Blah blah blah...
So, been away from here for a few days. :) Yesterday was strangely busy at work, and I spent almost the entire weekend arting. I started working on a Valentine's Day pic that, obviously, wasn't done by Valentine's Day but that hopefully will be done this coming weekend. Assuming that I keep being in arty mood, of course. Otherwise, it'll be done...

I've got a plan so cunning you could stick a tail on it and call it a weasel.
(Either you get the reference, or you think I'm a total weirdo.)

Although, honestly, the word "cunning" is now forever associated with Firefly in my mind, I'm afraid. :) Cunning hats, cunning plans, etc. :)

As for the good day, well, not really, but I'm happy you are.

But yeah...I'm weird when I'm in the art zone. I have no idea why. :) Just am.

That description of you arting brings tears to my eyes because it is exactly how it is when I am WRITING!! Interesting. It brings to mind something you said in a recent email about Frosty seeing things like in a movie - in a series of frames - that is what I see when I write, and the frames are utterly absorbing. I don't know that it produces necessarily superior narrative results, however.
REALLY interesting - I can see how Frosty's insprations and your narrative abilities - including those to communicate perceptions - produced some of the results they have :-)
But - the Art - details??

I think the absorption that happens to me when arting is because art is quite new for me, and I have to concentrate more on it. Writing has its zone, but it's just not as all-consuming now as art is. It just...happens. But yeah, Frosty and I work well together. She sees the big picture, overriding story arcs and action and such like movies that play in her head, while I obsessively focus down on smaller details. It's a good balance.
The art...is Hound/Mirage. And it's probably All Your Fault. ;)

But, being an optimist, there is an alternative. None of it happens.
My fault? How can it be my fault? I'm not even a traditional M/H fan!! It's only about 10 days ago that i started articulating their smexual fantasies. This is bad! Q: can't you make it Raj and Skywarp? That's more romantic, at least. LOL !!

Meh, I highly doubt any big poofs will happen, anyway. Leastwise none that were "predicted" by Mayans who reckoned time in eras, anyway, and the end of an era does not mean the end of the world. :p Why are people so obsessed with such "predictions" made by cultures that they know nothing about? :p
Hee hee hee...Nah, too late to make it Skywarp/Mirage, I'm afraid. Especially because the Hound part is pretty much done. He's easy. Mirage has...too much white. I HATE working with white! Why do I do this to myself? :p And I hate working with black, too, so a pic of Mirage and Skywarp would be TRULY hellacious for me ( ... )

I know that dilemma all too well. *hides sketch of FUR!version hot boy+girlfriends*
About the pairing in your art - I thought it was P/J by default. Hmm...wonder what it could be, instead?

*ahem*
The pic I'm working on is Hound/Mirage, which makes me think that you'll like it. ;) It's based on a screen capture, but greatly modified. I started out just making an icon, but then...went totally obsessive. :) So, it's totally recolored, the background completely re-painted, and while the basic poses are not changed (because of my current deficit of drawing ability), much of the detail is re-drawn because it's either drawn completely wrong or just very strangely in the capture or because I just like messing with certain details in an effort to improve said drawing skills. Like, I like to draw Autobots with cute, rounder, pudgier faces rather than angular ones, which I save for 'Cons and Dinobots. I hate hands, though, regardless of faction. :p

I hear you on the hands-issue. Got the same problem with those and arms.

And yeah, Hound always needs love. Says I. I pair him with Trailbreaker, though, not Mirage.
