Admin Post: Community Check-In for January 2018

[goss]

Tomorrow will be the last day of the month, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in January, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

(Wow, feels like New Year's was just the other day! Hard to believe a whole month has flown by already. :b )

Fandom stockings got revealed. I'll be able to link what I did here once I am home.

I have a drawing I want to do, but am unsure how to approach it. Even terrible doodles are a lot of work for me, so I have have bitten off more than I can chew. It's based on the SPG 10th Anniversary Concert. But at least I have good photo refs of my own to use.

I'm a SPG fan too and I love their aesthetic :) Good luck with your project!

[olivermoss]

Thanks! Have you seen Jon and Upgrade pics from the show yet? I have a few up and am working on more.

[dylan_mx]

I haven't. Where can I see them?

[olivermoss]

I have one of The Jon up here and working on getting an album up on my site. Their official Tumblr has been reblogging pics, so if you scroll through you can see some more :)

[dylan_mx]

:D thanks!

[olivermoss]

Welcome!

I've finished working on my own pictures, they are all up here if you'd like to see.

omg concert lighting plus reflective faces was like nightmare mode for photography

[dylan_mx]

:D very nice pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Looking forward to your fandom stockng links! What is SPG?

[olivermoss]

Steam Powered Giraffe. They are a Steampunk band that just had an anniversary show with all their old members back.

I did two drawings for Fandom Stockings, one Leverage and one Person of Interest.

Oh I remember the one with the dog! Nice :-)

SPG looks like a cool band, I didn't even know that Steampunk had its own music genre :-)

[olivermoss]

Thanks!

Steampunk's got a lot of music. Abney Park, Cog Is Dead, Professor Elemental, Rasputina, etc. I listen to SPG and Professor Elemental a lot. I should branch out into other Steampunk and Steampunk-ish bands more often :)
