You know nothing, Jon Snow.


Aw my baby angsty Jon Snow. First, Ygritte, now Melisandre.. You know SOME things, right? Like how to be adorable. This was done super fast, while listening to the Game of Thrones soundtrack. That title music gets me every time.

I keep confusing myself about where I am in the ASOIAF storyline as I'm reading A Dance with Dragons at the same time as re-watching Game of Thrones...

Now going to go make myself a banana smoothie and watch some MORE GoT - the commentaries are amazing, Lena Headey is my new fave.

Noonz


CATZ IN CUPZ! I don't know if this site actually exists or not. BUT IT SHOULD.

This is some fanart for Marc Ellerby's Chloe Noonan: Monster Hunter. And if you haven't read it yet you totally should because it's ace. And Chloe is the best reluctant, moody ginger heroine you have ever seen. I did it because well, basically I haven't drawn anything for a while and I was bored, and it was a choice between doing this or baking cupcakes (I did both in the end).

Now go read and buy it!

Super Late Valentine's Day


Oh man I totally forgot to post this one here. It's a tad late but hey at least it exists! FYI this one wasn't about me, I actually wasn't that ragey this V Day (I know, right?), it was mostly about all the other single girls who were filling up my Facebook timeline with anger.

Roller derby is going greeeeeat, I can go pretty fast and I love falling over, but after reading all the things we need to do to pass our minimum skills test I am kind of scared. Leaping over things?! I bought some proper derby skates too! But they haven't arrived yet, which sucks, so I'm still on my lame disco skates for one more week. I also need to buy new laces, new toe guards, new toe stops and new wheels (I'm going for a pink and black theme) but they can wait until the new skates get here I guess! Super excited.

I also went to an InMe gig last night, I haven't seen them live for about 6-7 years and man I just fell in love with them all over again. I was pretty brave and went al by myself but apart from looking like a loser in between support bands it was actually okay. I managed to get a spot right at the front for InMe, so Dave was practically sweating on me, and my back is probably bruised from all the shoving I took, but yeah it was amaaaazing.

Facebook Cover Take Two

I wanted to update my Facebook cover photo drawing as my hair isn't really like that anymore (even though I haven't even updated my default profile photo), and I had grown bored of the original one. I racked my brains for AGES trying to think of something witty to splash across my page but me being the queen of imagination that I am couldn't think of anything.

Started doing this one:


Then gave up because I'd already done the "favourite things" theme and didn't really want to go there again.

During this time I also discovered that the other end of my tablet pen is actually an eraser! Like a real pencil! Like, if you turn it upside down and use it on the tablet it automatically turns into the eraser tool! Magic.

Anyway, I was running out of time and One Born Any Minute is on soon and in the end I came up with a kind of placeholder if you will.. Although it'll probably be there for a while knowing me. Until I can think of something better.


My faaaace, all over your screeeeen. I doubt anyone actually clicks onto my actual wall anyway, so I've gone through all this trouble for no-one to look at it. But for now I'm off to watch babies being born. I can come back to this tomorrow.

X5-452 reporting for duty


Only 6 days to gooooo. This obsession is taking over my life and I haven't even been to a session yet. But behold my derby name and number! Pretty sure I'm going to stick with these, especially the number. And yes I took it from the amazing (but short-lived) sci-fi series Dark Angel. X5s were a breed of genetically-enhanced supersoldiers, who kicked ass and were generally pretty badass. One of them was Jensen Ackles! If I could I'd probably have Max's number, but X5-452 is probably a bit long to have on the back of a t-shirt.

Plus Smashtronaut is just plain awesome. Space AND smashing stuff! MINE.

Roller Derby


Listening to Sleigh Bells, drawing about roller derby. As you do.

So flippin' EXCITED.

Oh, Sherlock


Super-fast, uncoloured fanart. I should do more of this, drawing people that already exist is easy, it's just thinking of funny words that stumps me.

I really want an awesome puntastic roller derby name, and I cannot think of one for the life of me. It needs to be funny AND mean AND cool. I kinda want Scarbuck like the awesome Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica, but there's already a ScarbuckS registered and I don't want to get into trouble for having a name too similar to another one :( Oh well, I have loads of time to think of one, there's no big rush.
