Description For my fellow McCaffrey nerds: lanky, sweaty boy meets lanky, sticky brown (they have so much in common!), they fall in love! Aww.

I know, I know, the background sucks. I don't do backgrounds. Can you tell? Does this dress make me look fat?

This painting is a direct ripoff of this photo . "Ripoff," "homage," same thing, right?

Honestly, a complicated background might draw attention away from the boy and his brown. I like it as is.

It's not that the background is too complicated or not complicated enough -- it's simply that it's not very GOOD.

Wow...I adore this so, so much! It's full of sweet emotion, and I really want to be the one hugging that brown right now!

Thank you so much! Honestly, I think this piece could use a serious facelift, but I still really like the idea of it.

Oh, nice! There's a lot about this piece that I would do over now, but Impression is one of my favorite bits about the series (I think that holds true for everyone) and I'm glad I rendered it in a way you could connect with! Good luck with your book report. ;>

You mean Dragonflight? I mean, that's a pivotal book in sci-fi/fantasy. You should be able to find it in just about any book store or library. Where do you live?

Innomadic In reply to Cavatica [2010-02-07 01:36:29 +0000 UTC]

I live in Australia, Canberra

But yeah, i can't find it anyway, literally. Though i have a friend whose Aunt may have it....but how long that will take to get i don't know. The school library has most of the others....except the first

urgh. There are only 4 libraries or so with it, 3 copies are already check out, 1 is reserved and the other is lost...well thats what is says on the site. Unless some are overdue...

Cavatica In reply to Innomadic [2010-02-07 02:19:06 +0000 UTC]

The checked out copies have to come back sometime! I don't know how it works in Australia, but here in the States, most -- if not all -- libraries are part of an interlibrary loan program. If your local or state libraries don't have the book you want, they can order it from another state altogether.

If I were you, I'd call up your local library and see if they have something like that. :> (And if not, I've got a friend in Sydney who is -- get this -- a librarian! I'd be happy to ask her about how to get a copy to Canberra.)

Innomadic In reply to Cavatica [2010-02-07 06:57:36 +0000 UTC]

I honestly have no idea how it works, mainly because our school library is just as big as a public one. Usually anything you want to find is in there...doesn't seem to be the case this time around

We'll see. If my friend can get me the book soon, don't worry about it. But if it takes longer, if you would be so kind to look into the possibility of getting your friend to send one down that would be superb....like you're art
