Viewing talk, school talk, art talk

I've been watching lots of movies as usual and been adding Murder She Wrote with *three* different friends! I'm going mad with power! Ann and Vali and Elly the Elephant and I even managed to get them to overlap and see each other! Sort of! GREAT TIMES.

Jessica is such a crowd pleaser. I love her meddle face.

Tonight's movie was Tammy and the T-Rex which was a beautiful vision of what you can do if you have an animatronic t-rex, a camera, and a dream.

I get my diploma on Friday! Yay! Anthropology. Yay!

I've been drawing still and still obsessed with City of Heroes, so here's more of the art of my characters. Heavy appearances from Silver Cygnet and Bugpunch.






This was referenced from a pin-up (Gil Elvgren, Have a Heart) that was going around as a 'draw your character' meme. Thank you to Dreamiflame for finding me the credit 'cause no one else was doing it on the ol' bsky.

That first one for sure looks like a Gil Elvgren. Have a Heart, I believe.

I like the wingless person posing/hanging out on the roof, tasteful blue color scheme. Is that a hero with cold-based powers?

oh right, flying heroes with smart phones! I didn't even think of that hazard. I assume the wings take care not to bump into things?

[crantz]

Yes! That's Cloud9 / Claude Nein. He's got storm and ice powers and has a pretty chilly personality mixed with being an absolute dick sometimes. He's one of my favourites to play.

I fear that Silver Cygnet/Su's wings are a frequent source of disaster, tbh. In games I've had him say that he is no longer welcome in small shops.

And who is the last one who sits like me but on a trashcan? Is that some sort of Morlock character?

I guess in reality you'd have to seriously embrace the bird lifestyle and stop trying to fit into standard human infrastructure once you become a winged human.

That's Wavelengths! She's a mutant member of the gang the Outcasts - they're like, the least evil gang in city of heroes since instead of like, being murderers who worship death, or cults that sacrifice people, or frankenstein zombies, etc, they just mug people and fight for territory with the other gangs. They're also all mutants.

She mutated to be like a ghost - she has electric and sonic powers and has a boney outcrop on her face, that's not a mask.

For the winged people - the one going after the french fries *is* an uplifted pigeon, not a people, and spends lots of time outdoors. The one with white wings, Silver Cygnet, has grown to just be really aware of scouting if places have backless chairs or not before he visits.
