Damn, that's some fine detail work. Talented!
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?
[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
TWO HOURS EACH. I can't even imagine. I can't imagine how she erased at that scale.

Art Crawl!!!
Of course:
2H, H and B 0.5mm mechanical pencils
I always preferred the Bs and the HB pencil myself. (I could never, ever, do that. . . )

Because books.
I love how she lists in her materials "a lot of dizziness". That's incredible.
YOU COULD PUT ONE IN A LOCKET.
You know, if you were like *that*.
Which I'm not.
No, really.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I usually work with .3mm mechanical pencils (2H to start, sometimes 2B to finish), and I can't even imagine.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Done with pencil on paper, instead of effects over photo, real--or regular--sized, those would be very good. Miniature? Really amazing.
I don't draw. I have sketched, and erased about 3/4 to leave 1/4 of the effort, exactly two things I could claim to be satisfied with. But my hand won't do what my eyes see, so I understand when an artist does each feature correctly, but then the put-together just looks nothing like the subject.
I don't know what the difference is between drawing a portrait "correctly" and missing both likeness and spirit, and somehow getting the essence of a person or a character, whether the technique is "correct" or not. But I figure the difference is what defines an artist.
All by way of saying, those miniatures are truly amazing.

You can submit questions for Mo Ryan to ask at Paleyfest here.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Wow, those are pretty amazing, I agree.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Questions for the paleyfest. Didn't we just have a "if you go to a con, ask this"? Our opportunity.
Crazy like a fox, and crazy like a person with little grip on or respect for reality are two different things, and the latter crazy I've seen far outstrips Misha's shenanigans.
Yes, but dude was going to be executed by the Queen of England, but escaped. Now he is mailing individual puzzle pieces to fans. Reality is somewhere Misha chooses not to be. But I do love him. And he makes me laugh and laugh. Especially when his reaction to the next Choose the Best Show was "how many of these fucking things do we have to win?" Bwah. I would like to play with Misha for a few hours but then he would have to go home and give me rest time. That sounds dirty but it's not. I imagine us playing dress up and pin the tail on the donkey. Maybe a bonus makeup make over.
Those tiny drawings are amazing. Wow.

You think those people vilifying Genevieve and Daneel and stalking the houses and spitting at them on twitter are choosing not to partake of reality? Misha knows what time it is. Those fans do not and don't care.
