Agnetha in the tissue box and introducing...

First off, here is Agnetha in the tissue box.  :)

 And introducing...

  Chocolate Bjorny! I've had him for a long time now but only got a chance to take a picture of him now.  I had found this small fleece hand puppet on the floor, so I decided to give it hair and name it... you know.  Anyway, I hope that the real Bjorn Ulvaeus isn't offended.  :)

Crayons ready, very well, begin to color... me...

  No, no, no!  Do not even dare color me or my new drawings!  :P   I spent this week and last week coloring all of them and trying to find my favorite color pencils in this new box I put my pencils in.  This batch contains the usual, as well as three Doctor Who pictures I did for a friend.  I did my best to appease the Frida fans out there by drawing some Frida pics as well.  ;) Anyway, here they are:

The Doctor

The Doctor

This picture is a smaller version of the big one I have on my wall that I drew a long time ago back in May.  (Run on sentence.)

Agnetha in 1977.  I really like the way this one came out.  ;)

Agnetha in 1980.  I don't like the way the scanner made the bottom of the picture look as if I didn't color it in at all. :P

Agnetha in 1974 at the Melodifestivalen.

Agnetha in 1975

Agnetha looks a bit.... bored.

Agnetha and Frida in 1980. Boy was this hard to color!

You're probably wondering, "Hey, hasn't ABBAFan456 uploaded this picture before?"  Well, as it turns out, when I uploaded this before, I had forgotten to color in Agnetha's eyelashes as well as hers and Bjorn's pupils. :P

Frida during ABBA's small 1980 tour in Japan.  This has to be one of my favorite drawings!  I love the way Frida's makeup and freckle (Yes, Frida has freckles) came out.  :)

Frida in 1974.  Waterloo – jag är besegrad, nu ger jag mig, Waterloo – lova mej nöjet att älska dig.  Waterloo – allting känns rätt, och det är min tro, Waterloo – du är mitt öde, mitt Waterloo.  Wa wa wa wa Waterloo – du är mitt öde, mitt Waterloo...

My first black and white Frida picture.  Came out pretty good, if you ask me.  :)

And finally, Rose Tyler from none other than... Doctor Who. :)

 I really need to start scheduling these again...

Silver ABBA Necklace

  Looks just like the ones that Agnetha and Frida used to wear.  If it wasn't $96, I would probably buy it.  :(

You can buy it at abbasite.com/store

The Beards Ad

  Remember that fictional album I made called "The Beards" about why Bjorn grew in a beard and what B&B were doing at the end of 1982 besides working on Chess?  Well, under the request of a really good friend, I created this silly little Ad.  :)  I think I might upload it to YouTube as well... :P

  Oh yeah, sorry if the part with "He Is Your Brother" doesn't really have Bjorn and Benny's vocals too well.  I just didn't want to show the part with Agnetha's YOU-KNOW-WHAT.  You know I'm against all that stuff.  Also sorry if when the narrator says "Two For The Price Of One" and "Love Isn't Easy" too loud.  I was having a bit of trouble recording the audio from sitepal.  Oh yeah, the album is not actually for sale.  It's ALL FAKE!!!  I hope you weren't getting you're hopes up, because I hate letting you down.

  Sorry that I did this a little too late.  I was baking cookies...  :)

"Dance Your Pain Away" Contest!

  A contest about dancing and lip syncing to Dance Your Pain Away.  I would be too embarrassed to be in it, so you won't be seeing me in there.  Besides, I can't dance.  ;)

  Anyway, read about it here.

A drawing of Rose Tyler I did for a friend.  :)

  I hope you like it! 

Frida 1973 Drawing

  It's finished!  I'm not going to upload it yet, but here's a rather blurry gif I made.  ;)













 Actually, on second thought, maybe I will!  :)

Isn't it pretty?

  It was so hard doing to shirt, but that's alright.  Anyway, more pictures are on the way!  ;)

What's with me and crazy dreams??

Agnetha as a young girl, playing with chickens

Today I had another crazy ABBA-related dream.  It was about me going to six-year-old Agnetha's house.   I called her parents Mr. and Mrs. Jonkoping and had dinner with them.  o.O  Strangely, Steve Perry was the evil gardener. 

The dream totally didn't make sense since I was not around in the 1950s.  :P

More drawings on the way!

  Hi viewers!  I'm currently working on more drawings.  I scanned in this work-in-progress of Frida from the Ring Ring photo shoot.  Of course, I'm also going to have much more than this one picture.  ;)

  I have to say it's coming out pretty good!  I can't wait to get the complete picture done!  Just so you know, I actually am sitting with my computer, a pencil, and this drawing right.  Anyway, I'll get back to drawing and you will have to just sit back and wait.  Stay tuned!  :)

Happy Father's Day!

 Oh yeah, good news!  I think I can upload pictures again to my blog!  ;)

Random pictures...

  Remember this picture?



Ever wondered how I did it?  Well, this is just a picture of when I was taking the pictures back in October, 2012.  ;)

I can't help but say that they look really cute in this picture. ;)

Benny Thursday #15

  Sorry, everybody, but I kind of ran out of ideas for this week, so how about a nice pic of Benny in 1974..? :P

17,000 Views!

  Thanks everyone!  ;)

Dream world, you've been living in a dream world...

  Actually, no,I haven't been living in a dream world, but I did have the craziest dream this morning!

  It was about ABBA the Museum.  My family and I were at the museum and Bjorn was giving a
presentation there.  For some really weird reason, he called me up under the name "Hasta Manana Girl" to help him.  Strangely I was wearing a shirt with "Hasta Manana" on it, so I guess that explains it.  Anyway, I was so excited I ran down to Bjorn, hugged him, and caused the right side of his glasses to fly off and poke his eye. Boy did he become mad.  Right after that event, the lights went out all around the museum and all the exhibits disappeared.  Strange, right?

 I've decided that if and when I go to the museum in real life, I'm going to make sure that Bjorn is not giving a presentation there or else I will freak out.  ;)

Thank you, Gorel Hanser!

  I'm in an extremely excited mood!  Soon, the ABBA members will know who I am!  Yesterday, I emailed Gorel Hanser if she could pass on some of my artwork to the ABBA members.  And guess I found in my email today...

Many thanks. Will forward your nice pictures to the former members of ABBA.

Best wishes,

Gorel Hanser

  Isn't that nice?  Well, now they  know who I am so I don't have to go fantasizing about about going to Sweden and all...  ^_^

  Oh yeah, I'm allowing comments on my blog now.  This is my first time allowing comments, to here are the rules:

 -No foul language or cursing.
 -Nothing inappropriate
 -No mentions about Agnetha's YOU-KNOW-WHAT

I don't think I've ever uploaded this before...

  Like I said in the topic above, I don't think I've ever uploaded this picture before.

  From left to right:  Lucy, Ringo Starr (who is not my doll but a friend's), Agnetha Dollskog, Bjorn Uldollus, Benny Anderdoll, Anni-Frid Dollstad, and Savik (who is also not my doll but made by me!).

Speaking of the Ringo doll, do his feet resemble chicken a bit?  ;)

Father's Day Gifts

  As everyone can see, I have a store on zazzle!  Well, I've been creating products and such, so I decided that it is the perfect time for a gift for your father for father's day!

  I made these two ties, one of Bjorn, the other of Benny!

ABBA Live West Germany Fan Footage

  I love it when fans recorded ABBA's concerts!  :)   It always makes me feel that I was there in the audience watching - which I unfortunately wasn't.  :(

"ABBA's Costumes"

  Do you remember that video I did a while back on ABBA's costumes?  If you didn't, then just search for either Plah Eeta Laroon (The guy who I made talk on the video) or costumes and you should be able to find it.

  Well, here is a research paper I had written about one year ago about the same topic, ABBA's costumes.  :)
