HEAD. BITCH. IN. CHARGE.

In other news, my thumb is still cut to shit. I tried to draw some the other day, and it ended up shaky and crap, and I ended up in more pain than it was worth. Urgh.

And then I...

( Cut for grotesque bodily injuryCollapse )

I've been kinda quiet for a few days, hmm? There's a reason for that!

I had EPIC walking fail this past tuesday, and man, am I suffering for it. Mary and I were walking over to a friend's apartment, in the same complex as ours, when I managed to roll my ankle on a tree root, and completely bail on standing upright. I hit the ground with both hands and landed on my left side, which in retrospect, was a godsend. My right knee is less stable than my left, and it would have popped right out. Same goes with my right shoulder.

So I sat on the ground for about five minutes while Mary freaked out, both of us convinced that I had broken every bone in my body. But, weirdly enough, I was fine. My hands were a little scratched, but aside from that, there were no other immediate injuries. It was kind of astounding. I guess I've gotten to the point where, if I know I'm falling, it's safer to just go limp. I was almost 100% that I had snapped my ankle, but unless I've developed a healing factor (WOULDN'T THAT BE NICE), I was totally fine.

So that was tuesday. It's thursday now, and I am in so much pain. The worst is my arms, I've got bruises over my wrists, forearms and inner elbows from the impact of hitting the ground. I can hardly hold a fucking pen (so painting and drawing is on hold for the moment, sigh) and my left shoulder is staging a rebellion against the rest of my body. My hips are aching, and my back is all freaking twisted up. Sleeping is a nightmare (Literally. I had some fucked up dreams last night.) and if I sit still for too long, I can't straighten my legs out.

But would I take all of this over breaking or dislocating something? YES THE FUCK I WOULD! I think the only part of my body that's NOT hurting right now are my knees, which is remarkable.

( And now, cut for mushy relationshippy shit.Collapse )

Right. Enough of this sitting around and letting the pain catch up to me. THERE IS WORK TO BE DONE!

My right wrist is KILLING ME. I don't know if I slept weird on it or what, but damn. This shit is made of ouch today.

So! I was going to do this tomorrow, because Sunday is usually our DnD night, but Mary's come down with the same bug I had earlier in the week. So tonight, we shall be staying home and waiting for the Superbowl to cut to the ads, in an attempt to catch the rumored Thor and Captain America TV spots.

But as I said, I was going to do this tomorrow. What am I talking about? A draw for all!

Today only, I will be taking on every request thrown at me, in an attempt to stretch and exercise my hand. I won't be giving out massively detailed, full color pieces. These will most likely be hasty sketches. But I will attempt to draw ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING.

Any fandom, any...ANYTHING. It doesn't matter if I know the fandom or not, that's what google is for. I may produce an actual drawing, it may be a triangle-bodied cartoon. It depends where I go with it.

So! Requests! Go for it! Anything! I have the right to refuse any request for any reason, but I will try my damndest to get at least one picture to every person that comments, from now until midnight tonight. If you're later than that, well...hell. Comment anyway. You never know!

HAVE AT THEE!

EDIT: Yeah, a lot of these will probably be cartoon-style, as it's quick and simple and easy on my hand. I might re-do a few in a more elaborate style later on. <3

Dooot doot doot.

So yesterday, I managed to slip on a patch of ice at the mall, and jarred both of my knees pretty badly. This wouldn't usually be much drama for a lot of people - it's winter, the ground is slippery, you fall down.

For me, it was a hysterical crying gasping not breathing flashbacking stomach churning almost vomiting even. They didn't dislocate, thank god, but it was bad enough to give me a few nightmares. So that was fun. We'll see what tonight brings.

In an effort to distract myself, I decided to make an introduction to all of the new people that have friended me!

So here we go. This is me! An introduction to Flatbear, aka Nicki, in comic form.

Huzzah!

( This is preeeeeetty long.Collapse )

Damn, is there a reason i haven't posted this here, yet?

Forgetfulness? Possibly.

Anyway, here is one of the pieces I am insanely proud of. It took a whole damn day, but it was worth it.

(Mary, whore, if you don't make a mix for this I will gut you. With a bumblebee.)

( Stained Glass Batwoman. Warning, this is a BIG picture, because I didn't have the heart to shrink it.Collapse )

Oooow. My perforated eardrum is giving me ten kinds of pain. TEN KINDS!

Today has been another mixed bag. Lappy gave me hell, but as soon as I got everything working and started drawing, I got a damn illustration job from one of the guys in the bookstore o.O

Win!

So that was awesome. And, to boot, I finally finished Picture Of A Thousand Details, which drove me to madness, and also cartoons.

So here you go, actual art!

( More concept art for Mary's writiiing, and then a bonus metal hand!Collapse )

Whoooo.

I need to get back to porn. Maybe some comics fanart, as my comics have been sorely neglected. Punisher/Daredevil and Steve Rogers/Hawkeye are on the horizon. Cos we can't call him Cap no more!

Goodness. First post in a new LJ. What to say...what to say...

I have bandaids on my index and middle fingers on my right hand. It's making doing EVERYTHING hard.

I'm watching the Oscars, and the screenwriter for Precious is making my cry. These speeches are the best.

Life is life. I'm drawing so much lately, mostly porn. In all honesty, most of it will be posted here, so if you are offended by boys kissing boys...I'm really not sure why I have you friended.

My life is comics, lately. Comics, movies, drawing.

Okay, fuck, I have to take one of these bandaids off. Sadly, my pointing, drawing, typing and masturbating finger is still out of use. FUCK!

That's better. Damn, Queen Latifah looks amazing.

I desperately miss RPing. It's all i can think about at the moment, but I'm having so much trouble getting into a game that will hold my attention. I have one with my darlings whom I love and follow to any game. Sadly, after illness-induced absence, I'm having trouble trying to get back in. Damnit.

That's a wrap! Damn, George Clooney is fine looking.
