"Very nice! The shading is very good. Rory is probably my most favorite character ever in the history of Doctor Who. I tried to draw Rory the other day... and I epicly, epicly failed. But the reason was partly because I tried using color pencils, and…"

Bill Nighy

Not to be confused with Bill Nye. Bill Nighy's famous roles: Davy Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean; Rufus Scrimgeour, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; Dr. Black, Doctor Who, Vincent and the Doctor. That's just three. ANYWHO, I'm not sure how…

My, my, this is VERY old...

This was my third-ever portrait; I drew it months and months ago. IT IS MICHAEL PITT, NOT KURT COBAIN. I drew it to give to my sister's friend, who is flat-out obsessed with Mr. Pitt. Not sure how long it took.Considering this was my third-ever…

Rory Williams

Everyone's favorite nurse ^_^This one took 54 minutes, and I'm actually really proud of it. The shading came out really well. Done, as always, in plain graphite. If you like it and would like to request someone, feel free. Or just leave a comment…

Beatrix Kiddo

Best. Movie. Ever. Quentin Tarantino is a goddamn genius. Forgot to time myself, sorry, so I'm not sure how long this took to draw, but probably about half an hour because it's not her entire face. Blood flecks are colored pencil and Sharpie. You…

Profile Information

What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?
the artsy-fartsy kind.
About Me:
Name: Nora
Age: 14
Hobbies: drawing, sewing, having Doctor Who marathons.
Clubs/Groups: Middle school band, stage band
Things you should know:
I'm short. I'm one effing quarter of an inch under five feet.
Pro-choice, atheist, favorite subject is English.
I'M A GRAMMAR NAZI. Sometimes. Usually just to annoy people.

DO NOT EVER ACCUSE ME OF TRACING MY DRAWINGS. My artistic and musical expressions are the only things I take real pride in, as they're the only things I'm like, REALLY good at. If you DO accuse me of tracing or cheating somehow, and not putting effort into what I do, I will personally hunt you down and carve "decepticon" into your arm with a rusty nail. <3

I play violin and ukulele. Violin for 8 years, ukulele for a couple months.
Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more
Shtuff I like:
Kill Bill (volumes 1&2), Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Artemis Fowl, Eragon and the Inheritance series, Hunger Games, Death Note, Of Mice and Men, Lord of the Flies, Stephen King, Matt Smith, Douglas Booth, Bones, House, Bleach (the anime and manga), Fullmetal Alchemist, classic 80's movies, Weezer, Sublime, Sons of Admirals, Modest Mouse, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Beatles, Phoenix (the band, but also the animal), etc, etc, etc. I used to be obsessed with manga/anime, but I've kind of grown out of it for the most part. I still read a few series(s).
I've been meaning to ask; For anyone who reads Hetalia, would you recommend it? I kind of want to see what all the fuss is about, but not if it means spending money on something I won't like.
What's your favorite thing to put on your head?
a fez
If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?
MATT FREAKING SMITH
When did you start watching the Vlogbrothers?

TYPO FOUND IN WILL GRAYSON, WILL GRAYSON!

I noticed it a while ago. Perhaps you have too. JOHN, it's in one of YOUR chapters! Oh, the shame you must be experiencing...

ANYway...

Go to the first page of chapter 19. At the bottom of the page, there is a sentence. Whoa. It reads:

"I walk into the mostly empty auditorium--curtain time is still more than an hour away--and I'm met by Gary, who's hair is dyed lighter, and chopped short and messy like mine."

 

Read that over a handful of times. You'll find…

April Break, Stupid Assignments, and Strawberry Hill.

1)  My April break really consisted of me sitting on my ass and watching 43 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist on Netflix instant play. All my (3) friends were busy, and I was too lazy to call them to figure out a plan. I did venture outside a couple times, but they were mostly to walk the dog and visit my grampa in the hospital. I did buy new nerdy glasses frames, and they should be ready in a week. But yeah; I actually did SO MUCH NOTHING that I'm surprised I haven't developed a…

The ever-growing list of Things to Hate (101-120)

101 to 120? Is that even right? Yep, and still going strong. I don't think I'm even halfway yet. Enjoy, eh?

 

101. The color yellow. I actually can't stand it.

 

102.  Ignorance (coughcough). Believe me when I tell you that this is immensely hilarious coming from someone like me.

 

103. Science Fair/History day/any type of school project with "National" in the title.

 

104. Reading logs. They're these awful things for English class…

Musician nerdfighters, feel free to laugh at my brain fart.

If you've been stalking me, which I hope you haven't, you'll know that I play the violin, and have for about eight years. I like to think that I'm halfway decent by now, having played for more than half my life.

I've recently started to learn the ukulele. I don't take lessons or anything, I just bought a method book. In the back of the book is a list, with tabs, of all the chords you'll ever need. While browsing through these chords, I noticed that nowhere mentioned was a B sharp/C…

1.) Comparing his running to a drunk giraffe is an amazing simile! Made me laugh a copious amount.

2.) No, it is not something people would normally be attracted to...

3.) Hence, NERDFIGHTERS ARE NOT NORMAL PEOPLE, they are awesome people. :)

There is an old operating theatre in London where you can go to and look around. Seriously cool! :) There is the area in it where you can find the jars with the organs in, operating tools and herbs that were used during the operations. There is also the operating threatre itself where there is a talk about how they did the operations.If you're ever in London, I highly recommend you go and see it :D

Yeah... You see.... There's a very good reason to why I didn't get you anything that costs....

 

I'm too cheap.
