Neither the banner nor the site it leads to is mine, but I want to do my part ....
Yes, they cancelled it. Bastards -- just when it was getting really, really good!! :( I have grown so attached to Topher -- the thought that there's only 9 episodes left to see him makes me incredibly sad. :(
Do you love Topher Too? Especially his interaction with DeWitt? (not necessarily shippy -- I see it as a parent/child sort of relationship myself -- but whatever floats your boat, ne?) I started a fanlising for them! :D Join & snag a button for your site -- show your support for Dollhouse any way you can!
Figures the show would be cancelled the day after I opened it. :/
In related news, I have joined my Buffy (Spike, mostly) & James Marsters sites and added my other Whedonverse content (articles on Angel, pics of the Firefly cast, article on Dr Horrible, etc), and created a Whedonverse site. :)

Wow, it's been a while! Here's what I've been up to, art-wise -- er, rather, craft-wise:
Firstly, we have a custom Ascended Being, of the Stargate franchise.
Next, customs of Roogna and Ensho -- a commission for the pony personas of a bride and groom. 
Lastly, we have my autumn version of the Green Man, whom I call "The PumpkinKing" -- this is a bas relief of sorts ...
Edited to add: Knew I forgot something. Fanart of Eduardo & Kylie, a little over a decade after the end of <I>Extreme Ghostbusters</I>, cosplaying as Sweeney Todd and Mrs Lovett

Yowza! I keep forgetting to post over here! I'm doing pretty good. :) How's about you all?
----------
Some art I've done of late .... (All thumbnails open to gallery pages at deviantART)
hermione and Ron as My Little Ponies ....
Tom Felton as Draco in The Half-Blood Prince ....
Scene from the Stargate Atlantis episode "The Shrine". (There *will* be a sequel image of Rodney,) Acrylic on 16X20 canvas paper. I'm having Joe sign a copy for this for me, and giving him the original. :D
And now I'm starting on a painting of Kirk & Spick for Dragon, since Nimoy & Shatner will be there. If I have time, I'll do a drawing of Ben Browder.
-------------
I think I will go see Ponyo for my birthday. Try to forget that I'm turning 34 by seeing a movie I'm told is aimed at young children. ;)
-----------
The Very Harry Potter Musical is my new happy place -- if you haven't seen it already, *do*. Do it now! (Warning -- there's some swearing and mature themes -- it's not for kiddies!

( So it's been a good couple of weeks for celeb twitters for me! *G* ... (more behind the cut) )

Gah, I new I forgot to post somehwre this week!
Taylor Kitsch as Gambit and Anna Paquin as Rogue. Click on the image to see the full version at deviantART. I;m not totally satisfied with this one, but at least it's better than my old Rogue/Gambit art -- It's hi-larious to compare this new to the old.

Oy, been a while, ey? ... Lessee ...
Working on fanart of Rogue & Gambit at the moment.
Have some art to do for family and friends, only one of which is paying -- I seriously need more paying gigs! I;m best at fantasy figures and, most especially, portraiture -- if you know of anyone who is looking for portraits or illustrations, or wants to have their character drawn, please throw them my way!
http://wolfenmoondaughter.deviantart.com/
I need to raise about $500 for food, lodging, and airfare to get to Dragon*Con this yeat, which I am already committed to (as in bought my con pass last year and am on several panels). I kind of hoped to have more gigs by now, but alas, with the sucky economy, the gigs I get lined up keep backing out on me (thankfully before I actually get to work on them). And of course there's more competition than ever, what with the job market being as it is .... Now, I know a lot of you are in the same boat, I'm just saying if you're *not* in my boat and know someone who wants some art done (please nothing gory, biblically religious, or technical/sci-fi), I'd be much obliged!
Oooh, that gives me an idea!
Okay, peeps, listen up: For anyone who refers someone to me to have art done for them (or even writing), I will give the referrer 5% of the profit (that is, what I get minus cost of supplies, shipping, ect). This deal runs until the end of July 2009.
I prefer doing portraits and drawing people's RPG (non-sci-fi) characters. I will not draw characters owned by others or do portraits of celebrities for pay. See my commissions page for details of what kinds of work I do (and don't do): http://wolfenmoondaughter.deviantart.com/journal/5830022/
There, is that incentive enough? *G* Just tell them to tell me you sent them! :)

Michael Sheen, aka Lucian, is now on Twitter. (Yes, it's verified that it's him.) I tweeted to him a link to the painting I did of Lucian, and he responded! *SQUEEEEEEEE!!!* What a fabulous thing to sign on to!
http://twitter.com/michaelsheen/status/1618926847
BTW< it was reported that he is in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderlad, but Michael had confirmed a while back that, while he is in the film, rumours that he was playing the Cheshire Cat were wrong. My guess was he's playing the White Rabbit -- and he said as much last ight. WOOT! He's playing my fave character! :D *Does Numfar's dance of joy*

I made a concious effort over the years to not be that "annoying geek" who talks over others, to pay attention to what others say -- to the point where it's first nature to me now and has been longer than it hasn't.. I also have always *naturally* made eye contact without being intense about it, spoken "normally" (casually, and relaxed unless I'm being passionate), and been typically "still" when speaking (rather than bouncing, with wandering eyes or looking upward as if I were blind). Also, I've noted that many people I converse with -- not just geeks, but family too, are hyper (note: I consider being "hyper" to be different from being "passionate") and speak over others as if they hadn't even been speaking, traits which annoy the hell out of me, not just when it's done to me but when it's done to anyone. So I assumed I can't be apsie because I don't exhibit the readily-apparent (and, sorry, vastly annoying) traits that it seemed to me that tend to exhibit in social situations. Guess I was wrong! :/ Perhaps my aspie traits are sopmehow balanced out into a fake sense of normalcy (at least as far as social behavior goes) by the neurotypical traits? Have I actually *become* less Aspie by actively trying to be normal during my development? XD

| BSG Finale Tag: The Simple Life |
| Public |
 creative |
| battlestar galactica, caprica six, centurion, cylon, fanfic, gaius baltar, helo, hera agathon, lee adama, sharon agathon, skinjob |
|
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica (Re-Imagined Series)
Rating: PG-13 (for a little violence and some swearing)
Characters: Gaius, Caprica, Lee, Helo, Sharon, Hera, Kara (sort of), and Cottle. Brief cameos by Jeannie, Derrick, Saul, and Ellen. Also, a small assortment of Centurion OCs (only two with prominent roles), a native OC, and a few OC colony children
Pairings: Gaius/Caprica, Helo/Sharon, hints of Lee/Kara
Genres: Character Study, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Friendship, Fluff, Spirituality, and a smidge of Romance
Warnings: Animal attacks and related injuries. Also, HIGHLY INTROSPECTIVE AND PHILOSOPHICAL, especially the first half of the first chapter and most of the third. (Some people hate that stuff, so I give warning! XD)
Spoilers: The entire series, as this is a post-"Daybreak, Part 2" (series finale) tag.
Length: 6 chapters — over 28,500 words (around 54 pages)
Summary: Answers the question "What becomes of Gaius Baltar, Caprica Six, the Agathon family, and Lee Adama, after the colonies settle on Earth?" One night, seven years after landing, they get together and reminisce about an event that occurred a few months after Galactica reached Earth....
Notes: I really enjoyed the finale of the series, and feel it ended just fine, but fic-wise, I wanted to take things a little further as far as the characters' personal stories went. Baltar is my fave character, and redemption is one of my fave story themes, especially when enemies become friends (and extra-especially when that involves hurt/comfort). I enjoy philosophical discourse on the nature of God/good & evil/morality/how things are never really one-sided, too. Basically this fic is about how Baltar comes to see himself when all is said and done, as well as how others come to see him — and how they come to see themselves through interaction with him. Also, I was always annoyed by the lack of meaningful interaction with the Centurions on the show, so in my version of the future, some Centurions chose to stay behind. Also, I'm a happy endings kind of gal, big time, so it's sappy. XD (Although it's not a happy ending for the lion in the story. And I'm a Leo! Shame on me!) Hey, this is fanfic — I'm not getting paid to do it, so of course it's self-indulgent. But I hope people will find it entertaining anyway. ;) And finally, many thanks to my friend Dennis for inadvertently giving me an idea of something to do with Kara.
Soundtrack: (This is what I listened to while writing, to put me in the mood, not songs for specific scenes.)Jamie Cullum's "The Simple Life"; Carolina Liar's "Coming to Terms", "Show Me What I'm Looking For", "Simple Life", "Something to Die For", "Beautiful World", "California Bound", and "Done Stealin'"; and Take That's "Rule the World" |

So you may know of/remember that painting I did of James Callis, aka Gaius Baltar on Battlestar Galactica. http://wolfenmoondaughter.deviantart.com/art/BSG-Dr-Gaius-Baltar-113432508 Well, I did indeed meet him at MegaCon! <3
So I go up to James, explaining that I want him to sign the copy and that in the tube I'm handing him is the original painting, for him to keep. He looks at me in surprise, then asks if I'm "the one" he "was told to expect"!! And of course I'm all "Say wut?" XD He elaborates, saying that he was told someone was bringing a painting for him to sign, and then he asks me my name. I tell him, and he says, all excitedly, yes, he thinks that's it, then looks at the picture and says that he's pretty sure that it's the one he saw online. "You put this online, right?" What a shock that was for me! So fess up; who told him? And more importantly, how the heck did you get ahold of him to tell him?? XD
He asked me how I made it/what it was made out of, ect, and I took the original out of the tube, saying it was acrylic, letting him get a closer look. He covered his mouth in awe (*squee!*), then said he wasn't worthy. (Awwww! :love:) I told him he was the reason I watch the show. When he want to sign the copy, he had trouble, as there wasn't a lot of room. I said he could just put "To Wolfie" at the top and "From James" at the bottom, and he was all "Oh, but I want to write a message!" So there was a strip of white at the bottom (where the printer couldn't reach), and he wrote "U R seriously talented! I love it! Thank you so much. Love James", and then signed his full name (and Gaius Baltar) on the picture itself. And then I got a hug. *SQUEE!* He said he couldn't wait to get it home and framed -- and I told him to take a picture of that. *G*
------------------------
Dad's car died last week, so we finally got him a new one. Boo to having another bill to pay, but at least there's a lot less worry that his car's gonna conk out any second in traffic. ;D We got a 2003 PT Cruiser, Touring Edition, Midnight Blue. It's so cute!! :love: I named it Barnum. Please tell me you can guess why! XD
-----------------------
In other news ... still no news on my grandpa. He's still in the hospital, has good days and bad days, still don't know what's wrong with him. He slipped into a diabetic coma at one pont, but woke up a few hours later and seemed fine/coherent. He's on dialysis -- his kidney's are slowly going downhill. I don;t think he's getting out of it this time. This may sound harsh, but I think we've all been kinda prepeared for this for *years* now. This is the third time he's gone in and we thought it was the end, ya know? But this is also the longest he's been in, and since they still can figure out what's wrong ... Well, he will be 75 in April -- still kinda young maybe for people in good health, but he's not, ya know? Still, who knows, maybe he'll have some miraculous recovery again. Sad that he spent their 55th anniversary in the hospital, and now may spend his 75th birthday there too at this rate. But it's my Grandma I feel the most for -- wish I could be up there for her ....

I'm going to MegaCon at the end of February, and James Callis is going to be there. His character on Battlestar Galatica, Dr Gaius Blatar, is my fave character on the show (really, my primary reason for watching in the first place), so I did this (thumbnail goes to deviantART):
I'll have him sign a copy for me and give him the original painting. :D
