I want to be clear about one thing--I've never liked Disney's version of the Peter Pan story.

I've been re-discovering my love for Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates with Tim Curry as the voice of Hook.

As happens with a lot of things I "rediscover", I've begun researching the mythology of Peter Pan on Wikipedia. And I've come across some ideas that I'd never really entertained before--mostly some of the morbid overtones, and deathly connotations that story itself represents. So, I'm planning on making a series of Pan related artwork. It will be my own vision of that character (since there really isn't a standard of how he looks) and how he relates to the "real world"...which I'm hoping will come across as creepily as I read it.

I've looked through the deviations on here, and it looks like there is really only some fanart for the movie, and then just plain old costumes or character portraits. I'm hoping to use the characters in the story to illustrate some ideas about life.....or something like that. I'm hoping it will prove thought-provoking.

Yeah. Title says it all. GO WATCH.

So, CTcon went VERY well. The musical was a smash hit, we got lots of donations from the crowd, We got cut off early, and the crowd was upset, but now the crowd has a reason to buy the DVDs. ^_^ Yes, DVDs. They will be released around Sept. 1, 2009, because we have to wait to film the original ending that got cut off when the show was shut down. XD More bonus features!!! Yay!

Um, ShinRa went ok. Wasn't as good as last year. Lots of set backs, but we made it work. Things were silly, people had fun, that's all that is important. ^_^

And, seeing that a friend on here had gotten Copics at Jerry's on sale, I ran out immediately to get my own, since they were on sale. (I already owned some, but needed some more shades of colors...) I bought 8 markers and a (fail) case for them. The markers altogether cost about $39. Which for copics, is a GOOD price. I now have about 24 colors of copics. AND, BONUS!!! Jerry's is now selling REFILLS! That made my day even more, since refills are cheaper in the long run. Now I can use my markers more liberally, and not have major financial troubles because of it.

So, this year's ConnectiCon looks to be possibly the busiest of all time. I'm involved in, and partially helping to run the ConnectiCon Musical. This year it is NOT for kids. Massive amounts of the F-bomb and sexual themes. (THEMES. Not sexual acts. Well. Yeah.)
I'm cast as Queen Beryl. ^_^ YAY. I can't wait. If you are...I'd say 16+ and going to ConnectiCon, GO SEE THE MUSICAL!

Also, made another pr0n slash piccy of Dan/Rorschach. That's been uploaded to my YGallery account. (Same user name)

Hmmm. Need to make some non pr0n images. One will definitely be of Rorschach in a leotard. Oh yeah.

Need to work on the chibis for Connecticon. And anything else I can think of. Damn. I have no idea. I can sit there and do commissions again, but that is slow and few and far between. I might try to make a few new prints, but I sold ONE print last year. Fail. I should have a button making party with Bryan. He should still have the button maker, and I can redesign some pins.

So thats: Chibis, Prints, Buttons, Commissions, and possibly plushies from Jes. That isn't bad for the table. Maybe I will make one spectacular figurine that would sell for a lot. Who knows.

Also, I need to finish the ShinRa Script. Must make a meeting time to write it with my friends.

Adieu.

Ok, what with Watchmen being out in theaters, and having seen it twice, and read through the novel twice, I've become a whore for Nite Owl/Rorschach. Yeah.

I have a thing for the geeky or gruff/unusual guys. So it figures.

I might draw some fanart and post it here, but right now the only fanart I have is inappropriate smutty smut smut. So it went to yGallery. XD

I didn't really need top post this journal, but I was sick of the old post being on my front page.

Toodles!
