I played with these in photoshop a bit

So I decided first I needed a clear, clean logo that I could print out and paste onto a bottle.  It's not exactly the same, but I got it as close as I could while also trying to make it a little more realistic.  For example, I couldn't make out what was on the wax seal, so I put that hour glass, mostly because I was thinking how much of a waste of time this whole project was, but also because people often drink to slow time down or speed time up.  Anyway, now I'm trying to find an empty bottle I can use to do the rest.

Had an awful toothache most of the day, just about froze my face off with an ice pack trying to keep the pain at bay until noon tomorrow.  I'm probably gonna lose my job over it, but when you're only getting 1-2 days a week, maybe that's not a bad thing.

Not really anything else going on in my world. I try to write and nothing comes out.  Did get a new keyboard and it seems like it's easier to type on, for whatever reason.  It has a calculator button on it! YAY!  Joey's been a sparkling turd lately...  spankings aren't working anymore so I gotta figure out some other way to make him listen.  I'm thinking it's either A- he's bored, or B he wants my attention, or C both.  He's had Shin Chan on repeat on dvd for 2 days- I think it's rubbing off on him. I looked over to him mooning me and yelling "ASS DANCE! ASS DANCE!!"  Some days I feel like I am a terrible mother.

Sigh.  Enjoy the art thing.  And I'm gonna leave some Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin fics here, both Erwin/Levi, both seriously good.

Ailes de la Liberté

This one is a WWII AU, with most of the officers (pre Eren and the recruits) part of a resistance operating out of occupied France, in a nightclub like Moulin Rouge.  Levi is the star of the show, Erwin is the leader of the resistance, sparks fly and plot twists are made.

all your demons and desires and dark sides

This one is a modern AU, where the Titans seem to be a terrorist organization specializing in torture.  Erwin is a recently honorably discharged air force commander, who frequents a BDSM club, where Levi is just getting started. This is such a good fic, not just for the properly written S&M scenes, but the psychological aspects each one of them are dealing with respectively.  Their relationship has up and downs because of the things they're dealing with.  I wish she'd update already XD

WHO WILL WIN??!?!?? XD

View the full size HERE at my deviantart page!  I hope you like it, I only worked on it a little everyday tweaking it once I got it mostly finished!  That Arabic over the door reads:
بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم
Or in phonetic- Bismillah Arrahman Arraheem, which translates to: In the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful.  I thought that would be something like an Ishvalan thing like some Christians have that say "Bless this house and all who enter."  Anyway, I hope you like it, I just couldn't wait to post it any longer!  Have a great birthday weekend!

****NEW CANON****
These are sketches from Arakawa-sensei, of Ed at different stages in his life.  He lives to be 88 (I thought he'd be much older considering he's part philosopher's stone, but just as I wrote that I remembered how he used part of his life force to save his own life in the mine shaft at Baschool)


ETA: Apparently I'm the last person to know these sketches are old XD disregard my old lady fangirling lol
Just wanted to be sure everyone saw this! (and holy fuck 40 yr old Ed is SMOKIN' HAWT!!!!!!)

It's been a busy day in my photoshop program XD

As promised, for helping to beta my RK fic!


full size is best as always!

It's like sudoku with alchemic arrays! Try it, it's fun! Found it over at the Adult Swim message boards and it was a great way to waste some time!

First of all, some acknowledgements: I'd like to thank the gods that I got paired with missyquill as one of my authors.  She and I have a karma-like connection- something I like to call Radar Love.  We shared ideas so perfectly with one another it was like I was working with a clone of myself.  I also want to thank enemytosleep for managing to organize and run the event.  I've had a great first time here and cannot wait to do it again :)

I'm aware that people know I normally manipulate screenshots to make my artwork.  For this story, (with the exception of the dust jacket image) I drew 99% of the art from scratch.  This is the first time I've really drawn so much with so little photoshop help.  I'm glad that I was able to do it this way.

Without further ado, I give you my illustrations for the FMA Big Bang fic, "Frozen".
