I went through a few names a while back but Lata is the one I've settled on, since it means "creeping vine".
In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.

While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

I've been staring at this picture for days now and I still can't think of who he is.  :(  He looks familiar, though; there's something very Farnsworth-ish about his head.

Agreed.  Who is that guy?  Cubert 70 years into the future?

Before I use it and lose my cool
And if I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool
And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

I got it immediately.  :) (Even without looking at the filename.)

I like this a lot, particularly the contrast between the two, and his underwear. Great hair! His feet on the right picture might look a bit sketchy, but I don't really know these things. Just in general, I'm impressed.

I rode past destruction in the ditches,
With the stitches still mending

And treacherous young witches
Were handing out the flowers

Just for the record, it's from a universe where everyone is the opposite sex. :) Fun!

I'm going to try and cram as many into that one as possible, within the demands of the plot. :)

I do like the pink plant with the... things. The shading on Leela's looking good, particularly around her right hand. Keep making sure there's enough contrast in the shadows to make things look 3d and so forth.

It still seems odd to me that some parts are very detailed while there's still blank canvas, but I can't really point fingers. Best of luck continuing to be painterly.

David, I am unsure what to make of your email. Do you have pets in the apartment or not?

Dear Helen,
No. I have a goldfish but due to the air conditioner in my apartment being stuck on a constant two degrees celsius, the water in its bowl is iced over and he has not moved for a while so I do not think he is capable of disturbing the neighbours. The ducks in the bathroom are not mine.

Eh, I gave up and went back to working on multiple layers. The background will get filled in when it needs to be. :)
