Artist's Comments

AlicexHatter123, prompts 5-8.

No, they won't all be up one after another this fast. Haha, that's crazy.

05. together we're both alone - - probably not what anybody was expecting, including me, but somehow, it seemed to fit. It's got a very quiet-sigh sort of melancholy to it.

06. hanging - - Oh, silly, silly, silly. As soon as the idea was there, it had to be done, I didn't really have a choice. Even with the white hair, Hatter looks younger than poor Harrison Ford in Indy 4. Aww.

One of these people thinks they were born for this part. The other person doesn't agree, but is probably having more than than they'd care to admit.

A bit of art failure here in that Reg's chest looks even thinner than it's supposed to, which is already too thin. It doesn't end where the white shirt ends. My favourite parts: Alice's hair and shoes.

07. cocktail time - - mini fanfic!
~~
... So engrossed was he in his mischief that he failed to notice her presence until a slim hand reached around his shoulder and plucked his weapon away. He turned to look back, a deep pout awaiting marching orders, but something in her look stopped him short. He even had the decency to look sheepish, which was somewhat miraculous under the circumstances. Her mouth twitched.

"Reggie, you simply must stop this dreadful hobby. Look, I've brought you one of those lovely sugary drinks you like." She turned the slingshot over in her hand and wrinkled her nose in distaste. "Is this how you spent all your afternoons before we met? Knocking off people's hats from dawn til dark?"

"Oh no, my dear. Nothing of the kind. Only on Sundays."

"Well I think it's very unkind."

"But extremely amusing, particularly if you can pop the little fellows off without making a noise. They lift off like little zeppelins and nobody the wiser until they feel the draft - sometimes ten yards - turning round in circles like chickens - it's a splendid sight - why, I read a smashing book once where - "

His voice was rising in excitement. She jostled his arm until the wild look went out of his eyes again. "Enough, enough - drink your sugar."

His sigh was somewhat wistful, but resigned. "Of course, ma cherie..."
~~

08. the stuff that dreams are made of - - Yeah, I know - I was going to do a Maltese Falcon spoof, but I also wanted to do a pretty Mucha thing. Everybody digs Mucha. So, alternate interpretation plz.


Trying out the vertical layout here. Better? Worse?

I completely adore "hanging." Too funny!

I love the style!

Are your eyes confessing things I alone can see? Or is my imagination flying away with me?
:iconvaladilenne:
I--I'm... I'm having a seizure. Of ecstasy.

Hang on.

*SPASM*

Okay.
You have me at number three. Uncle Fred + Brazil Nuts - Police Helmet = my favorite book ever. Spreading sweetness and light!

And the Mucha omg

Can we be best friends forever? Or at least like AIM friends?
:iconmrpiggyandfriends:

Sprechen Sie mit mir auf Deutsch!
:iconyesterdayzchild:
Um, where to begin?
You may assume much squee-ing. :giggle:
Moving on:
5. That's absolutely genius! Hmm...where could they be? ;)
6. Indy is awesome. Reggie as Indy=even better! I love their expressions and Alice's shoe falling off.... :XD:
7. Mini-fanfic is love! So is everything else in this piece...
8. ...and this one! That is absolutely gorgeous--so art nouveau and harmonious.

lol--Valadilenne's comment makes me giggle :giggle:

The vertical layout IS easier to scroll--but I do think the horizontal layout looks better visualy, for grouping.

:icontell-me-lies:
We could be, except you might not want to anymore when I admit that I've... never actually read it.

DISGRACE

If Project Gutenberg had it, I would have done, and you would've never had to know.

If you can accept that I fully intend to go the library this week, then we can still be best friends forever. Remember the Mucha, after all.

I actually do have AIM, by the bye - remind me to send you a note with it.

My talent for exaggeration is the biggest, most massive talent it is humanly possible to have.

Call on God, but row away from the rocks.
:iconvaladilenne:
I FORGIVE YOU

Just know that it's one of Wodehouse's funniest books--so funny, in fact, that I have a tattoo of that famous phrase. Uncle Fred is the bad relative we all want in our family tree.

Oh, Mucha. We all sigh a collective sigh and wish he were still around--or at the very least that his high art nouveau style would make a comeback in a big way.
:icontell-me-lies:
It's the silliest thing, but I love the one-shoe-falling-off thing. It's like adventure-poster shorthand for me - I've used it more than once.

I agree with you about the layout - it's terribly vexing. I'll have to come up with some clever solution (I hope).

The indie one cracks me up, but the last one is just beautiful! Love how elegant you made her look.

This is the story of the Ugly Barnicle...
He was so ugly that everybody died.
The End!
