I am gearing up for Otakon! We are not doing a ton of conventions this summer, mostly because Muggle work must be focused on right now. No sadness though, we will be at Otakon in the Alley! On top of that, the muggle work is paying off and I’ve been able to get the tech I need to produce all the things I want to make. That’s what it is all about here, making stuff I love… and I hope you might enjoy too! Over at the facebook page, I have been sharing all the geek artwork I love to look at. We all benefit from having more fantastic stuff to oooo and ahhhh over, right? Here is a sketch that I did on my phone. Part of the fabulous tech upgrade is that I can draw digitally on the go. I feel so spoiled!

A Friday Knights Update! Looking forward to gettin’ a new computer in the not too far future to make doing this easier. Limping by on my will and a prayer here. At least I have a job so I can afford to get it soon! Hurray for finally making what a college educated adult expects to make when they are a kid getting educated.

“Well, isn’t that cute,” Corny jibbed at his friend.  Ryan looked sly walking across the room, wine in hand, orchid in his mouth. “You know that was completely unnecessary. We have 3 perfectly  fine drinks on the tray.  They brought them up with dinner.” Corny gestured to the tray as he started unloading it and placing the food on the table.

Ryan nodded and mimicked Corny as he sat at the table and placed the drinks in front of his friends. He removed his turban and held it to his chest.  He slowly removed the delicate white orchid from his lips and held it out to Cassie. Bowing his head slightly and looking up he said “you will have to excuse me, Corny. I never find it unnecessary to bring a lovely lady a flower. I hope you can forgive any of my ungentlemanly advances and we can start again?”…

Hi there! Amy Speaking!

All of us here at 20sd like to roleplay but recently I have ventured into the world of live-action roleplaying or LARPing.  I made this montage video for my character for a LARP in PA called Doomsday (www.doomsdaylive.com).  Her name is Magical Girl Princess Ribbon and she is an android who believes she is actually a Magical Girl.  Currently, there are in-game elections going on and my character decided she would run for Princess, a position she made up on the spot.  Even so, there are others who are now campaigning against her so she decided to show everyone how she is training for her position as Princess.

This couldn’t have been done on my own though!  I want to thank Kitt & Jenny for filming it and Gans for clipping it together on the fly.  ….well, it is fool’s month here at 20sd, isn’t it? XDDDD

And so I present to you, Magical Girl Princess Ribbon Campaign’s Princess Montage Special Campaign Video!

Star flinched back from Robin’s grasp on her shoulder.  Great not he was going to draw her into this Buttercup nonsense when she didn’t even know what the hell it was!  Star let out a growl and pushed the already injured Robin down as she stood up and away from Mab.

Monster Mashing- Renamed and Rehomed!

For a while now I’ve felt like I have too many websites going on, so I have condensed! As part of the paring down I have moved Monster Mashing to Strangely Cute which will be a home for all my work that is not Friday Knights.  I didn’t really like the name Monster Mashing, so I am calling the entire world Starling, which I like much better.  So please check it out! I am now updating again, once a week!  Yay!

Other content on that site will be any blog entries, art, love notes, reviews (such as my ongoing Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Comic reveiws!) and any other thing that comes down the pike will probably be on that site, unless it does something to warrent getting it’s own.

Thanks for reading!

Hi there!

Due to convention preparation I’m still working on coloring this illustration here.

One of my next works to be colored however is this illustration here:

WIP

Originally, I was designing an OC fae character but now that I look at her, she reminds me a lot of Hatsune Miku.  So, I’m gonna have to color a version of this with her iconic turquoise hair and a leek in her hand there. XD
