Oh My!

Posted on by in Alfred Bester, Babylon 5

I put all my little peg dolls in a tin so that I could carry them outside for a photoshoot. I found a beautiful spot, set the tin down, opened the lid, and *gasp!* Bester!


I swear, I did not put him in there like that!

Now that my computer problem is fixed, here are the official graphics for the last two dolls (I, Me and I, Marcus) Both of these will be added to Needles and Pins.


I, Me


I, Marcus

Marcus was made as a gift for my wonderful friend, E.R., so he is not in the I, Me photoshoot. Rest assured, he has a great home now!

Happy Holidays!

~ Here’s to hoping everyone has a fantastic day!

I decided to celebrate the oncoming days off, cubicle style. Enjoy.


“Ms. Mishi is not in right now. May I take a message?”


“Mmm. Cokes.”


“Ah…Nothing like a good nap. I hope the boss doesn’t notice that’s just a hat sitting at my desk…”

Already?

I think things have finally slowed down…Let’s hope I didn’t just jinx myself by typing that! I’ve done a lot of knitting since the last time I posted an update. It was a bit crazy there for a while since I foolishly decided to knit a bunch of things in one month for gifts! Well, at least I know better now!

I had a great four day vacation last weekend and was able to complete a digital drawing I’ve wanted to do since July.

“Lisa Thompson”
800 x 800 px || 2.5 hours || digital

Believe it or not, there is a huge story behind Lisa Thompson that has nothing to do with Babylon 5 aside from the fact that in my head she’s a P7 telepath with the Psi Corps.

Back in July, one of the summer hires sat near me, and we’d make up characters, giving them their own voices. Lisa was my favorite out of my bunch, so I had sketched her out with a ball point pen, Psi Corps badge and all, and pinned her up on one of my cubical walls. I figured it was high time she got digital treatment. The original never left my wall, but since I see it everyday, it wasn’t hard to recreate her (digitally) from memory.
