Posting is better than standing up

Having drawn Fenris in the style of Klee and an AT-AT in the style of Escher (to be scanned when I have the energy to walk to the scanner), I need one more "X in the style of Y" for this meme. I want some variety, so not anyone I've already drawn or tend to draw like eg Mucha, Klee, Escher, typical manga. Noone too abstract either :P EDIT: Done!

Went to emma_in_dream's house today and had a lovely time. The day was only marred by me getting the address wrong and spending 15 minutes driving around lost before giving up and ringing lilysea. It made me too tired and jittery to stay as long as I'd have liked, and now I have sunburn in a perfect line around where I applied sunscreen on my arms :/

I visited fred_mouse a little while before that, this whole visiting people thing is great! Must make more plans to visit people in the future.

I've been playing Mass Effect 2 with my renegadey femShep Sal, it's been such fun. She tends to make the relatively moral choice on big questions like killing Wrex but is quite happy to murder individuals who get in her way. I've been taking Jack and Kasumi, they have fun dialogue and do their cool glowing/sneaking thing while I hide in the shadows and snipe. I'm not too fussed about romance at this stage, I just finished Horizon and while pissed at Kaidan she's only very slightly heartbroken, I'll probably end up flirting with Jacob then dump him for Garrus (THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR CHEATING) but the only character she finds very attractive is Miranda of all people. I have trouble imaging her choosing anything but destroy in ME3 but we'll see. I actually HAVEN'T USED ANY CHEATS so far. (Yes, on easy, hush)

Still playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, too. It's pretty good! The combat isn't very exciting but the world is huge and engaging and some of the problems can be solved with maths :D I learned a MASSIVE spoiler about my character which has actually made the game a little more interesting and I'm curious to see how it all plays out. The universe feels bigger than the Mass Effect universe somehow.

Ursula Vernon's vivid animals!

[alias_sqbr]

Which animal?

[lea_hazel]

Oh! Hmm. A Mabari hound? Or a nug. That would be cute.

Wow, that Klee-style pic looks really convincingly like the real deal. You could put that up in a gallery and no one would guess it was fanart/pop culture). Love the colors, too.

[alias_sqbr]

Wow, thank you! The colours I must admit I eyedropper-ed from an Actual Klee painting, though I did fiddle with them a little after that :)

While it won't be the same, massive spoilers do not necessarily ruin the appreciation of the SWTOR stories :)
(Which doesn't mean I wasn't pleased to discover, at the fight with the Consular's Big Bad, that I had correctly guessed the identity of said Big Bad approximately one planet earlier)

What class is the spoiled character?

[alias_sqbr]

Scout!

I've been playing KOTOR for the first time too, and the maths puzzles make me so happy! Even if I did discover that I'd entirely forgotten what logarithims were since high school.

Sequences and series are one of the first subjects covered in the first year maths syllabus at the uni I tutored at for six years, they are written pretty deeply into my brain. I really like the idea of a universe where high school level number sequences are cutting edge cryptography, it's one of the few times a self insert fantasy could end well :)
