Pointers Needed

I'm attempting to make another collaged image, and I want to make (what appears to be) a wire frame in a particular shape. Wire isn't quite giving me the effect I'm shooting for, so I thought perhaps using resin in a very, very thin mold and then spraying it with a metallic paint would work.... anybody got any ideas?

Here, have a scribble. It ain't pretty, but it doesn't have to be.

PORTLAND: the Musical: a Snarky Sort of Preview



ART MAJOR
Love Song #1

I couldn't tell you what color her eyes are
I'm not yet privy to hopes and fears and credo.
And so, you might ask me (along with her first name),
how I can be certain that it's more than libido.
But it's not hard to see, why she captivates me,
Why I can't think of taking it slow....
Because she's an ART MAJOR,
that's all I need to know!

For My Mother

Preliminary Layouts

Obviously, the rivulets atop the letters will go all the
way to the water at the top. I still have to figure out
why it looks crooked despite a myriad of
grids and rulings proclaiming it straight.



EDIT: Si. Is mo'betta.

Is exceptionally mo'betta.

Bonfire, Rekindled



As those of you who frequent this blog are no doubt aware, Bonfire has been M.I.A. for almost a month now. I'd intended to spruce up the not-so-junky bits of it and transfer them to a registered domain name, with the view to building some sort of semiprofessional web presence. Unexpectedly, though, I've found I miss it- there's a great deal to be said for an outlet in which you feel no pressure to be "good"- and thus, I'm resurrecting it, all phoenix-style and shit.

In the spirit of my new resolution to revel in the less than perfect, I offer you a quick character sketch from an upcoming roleplaying game (http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/NECESSARY_EVIL_in_FREEDOM_CITY), in which I play a supervillain named Malignant C. who acquired her powers through chainsmoking alien-irradiated cigarettes. A girl can dream, right?!?

It's a seam. Don't be dirty.
