Keeping on trying to make eyes

This would be my third attempt to make a pair of eyes. I'm still trying to figure how to get around the issue with Dwayna in her eye being so small... Perhaps I should tiny the pic back into one large eye instead of two? Or skip the iris and put Dwayna in all of her eyewhite instead...

I'm getting a bit flustered with not being able to make any good realistic eyes...

Hey big spender!

I'm not dead, just been very busy making that video tutorial to the pic I made for a competition. I'm going nuts about finding a video editing program that can help me edit out parts of a video so that I can clip it together with each other. GAH! I'm thinking about skipping the whole visuals thing in video form and just use images instead; it's just that much easier.

Today's been a big spender day. After sitting all night trying to cut out unnecessary parts from a video clip, I went to SIBA and bought an external hard drive and a new microphone. It was a bit of an adventure in itself as I first forgot the money at home (remembered it when I was outside the port) and then the note I was supposed to turn in to the Work-deployment centre, and then it had apparently snowed 15cm since they last shovelled the snow around the houses here, so I had to run through the snow, and of course I missed the bus. I got on a bus that technically would have let me get on the bus I was supposed to take, but I had to turn in that note. I ran through snow again, and missed the bus by one minute. So I took another one leaving nearby. I got there, bought the stuff, everything went fine, then I couldn't find the bus stop because of all the snow (and I'm not used to that area) so I went to the wrong bus stop (the next one in line) and missed the bus again. I got home though, just needed to wait a lot.

And once home, after sleeping some, I had a friend help me look for computer components to my father's old computer, and I pre-ordered them. So now I just have to wait for the motherboard to arrive in the store and I can go buy it all and build a sweetass computer that I can draw on LAG FREE! And play some games on as well, whee! Christmas comes early for me this year!

So now I've been sitting with the video thing and am gonna have a shower before I continue doing the video with images only.

Cheers!
