Land ahoy

Spent some five days surrounded by water and friends before midsummer, recharged my batteries really nicely. Fed most of myself to the mosquitos there, some damn angry little things they were, but man, it's really good to get near the nature sometimes. With a little help from occasional gaming; we had all kinds of consoles there too. Yeah, I/we strongly believe that nature and technology can coexist. The midsummer itself went peacefully in my biological home, and I bumped into some really nice people during my short stay in Jyväskylä too. Yee-haw.


HIDDEN MOVEMENT. In your shower!

I've been drawing Sectoid/human mutants (spliced human and Sectoid DNA and whatever, with Sectoidish black eyes who were supposed to, plotwise, act as an alien infiltration unit during the first X-COM, but are recruitable in Apocalypse) as a result of playing X-COM: Apocalypse, but since my scanner is long since dead and I haven't acquired any replacement, I can't upload the pencil-stuff here.

So you'll get that digi-thing^, a bit lighter approach to the alien invasion. She's the Credit to the Team, miss Jane "Cockfag" Parker from X-COM: Apocalypse, with Heavy plasma, Personal armor and dead Chryssalid from X-COM: Enemy unknown (Ufo defense). Don't ask about the nickname, these things just happen while you play.

They do! I'm sorry!


Yes, back at the island, we gave a decent burial for our brother in arms, Lettuce. He fought bravely from the mainland to the island, only to be killed by the enemy while we were making salad.
Oh sweet and brave Lettuce, how me miss you. May your battles be glorious and victories countless during your stay in Valhalla.

So green and...lettuce'ish.
