That's what pets are for, after all...

*has horrible memories of certain animals shredding and peeing on furniture and such*

Well, in theory, at least. O_o

This is Lexie (whom you may or may not know) and my cat, Cuni. I even made a photmanipulation (which sucked, since I'm bad at those), of the two of them together, and that was off of what I based the paining. And also, while you can't tell in this picture, Lexie is an elf. She just has a lot of hair, so her ears are all covered. ^ ^

Wowza howza, miss, that’s one amazing piece of art you’ve got there! Best nature I’ve seen you do... at least in a while. O.o I love the lady Lexie’s hair. It looks so fluffy and nice. ^^ Cat’s nice too, but cats tend to be. 12

This one is beautiful. Love that outfit!

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "Thank you! ^^"

Cool Picture! I can’t draw half as well...

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "What, and you’d let a little thing like that stand in your way? o_O? I mean... *shifty eyes*

...what do I mean?"
6 Feb 2008:-) Lotus Rimbauer
No, It means that I will try even more than half-heartedly...XD

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "Well, that’s a good thing, if I take your meaning correctly.

Though I still don’t know what I meant before... o_O"

She looks enough like an elf not to have to see the ears! The clothing gives it away!.

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "There’s still a shadow of doubt, though, even with the clothes... o_O I had to say for sure so it wouldn’t get rejected. ^^"

After trying to both paint and write the outfit of my newest character for a lot longer than what I like, I suddenly understood that I’d actually seen it before. Well, not exactly, but much too close. Why, Kim, why is it so that you’ve already made half of the brilliant ideas I get these days!?

On a second note, I might steal parts of it. *shifty eyes* I still really want to get that painting done. My muse is tormenting me about it. >.< If I do, I’ll try to restrict myself and not go total copycat again, though... >.>

Or, on a third note, could I possibly link this piccy for anyone that wants to know what the outfit’s s’posed to look like? ’Cos I don’t even think I’m managing any simple copying... >.>

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "Because you stole my muse?

Seriously, give it back. I haven’t managed to create anything, anything at all decent, anyway, in the past four months.
Well, started to create anything. I’ve finished a few things, but that doesn’t count.

So give it back, already! *shakes fist*


Oh, don’t worry about it. Seriously. You have my permission to copy this, and if it does end looking like a copy, call it a collaboration or something.
I really don’t mind.

...wait.

......wait a sec... O_O

Oh.


Damn.

My dear, um, I hate to break it to you, but... this picture here, her outfit, I, uh... copied it out of a tv show, myself, actually. *shifty eyes*

I’m pretty sure. O_O So.... um... maybe....

Yes. I know what to do about this. *smiles serenly*

I know exactly what to do.


*PANICS*





(in all seriousness, as far as I know, about that, I am kidding. I hope. Anyway, if you wish to link to it, feel free. Just mention something about the muse theft or something if you do, though. o_O)

(whee, long reply. O_o)"
23 Jun 2008:-) Karen-Birgitte "Ellemerr" Borud
Whee, long reply! ^_^

About the muse, I haven’t stolen anything! But I DO know what’s happened. I’m quite sure, anyhow. It explains things. You see...

Your muse and my Master has run off together on hollidays. They’ve just ditched us and is sitting somewhere neat (maybe with your lil’ cutie dragon by the ocean, what do I know) and licking sun, enjoying not having any annoying artist around demanding their museish power and so on. Does make sense, no? Because, well, I haven’t managed to paint too much lately either.

I’m not managing any copying. I’m linking. Will mention your greatness and the missing muse. Promise.

"Don’t panic!" Says the Guide. Listen to the Guide. Don’t panic. I’m surprised that you can think something like that has been on display on the telly, though. Maybe I should start watching the telly more. O.o

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "I could have sworn I replied to this... *pokes it*

Well, anyway, on the chance that I actually didn’t, I suppose I should... (again?)

Maybe our muses ate each other. Or decided to battle it out in annoyance for having similar ideas?
And have you anything new now? Not uploaded, but done at least? I made a couple of drawings, myself, the other day. One of them I almost like, even. o_O

’Panic,’ says the other guide.

I doubt it’d be worth it for you; some shows have good costume designers will still sucking utterly.... most just suck in general. (Trance from Andromeda, though: lookit her outfit o_O: http://www.space-debris.com/and_bertram_stand.jpg ... I couldn’t find a full-figure image, though. )"

hi there. I stumbled across this picture because I have one that is named exactely the same!! Although I interpreted it quite different. I love the depth of the picture and the peace it brings with itself. I’d wish I were that good with acrylics. Well done!

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "Didn’t I already reply to this?

Huh, anyway...

You know, when it comes right down to it, they are rather similar images, though. Despite the subjects, there is a reason for the identical titling, I reckon."

oh me luv! another acrylic! i luv Lexi’s drees. She reminds me of a character named Lux... i dunno why.

:-) Kim Schoonover (Darth Maulīs scary sister) replies: "Lexie... it’s LEXIE, with an ’e’... *mutters irritably* Lexi is someone comepletlely different. And shorter.

...>.>

Well, thanks, though.

Lux, eh.."
25 Jun 2009:-) Yoni Danziger
That’s an incredible piece… I especially love the serenity I feel while watching it.
b.t.w, How big is it?
