I Found The Flicking Pattern I've Been Trying To Recreate For 2 Months.

Propaganda

Carmen Sevilla (La fierecilla domada/La mégère apprivoisée, La Venganza, King of Kings)— One of the few spanish actresses to really make it in Hollywood. She worked opposite Charlton Heston in the 1970s and reportedly slapped him but that is past the cut-off so you can look it up for yourselves. There's also rumors that Frank Sinatra had a bit of a crush on her and asked her out a couple of times but she rejected him. The woman was just messy as hell in general and an absolute icon. Bless.

Simone Simon (Cat People, La Bête Humaine, The Devil and Daniel Webster, The Curse of the Cat People)— If she turned in to a panther and ate me I would be fine with that

This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

nothing lasts, really.

CLASSIC HORROR HEROINES SIMONE SIMON as Irena Dubrovna CAT PEOPLE (1942) dir. Jacques Tourneur I like the dark. It's friendly.

so so so so cute

one of simone simon's best remembered movies is cat people, one of jacques tourneur's great b-horror movies that's secretly a sensitive and tender examination of otherness, seriously i cry every time i watch it a short excerpt from cat people

She’s maybe not super well known to a lot of people but holy hell is she a stunner. I literally have her Cat People poster on my wall - she is amazing in that film, playing this tragic character (please go watch Cat People it’s this amazing tragic story of a foreign woman being caught up in a toxic relationship with a man who doesn’t believe her, plus cats). She’s so beautiful!! Look at her!!

This morning, I want to work on my project, but I also do not want to leave my nice warm bed and more importantly, I do not want to spill seed beads in my sheets again

As an update, I figure how do this lung without math!

I am going to make a mockup with the heavier thread I use with kumihimo.

And since I am now the pround owner of half a kilo of wisteria lined crystal, that's the color I'm uses. I used a grayish mauve and a bronze as a pattern so I can easily eye out 5, 10, 15, and twenty bead lengths.

I cal also take the raw materials and make turn then into necklaces with kumihimo

So the two hours of bead spinning was really for good use and my chose to drape instead of using math is compleatly normal

First I love being on my ADHD meds

Second, fuck the FDA and the state I live in fir making all ADHD drugs so hard to get. I do relize that they can be abused by nuritypicals ....but there has got to be a better solution then this.

Anyways on to better news.

My medicated ass.had an idea this moring....for the 7th,

I was always going to do a big drape lacy flowery daisy chain neckas for the 7th, but I just realized that instead of a simple.drape pattern I could use chain to make lungs

Here is my breif concept drawing....

The large rings in the drawing are the large hammered silver(plated) rings. The black lines forming the lungs will be out of the silver and green modified daisy chain.

The dotted lines will be out of fine silver chain. I'll have to purchase that

Here is the rough draft for the back and sides all out of silver chain. I don't think I will be able to get the efect of inflated lungs unless I create a secondary anchor chain around the back like a harness.

So now I need to plot out the mesuments for the lungs.....

These lovely pictures give me an approximate location and a size ratio I can measure on myself.

I may have to lie down on the floor and have my sister use a heavy cord to map put the shape....or better yet I could do that on her.

The other option is to use all those years of math to map out the archs I want on the images I found, to get actual measurements

Jeasus christ.....I just realized I'm trying to reinvent hanahaki

Oh well....I like it, it's going g to be so much work.

And not at all I my colors....

I'm so excited

The Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews is urban fantasy romance crack.

I said I should reread the series before the new book comes out at the end of August. Instead, I read all five since Monday and am disappointed the next one isn't out yet.

Apparently I just want to read stories about ruthless, competent women who want to save the world, and the partners who are really into that.

Christopher Eccleston would be so good as Sam Vimes it’s not even funny.
