I'm on winter break, Christmas isn't for another week, and I'm stuck at home without much to do. So I downloaded the 30-day trials for Photoshop and Maya and have been fooling around with them. Photoshop moreso than Maya, since Maya controls really clumsily on Macs.

I decided to try to create as many wallpaper-size pieces of Animorphs fan art as I can before heading back to college. Right now I'm going at a rate of one image per day, and I'll see if I can maintain that for a while. Check back frequently.

Niiice papers!
I used to be V, before that I was Tobiasfan21. Then I disappeared for several months after being kidnapped by the Twilight series. Don't make me talk about it, it was horrible. Now, I'm V2113.

I am currently a Heroes fan who enjoys writing more than anything in the world.

Photobucket scales down images over 1 MB, so some of these will be the right dimensions but with lower resolutions. Let me know if you still have size issues.

Yeerk Homeworld (wide)
The Reunion (wide)

And today's:

Book 49, The Diversion: Jake morphs before his family (wide)



The window rolled down. I caught a glimpse
of Jake's mom. Her face, hard and twisted. Her
hand, clenched. A glint of metal.
I spun.
Tssssseeeeeeeeeeeee eeeew!
Dracon fire blasted past. The neighbor's bird-
bath exploded. I reeled. Choked on the stench of
burned feathers. I flapped. The tips of my wings
were singed.
Jake's mom leaned from the car. She turned.
Aimed.
I swept toward the sky. I could see Tom
through the rear window. He reached over the
backseat. Slapped the Dracon beam from his
mother's hand. It bounced across the pavement.
Tssssseeeeeeeeeeeee eeeew!
A black scar ripped across the front of Jake's
house.
It seemed like an omen.

<Prince Jake! We must retreat.> Ax had al-
ready begun to morph. Feathers sprouted from
his blue fur.
One of the SUVs barreled out of a side street.
The Lexus swerved. Jumped the curve. Leveled a
row of mailboxes, then veered back onto the
street. Past Jake's house. Past the drive. Jake's
dad jerked the steering wheel. The car spun.
Gravel sprayed over the neighbor's yard.
<Get out of there, Jake!>
Ax flapped up from the bushes. <Now, Prince
Jake!>
"There's nothing more you can do here," Erek
added.
Jake nodded. The black-and-orange stripes
had already disappeared. The feather pattern of
a peregrine falcon began to etch itself across his
skin.
The car's engine revved. The Lexus lurched
forward.
"Jake, wait!" Erek cried. "I'll project a holo-
gram to hide the morph."
"No. I want them to see this."
In full view of his family, Jake morphed a
peregrine falcon. His body shrank. Arms became
wings. Feet became talons.
<This is for them.> His thought-speak was a
whisper. <For my real family. To give them hope
and, finally, the truth. And for their Yeerk cap-
tors. To give them warning.>
