I'm allergic to work, or maths D: And some art.

[loobee]

So tired *stop* Hate new job I won’t be paid for *stop* Nobody told me I’d be handling cash and loans out right, what is maths? *stop* HATETIREDGRUMPY *stop* I don't want to do this for another 4 weeks, i'm too shy to serve people who are cranky and want their money NOW, but I can't get out of it D:

And regarding Being Human aka best Brit series on the telly since Life on Mars.

*erm spoilers for anyone who watches it*

MITCHELL!!!!OMG ;___________; *sobs* It’s because he’ll be in the Hobbit isn’t it? The scene between George and Mitchell was so powerful and emotional, they broke my heart, the bastards ;_;

To cheer myself up before I have to go to bed, have some art. 



I drew this for knowmydark's fic  Moment of Inertia. Decided such a serious fic would get a serious more realistic style. This is influenced by David Mack’s art as I’ve been reading Kabuki: Metamorphosis again ♥



And proof that colours can make a whole heap of difference to a picture, this is the original sketch.



No refs used, and you can tell lol God Arthur is hard to draw sometimes.

Goes offline to sleep zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Your shading is always so beautifully gentle, and your colorsssss ;3;♥

GOOD NIGHT, LUCY, please take care of yourself and stay strong! You can do ittttt

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

I love messing about with colour, you can probably notice that not much of my art is in sketch form because I just HAVE to colour it XD

NIGHT BUNNIE ♥ I'm going to try to be sure.

[arineat.livejournal.com]

This is so beautiful! ♥ I love it! And The colour makes a huge difference! I wish I knew how to use it properly =/ I need a good tutorial or 10. xD Was that done with coloured pencils or in PS?

I'm sorry you hate your work thingie, but maybe this will be a good thing in the long run. Nothing like bringing you out of your shell a bit than to have to deal with cranky customers. Seriously. You learn how to properly assert yourself by doing things like that. At least I did. :D Look for the silver lining, sweetie! \o/

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

There are a few great tutorials on DA, i'll have to see if I can find them for you as they helped me. It's all coloured in PS.

I can be brought out of my shell if it's working with things I know about, like when I was with HMV and Vue cinemas. I could chat away about anything that went on in those places, even when people were grumpy. My problem is this is to do with finance, of which I know nothing, so it's making me retreat further rather than be assertive as I don't know what i'm doing X_X

[arineat.livejournal.com]

Ah, that would be scary and uncomfortable for anyone. *pets you*

Oh, yes please! xD I'm still getting used to my tablet. :P

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

I'll give it a week and see how it goes. The lady at the job center did say to tell her if it gets too much.

I'll try and find the good ones I have tomorrow (didn't save the links doh) but this lass has some great ones http://acidlullaby.deviantart.com/gallery/336786 to tide you over. And well DA always has some good ones if you search ;)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

How can you say your work is crappy, woman? This is EXQUISITE ♥

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

I don't know ;_; I think I must be so blind toward my art sometimes.

[katamanda.livejournal.com]

OH GOD I WAS FREAKING.

How could they off Mitchel? How will the series go on with one of the trio gone?! D: Though I was pleased I guessed right that Herrick would save him from the police. But oh man the whole thing! And the wolf-shaped-bullet thing being completely made up and he'd gone through all that angst for nothing dfygufyud

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

I WAS TEARING UP SO MUCH. AND THINKING 'GEORGE NO YOU CAN'T'!!!!!! ;_;

I think they took him as far as they could with all his angst and self loathing, but I thought he'd get above that and be loved again *sobs* It won't be the same without our scruffy fingerless glove wearing vamp ;_; Would they bring in Adam from Becoming Human? Oh man, I do wonder if it was all made up, where on earth Lia got the power to free Annie from the men with sticks and rope? Or resurrect that police guy? 0_0

[katamanda.livejournal.com]

GOD GEORGE! I never loved him harder than we he turned round and staked Mitchell to save him from the Old Ones, that was lovely as it was heartbreaking.

I think you do have a point there, if it had carried onto the next series it could have become really grating on the nerves. It's hard to keep angst going for a long time before you want to slap the sense into the character. He looked happy when he went so... yeah. I can take it as a satisfying ending for Mitchell.

Mmmm... I dunno, I haven't watched past the first ep for Becoming Human but from what I saw I'm not sure I'd enjoy him as a recurring cast member for the main show. Maybe we will get a new awesome vampire (I am happy that it looks like Tom will be sticking around though, he's adorables).

Yeaaaah, that was weird actually. How she could do all those things. But mind you we still don't know much concrete about the afterlife in this setting.

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

It was grand to see they still loved one another even if it was such a damn sad ending. When Mitchel was pushing him away, and trying to get him to hate him, it was so human of him and it just broke my heart.

It was a hard road to come back off what with having killed so many people. I think it was brave of the writers to go with what felt right rather than try to keep it up. I think he felt free from not having to kill any more D: (I'm so watching the Hobbit for Aiden XD)

He did come across as a bit annoying. What with the new evil league of vamps, someone new is bound to show up (or hell knowing the writers, someone old) I love Tom so much, he's a puppy wolf XD

True. plus they may go into it more in the 4th series. The quote about Annie being very powerful is awesome foreshadowing XD So sad yet excited.

[http://users.livejournal.com/acquiescence_/]

Oh this is just gorgeous, and I adore what the colors add to this.

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thank you ♥ I'm so glad I decided to play around more as it's made the sketch pop. I was very much 'holy crap where did that come from?' when I added the colour XD

[delires.livejournal.com]

THIS IS AWESOME. ♥

(that fic is so beautiful and ffffff....your art brings back all the HEARTACHE ;__;)

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much hun ♥

(It's my go to fic when I want my heartbroken. I'm quite evil to myself, but it was so powerful)

[ilovetakahana.livejournal.com]

That is an amazing image and the colors do SO MUCH for the atmosphere and emotions.

You're so good, I sometimes think I might run out of compliments. :) ♥

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thanks hun ♥ Colour is one of the reasons I tend to not post pencil sketches so much, for some reason I always have to finish things as colour just adds so much life to them.

And thanks again, and hey just having friends and that they like my art is all I can wish for.

[foxxcub.livejournal.com]

So, so gorgeous, omg. *_________*

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thank youuuuuu ♥ It's definitely a new thing for me, i'll have to have a go at doing Eames in this style.

[distracterisey.livejournal.com]

Hope things at work look up soon~ As for the art, it's lovely as always. The colours really do add to the pic!

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Me to hun, it's not so good right now X_X Thanks, the drawing probably shows why I always go for such bright colours on my pencils. They'd look less vibrant otherwise (it's why I loved your R!BB work, you rock the grey shading ♥)

[distracterisey.livejournal.com]

Ohgeez, I really should man up and start colouring again, but I'm just too lazy and impatient for it. Props to you for all your lovely coloured drawings! =D

[weatherfront.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, Lucy, my god your coloring is so gorgeous ;____; and you really make the more realistic style work! GET IT GET IT GIRL ♥

You will survive the four weeks, hang in there, okay. I mean what if you only had four more weeks to live. That is basically my life approach to any seemingly interminable situation, hopefully it... helps... XD

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thanks Iffy ♥ I still love my more cartoony style, but I may come and play in the realism pool a few times.

I'm giving it another day and if I don't get it i'm telling the guy who looks after me at the Job place I can't do it. It's rather like working at a bank and I was told it would be office work, so it's not what I signed up for (I have no idea about finance or loans and I'm painfully confused)

[laria-gwyn.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

Your colors are so gorgeous! <3

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

♥

Thanks, I used to be so scared of colours but thank goodness for PS and the 'undo' button XD

[keelain.livejournal.com]

ooooh that's one of my favorite fics...

this is very impressive :) say I can't tell what did you use to shade his tie? Is that still pencil?

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Mine too, it's devastating but soo good.

Thank you hun. It's a grey copic marker, used it to go over some of the pencil to make it stand out and then decided it would make a great shader for the tie.

Ps did you get my email?

[keelain.livejournal.com]

Ah I see. COPICS :D do you have any other colors?

Sorry, I didn't, for some reason it didn't redirect to my main account, but I just sent you a reply!

[likeroads.livejournal.com]

This is gorgeous, bb!

And oh, that fic. My heart literally aches every time I see something related to it. I think I might cry now... ;_; Cross that, tears in my eyes already.

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thank you sweetheart ♥

*passes you a hankie* it's one of my absolute faves in ALL fandoms. Just have such a thing for the sad and angsty. I love being moved, even if that ends in tears D:

[likeroads.livejournal.com]

*wipes tears away* Yes and yes. I'm probably the biggest angst!whore fandom has ever seen. I just love to get my heart broken. :D

[jibrailis.livejournal.com]

It is so lovely. *____* Just looking at it is reminding me of the utter heartbreak that was Moment of Inertia.

jobs suck, Lucy, they are a pain that we must put up with. But I hope those four weeks pass like butter on toast! *hugs*

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

Thank you Nancy ♥ I had to read crack fic for a week after, but it was lovely XD

me too, wish so much I was being paid as that would sooth the pains it's giving me. They gave me the wrong kind of job, so i'm struggling. Was told I can change it if I hate it, but as i'm a bit of a softie i'm trying to do what i can as I don't want to let people down ;_;

[knowmydark.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness, darling, I haven't been on LJ for so long because of upcoming mid-semesters and the moment I get back on, what do I see? This beautiful, gorgeous, heart-wrenching piece of work, Lucy, this is utterly - sdfgynsdfugis I don't even know how to express how much I love your shading, that purple in the background, the blood splatter, the single tear - it is so utterly perfect, I just want to carry it home and keep it under my pillow and stare at it every night before I go to sleep. Oh, Lucy, Lucy. Thank-you so much. Thank-you. This is - this is so beautiful. ♥

[loobeeinthesky.livejournal.com]

You're describing just what I thought of your beautiful story when I first read it XD I'm so happy you love it Mel, and do be careful not to squish it under that pillow. I have to thank you as well because i've had such a bad time of late, your story really inspired me to pick up my pencil again and keep trying, thanks sweetheart ♥

Hope your upcoming mid-semester is treating you well?

[knowmydark.livejournal.com]

I will probably make photocopies of it and keep one under my pillow, one in my wallet, one on my wall, and one in my diary. IT IS SO GORGEOUS. Thank-you, thank-you! I'm really very sorry about what's been happening to you lately, and I'm so ecstatic that I might have been a tiny factor to help you keep inspired, to keep you going. The day you leave our fandom will be a sad day for everyone, so every day counts. ♥

Thanks, hun! It's over now, I'm on holidays! Will have to work on my reversebang, haha, I hear check-in for that is soon? Eeek!
