My story

Ever since I moved my non-ABBA related stuff to my tumblr blog, I haven't posted many drawings here because most of them are, in fact, not ABBA related.  But I wanted to share a few drawings of my own characters for a story that I've been working on as a side project to The Story of ABBA 2.0, so here they are!  I'm not going to go into too much detail as to who they are and what the story is about, but here are these images for you to enjoy. :D

Colorizing an illustration for my book

Here is a quick 5 min video I managed to film last night of me colorizing an illustration for my book.  Enjoy!

Q&A?

Just out of curiosity, should I do a Q&A post?  I don't know why, but I feel like doing one.  Maybe for my blog's 4 year anniversary?

4 years ago today...

I uploaded my first animation ever to YouTube!  Happy 4 year anniversary to me!  Now, my blog's anniversary isn't until April 1st, but today's my YouTube anniversary!  Yay!!

Original animation:

Stick around for all 5 minutes of this.  I did a thing that I haven't done in so long. ;)

Agnetha drawing

I finally got around to finishing this portrait of Agnetha that I'd started last month and never finished.  :P  The scanner kinda ruined the colors, but I drew this with my new Prismacolor color pencils.  They're so easy to use and I love them soooo much!

ABBA the Official Photo Book + ABBA the Treasures

So far, 2016 has been a pretty bad year for me and my personal life (I'm not going to get into much detail on that), but it's been a pretty great year so far for my ABBA life! :D  First, I got Benny, Frida, and Bjorn's autographs which completed my collection (Thank you Gorel, I will be eternally thankful to you for making this happen!!), second, I got ABBA the Treasures for my birthday (Thanks Dad!), and third, I got a book which I have had my eyes set on ever since I heard it was being released almost two years ago: ABBA the Official Photo Book!

I'd always wanted to get the Official Photo Book, but I could never find it at an affordable enough price for me.  On Ebay people sold it for $100, $50 on Amazon, but I never stopped searching.  Recently, I happened to be searching on Half.com and found the Photobook in perfectly new condition for only $18, shipped!  What a deal that was! :D  So, I bought it and now I have it and I'm super happy with it! ^^
Both books standing next to each other.  :D

One of the best parts of ABBA the Treasures is, besides the amazing story told by Ingmarie Halling, the goodies that come with it!

It even comes with this awesome poster that I now have taped to the wall! (I'm not pinning it because then it might get damaged and I don't want to damage my poster one bit!) 

And all these awesome pictures inside the Photobook!  They're just sooooo amazing!  I will admit, there was one picture which in my opinion wasn't necessary (It wasn't even a picture of the ABBA members!), but overall the book is fabulous!

I am happy to say that my collection looks a lot bigger now! ^^
