Core Final: First day of The Rabbit’s Hole Bunny Burlesque
Wow. I’m really ashamed of myself and am really glad I have a tent to hide in. I can’t see out of the mask I made and so my lovely choreographed dance is total crap when I wear the mask, because without my vision, I get really gun shy and kind of stumble about. Also, because of this, I forget my steps, because I’m so enthralled in not killing myself.
My best show was when I just went out and ditched my choreographed dance entirely and just kind of grinded around in front of these two ladies to “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”.
I’m so mad at myself!! I’m a better dance than this. I just can’t see to prove it. I think this is a very important lesson for me, because as a dancer I’ve always kind of relished in showing off and improvising my steps along with my choreographies. Now I can’t really do that because of my blindness and I keep forgetting the steps, so just dancing in the moment and throwing all the anal things I’ve been taught to the wind is where it’s at.
Also, being here for several hours on a Monday before a test, does not help: especially when there’s only two people viewing the gallery every few hours.
I hope I can get this dance down before my family arrives. This is really embarrassing. Sorry for rambling.
To make myself feel better, here’s an example of what I can really do pertaining to dancing. I’m the one on the right in blue.
Here are some drawings to keep you guys occupied, while I work on more pages. Been busy with school.
WARNING: Do not eat drawings. If consumed swallow large amounts of almond milk while playing Twister in your parents garage with a bunch of cosplay’ nerds while listening to the Avatar Soundtrack and screaming at your mom to “BRING MORE HOT POCKETS!”
P.S…..I will draw anything for the person who can think of the best stereotypical gamer/cosplay/comic book/Renaissance nerd food. I have a few, but if you make me laugh out loud I will draw whatever you want.
Also; yes I can make fun of these people. Because I am one.
Love, Candice
Here’s the Father’s Day card I made for my Dad, while you guys are waiting for the next comic.
SPOOL Page 9: What Are We Going To Do?
Ok, so…I realize this page is pretty heavy. I fully acknowledge that it features rape and murder. And not just murder, but the torturous murder of baby caterpillars in a boiling pot of water.
After drawing the frame where Janice is holding her baby, I realized I probably shouldn’t have made it look so human.
I apologize if I’ve offended anyone, but it is just a story and the story actually does have truth to it.
Bombyx Mori cocoons are indeed boiled and used for many things. One being for their silk. But also, the extract from these cocoons is used for medicinal purposes. There are other ways to get the silk besides boiling; such as allowing the cocoons to go through full term, but I’ve read that this can actually be worse since a lot of the caterpillars are starved afterward to decrease overpopulation. It’s all very sad, actually.
Pashmina, in its purest form, is one of the most expensive wools on Earth. I learned this, when reading about the world’s most expensive suit by Alexander Amosu.
“Using the world’s most luxurious fabrics is paramount to the quality of Alexander Amosu. One such fibre is Vicuna; a rare wild South American Camelid which only produces enough wool for shearing every three years. Another fibre used in the collection is Qiviuk; the world’s most expensive wool, gathered from the Arctic muskox, which sheds its coat once a year. Together, blended with Pashmina from the high mountain plateaus of the Himalaya’s they create the world’s most luxurious cloth: Vanquish II.”
Well, certainly, Patrick isn’t wearing a Vanquish II gold threaded suit, but I didn’t want him to wear a barrel with suspenders to the fashion show, did I?
