Prompt I Response

Gabrielle is a witch traveling to nowhere, searching for a home.
Luckily, she is not alone.

Have a good New Year's Eve/Day, people <3

Prompt V Response

"When I woke up on the train..."

...yes, the lamp is still following me.
Hello, my name is Kat and I'm a smartass :D

Prompt V

This is a bit gross and confusing but I was feeling nerdy and a bit stumped so I tried to draw doomtrain from FF8..

I totally fudged his design so it probably looks nothing like the original thing. Maybe one day I'll wake up in doomtrain. ° u °

Prompt V response

here's my (admittedly lacklustre) response to "when I woke up on the train..."




I was going to do something entirely different, but I got to thinking about how Leiji Matsumoto's Galaxy Express 999 concepts, and Kenji Miyazawa's novella Night on the Galactic Railroad really inspire me. I've been wanting to do a retelling of the latter for a long time, using my own characters.

This part would be towards the end, when the train is approaching the "Coal Sack", and Campanella (here, Chimera) disappears.

Do you like my kindergartener-level trains 8D?

Prompt IV Response

She is Herself, a newer face in my sketches.
She never speaks, and keeps to herself, and wanders the land contemplating what this world was and what it has become.

Doodle inspired by listening to the prompt song on repeat for about three hours and looking at way too many Brian Froud pictures :|
Please note that this character is not nearly as depressed as she looks.
(textures were created by talented people.)

Prompt V and Prompt IV info

Hello everyone. Prompt IV ("All Things Beautiful") is still due TOMORROW, Tuesday 12/22/09, by midnight CST. I posted it late last week, so there you go.


But for next MONDAY, your prompt, Prompt V, is to expand on this:


"When I woke up on the train..."


_{(if you choose to respond with prose, no, that definitely does not have to be your first sentence.)}


And that's that. If you're celebrating any holidays, I hope you all are having or will have very happy ones!

Prompt I

I made him promise not to fall asleep, because that's when the cold gets you, but it was a promise I couldn't even keep myself.

Borrowed the redhead from a friend. The large, one-eyed blonde is mine.
Also I forgot what this had to do with Pushkin ¯\(°_o)/¯









Also I am sorry that this is taking up space on your blog.

Prompt I(monthly): Winter Journey Response

Some children had rocking chairs. Evan had a walking chair. For as long as he could remember (which, considering his age, could not have been too long) the chair took him wherever he wanted to go, despite his parents and at times even despite himself. The warnings were a tease, a joke of the older folks at first, but after a time Evan forgot how to get down, and the chair had forgotten how to stop...

Prompt IV Response

Our last morning was peaceful. The animals had laid down and died the night before, and from my windowsill I could see them in the fields- sheep, horses, cats, even flocks of birds, who had laid upon the earth to fall asleep and had never gotten up again. The morning dew had pushed up innumerable flowers around them, as if to say "goodbye, goodbye, goodbye," and I smiled and whispered my own farewells along with them.

You have all been so good to me. You have been such good friends. I will always think of you so fondly.

The sky was beginning to melt like butter across the mountains and the valleys, and there was no suffering where it fell, golden, soft, and silent. Heaven was coming down to meet me, and I nodded and let a tear roll down my cheek.

There will never be another day like this one.

Prompt IV: All Things Beautiful

So sorry everyone. I don't have a constant internet connection anymore and was unable to post my (lacklustre) response, OR the new prompt. My question for you is: Would you rather the deadline for this prompt be for next Monday or Tuesday?


Your prompt this week is not an image! It is an instrumental song. Before any of you accuse me of sucking my own dick (pardon my vernacular), I... will gladly admit to it. I find the song very beautiful, melancholy and uplifting, and very inspiring. I hope you find it the same, and if you don't, then an angry or displeased response will also do nicely.

I hope this is satisfactory for everyone and that it gives you a bit more leeway than lamps in a forest.

Prompt III Response

Haha, the image first made me think of this story I never worked on but still love to death. It was about Neverland (kind of) and how the Lost Children (not just boys) don't believe in the "real world" and think adults are just make-believe.

I might work on this more tomorrow in Photoshop, but yeah. Blah blah blah, sketch.

Prompt III

I'm sorry it's so small.. ugh finals and all that. orz;; But this is a little pixel I did! Maybe I'll animate it when I am more competent~
