7000 pageviews WOOT WOOT! Love you people.

I'm working on a couple of lineless pieces (just testing my skills and boundaries...) so expect those within the week. Or at least one of them.

Any good lineless tutorials that you can suggest? (Not like B1nd1's style but more realism...) Realism tutorials even?

Also, does anyone know of a good tutorial on how to paint metal in photoshop? Like really shiny metal?

{ add me on livejournal! i will probably add you back! }

CLEANED OUT THE GALLERIA!

Hallelujah! YAY! It's clean! I got rid of a bunch of ugly scraps. Now I've got OVER 50 deviations! This is awesome. dA, I love you.

Plus, life is so much easier now that I have a subscription. Seriously, if you're ever thinking of getting one and are in the position to - DO IT. It makes browsing so much easier and now I can watch more people because when I look at my messages and see 34 deviations 27 messages, I don't flip out and have to open a billion tabs in firefox.
HECK YES.

Plus journaling is more fun. I think I want to add CSS similar to my livejournal... that would be pretty pretty pretty cool.

...WHY am I awake at 10:10 on a Sunday morning? WHY?

In other news, I am working on creating a set of original characters and set in Victorian London. If you are interested and want a sneak preview go here: [link]

I used this site, which is AMAZING btw for research and general awesomeness. They have the original story of Sweeney Todd up there too.
Dictionary of Victorian London - Social History

I got Sweeney on DVD and I'm really happy with the little documentary in the special features. I have the one-disc edition.

Do any of you have the 2-disc collectors version? If you do, I was wondering, what are the special features included? I know there's the documentary but what else is on there?

Oh, and also, here's to celebrate - over 100 faves on Mrs Lovett Paper Dolls! [link] Thanks guys! <3

And I shall tell no lies. Ask me random stuff and I'll try to answer your questions!

blog blog blog blogging.

I got a Livejournal for general bloggetry, including music and art and other stuff. If you have a livejournal, let me know! And we can be friends! For ever and ever!

Friend me at: [link]

Also, does anyone know how to make your own background styles? Because all of the default ones are super-boring.

ALRIGHT! Come check out all the people who responded! Give them views and faves and love!


<sub>The first 10 people who post in this journal will be featured. I will go through your gallery and choose three of your deviations I like most and post them in my journal for everyone to see. It's pretty much to show you off. Who doesn't want that?
The catch? You gotta put this in your journal as well if you posted.

HI.
I just got rid of a buttload of journals because I feel like starting fresh. I have too many journals saying absolutely nothing and I just felt like getting rid of them.

In the meantime, esscoh has been slightly preoccupied with life and hasn't spent so much time on art. But fear not, for she has some ideas in her head, which will come out on paper... eventually.
