Having lived with them all over the place for so long I often forgot that for some Sheep are not the norm.

So here are a few shots of the fluffy Ovines. (these are a mix of mine and my bros shots)

Yes i know those are calfs…but i like the way they seem to be eyeballing each other.

Could be a calender photo fro Spring.

Great dissaproving look.

Bit of a poser.

The Thoughts pf a sheep mostly….’Do you know.. it think there may be grass down there’

Make me want summer all the more looking at this.

What Sheep do best….chew.

Ah This is weird sheep. Weird sheep is perhaps the most unusual sheep we have ever seen, it wasn’t a black face but it did have a really strange brown underfur when yound and grew up to be almost entirely round, fluffy and with that distinctive brown underbelly. Plus when it was a lamb it moved and looked almost exactly like a hare.

This facinating creature, had one blue eye and one horn. And it came to just outside our house gate and hung around for maybe half a day before dying

Okay here are a few pics from a few days ago from a better Photographer and a better camera (my bro)

 

And another Video log! I was going to say more but in the end i couldn’t think of anything interesting lol

also once again sorry for the sound quality.

I’ve not really used many Social networks or sites like Xanga so this is most likely old news but still…

Over the past littel while as i’ve been using Xanga and teaching my self SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) I’ve started to notice just
how incredible these networks are, together we are all bringing the world into a new age and it’s all happening at the speed of a click.

There are many big names in the new thrust of spiritual and self help community who are using the internet and social networks to broadcast
this sort of message, but whats really striking me at the moment is that as humans we don’t even need someone telling us to promote peace
or share love and support, because we naturaly do that anyway.

10Million Clicks for Peace

On Xanga and other sites like it, people are baring their souls, sharing their thoughts (mundane or sublime), explaining their belifes and interests
and supporting others. And this isn’t just one small community or even one country, these networks are letting the entire world do this.
Letting normal people connect and learn, to build tolerance for differances and understanding of the amazing veriety of viewpoints available.

UltimatePartyPanda was posting about Change and how ‘we’ have to be the change, well I think that comming to sites like this and sharing your viewpoint,
your hopes your concerns and dreams is being the change, is being a change for good and for community. Your going to the world with trust and honesty and
saying this is me or this is what i think.

And as i’ve posted about before I’m really excited to see what kind of place the future will be with the generations that are born from that sort of speed of global thought.

I close my eyes and you are there, your form may change with my desire, but you are always there.

Words not needed, we kiss passionately, deeply. I lay you down and kiss your cheeks, your ear, your neck.
and on down to your breasts and further still, I taste your skin feel it’s softness.

Together we take our time letting desire and pleasure build, our bodies rise and fall,
I am lost in little moments and treasures. Your sparkling eyes, your muscles as they tense beneath your skin, our breath
warm and excited.

At last we fall, together into each other, I caress your cheek and we lie entwined sharing our warmth listening to your breath,
your heart.
I open my eyes and you are gone.

The lonelyness and the lust that drove me to your arms will return but for now I have your
memory and treasure it like the times before.

I’m really quite a fan of most Asian Cinema (particularly Japanese Animation) but when it comes to live action I’d like to share my love of Korean films.

The Koreans seem to have a really strange mix of really sad and harsh stories while also finding time for completely silly slapstick. I esspecially like Korean Action films or Sci-fi as these can often be really very styalised and have echos of western films but with an odd Korean view point.

Other really good bits about Korean films are….Korean Hair, If only I had hair half as cool as the Koreans it’s a unique thing that manages to be messy yet stylish at all times.

Korean Slapstick, never seems to be apropriate to the story but often done with a real sense of fun, and usually involves the Comedy relife of the film whos usually the nicest/oddest character.

No ones Safe: In western films you tend to know which characters will and will not die during the story, but not so with the Koreans (or I miss the signs) but so far from the films i’ve seen any and everyone can and will die so it often adds to the tention and realisem.

 

These are four of the Korean films I really enjoyed and intend on enjoying a few more times yet:

Natural City: is a very cool but seriously depressing Sci-Fi story with echoes of Blade Runner. The story seems to be largely about sacrafice and loss and is really quite moving in places, there’s also some very nicely done action involving human looking robots that can move super fast and kick through limbs. Overall it’s a bit grim but certainly worth a watch esspecially if you like tragic heroes. 

The Legend of the Shadowless Sword: This film is brilliant! It’s the Korean Crouching Tiger….well maybe not quite and painfully beautiful as Crouching Tiger but certainly up there in the same league. It’s jam packed with drama and wierd and wild Fantastical sword fights. Again i think there’s a few dark twists in the tale but overall this is a very heroic tale and left me quite moved, I really need to watch it again to refresh my memory but I do remember that the depiction of some of the energy techniques during fight scenes are very well done and really quite unique.

The Host: This is a great film…but not one i’d see twice i don’t think, or if i do watch it again it’ll be after a long while. The main reason for that is it’s just really sad, there are parts that make you laugh and silly parts but I think the ‘point’ of the film is really quite political and airs many of the issues with foreign powers interferaing with Korea, so it’s moving from that respect plus the story it’s self is tragic. But it certainly worth a once through just to see a monster film done properly where there’s just no-one thats safe and your worried about the characters all the way through to the end. Also the graphics are very good.

The Good The Bad and The Weird: And now the very best film from Korea i’ve seen, This film is epic in every way! It’s set in a wildwest version of Manchuria and involves three characters each embodying one of the title virtues, and all of them are pretty much the coolest film characters ever made. This film has lots of over the top wildwest gunfights, crazy stunts, great jokes and slaptick humour and a mad story that offers plenty of twists and turns. As you might be able to tell i really enjoyed this film and will Certainly be re-watching many times. Not only that but i’m going to have an entire wardrobe filled with clothes styled after the clothes in the film, This really is a great film.

 

It took me a while to get the taste for Korean cinema but now that I have I just can’t get enough, they’re funny and inventive and really damn cool. And i seriously hope the Korean Film industry grows and keep producing great stuff.

Okay here it is My very first Vlog. Sounds might be a bit quiet.

I have always had an interest in architecture…not the impressive design side more the appreciation of it and the lines and structure of buildings.

I also have an interest in drawing…but sadly cannot draw well enough yet to draw something demanding perspective and straightness such as buildings. So at the moment I tend to stick to human figures, and it’s due to this that I have begun to really love the Human form.

I don’t just mean appreciating a beautiful person but rather the structural and architectural beauty of a person. As I teach myself to draw I have been spending a lot of time examining legs, arms, faces and bodies and the more I look the more amazing the detail and perfection, initially of course it was the female form that I thought was the best (and largely still do tbh) since Women are so much more sculpted than men.
But as I continued I’ve more and more begun to notice the beauty in all bodies be they fit or flabby, young or old, man or woman.

Especially faces though, faces are fascinating. The lines of jaws, the shapes of eyes, the stories written in wrinkles, the depth of expressions.

Here are a few of the best bits and bobs from bodies that I particularly like….(and for this post I think I’ll stay away from R rated areas lol)

Starting at the bottom…..no not there.

With no intention of admitting to a disturbing fetish (not that there’s anything wrong with that) but I have to say a little bit about Feet.

Feet are a wonderful design, they manage to be perfectly practical yet stunningly elegant, they are sexy yet understated I love em…..unfortunately i can’t draw them to save my life but the foot and particularly that boney bit that is just at the end of the ankle on the outside are one of the wonders of nature in my opinon.

Next Legs and arms. Well i don’t really need to make much of an argument for legs, male or female legs are gorgeous the calf muscle is my favorite though the way it curves out and then back in to form the ankle is just perfect. And arms are much the same the range of motion, the structure of the elbow and the funnel shape of the forearm down to the wrist are all great areas to study in detail. Oh and the should and how the collar bone holds everything together and yet seem so delicate and exposed.

The Back. Such an emotive part of the anatomy I always feel, so many complex muscles and the spine supporting our whole bodies while allowing us to flex, bend and twist. Of particular note would be the shoulder blades which have always facinated me for some reason. As soon as i workout how to draw muscles well enough I could spend days just drawing the back and it’s curves and hidden details.

Chest and this suprisingly is where i reckon us men have the edge, of course Women have certain ‘assets’ in the chest area but I really like the detail of fit muscles…not crazy body builder muscle but someone well toned, and even when your dealing with a stick boy nerd (such as myself) the male body has a facinating triangular shape from the shoulders to the groin. There are some ancient bronze Greek statues that were found at the bottom of a lake and they are in a similar style to the more commonly known Greek sculpture, but the proportions are ever so slightly out of whack in a way that would in fact be anatomically impossible but these alterations were done on purpose to create God like super beings that look to the eye like perfect men, and they are indeed just incredible looking. And it’s those ancient heroic art works and sculptures that i’m always reminded of when it comes to the chest.

And now by far my favorite bit. The hips and waist of a woman, the smooth skin the fantastic lines the symbolic nature of the womb and femininity, the wonderful pear shape from chest to thighs theres just nothing more attractive.

But finally the face, because it’s the most important. Before i started drawing i’d not really taken the time to look at a face in detail and now that i have i can honestly say no matter who or what you are you are beautiful. Each and every mouth and eye, jaw and forehead is intricate on it’s own let alone when they all come together to create a unique and facinating face.

This stunningly realistic DX11 CGI face at first glance could be real, but look for long enough at the tiny missing details and into the eyes and theres something instantly wrong with it, and although i couldn’t acurately put my finger on it whatever it is thats missing highlights to me the real key to whats beautiful, that presence and sense of a ‘person’.

The recent perfect Male/Female body type post got me thinking about all this and really although certain symmetries are pleasing, If you REALLY look at someone and see them in detail you can’t help but find beauty.

I love drawing, if i were to pick a career it would be a Concept artist for either Films or Games.

But there’s a funny thing with my inspiration often I can’t just sit down and draw something without first really getting in the mood for that particular theme.

The only exception for this, rather strangely is if i’m first doing the drawing for someone else (not just for me) and second if i’m drawing my impression of the character of someone online, to be honest it’s better with forum folks, as they often don’t have their faces as an avatar and it’s easier to project a veriety of personas on forums.

But a few Xangans have inspired me and this is where i’ll post the results.

Now there is another thing i should say, although i love it i’m still not that great at certain features of drawing so I apologise for any weird proportions or features but hey i’ll get better

 

First up is the awesome Alex (RoadLessTaken), For me Alex symbolises a Xanga/RL interface so that sort of gave me the idea for the drawing.

I gotta say after having studied some of his photos while (trying to get his face right), I love his hair!

And the second is the lovely Kett (RockstarjuicenStarburst) {gotta love that user name}

Kett is a wonderful writer and general muser…..so that made me think of wizards :S 

One note again while trying to get the face right….shes got an amazing jawline and great cheekbones, I wish i could do them justice.
