Description Breaktime doodle! Just messing around. Just saw Coraline and can't get the button eyes thing out of my head.

For the record, I hate Valentines day.. I already have a day to celebrate love and it's called my anniversary..

I love the way your style and the texture come together!
By the way, what texture is that? :0

This is old-time romantic. Plus, I'm a sucker for redheads.

Funny how button eyes can change your character designs. She could belong in the other mother's world. Did you like the "birth of venus" scene?

How WAS Coraline? the button thing sort of scared me off of it...

Very, very darling. Want those shorts desperately now.

And now I also want to see Coraline even more. Worth seeing, in your opinion?

Definitely TO THE MAX. It was the best. Really beautiful and eerie. The previews didn't do it justice.

I actually like all the unnecessary pink and cute sappy fluff surrounding Valentines Day... The only beef I have with it is that it seems designed specifically to make single folks feel like losers. :neglected:

'cause I'm a pink addict and I want that outfit.

Here here!

Its also called the whole rest of the year, why do we need just ONE day?

Lovely picture, much pink = much love

thundercake In reply to Cidien [2009-02-08 18:06:44 +0000 UTC]

Because we can't afford to go out to a fancy restaurant and give each other presents every day of the year?

Yes, it's a 3D movie that's made to look like stop-motion animation. It was absolutely amazing.

Ohhh, that is so cute! Heh, on one hand, I hate Vday, but then again a lot of cute art gets posted around it, so...

I love the button-eyes look. Adds a really cheerful innocent look to it. And I will never stop being envious of how gorgeously you ink.

Delightful drawing of a very cute young lady. I really like your artwork.

Don't be quite so cynical about Valentine's Day, under all that commercialist nonsense is an innocent little holiday.

thundercake In reply to nomyai [2009-02-08 18:18:42 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I'm not cynical exactly. I just get tired of businesses trying to unload their pink crap on me or make me feel like I'm "not a romantic" for not wanting to buy my fiance a box of gross candy.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

nomyai In reply to thundercake [2009-02-08 19:43:58 +0000 UTC]

Ah, everything begins to become clear.

I make my own Valentine cards (usually purple or orange) and give them to my wife throughout the year. My wife also collects porcelian figurines, so I get her a box of figurines instead of candy (ooooh, gross). Try that with your fiancee...a box of what does he like [besides you, of course]? Wait, wait, I got it...a box of YOU. Give him a box with a card in it explaining when where and how the next romantic down time will be spent.

Let me know if it works out, but only if you want to.

And, one last thing, if I may. I'm intrigued by your site name. What is 'thundercake'?

Thunder Cake is a book by Patricia Polacco. It was one of my favorites as a kid.

Exactly...why make a day where all the single people feel left out?

krissthebliss In reply to thundercake [2009-02-09 04:32:56 +0000 UTC]

thats the purpose it.. to make us feel desperate and scamble to find a valentine and make us feel like crap and besides.. Hallmark made that day for cosumerism... those fuckers >

Rhino0 [2009-02-08 04:45:27 +0000 UTC]

Awww... I'm so glad you feel that way about valentines and your anniversary.
Commercialism might be the death of us - forget consumerism. Giving into people trying to sell us stuff - not the people who sell us the stuff.
Coraline was good, then?

Did you see it in 3D? It adds so much more to the whole... effect. Ah, I loved it!

Anyway, this is adorable. I want her shoes. D:
