Some drama usually comes about that completely stresses me out, making my weekends stressful so I have no chance to relax... as if I had time to relax... Weekends are just as busy as the rest of the week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRXgPVc1II/AAAAAAAAAAs/1EHMRoVLLcA/s1600-h/Serene.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ugh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyhoo...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday, via &lt;a href="http://ps238principal.livejournal.com/"&gt;Henchman Publishing&lt;/a&gt; I was introduced to &lt;a href="http://fabricadeherois.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://fabricadeherois.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt; a Portuguese blog with a nice flash program for making heroes, similar to &lt;a href="http://www.heromachine.com/"&gt;HeroMachine&lt;/a&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;Naturally, I couldn't resist making some pics for &lt;a href="http://frankcreed.com/flashpoint.html"&gt;Flashpoint&lt;/a&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;I give you the stars of "Flashpoint: The Animated Series!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRXffVc1EI/AAAAAAAAAAM/mwzQ1I1peZ4/s1600-h/Calamity+Kid.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198376068391425090" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRXffVc1EI/AAAAAAAAAAM/mwzQ1I1peZ4/s320/Calamity+Kid.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Calamity Kid, the young, plucky star of our show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granted, its been a couple of months since I've read Flashpoint, I just basically put the kid together from memory... One of these days I'll have to bug frank about "completely accurate depictions" of the characters... heheh...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRY6vVc1KI/AAAAAAAAAA8/bKpvReZcyQA/s1600-h/e-girl.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198377636054488226" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRY6vVc1KI/AAAAAAAAAA8/bKpvReZcyQA/s320/e-girl.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;e-Girl comes next of course... If CK is plucky, e-girl redefines that term.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know, in an existentialist, digital kind of way...&lt;br /&gt;Yeah...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't ask me about her choice in clothes and makeup... She does half of that stuff just to annoy CK. Kind of retro-mis-matched colorful ... clown chic? Ha! CK would use that line on her. And then she'd probably airbrush peacock feather designs on his hair while he slept...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRak_Vc1LI/AAAAAAAAABE/yj995o76u_s/s1600-h/Legacy.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198379461415589042" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRak_Vc1LI/AAAAAAAAABE/yj995o76u_s/s320/Legacy.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next come's CK's mentor and uncle, currently MIA, Legacy. My regrets on this picture are lack of a whip-long ponytail and more asian-tinted features. But, well, I worked with what I had. Adding a coat to him didn't look right, so I left it out.&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRbS_Vc1MI/AAAAAAAAABM/KviZKPZdsHk/s1600-h/Grandpa.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198380251689571522" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRbS_Vc1MI/AAAAAAAAABM/KviZKPZdsHk/s320/Grandpa.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRXfvVc1FI/AAAAAAAAAAU/CXQtMtHSYuI/s1600-h/e-girl.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRXf_Vc1HI/AAAAAAAAAAk/8CHJbtYMH14/s1600-h/Grandpa.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Leading their motley crew, er.. Muscle Cell, is of course Grandpa... Who, I am afraid to say, came out reminding me of Grand Moff Tarkin:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.firsttvdrama.com/funstuff/tarkin/tarkin.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 94px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 152px" height="218" alt="" src="http://www.firsttvdrama.com/funstuff/tarkin/tarkin.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I digress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hmm, wait a moment... Peter Cushing as Grandpa.... Alert the casting department! Wait, what? Oh yeah, I forgot, he's dead. Oh well. Sorry about that, false alarm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCReY_Vc1QI/AAAAAAAAABs/QBgkEsdluY4/s1600-h/Serene.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198383653303670018" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCReY_Vc1QI/AAAAAAAAABs/QBgkEsdluY4/s320/Serene.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Next comes e-Girl's mentor in the digital domains, Serene.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realized after I had completed this one that I forgot to add the energy corona around her as I did with e-Girl... But ah, well... &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRgbvVc1RI/AAAAAAAAAB0/Q-7y-BI-SdU/s1600-h/Tinker.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198385899571565842" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRgbvVc1RI/AAAAAAAAAB0/Q-7y-BI-SdU/s320/Tinker.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, last but certainly not least, our favorite gruff-but-loveable mechanic and all around tech-savvy guy, Tinker!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRdGfVc1PI/AAAAAAAAABk/0oIc0T7b4SY/s1600-h/Tinker.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish one of the options for hand-held items was a wrench. A really BIG wrench ;-) hehehe...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, anyways, there you have it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Flashpoint: The Animated Series cast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maybe I'll do more later, add some bad guys ;-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/254045708808587525-1232310468053528858?l=miscellaneousmike.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://miscellaneousmike.blogspot.com/feeds/1232310468053528858/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=254045708808587525&amp;postID=1232310468053528858' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/254045708808587525/posts/default/1232310468053528858'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/254045708808587525/posts/default/1232310468053528858'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://miscellaneousmike.blogspot.com/2008/05/im-tired.html' title='I&apos;m Tired'/><author><name>Miscellaneous.Mike</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16063036456214957709</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-WI5D6tJTbw/SCRXffVc1EI/AAAAAAAAAAM/mwzQ1I1peZ4/s72-c/Calamity+Kid.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry></feed>
