    Drew this today, trying for a full-body shot of her reaching for this gold idol thing. Facing directly right, practiced that view. However when I tried the zoomed out view the pencil lines were too thick, regardless of sharpening. Settled for a close-up. What do you think?

    Ya know, it's more than a tad irritating when I'm in the mood to make something over at my art table, but I can't, because of chronic pain. Arm & shoulder movements is generally what is involved here. Today is one of those days. Bah. Time to go take more Advil.

    Sorry to hear you’re in pain again Sophie :( Unfortunately I can relate though. It’s so frustrating when pain and/or illness get in the way of being creative. I hope the Advil helps and you feel better soon.

    Thought I was going to be extremely sore all day today after a lot of drawing and such yesterday, but that didnt stick. I'm finally at a position where I can, you know, DO things more often. Without physically wrecking myself in the process. Of course now I have to actually decide on what to do, that's the hard part.

    Made this today. My grandmother (on my stepmother's side) passed away last night... I was asked to make this. It will be displayed during the funeral, and then placed in the casket. Didnt exactly enjoy making this. But I think I made good use of my new Posca markers for the highlights. I'll have to remember that technique for future projects.

    Sorry to hear.

    Nice marker project, the writing came out very good.

    So, I got my keyboard. I got quickly fed up with trying to decide amongst the confusing array of new options (seriously I'm not good with hardware at all) so I decided to just get another of the one I had before. The original Razer Blackwidow Chroma, the big bulky one. Barely got my hands on one, these aint made anymore.
    Misery
    Have to buy a new keyboard. This machine is used for gaming, so obviously I want that sort. But... what the heck happened? Modern gaming keyboards look like fragile, incomplete prototypes that are missing their shells. Like keyboard skeletons. And they are ALL like this. As compared to the bulky, sturdy mass that is my previous one. This search is already really irritating.

    @Metalhead I definitely agree with them. Particularly since I mostly play indie games. But some things just dont work with that (well, not if I dont want to go insane).

    @Outdated Generally gaming keyboards are focused on accuracy, better ability to handle many keys pressed/held at the same time, and reduction of input lag. I am particularly sensitive to input lag to the point where 3-4 frames of it (unnoticeable to most people) will drive me crazy. I can't not notice that. So for me, an office keyboard just wont do.

    Have a look at Corsair's range. Currently I'm using a slightly elderly K95 which works well. Don't know what the lag is but my brain isn't quick enough to notice!

    Here's an ominous photo for you. I forgot I took this. An unexpected moment here at home a few months ago.

    It was also very LOUD. A lot of high pitched shrieking and flashing.

    So, I've got a long, immediately noticeable scar on my left arm now... the result of that big anxiety attack I had. Since I've been so perpetually stressed over... you know... THAT issue... it leaves me prone to much worse anxiety than I'd otherwise have. "The Talk" would end it. But I keep pushing it off, so now I get to have this reminder of that extended mistake. Sooner or later I need to just DO this already.

    Oh boy. Your anxiety is making this worse. Maybe imagine the worse that will happen if you disclose and have the "talk". This is how l get thru the horrible things l can't face. If you aknowledge the worse that may happen, then you can accept the reality if it did happen. Your parents seem to be very loving. If they love you, they will accept you just as you are.

    Good luck Misery, l have faith in you that you can get thru this. I understand that it maybe the hardest thing you have ever faced. But people do get thru things. And sometimes our mind can blow it out of proportion. I am very guilty of that.

    "@Luca, figured you'd like this. Recently, a fearless fawn appeared in my fenced yard. Cooper, my dog, always chases deer. This time, he got close. Nothing happened. All this at the lake house; deer are everywhere here, sometimes 5 or so in the yard at once."

    Those flower buds are so precious, especially since I know how pretty the flowers are once they bloom, ones of my favorites.

    okay, you know a lot about video games, why do so many top-rated games just look like slightly interactive movies? why are they being rated so high as games?

    To answer, I sent you a direct message just now, rather than make a choppy mess with this weird super short post system.

    They aren't being rated high "as games", they are being rated high in terms of how much the reviewer enjoys going through them. I like several of them for what it's worth.

    Well the accursed fireworks seem to finally be done now, after SO MUCH of it yesterday. The nasty part is, the area's big fireworks event happens literally across the street from the house and down the road just a bit. You can watch the whole thing from the kitchen. So you can imagine how much noise we get during the main display. Which just... kept... going.

    My strawberry candies were white/translucent.

    I dont think I've ever seen the packaged strawberry things before. That red thing looks familiar though.

    Classic gaming with romhacks recently. Final Fantasy 4, I always wanted to like, but it was so stupidly easy that I just got bored of it. The "upgraded" version lacks that problem and primarily consists of me yelling things at the screen. In the screenshot, getting completely mangled by whatever that is. I hadnt realized this genre could be such fun, if given real challenge.

    I just found this guy's channel, these are freaking hilarious. And darned impressive. I'd love to learn how to make stuff like this. Blender, really, there's so many reasons for me to learn that at some point.

    So I realized suddenly that I made a big mistake. I switched my Xbox username to “Sophie Carre”. I did not think that through. i told a couple of friends just now that I have the console, and… Yeah, they’re going to ask the name of the new account. Almost guaranteed chance that the gender thing is going to be outed to them in the next day or two. Yay, anxiety spike…. Also iPad typing BAH.
    Misery
    Will be gone for a couple of days. Going to the lake house for the weekend and trying to type using the iPad brings only madness and tragedy. If anyone needs to say anything to me in that time, I will notice DMs. Probably. Internet is wobbly up there.

    I hope you have a really good time at the lake :)
