Serenity

Took this quiz about Serenity/Firefly. If I'd had to guess which character before taking it, Captain Reynolds is probably who I would have picked.

Your results:
You are Malcolm Reynolds (Captain)

Honest and a defender of the innocent. You sometimes make mistakes in judgment but you are generally good and would protect your crew from harm.

Captivating

Don't ask me what this means because I'm not really sure. I wouldn't tell you anyway.
Slipping, fading, pulse evading
Caution, slowing, soul cascading
Water flowing warm and angry
Crying for my god to save me
My vocal cords feel disconnected
Ear drums ring - in my eyes reflected
Visions of heat evaporating
Why is death so captivating?

Superhero

I wrote this a few days ago. It's supossed to be about a superhero struggling against the villain. I didn't really like it though. I couldn't come up with a finishing line I liked either. I've got another darker one I'll post later.

The picture is something I did almost 2 years ago. I'd love to do a comic about him some day but that's a long way off. The actual pencils on it took me probably 12 hours spread over about 2 weeks. When I do these realistic fully shaded pencils I can never just sit down and do the whole thing from start to finish. I can spend about 1-2 hours getting it started but then I've gotta stop and come back to it later or else I'll go crazy!





















Strike against my breaking back
Strike me when I start to slack
Shake the ground to make me tremble
Take away my hope, the symbol
Cause the rains to make me slip
So I can barely keep my grip
Until I fall down to my knee
And floods my eyes so I can’t see
Sound the drum and raise the horn
Remind me of the pain and scorn
Until the Angels sing in choir
And light my Soul in blazing fire
Until I rise from beneath the ruins

Superman


This is a work in progress of Superman. The concept is that he's looking up at a threat he doesn't think he can defeat.
It's a long way from being finished. I've gotta do the "S" and finish the shading. After that I'll try to clean up the smudges as best I can.

HD-DVD Lost

This is great news for me because I've got a PS3 and a bunch of BR movies and absolutely no desire to over-spend on a player just to watch movies.

Saw this video for 'Stargate - The Ark of Truth'
There still hasn't been a lot of footage from the movie shown (except the bootleg but I don't watch bootlegs) but if you watch carefully you'll see this giant spaceship (It's the Odyssey) activate the cloaking device... awesome. Stargate has some of the best looking ships in SciFi.

Slam Dunk Contest

Dwight Howard put on one of the best performances ever in the slam dunk contest. The irony is that the dunk everybody is still talking about is the "Superman" dunk... you know... the one he didn't actually dunk... :) He still deserved to win though. Now EA Sports needs to add that to next year's NBA Live.
