Icons!!!

Updating twice a day and writing lots? Go me!! =) This afternoon, after sunbathing in my yard - summer in Brasil! - I've written and polished some of the chapters of this longish H/D I'm working at. I'm delighted it seems to be uncurling from the depths of my mind and stirring into some stretching, at long last. I've been writing its first sketches since April.

Tonight I've gaped in awe at the Depp-Burton partnership. Those two gentlemen always make such wonderful work together. So I picked my favourite film and squealed in anticipation of their piece-to-come!

note to self: MUST finish watching Ed Wood.

(25/out/07)EDIT: because I no longer trust LJ with my material, I've moved the four Edward Scissorhands and four Charlie and the Chocolate Factory icons to IJ.

Are you wondering where I got that nifty font with a tophat like Wonka's? Well, I happened to bypass Tim Burton Collective, a wonderful website. On my quest for Depp pics I also found this marvellous doodle of Burton's, ( representing Ed Scissorhads )

I really can't wait until the film comes out. *squirms* The pics that generated these bases have been shared with the much talented nohumangrace (along with some mildly demented conversation, LOL); maybe we'll be lucky to see icons by her soon? ;)

I'm halfway through One Hundred Years of Solitude; I'm trying to make it a lengthy, leisurely read. It's a magnificent book, I'm in love. I've got one book by Stendhal next on my list, but I really am clueless as to the title in English, sorry. *goes off to sleep*
