From the monthly archives: "August 2010"

Hello. Sorry about this post. I haven’t been feeling great lately.
But today I’m going to Tunisia! I’ll be gone for a week or so.
Hopefully it will be great. I need a vacation. I don’t know if I
will have access to internet while I’m there (probably not) so
I won’t be updating my blog. But I’ll tell you all about it when
I get home! And also, I have a suiting soundtrack for my trip:

Douster – King of Africa

Brb – going to Africa!

once there was a girl who told people that she was not terrible.
But who am I kidding?

I’m tired. I want to go back to that place between sleep and dead.
You can’t save me. I don’t want to be saved. But when you lie
there next to me on the sofa, almost awake, almost asleep,
there is no other place in the world I’d rather be.
You’re my best friend and I could never leave you.

“So here’s my heart, and here’s my mouth
And I can’t help if things come out’
Cause there are words I want to shout
But maybe I’ll stay low”

Hello. It’s been a while since I last posted here. I’ve been busy.
Also, Sofia is back from Japan! I’ve missed her so much!
And Jens is back from Ungern. I’ve missed him too.
(I know you might think that’s weird but really, it’s not)
and I get to hear about Sofias’ great adventures in Japan. <3
Also, I have brown hair now. it need some rest from all bleaching and stuff.

I also uploaded this look on lookbook.

Environment assignment
I chose to do a steampunk inspired city outcast in the desert.
also a good place for a hideout for the protagonists. I did two versions, one
at dusk/night and one at dawn/day. Speedpaintings done in less than 2 hours.
I would have done more detailed drawings but since I’ve been ill I just had to
throw something together quick.

Someone said it looks like “steampunk slums in midgar”
I think so too :D

Character Assignment
My character and prop design is also very steampunk-inspired. I didn’t have much time left to do the background though, so it is more of a speed-painting. But I was more interested in getting the right feeling for the picture instead of drawing a very detailed background.

Moodboard for the female protagonist.

Ok so, when I feel bad, what do I do? I go shopping! … I know I really shouldn’t
but there was a great sale at Indiska, so I bought a lot of things to our new apartment!
So here are some pictures of my new room <3 It’s not done yet though.
I need to spray paint a few things, and hang up the rice lamps in the corner.

Bedspread, carpet, curtains, cushion and colored pillows from Indiska.
Small table with candles from Chilli.
Chinese wall rolls from.. I think they’re from China.

Decorations from Indiska and Lagerhaus.
