A Fuzzbaby Update
May. 3rd, 2006 10:42 pmDecided to switch the Shaws and the Furkin -- I'm planning on doing an abduction with the Shaws soon, so it's probably best if I have the weekend for that. Plus I missed my fuzzbabies.
-DW: Please tell me that's not your new nickname for me.-
-D: Well, it's not quite as embarrassing as Dockie Wockie, you must admit that.-
-OD: And if it inspires fan art plot bunnies. . . .-
-DW: *grin* That is true.-
Yes, they still want me to do that sort-of pin-up idea I came up with -- fuzzy or not.
-M: Why not? Sounds kind of fun to me.-
-VD2: And it involves the girls for once. You yourself admit you need practice drawing women.-
My problem is, it'll never match up to the image in my brain. That is the problem with reading webcomics and seeing good art on a regular basis. When you start drawing yourself, your bad art can never match up to what you think.
-OD: *tentacles chatter scoldingly at me* Your art is not that bad. You can draw decent hands, and you can make characters actually look like who they're supposed to be. Would you even need a fanart muse if you were that bad?-
I know, I know, but still. . . .
-TD: Perhaps I should start work again on that brain printer idea. I kind of abandoned it after my initial breakthrough.-
Hey, I wouldn't complain.
Fan Fiction progress -- making some edits on "V.D.," "My, What Big Teeth You Have," and "Boy Genius." Also wrote a lot in journal-based Boy Genius. Considering drawing.
-VD: That's good that you've gotten back to work on "V.D." I was getting worried there for a little while.-
-M2: Yeah, really. Looks weird for a site called "Back To The Vampire" to focus on everything but the vampire stories.-
Yeah, I know, sowwy. I'm seriously considering getting a beta reader to help me with these edits -- the vampire stories were my earliest stuff on the web, so there's more to edit than usual.
-D: What about the NonTrilogy stuff?-
Well, I did have practice with those. . . .
You know what I really need? To watch the movies again. Memorial Day Weekend is at the end of this month, and if I remember correctly, I get that Monday off. Might be time to plan a movie marathon.
-TD: Sure! I'll build us a popcorn maker while I'm working on the brain-printer!-
We have a popcorn maker.
-TD: That? That is the most useless thing I've ever seen. Why settle for that when you can have a popcorn maker that salts, butters, and delivers the finished popcorn to you -- and can also repel any attack thanks to a energy shield!-
-Victorian-Dressed Marty: You take your popcorn seriously, don't you?-
-TD: Hey, you never know --
*TeenDoc blinks*
*Martys go O.O*
*slams head against desk* Just go into TeenDoc's room. I'll set up another bed for you.
-Victorian-Dressed Marty: *pause* I heard you put up a fuss about this sort of thing.-
-E: Marty?!-
-H: This officially confirms that "Boy Genius" has eaten your brain, hasn't it?-
That and anthros -- I think I sense my own version of a MartyFox hanging around the edges of my brain.
-DW: *calling out* Come on, kid! She's resigned to it!-
-MartyFox: *peeping around doorframe* Really?-
-MDC: Oooo, another one to torment!-
Why do you muses constantly spawn new muses?! Whhhhhyyyy?!
-MartyFox: Hey, how do you know we're here to stay?-
Because I felt you guys poking around earlier. At the very least, you're like the Docs' girlfriends. So come on in and stay the night -- too cold to go traveling anyway.
-Victorian-Dressed Marty: Thanks. Anyway, Emmett, who do you think is going to attack your popcorn?-
-M: O.o Me calling Doc 'Emmett.' Too weird.-
-DW: Please tell me that's not your new nickname for me.-
