I must ask the obvious, is your taste in literature as good as your taste in baking is? Is your username from the bookseries by Roger Zelazny? If so, I must commend you on being a excellent person.

I did indeed take my name from the Chronicle of Amber book series. I've been a Zelazny fan since I was about 6 years old to be honest.
As for showing people the exploding cupcakes...well I'll remember to take a picture next time it happens.

I might have been thinking of the toffees, the ones that get bigger and bigger as you suck them, then vanish suddenly. Though I'm sure Silky did make some very interesting cakes as well.

Been quite a while since I posted anything on here, so I figured I'd put the couple of recent ones up here :)
This one is how my hair ended up after the most recent trip to the hairdresser, finally getting rid of the pink that'd it'd been for six months after colouring it for charity, and on a whim getting them to curl it as tight as they could:
And here's a couple of an outfit I wore to a Burlesque outing with a bunch of friends. First photo is by one of the girls I went along with, who is semi-professional, the second is a dodgy in-the-bathroom-mirror shot with my phone.

Considering replacing it soon with one that fits me a bit better (my proportions have changed since I got this one).
I've seen quite a few of the "Fork Kraken" necklaces at markets and such recently too.

They do look pretty cool.
So. Photos. I has some. Not particularly interesting nor attractive ones (except the butterfly), but anyway.
If they're still big for you, sorry. I've resized them, but it might not register yet.

Not so sure, it seems like the kind of thing a friend of mine might do, and she's had a fair amount of success with converting items of clothing into completely different items of clothing. Maybe you just did it wrong. :smalltongue:

I also really like the new one. Of course, it being the same costume, the only difference really is you, so I guess what I'm saying is I prefer the Serp I know to the one from the past.
Also in the old photo the makeup round your eyes looks weird.
The butterfly is also pretty.

Re: You! (A picture/Media thread) Thread XXXI: Roman Numerals Make Everything Fancy
It's more the photo itself I have a problem with. The pose and colour are all wrong, and I forgot to take my glasses off, and I was feeling too silly about it to ask for a re-do.
-
Re: You! (A picture/Media thread) Thread XXXI: Roman Numerals Make Everything Fancy
Actually, the colours are fantastic in that new one. The mix of blues and greens gives it a fae-like or ethereal quality. Also, the way the light shines through sunglasses creates a really nice effect on your face.

@Serpentine: I'm going to echo The Succubus here and say that the colours in the new one are fantastic. They remind me kind of like a person who has entered the world of faeries and sees everything in vibrant shades of blue and green. Shame the illusion is interrupted by the Hill's hoists.

It's actually purple silk :) The lighting and flash does all kinds of interesting things to the colour.

No, it'd probably be my eyes. I'm always getting certain shades of purple confused with blue. Now that I know it's purple, it looks purple.

No, because I'm not colourblind. However, I am deficient when it comes to reds and greens, so the purples that stand on the line between blue and purple often appear blue to me.

Re: You! (A picture/Media thread) Thread XXXI: Roman Numerals Make Everything Fancy
So I just joined the forum. I went a little photo crazy today, because I'm sick and had nothing to do, plus I have an art project due which required me to do something called a "dramatic" self portrait. Contrary to what my personality makes people think, I really don't like photo's. The reason is quite simple, light bounces heavily off of my cheeks, making them seem very pronounced, and my pimples look HUUUGE, when they're really not.
Also.. I'm eighteen in just a few months, so I believe (and am told) I look very young for my age. I know, I know, in a few years I'll be grateful for it. But right now, it bugs me. BUT!! I'm still new to the forum and need to show you all what I look like, so you know who you're talking to.
The first few photos we took were with my currently un-modded mask on. In a few months I'll upload pictures of the end result of the mask. For now though, here are my 2nd and 3rd favorite pictures with it. The first being my profile pic.

I was trying to give a creepy "hunchbacked" sort of appearance while trying to convey being.. Unseen? I guess? The "unseen" part didn't work, but I think I came off as nice and creepy. Plus! The hunchback worked. Yay?
See me
Alternate title: No, I don't have a gold tooth. Shush.

This time I tried to add a bit of distance perspective by craning my head forwards. I think it worked again, though this time I didn't look as creepy as I'd like. There was no intention of "trying to hide" in this image, so I' actually HAPPY that, that doesn't show.
I have a few more with the mask, but I didn't want to clutter the thread, so here are some of the better ones WITHOUT the mask.
Unaligned eyes

This one makes me look even younger and, honestly, I'm not a huge fan of it. However, I needed to take one like this because of an art project, so eh. I'll be uploading this as a drawing as well.. Eventually.
Serpentine: LOVE the butterfly, the butterfly wings AND the mask! Did you make the mask yourself? More importantly, how did you get the butterfly to land on you? The big one on your back, I mean. Those giant ones are so reclusive in my area.
Dispoziton: Sweet hair man. If I was blond, I would 100% Do that with my hair. But.. I'm not. Dark brown bordering on black hair for me. Funny thing, this hairstyle I have here? Only my third day with it, I usually have a muuuch different, kind of geeky style.
Everyone else: I'll comment later, don't feel like going backwards in the thread :smallbiggrin: sorry.

I want your hair.
You have awesome hair.
I'm not sure whether to continue growing my hair out or try and cut it and go for a mohawk. Mohawk is a lot of work but I want to try it if this growing-hair-out thing puffs up too much.

Not soon after. We continued to furiously shovel for another good 3 hours. After that though, much coffee, pizza, and hot chocolate was consumed. I actually wasn't that cold. That big fur hat is Russian military issue, so it is quite warm. I love it, and have named it Vasili. :smallbiggrin:
