On friday I got a mail including two concepts. Not bad. The only problem is: I should have gotten those concepts 5 WEEKS ago. Ugh... 10 days left to create something out of nothing. And because Irene and me are a pretty nice team (the other job was an experience we might not want to re-experience though) and she said yes for another row... it´s two people hanging over their drawing tables working on something too heavy for ten days but too cool to say no. I cross my fingers that the team likes the concepts. @_@
Anyways... it´s creepy how much time you spend on thinking: "Does it makes sense?" (of course but logic things are not supposed to look cool which is bad.. sometimes).
The right one arrived today... squished into my post box... but everything okay. I was so happy >_< Isn´t it cute? The left one was a gift I got at the big deviantArt Meeting in Berlin... it´s so fuzzy :3
This one is still in the box. See the awesome work here. I can´t even describe how fine and beautiful the thing is in real. One reason why I HAD to order some glass doors for the next cup-board. Would be a shame if a cat (or nephew) destroyed it @_@
The artist and a bigger image can be found here. Irene was so nice to send it to me and I was like "oh my gawd.. .she works so neat" (I don´t... and I would never paint on paper... but she did and it is great!). I still need a frame for it but I couldn´t find any fitting one in Ikea which means this week I have to look at the normal photo store. I so much want to put it on my "Wall of Fame"
I still need to send out the books for the contest. Why I haven´t done it? Because one was missing. I don´t even have one left... all gone. No idea why... so I had to order two. The books will leave on Friday. @_@
I´m still waiting for my new coloured pencils to arrive :( I hope those will be here next week. I have some requested illustrations I won´t be able to do with Photoshop. arggg! >_<
Pong in his fridge. He got a sun-burn...
working on commissions... (weeee!) (pencil is a TK9400 - 2H, Faber Castell)
my new classic pen. I love this one. It´s slimmer than the normal Intuos pen and made of plastic without rubber wrap but I like it more like that. The rubber tended to crack up.... I guess it won´t happen with this one and it´s easier for me to clean. But again... 80 bucks!
weee!² I still need some wooden boxes for my monitors. "Harry Potter" and a book of Jimmy Carter won´t do it forever... o_o
i wish I would be faster... I like to do those... and at the moment I have to. I thought I would have more time after my last book-project but so many things pile up. Incredible. Not that I complain... I love to do those things atm >_<
Yesterday was the big deviantart-meeting in Berlin and man, I was so curious who would come. >_<> I was so unbelievably tired the whole time I just wanted to sit down and sleep and crawl onto my couch. :( Dang! (that´s what I did today and I wish I could do it some more hours...)
I guess Angelo would make the best guru ever. I don´t know how often he explained the new features but seems like the sparkle-glow in his eyes wouldn´t stop... even if he had to explain it a millionth time again. I just wish I could have stayed longer (couldn´t because of nasty cramps) and payed more attention to the new faces (didn´t because I was tired and thought all the time about memorizing the nicknames of the people who i was actually talking with.... don´t have to mention that I failed anyway even with that >_>; ).
I totally forogt to take some photos although my camera was in my bag (how stupid is that... Anne... come on... ) but I just hope Angelo or Heidi will upload some pics sooner or later.
What a week... won´t forget it. This won´t happen too often in life-time, i guess.
Things to do: Les Dames (10 of 12 >_<) three open commissions (still two slots open... uh) trying to save up another 500 bucks... lottery? maybe?... sleep sleep more finishing a new bao
I hope my normal happy mode will start tomorrow again (happy mode= annoy people with being unbelievably happy about everything... my regular 7-days-a-week-mode).
