Of all the times…

October 28th, 2005

… I could’ve picked to be in an artistic mood, I had to pick the day I had a throbbing headache :(

Well not entirely true. I picked up my pad and pencils on wednesday and started the pic.
But for some odd reason I had enough patience to not rush it and actually took my time and put the work down halfway through. So yesterday I had this gnawing urge to pick it up again and finish it despite my headache that day.

The headache didn’t do wonders for the pic. I did rush the rest of it a tad, but it’s still semi decent considering I haven’t drawn anything in months (the uberleet 16×16 pimp mobile and hippo dun count :P ).
I removed the mat he was sitting on in photoshop, because at that time the headache felt like it was gonna pop my eyeballs right outta my skull so the mat turned out awesomely hideous :P

So ya, even though I’ve ruined my neck by staring down at my art pad, on a chair definately not designed for sketching in, I’m still somewhat satisfied with my new breath of artsy air.
I doubt I’ve got any more wind left in me after this pic though (well except for the wind generated by the chili I had last night but that wasn’t what I was talking about).
Anyways, lotsa pencil used up in this piece. Still not as much as in my Quetzalcoatl pic though.

But enough ranting, here it is, it’s far from perfect but It’s not too shabby for my doing, so…
(More proud of my patience than anything else lol).

’snot so nice…

Sorry for not having updated my blog for a while.
Like the title already reveals a bit, I’ve been havin the flu.
Well, still am. I’m expecting greenpeace at the door any second now because another rainforest probably had to be cut down for the amount of tissues I’ve been using the past few days :P

So ya, lotsa comfort food, lotsa passing out on the couch, and ofcourse lotsa WoW to distract us from this annoying thing. (ya, us. Mord’s had it too but is finally gettin better).

Speaking of WoW, I made 60 yesterday.
I was expecting it to happen in a glorious battle against whatever, but nooo.
It happened in felwood as I was putting salve on a corrupted nightdragon flower to cleanse it :P
Meh.
I guess it’s the ultimate Druid way to level, but still… meh :P

Didn’t have the 900G to buy my epic mount yet either. But I’ll get there… eventually…

Apart from that I haven’t done too many spectacular things. Mostly just silly and brainless things…
Like taking Morgause and Buttstink on a deadmines run.
Gryan Stoutmantle was quite pleased when they handed in the quest… :D

And getting distracted on our way to maraudon and deciding to take corpse camping literally and have a puppet show with it :P

So ya, WoW silliness (and a bit of chocolate) are the best remedies for the flu.

When Game becomes Reality

October 5th, 2005

You just know you’ve been playing a game too much when you start having dreams about it at night.
And it happens to a lot of people, I know that much.
But 2 nights ago I just had the weirdest dream.

It wasn’t so much a dream with an actual storyline. At least I don’t think it was.
Either way I can only remember a moment of it.
(Now some of you will know how I’ve been questing and grinding like mad with my warlock, just so I could get her to lvl 30 and be able to start the Felhunter quest series.)

Well, in this oddly realistic dream I was actually physically IN Azeroth.
I believe it was Ashenvale. It looked kinda nightelfy.
So yeah, I wasn’t looking at a screen, I wasn’t staring at some game graphics. I was IN there lol.
And I’d just gotten my felhunter demon.
It was the oddest thing.
I was petting it, could very clearly feel the fur and the smooth leathery texture of the black dready/spikey things on it’s head. I was huggin’ and petting a felhunter demon lol

Hilarious.

So yeah yesterday I figured it was definately time to get it all done before I had any more of those freaky dreams :)
So behold! My new felhunter minion! :D
