steady rollin'

Yay to the evil twin for helping me finish this thing.

Silk Over Splinters

( Read me. )

Rather than simply repost all my really old X-men stuff, I've decided to redraw them as practise/warm-up.

So here's a pic of Kurt I originally did way back in 2003. Now with moar skillz, and my other favourite bodily fluid. Side by side of the before/after included under the cut. ^_^

X-men. Nightcrawler. NSFW. Sacrilicious imagery.

X-Factor #45: I feel late to the party, but... um... guh.

Oh, boys, finally.

So J went to the zoo today with his family. I stayed home and tidied things up and did some design work and then drew Victor/Logan for because she was feeding me tidbits of her latest fic. My image is way, way, smooshy in comparison, but I don't even care that it's fluffysmoosh, that's how hard I am crushing on them today.

Evil twin loves me and not only writes hot Peter/Olivia for the crossdressing slot on her Kink Bingo card, but also sends me Victor/Logan animal play tidbits all day. I ♥ it when our fandoms are aligned. I also ♥ Kink Bingo. Now um, if I could only get cracking on more slots on my card. Instead, I draw! Besides commission things, today I've been working on a Greed/Kimberly piece and more Fringe fanart, but I took time away from those to fool around with painting techniques and a slightly different base palette than I'm accustomed to using. Fun times.



( X-men - Study: Gambit )

In further procrastination this morning and upon seeing someone voice a "where is all the hot Logan/Remy?" I dug up the links to my favourite fics.

I rec'd these on my LJ years ago, and am relieved to find working links for them! The accented dialogue of Remy's speech frequently is reproduced as it was in the comics, so if that's a peeve of yours go in forewarned. Somewhere out there is a Logan/Remy danger room fic that was also panty-melting. I'll see if I can track down.

Logan's Experiment by O. This is and always probably will be my favourite Logan/Remy story. It has a beautiful lyrical quality to the prose. The first time I read it, it took me a few paragraphs to get into the flow, but after that initial hurdle it's always been a fluid read. This one also brings in those few hints of Remy's telepathy.

"Left y'here for the clean-up crew, eh?" Logan murmured, appreciating the drape of outstretched body, long and spare, the lift of deep ribs hollowing out a hard narrow belly like a young hunting hound.

Games by Cheyenne Dancer. There are certain tropes that I don't see very often anymore, but maybe I'm just reading in the wrong places. This, however, is one of my favourite sex club fics ever.

He could worry about why Logan had shown up here, tonight, later... after he had given him the slip. Remy felt the heat traveling up his face, started to say something and then changed his mind. He could play Logan's game. It might even be fun. He was sure the X-man was all bluff. And bluffing was Gambit's game.

The Rough, The Smooth, & The Inbetween by Glamour Ghoul. This one's a Logan/Jean/Remy with an established Logan/Jean adding Remy to pot and it is smoking hot. If you like doubleteaming hetporn with a light sprinkling of slash, this fic is for you.

Her mind raced backward several days, to a quiet afternoon when she and Betsy had made tea and pondered what Logan and Remy could possibly be discussing with such seriousness. Now, without using even the tiniest bit of her power, she was absolutely sure what it was.

Her.

As the subject line states, my final is due monday. I also work Sat/Sun. Which means essentially today and tomorrow should be my crunch days.

Am I diligently making new assets in Maya or polishing up my main character in Zbrush?

No.

I'm staring at this:

...fervently so. I paused only long enough to make an icon from it so that I could continue to stare in 100x100 form while I typed up this entry.

I should probably just write the porn to get it out of my head in the hopes that then I'll be able to focus on, well, anything else. But two pieces of fanart in a row doesn't give me any hope that will work. I can't even write for IJ's porn_battle because I'm still so sldfkjgl and fear that a drabble will turn into something all-consuming.

On the upside, something that makes me feel productive: Snarry Games.

I donated the art for the banners this time around. The graphics team did such a lovely job with the pics, and I'm so pleased to see people praising them in the comments! I'll post the full-sized images after I've managed to push a few vertices around or at the very least open my project.

There is also a friending meme going on over at marvel_fanworks@DW which I have tossed my name into but still need to sift through.

Went to my weekly workshop and polished up what was going to be a daily (weekly?) sketch. Sabretooth was the focus, but then I started adding Wolverine. I had rudimentary lineart for him but liked the look when I did a silhouette test, so left it that way. :D

I still don't really picture Hugh when I think of Wolverine, but Schreibertooth fully rules my mental image. I am in love with his fanglicious smile and I find that although I remain disappointed over Gambit's eyes, the 80s rocker hair I don’t really miss all that much. I don't think I could possibly be more fangirly right now. DDDD:



( [NC-17] - X-men - Wolverine/Sabretooth - Taste for Blood )

Item the first: Internet! Ridiculously fast internet, even.

Item the second: Wolverine! I figured I didn't care how many helicopters got taken down by a not quite fastball special as long as there was some Gambit action, but oh, omigod. My fangirl is off the charts. I can't believe I'm working a split shift, as all I want to do is DRAW. I've always loved Sabretooth and now with Liev's version in my head, I have extra stars in my eyes. The hotness is killing me. So much so that it's taking a lot of effort to type in sentences.

As I mentioned in my frantic twitter while exiting the theatre, it's like they made this movie for me. ;-; I'm so happy I didn't pay any attention to the screener gossip. sdflkjg.

Impressionable much?

Tomorrow if I finish my work obligations, I shall post the shmoopy Tony/Steve that I put off in order to scrawl this thing out. Ahahr. ^^;



( [NC-17] - X-men - Wolverine/Sabretooth - Proximity (non-con, violence) )

I did a lot of drawing today. Tomorrow, I shall finish things. \o/

Right now I'm busy wriggling with glee. J sent this to me saying: "This valentines day, give your loved one a great big hug!"

Yes, I say. Yes, indeed.

( Icon 50% relative to image, 100% relative to subject line. )

sdlfkjslf.

This is my "yay, Cintiq" gift art to myself. Shockingly, they've got their shirts on and everything. I... I am going to die when Origins comes out.
