OH HI!

So I fell off the face of the internet for a bit. Turns out I was somewhere in orbit though.

So I'm doing a thing, and I've stopped doing the other thingie, and this thingie is also kinda suffering BUT no more! I'm done with talking to myself outloud, so now you'll get the benefit. All three of you.

Oh, I found this:

This:

And this:


And I am a little bit addicted to all three. Also this: HYAR : is pretty interesting, don't you think?

So yeah I am back and stuff. Proper post later maybe :3

Guns, Bells and Whistles


I'm back! Did you miss me?

Okay so I’ve been working on this for a while and it’s the reason that my posting has been so quite over here. On the 24th of June, the first My Thingie of the new My Thingie was posted on Drunk Duck. This will be the start of the archive for my website (when I eventually get it) and it will also be the FIRST BOOK. The story will follow me from the last two years of High School (briefly) all the way through to my very sudden bumrush though the doors of Art School.

There will be japes, jinxes and also lots of jokes about bottoms. Oh and of course, the entire reason behind why I want a t-shirt that says “its all about my vagina”.


You can read it by clicking here for the Drunk Duck archive.


I have also submitted My Thingie to several search engines, and the traffic has increased nicely, I am now on my way to actually getting a website. I have decided on a URL, and if it isn’t available when I can afford it, I am actually going to eat someone. And not in the fun way. I’m talking full on, knife and fork, inna pie, Hannibal lector shiz.

You know it.


Man I really need to get writing on the scripts for My Thingie.


In other news:

Felicity Jone will be delayed until after the first 200 pages of My Thingie are done.

Nuffink Doin will continue to be sporadic for the full length of its 1000 pages.

Protanking has been delayed until the first 200 pages of My Thingie are done.

TAXXXX

Okay, so no tag or image for this one, and it will be suprisingly brief.

The rules on tax have changed since the recession got serious, and these changes have been snuck under the radar due to the current "OMG EXPENSES" row and my personal favourite "WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE OF PIGFLU".

You do not have to register as self employed until you turn your comic into a business, as opposed to a source of extra income as this guide suggests. I will deal with the whole business aspect of it here when it comes to it, I don't want to scare off my readers.

Basically you can apply to exempt yourself from paying National Insurance tax if your earnings are below five thousand pounds in a financial year. You may also get TAX RELIEF for earnings in the same bracket, and even though you will still have to send of a check every april to cover your income tax, you will get some if not all of it back. If this confuses you as much as it did me, then you need to go to your local Citizen's Advice Beaureu and ask for more information and some help on the matter. There should be a financial adviser there to talk you through it, primarily because they want to get their hands on your tax cash as fairly and as quickly as possible.

If you are on benefits, you definately need to go to Citizen's advice before earning a single goddess blasted penny. You can now go to jail for a very long time for benefit fraud and trust me: modern jails are just as bad as the old time ones, except now there is more to make a shiv from thanks to the Home Office.

I will update here as to my own personal adventures with the Inland Revenue and some tips learned the hard way.

Luff and stuff - Ree

PS: the credit you earn from advertisers cannot be taxed, but they do have limits on how much you can store on their system and how much you can buy out at a time. So my advice is: if you cant cash it, spend it on advertising campaigns so when you can cash it, you can cash more.

Monday 11 May 2009

I posted this before I gave it a title.


ZOMG I drew blazes in a tag O_O Truly this is the intimacy that I have craved all my life. Anyway!

I am updating step-by-step pages over at My Thingie all week this week, also I may or may have not mentioned that said comic is also now on daily updates due to the fact that I need to push my traffic up just a smidgeon more.

It is actually working quite well.

Also I had to stop reading Heather's blog temporarily as the strength of her observational artwork is truly depressing. I will never be able to draw like that purely and simply because my concentration span is way too short.

My sex drive is so high that concentrating for more than an hour on anything other than sex is really taxing. Mah guys will know what I mean ^_~.

...

Okay maybe not.

O¬O

Anyway!

Have sum videoh:




At first he was saying "my Jescules" and I was like WOAH Frez, this is youtube. But I totally didn't stop watching.

Friday 1 May 2009

Ree-Turn?

So its been about a century since I updated here, and thats mostly because I've been very unwell. (full saga avaliable over at My Thingie).

I delayed the launch of Felicity Jone until I know what I am doing, and I have procrastinated on sorting out my bank details for reasons unknown, and so far have earned a grand total of diddley squat from these comics. HOWEVER, there is light at the end of the proverbial tunnel, and I may have some good news soon.

Being featured really helped ^^ my hits shot up... but have since come back down, however I now have 44 confirmed favouriters and totally faithful readers at Drunk Duck, for which I am insanely greatful. I am not going to do the usual artist's plea for referrals to friends, but you know, it wouldn't hurt.

Anyway, next weeks' comics are going to be MMO themed, and I promise you that the quality will be much better than seen here >

In the meantime heres something funny:


If I was hetero I'd totally marry her. But she'd probably stab me in my sleep.

Thursday 9 April 2009

Buh?!


My Thingie just got Featured over at Drunk Duck.

Also, I have had some upthebutt exams today so I am not feeling so good. Some sort of abdominal stuff is happening on my insides, and whilst personally I am thinking that a good colonic will do the trick, my doctor wants to stick me full of pins.

I share this with you, only because I am forbidden from EVER talking to Blazes about poop. Ever.

So yeah...

I feel all recognised and stuff and kinda positive about things again!

Ossum.

Lush.

Et-cetera.

I am tired. I shall go and ingest more medicines then probably sleeps. Victory dance on my behalf, k?

Mah Feather List


My feather list is getting bigger:

Nuffink doin: All unshaded pages, plus a some minor work on earlier pages.

Felicity Jone:
Pages 2, 3, 6, 7, 8

My new work schedule means I work only on weekdays, with any extra touch up work to be done at the weekends if I have time. Page 7 of FJ is so utterly hideous that I will definately be working on it this weekend.

As soon as I get back into the flow of this, I will not need a feather list at all.

...

Okay so thats probably not true.

I am so lazy =_="

I need to do some life studies but lack motivation. If I did some rude ones would people flock to view them? Would you link them if'n I did?

Hrmmhrmmhrmm...

Monday 6 April 2009

Wootwoot!


There is a very important symbol in this image>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

That feather means that a page will be redrawn in the future. This will mean that the FJ archive will be full of constant suprises and special stuff and wow and yeah.

It has nothing to do with the fact that I am not yet back into the habit of drawing in high detail.

So yeah.

Today I did everything I wanted to do, and later I think I might do a bit more work on some of it. Which is lush. But right now I am going to get a coffee.

Luffs it.

In the meantimes I suggest that you go and read London Underworld, which is a beautiful depiction of 19th Century London and the criminal world. Though not as dark as reality, its just dark enough to still be enjoyable.

Super Crisis Ends!


I need to cut my hair. I have been curling it to keep it out of the way but now thats too much bother to do every single day (for no-one to see how amazing it looks) so I am just going to get some scissors and-

Snip.

My boyfriend wants to do it, but given that everytime he asks me if he can he gets a crazed look and starts to dribble from his mouth: that is not going to happen. Still it will give me something to blog about! AHA.

-_-!"

Anyway!!

Important news first!

My crisis is over, the FJ pages will be ready for next saturday and updates will be constant every monday wednesday friday for the next two weeks, then I am switching to monday-friday for four weeks so that I can get a buffer going, THEN it will be back to monday-wednesday-friday.

And because that probably didn't make any sense, here's a schedule:

FJ Updates:
Monday 13th April
Wednesday 15th April
Friday 17th April

Monday 20th April (Plus some extras)
Wednesday 22nd April
Friday 24th April

Monday 27th April
Friday 1st of May (Plus some extras)

Monday 4th May
Friday 8th May

Monday 11th May
Friday 15th May

Monday 18th May
Friday 22nd May

Then after this updates Monday-Wednesday-Friday.

After this I will not need to do any more schedule changes, because I will have like four weeks of buffer ahead of me at all times. Which will be nice. OH also, Viceroy came back from his haitus, there is a link to his blog here.

But its rude, so don't go there if you're in work.

B LEH


I have not been practicing my drawing skills every day. I have not done any life drawing since I left college, because my model is my boyfriend and I keep having sex with him when he is naked: not drawing.

However there is a reason for this.

I have been kicked back so many times in the last year that I now have no idea where I am going, what I am doing, or how I am going to get there. All my motivation has vanished, most recently due to being kicked by an advertiser and then again by some listings and then again by the banks and just BLEH. The real world sucks, why did I want to be a part of this so badly?

I mean aside from the fact that I actually cannot stand the "Student Lifestyle". Heather and Sophie were awesome in college, serious props to my two favourite ladies, Sam the Duke was pretty awesome too... but they were the only people there that I could stand for more than a minute.

Most of the people I know that have gone to university I no longer talk to because I get sick of hearing about how much they drank or who they want to do or why they are unable to hold a relationship or what they want to do in their gap year. I just. Don't. Care.

That aside.

I just need a break man, you know?

Just ONE leg up.

Or maybe even a toe up.

Tch.

Anyway. Felicity Jone will update on the eleventh though I haven't even started drawing the pages that I am supposed to yet, so its going to be a struggle for the first few months. I need to redo one of the pages for My Thingie next week as its dirrrteh and needs a cleanup, also I have not done much work on Nuffink Doin because I have too much work to do on the others: but would rather waste time. Welcome to my life.

Its hilarious is it not?

Well I find it funny - xoxox Ree

Friday 3 April 2009

LOOMING


The eleventh is looming, and I have made a resolution!

After I get to level 25 on Florensia I am staying off the game until I have finished all the pages I need to upload on the eleventh and in the two weeks afterwards.

Felicity Jone will start updating on the 11th of April.

There will be five pages (the remainder of the prologue) two additions to the double page spread, and six additions to the extras section.

Lush.

Okay?

Okay!

-__-"

Now I'm going to level like the shameless addict that I am.

Thursday 2 April 2009

FLORENSIA

If I am late uploading FJ pages, that is probably because of this. I have a major weakness, and that weakness comes in the form of cute japanese games. Florensia is one such game.

My character is now level 22, but I am now so very badly behind on drawing that if even if I started now and worked solidly through till tomorrow, I would not be able to finish everything on time. Plus I can feel my knowledge of Spanish leaking from my brain at the same time, which sucks as apparently thats where Blazes wants to move to.

We're probably going to live in Marbella with everyone else from working class backgrounds. A sore thumb; I shall stick out like it. But at least this shows a degree of change in my usually stubborn and ornery other half. Ahh well. Babysteps, thats what I keep telling myself. Babysteps.

ANYWAY, I have decided that tonight I am going to draw at least ten strips for Nuffink Doin, then at least three pages of Felicity Jone. Then after that if I am still conscious and without a migraine, I will probably be skulking back to Florensia.

(If you just keep clicking the top option on the login screen you'll find the world I am at. My character name is Essar. Lush.)

Right: Coffee > Crackers > Emails > Drawing :: ACTION GO!

(Yeah I don't know either... - Ree)
PPS: I can find out how to merge letters with the tilde key in word, but I cant make it happen on the intornets! Grnar!

Monday 23 March 2009

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee


I've decided to do some more preparation work before I start drawing the bulk of Felicity Jone has Ruined My Life. Mostly this includes lots of life drawing, but I am also going to be doing a huge number of worldsetting illustrations. Everything from clothing to magic and from buildings to critturs has to be drawn out before I draw it in the comic. This is a lot of work but I will be able to get through it well before I can even SMELL April appoaching.

That said, this week is the week I sort out my finances. Starting with my bank, then paypal, then a second attempt at Project Wonderful and as an additional THEN a jaunt with Google Ads. During this I am also going to be trying to increase hits on all my stuff, and try not to curl up into a ball and die.

Also today an expert said that the recession is likely to last ten years. I would like very much for that man to be shot right in the face.

On a related topic, I am about to go and waste an irresponsible amount of time playing computer games. Tatafahnao - Ree

Neowrneowrneowr


I think there is a bubble in my brain. No joke. I am working with paper and pens for the first time in ages, though I have decided not to use any of the nice liners and markers that I acquired last year, and have gone with EL BIRO. I have to wait for the splodges of typing ink to dry before I can fill in parts of it, and then I have to wait till tomorrow to erase the pencil and scans it in.

I am doing three weeks of these style of drawins for My Thingie and then deciding afterwards if it is easier to do it that way, or the way that I am doin it nao.

Also I have done nothing on FJ. At all.

Happy birthing day to Robyn.

I'm going to go and find out what happened to my social skills now.

- Ree

Monday 16 March 2009

I can't do it while you're watchiiiin.


...

I just had a filling, and I need so much anaesthetic that I know what botox is going to feel like.

I cannot drawwhenIamdentiststoned.

So instead I am going to play the sims. BRB.

Sunday 15 March 2009

Spriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!


Today we had the first proper springtime weather, and as usual its making me contemplate stupid things about converting to WIRELESS. Wireless sucks assballs. Sirriously. Anyway.

I refound Heather's Art Blog, its pretty schweet. We went to art school together, and then I decided that I'd had enough of being told that I was shit, so I did not enroll in the Foundation. Heather did enroll, and as you can see an extra year of deadlines and being told what to do has made an already amazing artist even better. Uhm, you're going to need google translate for that first post thar. Heather is not russian. She is from a farm. Well. Not quite. But close enough.

GOOD NEWS ABOUT FELICITY though, incase anyone from over thar actually reads this: I have roughed out the pages that I need to do, and though its still a lot of work, its not difficult work. So I will get started on that MONDAY. How much I get done is entirely proportionate to how much the dentist decides to sedate me this time. Last time it took like five injections to numb me, so I could be pretty out of it for a whyle.

Lush.

OH also this song is made of springtime. I dare you not to feel happy.

Friday 13 March 2009

Totally Demotivated?


Well, not totally, but pretty close to it. I don't know why, but I just feel so stressed right now, its like, someone is sat on my chest. But they are not because that would be wierd. And make it really hard to draw. Like, seriously.

...

Yes I do not know.

Well I suppose I am not totally demotivated, but when I read things like "Oh I am ONLY getting TEN THOUSAND HITS A DAY" or "OH MY ADS ARE ONLY WORTH LIKE FIVE BUCKS" it starts to irritate me into inaction. Personally I would literally LOVE to have ten thousand hits per day, and five bucks a day? Dude thats schweet. My annual income is currently less then a homeless person, no joke. I am probably going to be living here for the next TEN YEARS. I would flash your mom for five bucks a day. Well not really. If I haven't made any money by christmas then maybe.

...

How would that work? I mean, would you pay for that on paypal, or would that be like a pay-per-view or a subscription or what? Is it porn if its flashing? Or just tongue-in-cheek sillyness.

Is anyone actually aroused by that anymore?

...

Comment me up! I'm sure enquiring minds want to know O.o

Projeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeect.


So I finally did something about Project Wonderful.

In four days I will know how that went.

Ossum.

In the meantime, I have decided to include an image in every blog post which best illustrates both my mood and it's content. Because that seems like the way to go, and also because my eyes have started to skip over my own writing, which cannot ever be a good thing.

Lush.

Also hi, this is the first year I have not given anything to Comic Relief. I do not even feel a little bit guilty.

Tuesday 10 March 2009

PAGES

FJ is now massively behind on pages and MY THINGIE's buffer is so thin its barely even a smear. AGG. How did this happen, you may ask, well... I have no idea. I have been drawing, but also procrastinating on it, because other things were more important. Plus when I did get time to draw, that little adventure in retail banking completely took the wind out of my sails.

Still, I am working today and although it is not as fast or as thorough as I had hoped it would be by this stage, its still work. I think I will be able to get most of the launch pages up in time for tomorrow, but I am having to push actual updates back by about a month, which really makes me feel sick to the stomach but ah well.

The reasons and goings on in my life that lead to this will be fully documented in MY THINGIE over the next few weeks.

Annyhu.

I am going back to drawding nao. Luff and stuff - Ree

Sunday 8 March 2009

My Youngest Brother

My youngest brother is really spiteful. At the slightest mention of the word NO he goes into a mood and starts verbally sniping at everyone around him.

Twice in the past week he has really badly hurt me, and I am really getting close to just turning around and telling him to go and f*ck himself RIGHT off. I am completely serious.

I have saved this little bastard's life, so, many, fucking times. I have sacrificed oppertunities so that he could have options. I have helped him to get the grades he needs to have the future he wants. He is a thankless, horrible, spiteful little wretch. Blood may be thicker than water, but the blood in question is going to turn bad if he doesn't stop hurting the people who care about him most.

I'm really sick of being treated like crap for people I have only ever tried to help.

Wednesday 4 March 2009

Rawk Your Body Rawk



Maaaaaaan, thats good musics. I smell smoke over on My Myspace, I am getting messages from people asking as to the nature of my relations with Blazes. He has not texted me in quite some time, and I have no credit with which to texteth him. Hrrm hrrm hrrm. Add me to your friends if you like x-x-x - Ree

Tuesday 3 March 2009

FINALLY

I have finally started working on pages for FJ again and MAN it feels so good.

I have decided to work in three steps. Step one is the roughwork straight from the script, step two is the neat lineart and framing, then step three is the final linework and shading. At step two the pages are readable enough to go online, which is when I shrink them and put them up so I can meet my upload dates.

When I have uploaded a year's worth of pages, then I will start working back over them and getting them up to a higher standard for print. Its a lengthy process but at least it works. I just found that one of the pages from my script, a short passage of text not even a paragraph long just translated into SEVEN pages worth of comic strippery. Theres a lot of scenery work in the first ten pages, and I am not really happy with them yet, but if I can finish them to a high standard with the print lineart then I think they will be stunning.

I have added some more links to the My Thingie Links Page. In closing have a RETRO COMIC from three months before I started ART SCHOOL.

Doodles was just that, doodlins, which I don't really count as drawing as there isn't really any improvement over the course of it, and it wasn't to express anything through artwork. It was just a meme passed back and forth between me and some friends.

If I can find someone who still has some of them I will dig them out and put them up somewhere, maybe.

EXTRAS!

Wootwoot! Extras and stuff now avaliable over on Felicity Jone has Ruined My Life. Well AN extra anyway, the rest of those files will be worked on and uploaded over the next few days. I really need to get started on the pages for the launch, so far I am still not even done with page 2, so I really need to get a move on.

You can start at the beginning of FJHRML here.

I also need to get a whole buncha pages done for MY THINGIE which is almost at the end of the buffer. Why am I procrastinating? I have no idea. At least I don't have any scripts to write, as they are all done and dusted.

Oh, and because I didn't mention it. Blazes came to stay for the weekend and we had gudd times and he alleviated some of the emo that I had been suffering from in the past two weeks. Which was good. I miss him already though. Cusses to falling in love with a guy too far aways T_T. Then again, I don't really like the guys in this area, so it was bound to happen eventually o.o.

I am off to draw'd nao. Will spam with updates later, kay? xx - Ree

Sunday 1 March 2009

You can be as loud as the hell you want...



Its true. Unless you are at your parents house.

o.o

I have become a pokemon widow. Blazes got a DS, and he got pokemon, and he is playin it a lot. If I didn't know how addictive that game can be, I'd be worried that I wasn't entertaining enough for him. As it is, I know I am not, and I am perfectly okay with that. Ahh romance.

Maria's Character Page went up today at FJ. Its the one I am most happy with. Lush.

Take her home! She's wasted! Yaaaaaaaay!

Thursday 26 February 2009

I want one of everything from this store. Kate Beaton is the most amazing lady to have ever existed. Sirriously you guys.

Her main website/blog can be found here. Go and read her history comics. Lush.

The downward descent...

... I've somehow attained a catchprase. I say it at least seven times a day without realising, and when I catch myself it makes me laugh in that private way that one reserves for moments when the vicar mispronounces something Latin and makes a sermon sound rude.

The worst part is, that this phrase not only completely suits my life but also my recent attitude towards the world.

Are you ready?

Its groundbreaking sh*t.

REE's CATCHPHRASE IS:
-aaand no. I just don't care.

...

Usually followed by "off".

Christ, when did I become to apathetic?

Tuesday 24 February 2009

Manuel Carrasco.

His voice is just so pretty, and he is pretty, and the lyrics are pretty, and just... pretty.





My favourite song found here because they won't let me embed because they suck.

He ticks all the boxes: dark hair, brown eyes, designer stubble, voice that melts me...

*swoon*

His voice is just... man.

Lush.

In related news, I just put up the FELICITY JONE PAGES over on drunkduck. Imma link and blog about it tomorrow. Love and stuff.

Whaaa?

I finally fixed my wardrobe, and put all the stuff that was hung precariously on my walls back inside, and now my room feels really empty. So then I decided to do a canvas for my wall, just something black and white and simple with all the people in my life I think are awesome and worthy of being forever remembered on it.

...

I've run out of people, and there's still loads of white space. Either I have become Billy-no-mates over the past few months, or I have lost faith in 90% of humanity.

Or its both.

Which is the most likely answer.

So now I have to lower my standards from "people that are awesome" to just "people that I know" and see how much space I can fill up with that. If I ever do another one of these I totally have to plan for it first, that or just choose to do it on a smaller canvas, instead of something three feet tall. So far I liked it, but its awakened the pokemon instinct in me, and now I just want to collect people so I can put them on the canvas.

Must... have... them all!

...

It is pancake day today. I shall eat many. I have been deliberately not snacking so that I can have space for at least one if not two pancakes. I must eats them. I must eats them all!

Eh! I don't know whats going on with this post. I think its the fixative acting on my brain.

How cute is the mini cover page for Nuffink Doin?



I still have to do the banner, and all the pages but yeah. I like the mini cover page, I like it a lot here, here, here, here, here, here and here, also here.

Whelp.

I know now its just a day. So I don't have to spend six hours drawing and three hours trying to get words to come across properly and another hour trying to remember a password so I can send him the links... which he hasn't saved.

Its just. A day.

Ahh well. Next year I won't have to bother, then.

Ouch.

...

Blazes didn't see what I made for him, and didn't get in touch with me at all today.

...

I feel really cold, neglected and vulnerable.

Saturday 21 February 2009

OMG

I just made a startling discovery. I do not know the moves to The Macarena, Saterday Night OR Upside Your Head. Dubble-ewe-tee-eff happened to my knowledge of Western Party CHEESE?

Ah well.

I don't really feel disadvantaged unless I am in a room full of people who know how to, and I am being dragged to dance with them, and I AM AT THE FRONT OF THE PHOTOS. GODs I hope they don't find their way to facebook. Though you know they will. Its going to suckassballs.

Well not really.

*went to a partay*

A WHOLE YEAR



It was evening. Their eyes met across the short space. Surveying his guest with eyes like emeralds, soaking in the contrast between the electric tones and the formal scenery. Blaze, he was called and Blaze he was. Everything about him spoke of unchecked fire; of flames; of passionate desire. He smiled at his guest, and remarked with calculated tones "I like your tiger... is it new?"
Blaze nodded in assent "Its f'ckin lush, babes"
The electric blue kitten, dull behind the eyes merly flicked its tail. It too did not belong here, but was more than welcome.
"So what prompted you to message me?" The host remarked, offhanded,
"Saw ur piks on ur page"
"Oh?" He smiled
"Yeah, you're well fit, babes"
"I'm well taken, too"
"Ahh well. I can wait..."
The host laughed, charmed by the certainty of his guest's manner. This was the start of something else...

Okay so admittedly I could have just said "We met on IMVU when it was still full of VIRUS" but that would have been boring! When I was still with my ex, Blazes sought me out, and began the slow process (in his words) of 'winning me over'. At the time I was bottle blonde, tanned and lovelorn, in a relationship with someone who would never feel the same way about me as I did about him (and prooved it several months later). He could have had me then, but he waited until I was more... receptive.

A year and a month later, I was feeling down and bloo and he said "Call me". At first he thought I would be a fling, but even so he spent a month taking my calls each night at ten and listening to what I had to say, talking back and discussing anything and everything that was on his mind. He helped me to heal after a rough year and an even rougher breakup, and I did something he didn't expect.

He came down to meet me.

He asked me out.

After 3 hours, I became much more than just a fling.

Blazes helped me to recover myself, and I unknowingly helped him to learn to love.

He is my most important person.

We didn't have much of a courtship, due largely to the fact that even after a year of healing I still have agrophobia triggered by several violent attacks on the way to and from my house. Chavs, are really not my favourite people. But still I tried my best to make what we were building as romantic as possible.

Sorta.

...

We watched a LOT of Anime.
It started with PRINCESS PRINCESS
Then Gravitation
Then Azumanga DIOH
Theeeen Ouran Host Club
Then Rosario to Banpia
Then Vampire Kishi
...
Also HELL GIRL

Mostly we were snuggled in the dark, and sometimes we didn't see all the episodes. Mostly cos I was playing with his funstick.

Mrrmm hehehe. We also watched a lot of movies, some scary and some fabulous. Oh and he managed to get me singing about putting people into pies (we like to duet... hes LOVETT XD) spent hours talking into many tomorrows, and watching SATC reruns on Paramount. He has discovered ways to make me (NSFW>) feel good that no-one else ever has, and is the only one who has ever really EVER made me want them every minute of the day (Sirriously sometimes its like I am on FIRE).

My Blazes... I love you with all my heart.

I really truly do want to spend the rest of my life with you.

IMMENSE

I found THIS. Its the official website of the place I want to move to.

In order to do this, I shall have to accumulate close on £350,000 pounds.

So far I have fourty.

...

I HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO.

Look on that website under "society and culture". XD All they have are listings for bars and hotels. Clearly you are just meant to get drunk and use a hotel there. LUSH. Haha, sirriously though. I has a looooorng wai to go.

ZOMFG its JUSTIN


I KNOW HIM. I KNOW THAT GUY.

I tought him about penetration.

-_-"

PHOTOSPAM

OH HAI.

I am trying to do some work. But its not going so well. SO LOOKIT WHAT I FOUND.
So yeah I was feeling vain. Above is me, below is me, the one above was intended to pique Blazes' interest... it failed. Spectacularly.

DRAW'D

The ending of Dungeon Siege 2 is really dissapointing. AND AS A SPECIAL REWARD, you can replay the entire thing, but everything is HARDER TO KILL. Oh yeah. Ahh well.

I HAVE BEEN DRAWING AGAIN TODAY.

Okay so all I have really done so far is to add blood splats to the first page, BUT I have started on the SECOND PAGE and as you can probably gather from the sarcasm festering in my written voice, thats a little bit behind where I wanted to be at this point. Eh, 'smy own fault for procrastinating like a sumb'tch but eh, whatcanyado?

I have like four days now till the deadline I set myself to get the first ninteen pages done and I am thinking thats probably not going to happen. If I get to page ten before monday, then I'll be happy. Oh also its my anniversary with Blazes this weekend so expect a hella-long post about it.

In the meantime HERES ROCCI. I subscribed to him because he was good lookin, but it turns out hes kinda funny too in the ADD way.



I was a walker, cos I live in Britain and busses never go to where the people with munneh live. -_-"

Tuesday 17 February 2009

Mrrnnrnr.

Cusses. I can't stop playing Dungeon Siege II when I really should be drawing, but if I stop myself from playing it and force myself to draw, I will quickly go back to playing it again and ultimately not draw enough.

So I have to now keep playing until I complete it, and that SHOULD then free my mind up for drawing again.

Grrn.

Its one of the many half-finished leisure activities from the christmas period that keep niggling at me. I know that once I finish them then I can dedicate all my time to drawing, but that would take like, three weeks of solid distraction, and I really need to get the pages done as soon as possible. This should give you alarming insight into how my mind works. -_-"

Greeeeeeeat.

Mneh.

I am going to try and finish the game before midday tomorrow, so I can finally get on and do the pages for the launch and then the updates after it.

No big, right?

Mrrn.

Monday 16 February 2009

Because I'm sure someone other than my grandad cares...

...


#139 in Comic Strip #535 Overall

Oh yeah. Page 7 in the catagory browse. Schweet. I am probably going to repeat these pointless STAT posts with the Felicity Jone comic... just a heads up. By probably I mean definately.

In other news: I still haven't finished the first page of FJ T_T I am workin on it but its taking longer than I aspected and now I am all nervous and stuff but also still totally excited and its a really wierd conflict and its leading to hyperactivity which would be okay but Blazes is getting sick of me bounding off the walls.

Hmm.

Ah well.

I am definately going to finish it today, but I have hella loads of housework to do. Cusses.

Sunday 15 February 2009

Ooo-ooooo-oooo!

Lalalala!

Hehehe.

So yeah, all is good, again. The pages are coming along a little more slowly than I anticipated because I am working to a much higher level of quality than I am used to, but as with all things, once I've picked it up I am going to be churning things out in rapid succession.

Which will be fun.

All is good.

WANTED

I just watched this film. Oh. My God. F*=+ing AWESOME. Its all like PYEOWandBOOOMandpyewpyewandcurvedfrikkenbulletsandAngelinaJolieandJames-fitty-fitt-fit-McAvoybeinallAmericanandshizandMorganFreemansaying"Kill this mother f*+-er"andzommmgggg.

Man I love that film.

Its just eclipsed everything else I have ever seen as my all time favourite movie.

Even though I had to wait like, six months to see it. First I missed it in cinemas on account of being a pussy. Then I missed it on DVD cos my dad bought it and wouldn't let anyone open it and its been taunting me for months saying "watch me Reeeeeeeeee. Please Reeeeeeee, just take me outta my package and slip me into the DVD player. You know you waant toooo. WATCH ME. WATCH ME NAO". Which as you can imagine is fairly annoying, especially since it did it in my own voice, and when you talk to yourself as much as I do, you get sick of hearing it.

Wooooow.

I just had a total MOVIEgasm.

M-M-mmm. James McAvoy.

Man if it were a choice between him and Blazes I would be in HELL. Of course I'd pick Blazes, and I am not just saying that because its Valentines day, but man the look on my face would be priceless. XD

Thank god hes hetero so I will never be in that position.

I AM SO EXCITED I COULD LITERALLY PEEE


Thats the PREVIEW of the cover for my new graphic novel, the name of which is very very barely visible in the bottom corner. This is the main character, Felicity Jone, doing stuff. She is kick ass awesome.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Christ. Theres no hope of ever regaining my street cred after so many spontaneous fits of giggling, I am really excited about starting this project and cannot wait to get stuck in; though I have to at least till tomorrow or else I'm gonna do myself perminant damage. Anyyvey, this is lush.

I like it.

The finished one is even better. I am so happy right now.

Lush.


I shouldn't really be sharing this with you, as its a sneak peak at the work I am doing on my new comic... but its just too far lush to keep to myself. This is one of the main characters. Isn't she just divine? (If I do say so myself!)

I'm aiming to launch the comic in the second week of March!

Haha, my boyfriend:

The eternal romantic. I texted him summit saucy to keep him tickin over till lator (a photo you will NEVER see and an offer to have me for lunch) and he texted back werd fo werd:
"Very tempting but sushi will have to do honey Hehe x x"
XD
Oh yeah. I must be the luckiest man alive. Srysly.
Hahaha.

I luffs him though.

In other news, I've fallen into a hole of FROUFROU and someone greased the sides. Not complaining though, its ver' relaxin.


OH and incase you were wondering DCS got back to me, so I will post the linkage to the fanards if they get posted on the WIRES 2 site. Which was ossum. Oh and MY THINGIE got sum more ranks see:

#176 in Comic Strip #671 Overall
Its annoying that I'm hovering round the #170s, but #671 is the lowest its ever been. Which is good news bears, specially since I am using this comic to inform how I approach the next one. My first graphic novel is now all written and doubled over all the way up to CHAPTER 2, so I am going to start drawing once I finish with the character pages and periphery extras I need for the before bit on the comic. Yeah? Yeah. Lush. Anyway, heres another FrouFrou for your troubles.

Oh man!

I love love love April Winchell. Vintage 07 Shows = shibby.

I have LOL'd out loud so many times in the last hour it untrue. In other news, I made some fanarts for DCS over at WIRES 2 on Drunkduck. But they were onlee sent off today and there has been no reply, so incase they get veto'd for being too wrong, HERE THEY ARE:

or not.

Because the blogger thing has internal errors. Which is probably for the best as when my boyfriend Blazes heard the punchline, he out and rightly so, refused to read either of them.

Thats just how I roll, yo.

Werd.

Wednesday 11 February 2009

... Oh dear.

I just found out that one of my brother's bluetooth tag is "The God of the Retards".

I'm not sure which.

It applies to both.

XD

Tuesday 10 February 2009

I have updated the skinning and artwork on My Thingie! I tried to do the same over here but the magical jiggery pokery was having NONE of it. Ahh well. One day they will look similar, I am determined of it.

My Thingie will update again tomorrow.

I am luffing off of the design <3


IN OTHER NEWS:
Jimmi gonnae munnae...

Come back Jimmi.

Thats been in my head on repeat pretty much all day. It would drive me mad if I didn't love it so much, I really need to get KALA. Ah well.

Hee!

GLEE!

22:41 - 09th February 2009
My Thingie just got into the top 1000 on DRUNKDUCK.

DrunkDuck Rank:
#248 in Comic Strip #950 Overall


I know its still not anywhere near as impressive as top 100... but I am still super happy with that ^_^

Plus 248 is the highest ranking I've had in the Strips Catagory for a while. This has given me the drive to put more work into the humour and aim for at least the #500 spot overall and top #100 in strips! *fireineyes*.

LD---Nnno. Get out.

ill
My Thingie has updated today. Normally the schedule is Tuesday-Thursday, but I felt the overwhelming need to share the results of a late night drawing binge.

When I was a teenager I was much more interesting. This is an illustration depicting the only time I ever went in drag, walking around posh bits of London whilst flipping off passing hecklers in cars. I won't tell you how old I was, but you can probably guess that I wasn't old enough.

This is the roots of new artwerk stylin. I begin nao, yes? I still need to smooth things out and work out some of the flaws in the process, but I am loving on how this has turned out, and will use this method of drawing in my upcoming Fantasy Graphic Novel set in the world of Rue.

Which I still haven't completed the plotwork for, but thats about par for my life at the moment. I'm jugglin too much.

In related news, you should all check out Rainbow Connection and Rex Ryder; two fabby gay themed comics from Steven Prokop. If you have the time you should also browse through Pixie Beam's Sensual Poetry, which is so LUSH it's dripping and would make even the most manly of men consider dressing like a laydee.

Howmanny?



This is what the inside of my head sounds like.

Yeah, probably.

Hello!

My name is S.R.Q, mostly known as Ree and sometimes called other things more colourful. I am trying my best to become an author, both of graphic novels and the regular sort. This is my blog! I shall post about things that amuse me, and things that are informative, and things that make me smile, and things that are other things but not quite. Yeah?

I am not sure.

Anyway, this is my first post.

Here are some links to my other stuff online:
My Thingie, Nuffink Doin, My Deviant Art, My Myspace

Sorted.
