Still fried--I actually got bored enough to color an old old bw pic of Reisarr. And it actually looks good. Scary.

Hold on..--As a bw, this stunk. CG'ed, it's absolutely beautiful. Shane and 'Risma, and I'm proud of this one. Sort of.

I'm very very happy with the end result.. Lyrics © Our Lady Peace, bg © Getty images.

*FLICK*--Yes, guess what? 'Manda got back her pshop. Course, I'm gonna be in deep shit for it, but who the fuck cares? I got to color things on the comp ^^ Like this one o Rianna, fer instance. Holy hell, I'm proud of it.. simply cuzza the angle ^_^ No doubt tho in two months I'm gonna detest it, but oh-freakin-well. Enjoy.

Backround Noise--Some pen doodle of Elijah I found and decided to color. Actually cute, if not a bit cluttered in the backround with conversation.

In motion--I don’t often touch upon the mystic or magic at all with me stories or characters, but these lot are the exception (and Ayzewi too, I suppose ;P ) with Totentanz being at the center of it all. While she, Noel and Willi are of the mystic and magick, Fagan, however, is not. Curious. And godDAMN I be proud of this at th present time =)

Jumbles--Remember this 'un? First front page image thing I ever did have. Why the fuck do I put it up here? Cuz I love it still. Either that or I still have an obsession with th filename, an th filename o the current front image should attest to that...

Doodleydoo-–Another "Mandi doodle". Hehehehehe… ^_^;;

falling a.p.a.r.t.-– And so am I..

A night out back Warnin: Adult blahblahblahwhee-- Mellie n Jamaal, back seat of a car at night. While the backround may've been done completely with a mouse, it looks purty enough. Sides, it is my mouse drawn bg, and I will wallow in it. *wallow*
