Pokey Kittehs...

... want outside... finally.
We're currently installing (or trying to) the cat wire network outside on the balcony. Birdie HD TV in that case.

Kulla speed-felting *yowzaaa*

Awwww! Kulla looks a bit gloomy but hell, I never knew how to felt so this is epic anyway.

On monday I had one of those rare moments - in the middle of a night- where I knew a idea was creeping right into my head. I can't explain it in any better way but it's like sensing something's coming up and if you're lucky it doesn't vanish right before you can grab it.
I can remember every three times I had that moments and all were book plot moments. I know I'm a whack...

Anybody else every experienced it?

Flip it, Babe! -Photoshop and OpenGL

The Rotation tool of Photoshop CS5 is one of the best inventions ever. I supsected CS5 wouldn't offer (to me) anything I really love but ... gods, I love rotation when I need straight(er) lines and it comes in handy if you need to ink or work neat.

don't ask what the motive is.... anyways, big file is big. I guess you'll be able to see everything....

I know Painter had it for ages but as some people might have painfully experienced Painter seems to be unable to NOT crash. I mostly work with 600 dpi and I doubt Painter would have liked my game board with 2 m width and 600 dpi.

Hope somebody didn't know the Rotation tool and loves it as much as I do now :)

Art Academy Bao

Lazy ass at the moment. I'm always tired but since the Nintendo DSi is so small and light I'd favor it as my couch buddy right now. Everybody's heading to Leipzig right now... I travel into the opposite direction and spend my week-end in Hamburg with Sonja.

Official Queen Shirt Contest!

Sylvia from Talenthouse send me the news about the shirt-contest for Queen. If you don't know Queen- baddddddd. Actually the rockband was MY teenage-band. Other girls ogled at Caught in the Act and Backstreet Boys posters. I worshipped Queen.
That's why I spread the news.

Deadline: 19th of April

Price: 1.500 USD and worldwide exposure. You might think -dammit, Anne... exposure wtf....
BUT: The sales of the shirts help all those people fighting against AIDS. Good news to raise your Karma points

Anne :)

Zugreifen! :D

This time mostly for German people interesting! Amazon dropped the price of "Draco" which means you're able to get the boardgame for 14 Euro (which is .. nothing to be honest).
Schmidt Spiele 49243 - Draco

If anybody got a chance to play it: let me know what you think of it. I'm still fighting with fairies, my chubbanimals, spaceships and unicorns. Wonderful combination o_O but I guess it could be worse.

Photo Updates of Hantje and Tretje soon. :3

Sir Bogard- Soapboxed

 some details.... I still like to paint roughly with my normal brush and add some -even rougher- details with textured brushes here and there. Over the last months of comic painting I did so many new brushes (not always with the desired result) I 100%ly have to sort those soon =.=

And the final Bogard. Colorful illustration is colorful.
