That Sailor Moon picture of her sort of kneeling with her staff, that you see everywhere?  It's by an artist called Nardack.

The really nice bust of Sailor Cosmos that you also see everywhere?  It's actually by Marco Albiero before he made it big.

That brain-meltingly gorgeous realistic picture of serenity with her wand?  It's by pixiv artist Sunmomo but sadly she only has a few other pictures.

Whatever else you're looking to identify, it might be here.

Since the Mirta story is getting towards the last half dozen chapters, my brain's already considering what I might do next.  I'm thinking I might do more Winx Cllub, specifically a fanfic about the Company of Light.  Marion & Oritel in love, Faragonda and Hagen in love, Faragonda and Griffin being BFFs, Daphne getting some screentime, Valtor, Mandragora, the ancestor witches... should be enough to do a few chapters about!

But I need help from you, o watchers!

1) Do you know of any other Company of Light fanfics out there?

2) Would you read mine if I wrote one?

3) Do you have any cool headcanon bits you'd like to see in a fanfic?  Any awesome scenes you've imagining?  Anybody else want to take a stab at the timeline for the destruction of Domino?  I've got ideas but maybe you've got better ones.

4) Miss Faragonda and Miss Griffin do not have good names for being young and fighting battles.  They will need first names or nicknames or SOMETHING because I love Miss F but her name is too darn long!  Any ideas on how to solve this name problem?  Any name suggestions?

If this Winx story idea doesn't get off the ground, I might do some more novelizations-- anything you'd like me to do?  Might do So Weird. That was a good show.  Or a video game novelization, haven't tried one of those yet!  Or maybe I'll try a Sailor Moon webcomic-- my drawing skills aren't really up to it, but if I do it like nads6969 does hers that would probably work.

So me and my mediocre art are chugging along happily, sketchbook on top of the pile, half-finished craft projects on the table... when the house got infested with bedbugs.  And we couldn't get rid of them.  People can get rid of bedbugs, but six people cannot get rid of bedbugs if two of them aren't willing to do the necessary cleaning and stuff.  So everyone had to move out.

Away went the craft projects, buried under the fuss of moving and being treated in case the bugs had invaded, and away went the sketchbook into the freezer because bugs can live in paper, and away went my space to work and my privacy and my drawing books and my lightbox and my colored pencils.

About two months later everything's coming out of quarantine and I'm getting set up in my new digs, still kind of shellshocked from the sudden disintigration of life as I knew it.  

In that time I've drawn exactly one picture.  And written half a notebook full-- the epic adventures of Mirta is going to have a lot more chapters someday when I type it all up.  The Tales of the Crystals Deluxe project is suffering from craft fail (need more dots in Craft Wonderous Item!) but will be completed if it's the last thing I do!  And there's another project that I hope will revive, but its nature is a secret for now.

Anyone! Color and background for me?  *puppy dog eyes*  I'll buy you a subscription! and draw your characters!  and paypal you some electronic folding green!  Ok, probably not all three.  How much does a coloring comission cost?  

Also!  Anyone, point me at a tutorial that'll actually show me how to make layers work in Gimp and I'll draw your character.  I really did spend 5 hours trying to figure out the layers + looking for tutorials with no luck.  The only tutorial I found said, "this dropdown, then click on THAT" only in my shiny new Gimp, this dropdown did not have a THAT listed. T_T  Gimp's so great the rest of the time, but not about layers I guess.

Steal one!
