Are and are  
Keepin' this short n' sweet, since I'm supertired and probably won't have time to post tomorrow:

There's a new Lunargyros page up today, and it's the last page of chapter two! Chapter three and all its craziness begins next week...I'm looking forward to it!

So yesterday I actually ignored my work-demanding brain enough to actually take a MUCH-needed break, and it was soooo nice! I slept in past 9:00 (Something I haven't done in ages) Got breakfast and DDR'd, then called over [livejournal.com profile] ghettopeach for spending several hours at the beach! I've got that whole friggin' beach there and I almost never go, so dammit, we went to the beach. I didn't even do life drawing, just relaxed with an Orson Scott Card anthology I hadn't touched in a year, and walked around in the waves. About the only downside to this beach trip was that I somehow missed some spots on my legs when sunscreening, and now there are huge splotches of red on the backs of my legs and they huuuurt like hell. ;_;

After the beach, Kel and I went and ate at Malibu Seafood, which is always an awesome thing because the seafood is fresh and well-priced. SOOOOO GOOD. And then we went back to my place and relaxed in the hot tub for awhile and chatted, then had dinner with my family, and watched the MST of Overdrawn at the Memory Bank. Overall, it was very relaxing, and I need to make the effort to do no-work days more often: they're probably more beneficial for my health than I give them credit for!

But now, it's back to work, and considering I've got 3 final projects left to do that're due next week, I probably will have time for little else... @_@

Have a sketch dump:

The Sentinel waits...for what, I do not know. Mayhaps he is waiting for the bubble gator to bring him a soda, since they seem to be from this same unknown-scifi-looking-universe-wherein-I-make-up-character-design-as-I-go-along. Or maybe he is ready to take on attackers with his power comb.
This I spent most of our last figure drawing session working on, and everyone really seemed to like it. :O The teacher in charge of the animated short even wanted to use it as detail reference for the main character, wewt! (Speaking of, I've got to revise more of those storyboards...)

Random sketch done on Friday, of a creepy hick dude and his creepier dog.

'Nother Friday sketch, mostly of Teo and Lyle. Is his name Lyle? I think it's gone from Evan to Kyle to Lyle since coming up with the vague idea for this story. I need to actually decide on a name. Also, a candy-loving kid.

And then some random doodles on the back of schoolwork; mostly messing around with new styles using PR4 characters.

And finally, a bit more progress on the Strahl model. I wanted to also make it my texturing final, but I don't think I'll be able to finish the model in time to do textures, too. D:


And now, I go to bed. *flops*

Drawing: The usual, I guess? Finished a SoKai pic for b-day presents, too!

Writing: More Lunargyros script

It's amazing how we take things for granted when they're so close to us (i.e. the beach).

Anyhow I just thought I'd let you know that if you're still planning on staying with me in the hotel the night of the Halloween Mickey bash at CaliAd, the price per person is $36.33. Not a bad deal considering we have 6 other people in the room. ^^

We should definitely do more beach trips in the future! (And since school's starting now, it'll be less crowded!)

So the Halloween bash at CA is the day right before your birthday party at Club 33, right? If that is a Friday night/Saturday day thing, I think I'll just skip my Saturday morning class that day and stay the night at the hotel. (Since yeah, $37 for the Disneyland Hotel is not bad at all!) So yeah, go ahead and count me in for now. :3

Yes the Halloween bash is the exact day before my birthday thing. Talk about coincedence!

So that brings me to another question, do you want to CARPOOL down on Friday? I have the whole day off but if you can't get out of classes until later and then join us at the bash then no worries. But I'd like to coordinate something if you could technically...

Now granted...I may still have rehearsal on Saturday in which case yall would be on your own at Disneyland until i show up in the evening in time for the Club 33 shabang. Call me and I'll explain in better details.

Yeah, I'll have the whole day off on Friday, so I'd certainly be willing to carpool. :3 (Hopefully there will be no flat tires like last year!) The only issue I'll be having is that Saturday morning class; otherwise I'd just have to be back home at a somewhat-decent hour for class on Sunday.

And I'll try and give you a call sometime. :O

"Beach"? What is this... "beach" you speak of?

It is a magical place wherein the land runs out, and it turns into ocean instead!

Sometimes, there are even...DOLPHINS IN THE OCEAN.

I went to the beach three times in nine years, and the only trip I actually enjoyed was at night. /tear

Candy Kid totally belongs as an illustration in the P.G. Wodehouse story where Wooster kidnaps accidentally adopts a kid on the beach.
