Description Mmmm caaakee~

A while ago, I drew my friend *Sof-Sof a pic for her bday, which featured a cake shaped like planet express: [link] When Futurama was, amazingly, renewed on June 10th, I pondered a way to celebrate it and I remembered that cake.
Life got in the way and I had to put it off, but recent events (namely the fact that FOX is once again effing things up by messing with the voice actors >.< ) have caused me to get my nerd on and proceed with this project - huzzah! 8D


I've never baked a cake before, let alone decorated one, so this was a bit of a challenge. A fun challenge, though~! The hardest part was spreading the icing in a way that I didn't destroy the cake(it was delicate). I didn't keep time, but I'd say this took a few hours. I used this pic as a reference: [link] Had to eliminate some details, but I'm proud of how it came out visually and taste-wise!

Oh and btw, there are 26 candles to represent each new episode that we'll be getting. Woooooo


FUTURAMA 4EVER!!!

SimplyScott In reply to MissusPatches [2010-06-25 05:22:54 +0000 UTC]

Lol, no I didn't know. I just so happened to logon when I noticed your journal entry from the 22nd (I believe that's the date) and was linked to this image.

Anyway, maybe I'll check it out.
I've never been a die hard fan though, so there are many other episodes from previous seasons that I haven't even seen. Haha.

But that's nice~ I know you seem to love that show.

MissusPatches In reply to SimplyScott [2010-06-25 05:25:34 +0000 UTC]

Ahh cool~ yeah that entry was for this little Futurama Countdown project I did! It went pretty well.

Ooh ok~ hope you enjoy it whenever you get to see it :}

so how's your summer been going?

SimplyScott In reply to MissusPatches [2010-06-25 05:28:03 +0000 UTC]

I'll probably check it out at one point, at least the first episode of the new season. It is a new season, correct?

And summer is going fairly well all prepared for next semester of college, aside from the cost of books. Not really sure what books I'll need yet. But I mean, aside from that O: not much else is on my mind pertaining to summer. What about you? How's your summer? Did you take summer courses?

And haha, I hope < < I don't talk too much about things that are unrelated to your image.

MissusPatches In reply to SimplyScott [2010-06-25 05:33:05 +0000 UTC]

yup! Season 6. Though I wouldn't suggest the first ep unless you have seen the 4th movie, because the ep requires you to see the movie to understand it, heh...

Sounds great! Yeah, I've finalized my schedule and everything, too. Managed to condense it into 3 days! I didn't take any summer courses, no. I got my first job actually. Yay~! 8D So my summer's been good.

Heh no prob~ Maybe you can log onto AIM and we cna chat there if you want?

SimplyScott In reply to MissusPatches [2010-06-25 05:39:53 +0000 UTC]

Oh, well okay then (:
Mmmn, so maybe I should start from scratch.

Haha. I did the exact thing. I chose three days <_< but I'll be on campus for several hours now. Haha, oh well.

And wow (: congrats on the job. D: I tried and scored an interview, but was denied. Felt bad O: But I got over it.

Anyway sure I'll get on aim ._. it's going to take a while though.

Well it was my first cake so it wasn't *schmazing*, but it was pretty good c: thanks!
aw man, I know, right? Well, I actually haven't been a fan long enough to have really missed it (joined the fanbase only a couple short years ago), but I think it's BRILLIANT that it's returning! How long've you been a fan?

WorthlessHound In reply to MissusPatches [2010-04-02 00:46:13 +0000 UTC]

Aw well glad it was good though, you're welcome!
Lol oh yes, ah I see, aw sorry you have same here, (cool), Hell yeah me too I love that show, one of my faves. A long while now, I believe I started watching it when it aired here from the Pilot episode, heard of its existence after an episode of 'The Simpsons'. Now when it's on the TV I steal the remote and make my family watch it with me. XD

Eee! Yay! That's certainly a delicious-looking cake. Very nice job, for your first cake! I wouldn't have guessed.

Meh; I have a feeling the voice-actor thing is a scare to get the original voices to come back and lower their demands. But if it isn't...it's majorly depressing.

aww hehe thanks, Gracey x) It was such fun to make! I'm not great with regular cooking, but baking is slowly becoming something of a hobby for me x)

Welll, here I am a week later responding to comments late as usual and all teh cast are signed back onto Futurama! So HURRAY FOX DIDN'T SCREW US OVER 8D

Woww coolio! There's an animation con in florida that I might be able to go to that the futurama cast will be attending, so hopefully I'll soon have a magical moment of meeting them of my own~ *daydreams*

madde84 In reply to MissusPatches [2009-08-03 02:39:55 +0000 UTC]

I'm thinking of going to that one too Currently I'm just planning, so we'll see! I've already met them twice, but I want a picture with Phil LaMarr (because I forgot when I met him at Comic Con) and with Rob Paulsen!

MissusPatches In reply to madde84 [2009-08-04 03:26:35 +0000 UTC]

Wow you go to a lot of cons xD You lucky person, you! If you do get to meet them again, are you going to get more of your pics signed?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

madde84 In reply to MissusPatches [2009-08-04 06:26:37 +0000 UTC]

Only 2 so far This one sounds intersting though. I want a picture with all of them like the site said I could, and a signed picture. I also want Rob's autograph on a Pinky & The Brain picture that's half-signed
The celebrity dinner sounds cool too, even though it might be a bit expensive (although it was cheaper than getting an autographed pic with the whole cast!)
Still haven't decided, but I keep thinking about it back and forth. They're all such sweethearts! I hope you will meet them.

MissusPatches In reply to madde84 [2009-08-12 23:11:32 +0000 UTC]

Yeah this con seems to be a mix of two of my favourite fandoms xD I reallyy wish I lived in florida, man. Anyways, if you do go, I hope you get your sigs~

wow a celebrity dinner? You mean, you could pay to have dunner with the VAs?

madde84 In reply to MissusPatches [2009-08-13 04:22:14 +0000 UTC]

Same here! I'm definately bringing my P&TB t-shirt and my Bender t-shirt!
Yeah, I'm definately getting pictures with them too (it just sucks that you have to pay for that, but some people on Comic Con charge you too...)

Yeah it costs a bit, but I just thought "Eh, treat yourself". It sounded like fun!

This will definately be my chance to meet Rob Paulsen, and getting a picture with Phil LaMarr, I forgot to take one last time I met him

w00t w00t! totallyy

btw, do you take art trades? I've been meanin to ask ^^

athena1999 In reply to MissusPatches [2009-08-03 02:54:10 +0000 UTC]

I bet! So glad all of that hard work was worth it, although I can't imagine how much harder it would have been if you had made a cake replica of one of the characters. XDD

Of course-- I'd be happy to art trade with you! What would you like? <3

MissusPatches In reply to athena1999 [2009-08-03 23:39:01 +0000 UTC]

Ooh that's an idea! *scribbles down* I'd just have to find proper food colouring and I'd be in business...

Awesome! 8) I'd like something Futurama related; the Robot Devil is pretty much my favourite character, so how about him aaand... Bender! Doing something fun 8D I'm a fan of the RD/B ship so if you draw them as a pair, that'd be cool; though if you just want to have them as buddies, that's fine, too~ Have fun with it! ^^

And what I can do for you? c:

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

athena1999 In reply to MissusPatches [2009-08-04 03:45:44 +0000 UTC]

Ahaha, that would be so fun to see! I think all you need to do to achieve the right flesh tone is a little bit of red and yellow food colouring in white frosting. Same with hair colours-- it's all in the different combinations of food colouring. C:

Can and will do! I haven't drawn any Futurama in such a long time and it's going to be so refreshing to do so again! It should be interesting because I don't think I've drawn the Robot Devil before! XD After reading that, I know exactly what to do with them ~ >D *gets started*

Hmmmm... *thinks* I'm so indecisive when it comes to art trades. You may need to come back to me on that

MissusPatches In reply to athena1999 [2009-08-13 15:45:37 +0000 UTC]

Ah yes, I think you're right about the food colourin' mixing :} Thanks for the suggestion! I think I'd do Leela first since her purple hair seeems like it would be fun to do~

Heehee x) Well I'm glad to hear that you're goin' to have fun with this, and that it'll be your first time drawin the Robot Devil! : D He's an awesome char <3 I look forward to seeing what you come up with~

Alrighty, feel free to note me when you decide what you'd like~ (y'know, you could even give me a list of things you'd want and I could pick one from that to surprise ye)
