whenever u feel sad just remember that there are billions of cells in ur body and all they care about is u

I am made of my own fanclub

So after that…….

Uness you have an autoimmune disease where there is an endless battle of rogue immune cells labeling everything they can find as For Immediate Destruction. Much of the time they make up a smallish number (a few thousand antibodies per blood test…) but then the cascade starts….

Luckily they are usually defined. My current rogue soldiers are waging “Operation Synovium”. This is not too difficult as it covers all your joint spaces, all around tendons and ligaments and even your internal organs.

I’d like to think there are some cells trying to chill these dudes out, and so far they are coming in pre-prepared syringes of mono-clonal goodness.

So, keep that fanparty going! Love and appreciate it, truly and honestly 🙂 There is no jealousy here 🙂 Just be sensible and love those cells back. I get sad when I hear people taking there fanclub for advantage.

Eurogamer:

In Omega, the new downloadable add-on for BioWare’s science fiction role-playing shooter Mass Effect 3, two never before playable characters steal the show.

Sure, Shepard is the main man/woman, but fans will be most interested in the two new party members you get to control.

The first of these is Aria T’Loak, the frowning asari mob boss who, in her view, is the rightful owner of Omega, the space station last seen in Mass Effect 2.

Aria is a powerful biotic – one of the most powerful, BioWare Montreal producer Fabrice Condominas tells Eurogamer. And her abilities, created specifically for her use, reflect that power. Flare is “probably one of the most powerful” biotic explosive attacks in the game and is great for clearing groups of enemies. Lash sends a biotic lash out onto the battlefield, attracting enemies to her and doing heavy damage. Lash is particularly useful against shielded enemies – a single attack can drop a shields in an instant. So powerful is Aria that BioWare had to rebalance the combat gameplay to cope.

But it is the second new party member that will attract the most attention. Her name is Nyreen Kandros, the turian leader of the Talon mercenary group and the first female turian to be seen in the Mass Effect video games.

Nyreen is ex-turian military, but, despite this, she is a biotic (turian military hierarchy prohibits biotic powers). Her powers aren’t as devastating as Aria’s, but she’s still useful in combat. Her Biotic Grenade ability does exactly what it says on the tin, and Biotic Protector raises a magic shield, useful for keeping her alive when the chips are down.

First look at female turian in ME3 Omega DLC: A couple of screenshots have popped up online today for the multiplatform title, “Mass Effect 3.” The latest images provide a first look at a Female Turian that appears in the upcoming Omega DLC for the role-playing…

Ehem. It should come as no surprise that I now have a new project. This shall be a challenge as I still do not have a head cast and I am extremely claustrophobic. Which makes getting a head cast and wearing full facial prosthetics a challenge.

While fighting severe fatigue and a fair bit of burn out, I am about to go elt some clay to start the base texture. This is going to work best as multiple pieces, again.

Dress ca. 1908

From LACMA

Oh wow, I love the cutouts. I’m gonna have to try that sometime.

Droooool.. there are some really lovely photos of this dress on Flickr (I’ve faved a few: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sheila-walter/5270977207/in/faves-91424360@N00/ ) so you can see the texture and colour a little more clearly.

Stunning, absolutely glorious and making me want to spend summer scanning my Girls Own Annuals. My earliest is 1906 latest 1911 so covers this perfectly. I have a few articles on tripod and will move them to here on another blog 🙂

The first and last is the same costume 😉 I had only ever seen the studio photos, the first looks like it is from the film set.

And Leelee Sobieski makes it here twice as well, in two different roles.

Is it bad I knew each piece? I might have a wee bitty collection of cross over armour types. Especially based on Gothic plate. Just… just… glorious…

BABY

Wow this costume department is amazing! Seriously, this gown contains some spoilers, though it is a natural extension of what we have seen in the second series. Just think about where that collar shape was first seen…

This is why I love costume. Its not about prety frocks, it’s not just about gret technique, it’s about character. And sometimes it makes you think and put pieces of a puzzle together.

This show does costumes like I have wanted see to on film and tv for a bloody long time. My feelings on the show itself are a bit more complex (which is also something I have wanted for a very long time!). If you don’t have a clue about symbolism you can still at least see that there are regional differences in clothing and hair- defined by the elements and the clannish aspects to the families.

It’s everything we ever learnt in the great costume design books right there, actually used.

Ummm.. just wow. I had no idea I was heading up to SGH for a photoshoot that Thomas so kindly wrangled for me. I had a “dur” moment when I realised though… ehem. There is a latex bald cap glued over my ears as well as the lekku as well as the ear buds so I missed most of what anyone said unless they were speaking directly at an ear bud so I blame the costume. Yeah. These silly costumes, to quote from another franchaise.

This one photo makes up for oh so much trouble getting to and from D*C as well as some stinky health issues that plagued both Celebration and D*C.

Thank you SGH, Kristy and Thomas.

SGh for the art and letting me be truly Sith, Kristy for so patiently painting my back and working with products you had never tried before and to Thomas for organising a last minute photoshoot with SGH and for being my eyes and ears and at times sensible adult.
