The Bean

@Ethryndal oooh… that’s pretty close! I love it! Thank you!

@I-J-Anderson thanks. 😀 I’m afraid it fails as a likeness, but it was too funny not to post.

@Aratrea ah, my mistake. I see now. Thanks. 🙂

Tavalii. Female, twenty two, but small and birdlike with bony hands. She’s a fantasy priestess of a false religion (and she knows its false) who was dedicated to the Temple of the Stars at birth and doesn’t care about herself enough to bother about doing something about any of it. Usually bored. Hates the face-paint and ceremonial wreaths and…[Read more]

@I-J-Anderson I’ve been laughing myself silly over this sketch for about five minutes… Don’t ask me why, but she came to me in caricature and I did my best. *wipes eyes* Here. Have a good laugh.

@Daeus @Emma-Flournoy hm… *scratches head**twists face sideways**grimaces* Hm. I seem to have something like that on my schedule, yes.

@I-J-Anderson ooohhh… I want to try her.

@Aratrea

Well… listening to the video I was enthusiastically raking my entire cast together against the protagonist and now you tell me I can only pick three!? *sigh* Life is hard.

Denholm: Harold’s friend and nephew. The one guy who stuck with him through everything and wholeheartedly believes that the world is worth saving and can be saved,…[Read more]

@PrincessFoo welcome! And unfortunately I have no experience with co-writing. At all. :/ One possible option for your specific dilemma, however, may simply be to alternate chapters/scenes between what’s happening with your character and what’s happening with hers even before they meet, assuming the plot/structure works that way.

@I-J-Anderson *bows* Smeagol and I share a motto, and that is ‘always be helpful’. XD

Okay! Have fun. 😀

@Graciegirl sure. I’m not the most knowledgeable with that sort of stuff myself, but glad I was able to help. 😉

@Aysia-Serene These characters haven’t been done yet.

Erika Paige, female, nineteen. Tall, a little bony, dark-ish skin and a light dusting of freckles, with grey-green eyes and a veritable mop of brilliant red hair. She’s a mechanic… her story is steampunk, so she makes steam-powered robots and drones and such… and she also dresses like a Victo…[Read more]

@Dragon-Snapper ha! I love the cocky smirk— that’s definitely him. Thanks. 😀

Thanks for the encouragement, @I-J-Anderson. 😉

@GracieGirl I love him! His laugh— I can hear his laugh. 😀

Keep trying @Dragon-Snapper. You’ll get it.

@Dragon-Snapper the funky looking text in the address bar at the top of any given web page. If you’ve got the picture on your computer, upload it to google (at least that’s how I do it, using my email), right-click, hit ‘view image’ and let it go to a completely black page with the picture in the middle. Then click the url until it turns blue,…[Read more]

@GracieGirl it won’t let me follow the link… says I don’t have access on this server. That probably means you’re the only one who can follow it. :/ When the url is that long, you can be sure you’ve got a problem. Were you able to get the picture on a black page all by itself before copying the url?

Sure. @GracieGirl upload your pic to where you can get it on ‘view image’, copy the url, then come back here, hit the img option at the top of the text box, copy the url, hit okay, name the pic, and hit okay again. Make sure your picture is compatible with the web… 😛

@PerfectFifths ummm… *laughs* Probably the only tip I could give you is pay attention to shadows and textures. Also realize that the human form and face is made up of many different shapes (not all faces are merely oval, nor all arms merely straight) and to learn to see those shapes and the way they combine to make the overall shapes of…[Read more]
