Still in a piss poor mood. Actually, it's probably worse as a headache has descended along with utter exhaustion. After I post this and the next segment of story, I'm off to bed. Or tv room. Although I've been too prone to cold for much basement lounging.

Anyway, I decided to keep boredom at bay by pulling out one of my unfinished files and playing with it. GIMPing is an easy way to spend a lot of time... and it's fun as long as the mouse keeps moving as I want it to. (Grr.)

( Blown Away )

Geoff and Babe have disappeared. *shrug* I'm sure they'll turn up somewhere at some point.

In my search for them, I got on my bike and rode a bit. Not a very long ride, in fact it was a very, very short ride, but it was good to do. Even if it does prove that I am pathetically, horribly, shamefully out of shape. *shrug* It's my own darn fault.

But having the house to myself leaves me in a quandry. What do I do now? Do I paint? Hmm. That would be a very good thing to do, but I think I might wait until the light is a little dimmer so as to control the lighting of my arrangement a little more.

Write? That's another good idea. Question is, what do I write? There are the meme prompts I owe to

maddyriddle and

pigwidgeon37, there's the half-written chapter of SMHC, there's the expansion "No Comparison" needs, and then there's the graphic novel I have yet to start. Of course, I really need to figure out the main character's past before I write very far into that one. What was her role in the Apocolypse? Why are They out to get her? What is her motivation in being the Guardian?

Speaking of which, remember this pic I posted a while ago? Well, here's what it's based off of, which is what I'm thinking of using as my cover image for my graphic novel.

( The Guardian )

I think I'll limber up with the prompts first. :-)

Playing around with GIMP some more.

( Eye of Horus )

It's been a while since I've done anything that's not, um, fandom related, so I thought I'd bring out the GIMP tonight and play around some more. This is the result:

( Untitled, as always )

Reloaded to show edited version. Geoff didn't like the void of the previous version...

And because I'm feeling very medi'ochre' (sorry, I can't help it) at the moment...

*HUGS* TOTAL!
give averygoodun more *HUGS*

Get hugs of your own

First, I'd like to mention that my scabiosa, which was looking like it had a week to go before it bloomed for the very first time, was broken off. Smashed to the ground. Sundered. I am less than pleased. I do not want to have to resort to those 2' high wire fences to protect my garden. They're ugly and tacky and I'd much prefer it if the kids (including my own) would just keep. off. the. bloody. garden.

Not pleased at all.

Second, I'm also not pleased about the picture behind the cut. I've decided that there are so many things inherently wrong with it that I'm not going to bother finishing it more than I already have. What bothers me about this failure is that I really like Snape's face. That and I've put an awful lot of hours into this and only in the last couple days have I realized that no matter how much I work on Hermione's face to make it look halfway decent, the picture is still buggered due to other (numerous) factors.

This doesn't please me, either.

( bleh )

I think I'm going to go have a chocolate cookie and go soak my head. Or similar.

It loses some of the charm it has as a pencil drawing, but I still like it.

( The Book )

Remember it's best full sized. It can also be seen here.

Now off to... eat breakfast, I suppose. And then maybe work a bit on some ideas I have.

Still not done completely, but I think it's working a little better now.

( Dear Heart )

I'm satisfied enough that I've put it up on my deviant page along with a bit of story text.

Next up will probably be a cleaned up version of "The Book." Maybe.

This is another version of another pic I'm working on. I like this version possibly better than the first, but they have such very, very different feelings that... Yeah, well, here's ( 'This is not a love scene' )

Here's something I've been working on. Or one thing I've been working on, anyway.

( Read more... )

It's also here.

I uploaded the previous pic (now titled "Angels") over at DeviantArt. http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/55684639/

Tonight I finally started playing with layers. Boy, does it make life easier!

( Artsies )

Current Mood: accomplished

And here's another pic as Imess around with the GIMP some more.

This one is pretty darn simple. Probably simplistic, actually. Ach well, I'm just playing.

( Another one taken from a fall photo of mine )

'Night all.

Here's an unfinished snippet of what I'm currently working on in-between playing with all those fabulous filters on the GIMP.

( Snippet is work safe, though finished piece might be pushing it )

Bring out GIMP again...

( Untitled as of yet... any suggestions? )

Now to bed - where I should have been four hours ago.

( 'Morning Sun' )

Too bad the fractal thing broke before I finished.

Now, to bed, before that sun shows up.
