As they say, 'Well, you got a song out of it.'
And yes, the kittehs were asleep.

>.> Really cute A-Z of Japan, using the visual elements of the associated words to make alphabetical peeeecturez!
I came to the rather disturbing realisation this morning that my style of 'cooking' is almost exactly like MMO crafting.
- Get raw chicken (or cow, or piggy, or ... whatever)
- Add assorted herbs that I like (lotus seeds, fake cordyceps, polygonatum rhizona, lily flowers, whatever)
- Mix the entire mass together in a large-ish bowl, with spices from a premixed spicepack
- Pour water in rice cooker (about half the cooker's capacity)
- Put bowl in rice cooker
- Turn on and close rice cooker
- Press down button
- Wait till done
- NOM!
In other words, collect ingredients in backpack, press button and wait. O.o
The funniest thing is, with the right spicepack choices, this actually produces delicious (if not particularly aesthetic) food!
>.> <.< Advanced crafting requiring skeelz? >.> <.< Pah!
P.S.: One can even craft ginormous muffins this way.
Livebrush is interesting for a couple of reasons, not least among them that it seems to present a more intuitive and fluid way to work with vector brushwork than Illustrator.
Takes a bit of getting used to, though, because what dictates the width/strength of the lines isn't pressure, but speed. The faster I move my brush, the fatter the lines I get.
That being said, I am a total nub at this, so it's entirely possible that there's a way to adjust so that the lines respond to pressure, and not speed.
The program itself seems pretty nice in terms of responsiveness, and the kinds of lines that are generated. Especially nice is that for just US$10, I'll have the option to export the entire thing as vector shapes.
I'll probably play with this some more on my upcoming holiday.
I also find it interesting how adapting to / learning this new tool has resulted in something quite far (I think) from my usual linework... Omm!
The above occurred to me as I was poinging on a good friend a couple of days ago.
Nuggeet: I know that sounds totally nonsensical, but that's how it feels to a nuggeet!
Friend: ZOMG Nuggeet! Mai bro just said something really close to that a while ago, and he's like this totally hardcore FPS player!
Nuggeet: ZOMG!
Friend: ZOMG!
Us: LOLZ!
Maybe I'm onto something here...

Our shiny new corporate site, for which I did 80% of the design/conceptualisation, all of the illustration, and all of the copywriting, was featured on Smashing Magazine!
(80% of the design because I extensively reworked someone else's original 'base' design.)
