So tonight I continued working on my Loki sculpt. I've started roughing in the other side of the face, and worked on the other as well. I really need to get a mouth on there soon because the placeholder mouth is sort of driving me nuts. I got more reference pictures and I think I'm going to resculpt the eyes because I'm not happy with them. I did some surgery on the head core since the head didn't end up in exactly the proportion I originally intended and so the core wasn't exactly in the right spot. I spent a fair bit of my sculpting time tonight actually getting that fixed up, which made me nervous because I was afraid I was going to smush his whole face on accident.

Continuing my Loki sculpt
Soon you will have an entire face!

Watched the Voice tonight. I liked that the first song was Happy by Pharrell. People on twitter had said it should be Hiddles' theme song, and I like that thought.
T Hiddy
You just keep on being adorbs Hiddles~
Plus it's a fun song. I'm not sure there was anything else in particular that jumped out at me.

I really liked the Blacklist tonight. :3

So now she knows that her hubby isn't what he seems, which should be interesting moving forward.
But the last bit with the music box and Reddington hit me in the feels. It seriously made the entire episode for me.
I really love James Spader's character. Scottie likes him too. It will be interesting to know more about why he is the way he is.


Watched Believe tonight too. Scottie said that he was impressed by the way they are pacing out the show. They're not info-dumping so much that it feels like an info-dump, but they've put a lot of stuff out there and it's only on it's third episode. Also, they've maintained an air of mystery. Also, I like the two main characters quite a bit.

Time for bed~

So I have been wanting to do a human Loki sculpt, and this weekend I was very inspired to start! I was planning on working on Pony!Loki armour as well, but I didn't get quite that far. I am certainly going to continue on that though! I have a lot of pony ideas still floating around too, lol. So many things that I want to do!

The clay that I'm using for this sculpt is a mix of the last of my Super Sculpey (which I have to say makes me nervous, I'm running rather low on clay. :S) and Premo. I think that this is a nicer thing to work with than straight Super Sculpey, since I prefer working with Premo. So I worked up a batch of clay, then got a core ready, and plans, and started sculpting! It felt good to be starting in on a new sculpt, and I'm happy with how it's coming along. :3

Here's the progress from today:

While I was working Scottie and I watched the newest episode of Believe. I liked the episode up until the end. More specific thoughts under spoiler cut:

I was sort of annoyed by the end of the episode. I like that the girl is powerful, though I can see why someone might not want her to be too powerful. It's less scary if nobody can ever harm them. But. She's always done something when bad things are happening. And she said that the big things happen when she's angry, and from the sounds of it those things aren't exactly concious decisions. So when something bad happened and suddenly she was too scared to do anything... I was like, you're being kidnapped and the guy you're traveling with has been attacked and the gas station is going to be burned down... now is the time you're going to not get angry? It's annoyingly inconsistent. I'd much rather she had her energy get drained so she wasn't able to manifest powers instead of "randomly she'll change from a badass magical girl to a helpless flailing child for no discernable reason". Or something. I understand she's a child, but they've made that a less plausible problem when they said that she does things unconciously to protect herself and others. :/ It's a pet peeve of mine when characters do that. I really hope that doesn't become a common thing for the series because it will start to annoy me fast, and I like the show except for that and would like to continue to like it.

loki oh for heavens sake

How is it the end of the weekend already? Boooooo.

More things that I want to talk about, but I need to get to sleep (ack how is it so late??). Time for bed!

So today I did a photoshoot with my lovely new Viperine! I took more pictures, but I don't have time to get the second half up so that will have to wait until tomorrow. But for now here's her welcome to the family!

Box pictures )

After I unboxed her, one of her arms was a little stuck. It turned out there was a little bit of flashing left in her shoulder joint, I just had to pull it off and it was fine. But in order to see what was wrong, I had to pull off her dress. When I did I saw all of the detail in the body sculpt, I was really impressed by all of the detail in the snake scaling! She even has ventral scales that extend to the inside of her arms and legs! I'm always impressed by dolls with special body sculpts, especially as a sculptor. xD
One detail picture )
I also love the colour they used for her. She's actually a bit irridscent, and it is just so pretty. :3

Now for less informational photos!
Duece is Viperine's cousin, so he's welcoming her home! :3
Welcome cousin!
Welcome cousin!

A few more pictures )

Teaser for tomorrow's pictures:
Hello there

Watched the Voice tonight, I thought it was pretty fun. I still don't have anyone that I feel strongly about, which is a bummer. The reason I had a lot of fun last season was because I had a couple of bbs in the race. Which isn't to say there weren't some good voices in there, just... nobody that caught my attention in any really special way. We'll have to see if that changes, but we're almost out of the blinds!

Also watched the first episode of Believe, and I liked it more than I thought I would! I mean, I'd been interested, but I hadn't expected to feel quite as strongly about it as I ended up feeling. I didn't realize that it was moving to a Sunday time slot, but I guess I'm ok with that. I don't think I normally have anything outside of things recorded on the DVR that I'm looking for on Sunday, so it won't have a lot of competition at least in my case. lol I have to say that there were a lot of pretty people in that show. Apparently they had the actress who plays Mulan on OUAT, and dang she's pretty. :3 Also the woman that's chasing them is pretty lovely. The lead guys not exactly my cup of tea but he's not bad. xD

Also, if you remember I was talking about our internet and tv not working? Well, it seems to have sorted itself out, we're not sure if it's because the weather outside has stablized (which it has a bit), or if there was something else out there causing a problem that was the raeson, or if it was because when we were cleaning around the cable stuff we'd noticed the splitter had been bumped a bit close to the heater and we moved it away. It's good that it has sorted itself out, because we called early Sunday morning to schedule a person to come out and check out the cable. The earliest they could do was 8 am to 8 pm on Monday (so today)... and they didn't show up. We kept the appointment in case there was something wrong that needed to be fixed (or if it would go out again, because it had tricked us already before), and they couldn't even be bothered to call and say nobody was going to be able to come. Scottie stayed home all day waiting for the cable guy to show up, and... nothing. Also mind you, as far as the cable company knows, we currently have NO internet or tv at all. e_e Gotta love the service, really.
Loki eyeroll

Also when I was walking home from work, I literally almost walked into a moose. It was grazing right next to my trail, and I was fiddling with the radio on my phone. I was like GAH OH HI THERE PLZ DON'T TRAMPLE ME THX. It was sort of amusing.

Time for bed~
