itty bitty comic heroines!

[spqrblues]

Blown up for (semi)legibility. And... hm... I've lost track of the count....
And, oh yeah: I work at a place called the CBC. Which I absolutely must quit. Even if it means breaking up the League of Superheroine-ism.

Moa, moa, moa!

If you finish your color portfolio and we get you a gig with greenwillow not only can you quit your job BUT upon publication of your first book I promise to Jeannie out my hair...even if it means extensions.

I swear CBC life would be SO much better if Steve could work there, too. *sigh*

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'd last much longer at a crummy job if there were a Steve bouncing in for head-skritching every now and then, and for doggie-walking breaks. Even a cat who occasionally draped itself across the invoices would be welcome.

Now I have some major incentive for finishing the portfolio. Because my secret goal is to make all my friends Jeannie out their hair. I'd even let you be evil twin Jeannie if you want. She always had those groovy earrings.

P.S. - It's hard to draw a tiny skeletal moa.

Gig with Greenwillow? *perks up ears*
Tell me more . . .

~M,
who should probably get a LJ just to have an identity, even if she doesn't post in it

Shhhhh, you didn't hear anything here. Actually, there's nothing to hear. I just need to show someone my portfolio of colour art, which doesn't exist because I sell or give away all my colour art. Or paint it on walls, which I then neglect to bring with me.

In other news, an editor at one of the smaller children's book publishers wants to look at one of my mss., so please send out general vibes that she doesn't find it utterly boring. I mean, that she finds it bubbly and publishable. I need to work on my "positive outlook."

In other other news, I dreamt all night I was trying to get to Hawaii by bus, but I was barefoot and couldn't find a pair of flipflops I could afford. What does it all mean??!!

It means you've taken a sharp blow to the head by a malicious green pole.

I am sending lotso positive mojo in the direction of said children's book editor.

My nice friend Athenia who I'm too lazy to do a LJ link to at the moment complained that there were too many traumatic children's books and I offered to write one about Shadow-san along with live piccy's to illustrate because he really is very expressive.

She said the idea was "gold." But the poor dear is young and impressionable. LOL. But if I can prostitute my German Shepherd to the children's book industry and live easy... hey, I'm all for it.

I love it! A Charlie's Angels-themed comic! :D

Sounds like situational stress & depression, amica. ::hugs:: I hope you can find another Justice Hall soon.

Hey there. And I needed a reminder to catch back up on your lj--I confess to being really bad about reading my friends list. Every month or so I go, "Oh, heck!" and click on someone's name and hit the backlog. So, ::hugs:: back to you.

You should be made aware that I've been sniffing imps on a regular basis.

[b2creative.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, imps ... I meant to order some ... I wonder if I can find that post waaaaay back with suggestions of which ones I might like ...

Hey, remember the superhero story I wrote for Fusion, with the heroine whose power was the ability to blind criminals with her painfully white skin? I should dig that one up again - if I remember correctly, it was amusing.

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Lurv it.

Also, cool icon. Is there are larger version with more detail?

I found the post with bpal recommendations: here ya go (http://meritahut.livejournal.com/82258.html). Before you order any, let me know what you've decided on, in case I already have it. I have some that are nice but definitely not for me that I should pass along to someone else--and one scent I really don't think is nice at all (I'm looking at you, "De Sade"). We should probably consult with xanath about swapping stuff, too. Not that I was able to resist placing an order right after reading the catalogue.

[b2creative.livejournal.com]

Give you any ideas? ;)

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Wowie. I just love the rich maroons.

Yeah, that might rev up a few ideas in my green-pole-befuddled head.

[dr-phil-physics.livejournal.com]

Now here's how you deal with pointy ears -- streamline them so they curve around your 'do. Love it!

Not that I was able to resist placing an order right after reading the catalogue.

Ahem. Neither was I. I'm going to try to get away with the excuse that the bpal.org board is offline. I did restrain myself to the extent that I only ordered one six pack of imps, though. I'm going to give Rakshasa, Hecate, Aureus, Bengal, Dublin and Debauchery (I have high hopes for this one) a try.

Heck, they're only $16. And I've given up hope on finding a commercially available perfume that doesn't make me smell like a cheap whore.

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Some of the bpal scents make me smell like a really expensive whore. And I kinda like it.

I haven't tried any of the ones on your list, so I look forward to your reviews. I'd just started posting reviews on bpal.org right before it went down. In the meantime I've been getting my fix at bpalanonymous. They have a "Tags" page (linked on the right of the main page) that links to reviews of different scents.

I need to make some bpal icons....

[xanath.livejournal.com]

Yay! :D I've got several imps I don't care for, but I'll have to wait until next Sunday to see which ones they are. What are your favorites so far?

--Kris

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

So far I love Rose Cross and Athens, and I like Bon Vivant and Two Five & Seven. Clio was all right--I was hoping for more oomph. I like oomphy scents. Lightning was nicely fresh and beachy for a little while before turning into seafood. Bess smelled like rotten fruit, but I'll give it another go.

My mother thinks Athens is unbearably stinky, which makes me sad since I could happily drench myself in it but now fear I will terrifyingly offend the people around me. I got some weird frimps (Othello, De Sade). De Sade was all burnt cow to my nose.

I still have some more imps in the box to try. I should make a list.

Hey-- I'm a friend of the tall doe-eyed one, hard at work on my comix contribution, and figured I'd add your ElJay since you draw her much better than I do.

[meritahut.livejournal.com]

Hurrah for new comix contributions.

I've decided it's all in the (doe) eyes with drawing that one. Next time: I draw them even bigger! (Watch out!) She's just going to have to live with being my resident manga character :-)

[mister-punchy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I figured it that way, too. Irregularly giant eyes. And mugging-- mugging's good too:

CRAPPERS CRAPPERS CRAPPERS!
