizz while he's banging his wife. No. Seriously. But anyway, this dude was (probably) Johannes Vermeer's model for these two paintings, The Geographer and The Astronomer, and since in my head William Beckett just happened to fall out of Ye Fünky Auld Times and the picture was half-drawn without a background and stuff, anyway... Fuck, guys, should I even be trying to explain myself and my thought-processes to you people anymore?

...Assuming the answer is no, I'm going to go on to add that I have a theory- no, wait, I have two theories- where his shitty, shitty lyrics are actually meant to be sung in OLD ENGLISH, therefore making them AWESOME and NOT SHITTY. Tangentially, the other theory is that he's a wizard. A really, really crap one who rode the short train to Hufflepuff House and spent all his time letting Moaning Myrtle help him write his songs.

OH OH AND. [livejournal.com profile] regonym, I have something else for you. [livejournal.com profile] aquidis helped, but I'm totally taking all the credit. MOTHERFUCKER YEAH.

It's all good! I figured you'd say something eventually.

YAAAAAAAAAY I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKE IT! Like, I think I might try inking another couple copies and seeing if I can get some of the kinks worked out? Idk. Just playing around with it. Annnnnd I might even try coloring it, because I feel like that'd give it a lot more depth and character if I ca do it right. GUH I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKE IT! SERIOUSLY. YOU HAVE NO IDEA. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I wish that I had a magic power so that when I drew an outfit. Or shoes. Or whatever. They would SPRING INTO BEING. In my size.

That would be the best superpower ever. Although it would suck if someone like me had it, because it would be like, stick figure clothes, and that would just be SAD.

Dude, no way. I'd like, figure out some way to develop transference. It'd be no fun if I was the only one dressing like that! ...Not that it would be much of a stretch for me, honestly.
