I'm thinking about doing a meta post documenting all the mythological references in Odin Sphere. Because moonsheen and I have been doing that anyway, giant geeks that think too much that we are, and might as well make some use of it. Although, mostly I just want to post something of worth to vanillaware instead of my art, because god knows I'm the only one posting there as it is AND THAT WOULD JUST BE A VANITY ACT. I need to figure out how to get people contributing. Ideas???
aaaaaaaah I am being active in LJ fandom again why haven't I learned my lesson yet.
And, of course, today's sketches.

Un-moe-izing Russia!

ETA: should probably explain for the historically unaware! During the Cold War, the prospect of a Nuclear Holocaust had Canada in a more precarious circumstance than other countries because of its global position. If missiles were going to be launched, they would be launched across the North Pole, with Canada sandwiched between Russia and the USA as the battleground. FUN TIMES.
You have no idea how exciting it is for me to put all of Canada's lack of interesting history I learned in highschool to use. NO IDEA. I have, like, comic gags in mind for this shit. Canada kicking ass and no one paying attention in WWII! Poland being his greatest fan! THE BATTLE OF 1812!!!!
.....God. Why am I actively plotting for APH. I DON'T EVEN ACTUALLY SHIP ANYTHING I WOULD LOSE ALL RESPECT FOR MYSELF IF I DID.
ALSO, GUYS, I AM DRAWING SO MUCH MY LEFT HAND (i.e the hand whose sole job is to press CTRL+Z over and over again) IS GETTING SORE. What the hell.
I might be losing the computer to the shop again for a few days. I am actively putting it off because I just want to keep drawing. Even working on a computer freezing every few hours dampers that a lot :\ |
