Unknown Entry 076

Now this girl looks like someone who came out of Ragnarok Online. But I’ve never played the game before, so I can’t be sure, especially with all the character upgrades they’ve done over the years!

She does remind me of the Gypsy character though… I wonder if that’s an accurate guess? Please help me out, guys! Thanks again to Gundamu for the photo!

flea market finds

For the first time in weeks I actually had a couple of good oppy finds. A little teak bust and a cool 1970's plastic globe that will replace the one the kids destroyed last week. Wooden sculpture, mid century primitive art and globes are some of my favourite things to hunt for when I'm scouring op shops or markets. I admit that the demand for globes adds to the excitement. Their scarcity and desirability adds to the appeal, you feel a bit like you've struck vintage gold when you snag a good one.

For more flea market finds pop over and visit Sophie at Her Library Adventures.

Mayoi Neko Overrun!: Serizawa Fumino

When I first saw this in my inbox, it made me think of Toradora!’s Aisaka Taiga. She has blond hair, and the same tsundere attitude just like Taiga, but I don’t think they ever had uniforms like this in the series.

Does anyone have a better idea? Thanks to Bonamana for sending this!

EDIT: Thanks to kawainu for commenting she's Serizawa Fumino from Mayoi Neko Overrun!

We were meant to head into Federation Square with some friends of Mr Curbside to join in on the Diwali festivities today. Food, music, dancing and lots of childrens entertainment had us all pumped for a really exciting family day out, but alas the rain came down and with it our chance to celebrate the Hindu new year with some Indian friends. So, in lieu of all the fabulous photos I'm sure I would have taken to share with you today, here are a bunch of Diwali pic's from Flickr. 

One Piece: Boa Hancock

Have a fabulous weekend and enjoy all the spooky shenanigans you're going to be getting up to... :)

animation friday....

I'm running a bit late today, thankfully I had some coloured card stock and paper doily's on hand or I would have been without subject matter or indeed a blog post.

For more animation Friday fun and a quick and easy tutorial, pop on over the the My Poppet blog.

Naruto: Uchiha Itachi 02

Because of the violence of war Itachi experienced during his early childhood, he longed for peace and wished to achieve it at any cost. This was the reason why he became a double agent when his clan planned a coup d'état against Konohagakure. He was given orders to assassinate all of the Uchiha, but could not bring himself to kill his younger brother, Sasuke. He made himself out as a villain and joined the criminal organization, Akatsuki, continuing his work as an agent of Konoha.

Beautiful cosplay! I’ve always liked this character despite being the villain in Naruto. Thanks to Trida for sending this!

EDIT: Thanks to anon for commenting the cosplayer is Jesuke!

I'm a fan of Franck Juery's work.  It strikes a chord with me, and while I love talking in general, I'm not much for sharing why I love art work in detail, preferring instead to share the visual experience.  The Franck Juery website is a place where you could easily lose yourself for quite some time. Love it.
