I finished reformatting that list. I'm not going to post it because the content is all someone else's work, but I consider it my something creative for reasons only known to me.

Still, if someone is playing crisis core and would like a list of what materias fuse into let me know and I'll toss you a copy. I'm sure the creator wouldn't mind that.

In other news, Wall-E is FUCKING ADORABLE. There were many scenes that were so well done that it made my head hurt. It was perfect. Fucking perfect. This from a person who usually hates kids movies with a passion. I'm telling you, it's worth seeing in theaters. SO CUTE.

My something creative is intensely dorky. I mean really. I'm going to go straight to the top of the nerd chart...

.. but I've just spent the last four hours or so converting this faq: http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/psp/file/925138/50921 for Crisis Core into something I can actually read and follow without twitching. It involves color coding and tables.

.. shut up.

In other news, this video makes me smile.

I drewded a beasty thing

but as usual it's not done. I wanna tighten up the pencils and maybe paint it tomorrow.

It's different!

I don't know what it is about earplugs that make Captain Tinybird so happy. The second he sees them in my ears he races to them to pluck them out and play with them. This is MUCH to my dismay.

Then he gives me this delighted expression like I should be happy that he saved me from the noodly earplugs of doom.

We had a party at work, and I brought my camera. I took a ton of pictures, so I'm considering that my something creative. Tomorrow I'll clean them all up. Woowoo!

I also bought a PSP today. It is the nicest freaking thing ever. I was expecting it to be pretty much okay, but it turns out that it's a tiny bundle of awesome. Awesome.

I picked up Crisis Core for it, and I am all kinds of pleased so far. I love the main character. He's a little bit of a wiseass without being overbearing. He's upbeat without being retarded. He's fucking adorable. And whenever he does something cool he gets this look on his face, like, "HAH! Yess!" I thought it was a nice touch.

Totally pleased with self right now. Totally.

This is what I realised when I looked in the mirror before going out with a friend from work;



Which I felt was a bad thing, since we were only going to a bar. So I felt pretty overdressed and rediculous.

But then a friendly dude rescued me by being friendly and charming, so it was all cool. Thank you friendly dude!

I wasn't feelin' anything else tonight, so I goofed around in creature creator again.

dsced 265

Look, I don't know what's going on with Mr. Muscles here. I'm not sure if he's supposed to be the hulk or an overly chiseled eighties rocker gone terribly wrong. I hate pretty much everything about this sketch.



But I think I need to learn how to draw men, so I gave it a good college go.

dsced 264

I drewed a dude hulkin' out, but is not done.

dsced 263

I know I've drawn very similar things before, but I'm also happy how it turned out.

I may or may not paint this later.

dsced 262

I drewded

but it is not done

so you wait until tomorrow.

I am completely burned out.

I didn't sleep friday or saturday, and this morning I got in to work super early to get a project done. I came home around 3:30 and literally passed out.

When I woke up an hour ago I wasn't feeling extra inspired. But I DID get the Spore Creature Creator working, and you know how that stuff is rabid candy to me.

I give you, Redicusaurus!

dsced 260

I paintededed.

dsced 259

Feel like I broke out of my slump with this one. I'm gonna paint it tomorrow.

I worked on another tutorial, but I'm not even a quarter through it yet. I'm kind of excited, but it's suuuuuper hard.

Guess you'll just have to wait and see.

This is the second project from Topsecret Photoshop tutorials. I uh.. changed the text to my own liking. Everything else is the way the tutorial has you do it. I love these things.

dsced 256

Just to prove that I am working on stuff, this is the result of the first Top Secret Photoshop tutorial. I used the project files provided, mostly because I don't have enough pictures of people to work from. I also didn't add all the text, because I ran out of time and wanted to go sleeps.

A friend of mine let me have a set of awesome photoshop tutorials, so that's what I've been doing tonight. I'm pretty excited about it since they come with all the files they use, and it's a video of the guy doing the photoshoppin'. Also that it's the cool effects that I want to use in my own art instead of just your average "use the healing brush to eliminate wrinkles".

The tutorials are at http://www.photoshoptopsecret.com/ I know they're a little steep (about $180 before shipping and handling), but if you're into this sort of thing they're really worth it.

I know it's not something that I came up with myself, but since I've been spending the last hour and a half working on the projects from the first disk, I'm going to call that my something creative.

For teh Father's day I got him a blutooth headset for his phone. Jim filled his gas tank. Then Dad cooked an insane meal of prime rib and fixin's, had a ton of wine and fell asleep all kinds of happy on the couch.

I know that it looks really cruddy, but I was playing around with the color mask in photoshop and I forgot to bother to make it look good.



Had yet another meeting, this one about ways to make our work more awesome to be at. I like the fact that when we came up with ideas, the manager was like "Good, implemented immediately." I also liked that the supervisors were like "I'm stealing your idea." I also liked that when I gave an idea to fix up a bulletin board for our charity events, someone else was willing to do it all up. It's nice to have people actually listen to you and help you.

So the other creative thing I did today was come up with checklists and charts and things for work. If everyone's going to be awesome about it, then so am I.
