Esgalwen! Small, quite anime-faced, but very cute all the same. Slim, with long black hair, and a playful glance back, this is how her husband first saw her, dancing at one of those famous parties in Mirkwood once. Though I don’t think she looked quite this young. Anyway. No shoes! Oh yeah, and she’s dancing to the Enya song Carribean Blue which is very dancable. It’s in 3/4.
So I’m happy with this picture. Yay!
Yesterday one of the girls at work gave me four cinnamon buns (I asked for them) and she wrapped them all in different coloured paper. I guess she was as bored as I was. Still, I appreciate it!
My brother is reorganizing his room. Fall cleaning and all that. ’s gonna be fantastic for him. Me, I don’t bother going in there. That’s his territory. Now if only he realized that about my room…
If you check back at midnight something vaguely exciting will happen.
Onwards!
Well! Here is Ceniro, and he’s just going to make me squeal with delight, because I always like it when he shows up. In this picture, he’s actually journeying with Eliwood, but Lyn took time out for ‘Lyn’s Legion’, the Original, to get together, so there’s Florina, the little figure on the left, Wil sitting between her and Lyn, Lyn waving her sword with rather long arms… and Kent and Sain, who are too far away to tell apart. And their loyal friendly tactician is sitting under a tree a short distance away, just enjoying the fact that they’re there again, and not even looking at his Gam- farseer. Seriously, it’s not a Gameboy. Really. It has buttons and stuff, but they’re not Gameboy buttons. Actually, the latest design has no buttons. I figured that would be beyond the imagination of medieval spellsmiths. It might have had levers, but its designer thought those would maybe catch on things and just generally be too unwieldy. So it has a purely magic interface. Now, at least.
This was some Flairé-insertion to something that you don’t get to find out what it is. Suffice to say that the fair damsel with the curly hair was being stubborn about something, and Flairé’s intervention didn’t mean much except for people to stare at his pretty face under his cloak (not that his cloak disguises him much from people… he’s still 7′ tall with a sword!) and gawp.
I watched The Matrix for the first time just before this picture with my friend lx, and he said to me in the middle of it: “I like Neo’s coat. Get me Neo’s coat, Jen.”
Soooo… I was bored, and decided to draw myself as I flopped on the couch, a very normal pose for me. Most of the lines are in vaguely the right place, but it’s rather a confused mess to the eye, isn’t it? Doesn’t help that I drew my right leg too small, at first.
Well, guess what this is! Hint: look at the top left of your page. The very top. No, higher than that. No, lower than the toolbar. …Yeah! It’s the ’site logo’ thingy that I made up to go as part of the title image. Except in pencil. Looks pretty similar, doesn’t it? After I get near everything else up, then I’ll post the colour version and you can see that, too.
This is based on a really strange dream I had once. There was an old man with long hair, but he turned into a very beautiful young man still with silver-white hair, and I followed him up some moonlit stairs. So when I woke up, I thought: “He would make a fantastic boyfriend for Flaria!” So I drew him and her together at the top of the same stairs.
