Dem bones |
Welcome to my blog, a slightly accurate collection of things from my head that I am willing to put online. I am studying palaeontology, and as such my blog is full of bones and skulls. Oddly enough, muscles and organs make me a little queasy. My blog will be a lot of bones and dead things, with personal posts about my life, my anxieties and my thesis. It also contains, but is not limited to, a bit of Doctor Who, Sherlock, Supernatural, Community, dinosaurs, science, animals (live ones this time), landscapes and pretty pictures, amusing things and a bit of comedy. I will do my best to tag things. Feel free to drop me a line to rave about bones and dead things, ask questions or just to say hi (I warn you about asking about my thesis, I may go on a bit). Enjoy my brain, folks. Feel free to stay a while. |

This was a fun project! For my half of a trade with a needle felter I know from Instagram, I was asked to make a Parasaurolophus. I made a Parasaurolophus once before, but I knew for the trade I wanted to go a lot bigger and more complex.
Pitta here is the end result! Measuring in at about 10 and a half inches long, she took me 28 hours over the course of two months (!!!!) to complete. (I’m not the fasted needle felter in the world.) She’s got a wire armature through her body, and separate wire cores in her limbs so you can bend her and pose her, and then those limbs are string-jointed for some extra poseability as well! Her little accessories are made from embroidery floss and some beads I had lurking in my jewelry kit.
I can’t wait to send her off to Maria, and to enjoy the baby raptor I’m going to get in return!
RIGHT ON

Geralt and Ciri’s reunion - part 5 (part 1) (part 2) (part 3) (part 4)
“Spotkali się pośrodku podwórka. Popielatowłosa dziewuszka w szarej sukieneczce. I białowlosy wiedźmin z mieczem na plecach, cały w czarnej skórze lśniącej od srebra. Wiedźmin w miękkim skoku, dziewuszka w truchciku, wiedźmin na kolanach, cienkie rączki dziewuszki dookoła jego szyi, popielate, mysie włosy na jego ramieniu.” Andrzej Sapkowski - “Miecz przeznaczenia”
“They met in the middle of the yard. Mousy haired little girl in grey dress. And the white haired witcher with a sword across his back, all in black leather, glimmering with silver. The witcher in a soft jump, little girl trotting, the witcher on his knees, the girl’s thin arms around his neck, grey, mousy hair on his shoulder.” Andrzej Sapkowski - “The Sword of Destiny”
It is funny how Geralt’s / Ciri’s memory changed details of this scene. Instead of a dirty village yard - a beautiful meadow. No black and silver clothes, no sword. But the way they found each other is the same. The way they run towards each other. I love the relationship between Geralt and Ciri.
