GIP

Look, kids, cupcakes!

ETA: Actually, it's a wee bit dark, because things tend to be more contrasty in Image Ready than they are in either Photoshop or real life. So I might go back into Photoshop and "select color range" a little, try and bring his face out of that shadow. I'd also like to play with the pewtery effect of the flask, which runpunkrun was able to make a gorgeous burnished color but I lost it when I put the reddish wash on.

I also wish I had a "tweed" texture effect to use for that background and his coat, hm. I wonder where I can download textures for Image Ready?

Still! Squee! The Hemingwayesque Captain Lewis Nixon!

GIP again

For I'm discovering the healing powers of a new green wash.

No reason my homies here can't enjoy these as well. Plus I just said "homies" which is really remarkable, there.

So, some Speirs icons:

And if you know or care who this fellow is, enjoy!

So I was actually gonna *invent* this meme but it seems someone beat me to it. Since I tend to take visual snapshots of my imaginary computer friends (that'd be y'all) and they appear, much like my impressions of various fandoms do, in colors and textures and icons.

prillalar, for example, who I've never met in person, looks like Captain Hook to me. And wearemany, with whom I've shared a bed countless times and who I could sketch with my eyes closed, still, in this box, looks like Russell Crowe shouting about REARS AND VICES. qowf, one of my very first fandom-real-life crossover people, will always be Aragorn, to the point where when I was watching RotK, every time Viggo came on the screen I half expected Lucas to be perched on his hip with a cute hat on.

So what about me? Past or present icons, or see them here; what does Sab look like? Which of my icons best represents me?

Hey. tangleofthorns and gem225. Have you met? You are both in Boston. You should take this opportunity to say hello and then, like, go see a show at Passim or the Middle East together. Because you'd like one another and you also share musical tastes.

This has been a Sabbish PSA.

my whole life is on the tip of my tongue

And yet, this is somewhat upsetting.
I suppose it could be worse.
I could be Emily Dickinson.


You are Virginia Woolf! You were openly bisexual
and had public affairs, but you never liked
sex. You wrote a seminal feminist work, long
before feminists knew that they were feminists.
In this vein, you never really considered
yourself a feminist. You were a tragic figure,
but a damn genius.


Which Western feminist icon are you?
