Happy Father's Day

Hey everyone, happy Father's Day! In celebration I drew that picture of my character and my dad's. 

I also gave him this print I made in my art class at school.

If you have seen my dad's twitter, you probably noticed that his profile picture is Stitch because that is his favorite Disney character. 

Now that it is fully summer I have lots of posts coming up.

Night Garden Maze

The Arcane Bundle's housing plots are really great for building houses with castle blocks- I've built quite a few and I plan on making more.

But with all this great space, I finally had enough room to make this awesome maze I've been planning for a while. 

Not quite

Nope

Perfect!

But wait! This looks familiar!

The maze game is my favorite pet game, so I thought making a housing version of it would be fun. So I drew up a map.

Then I bought a plethora of bushes and got to work. 

The maze game randomly sends you to one of the four entrances of the maze, so I set up some teleporters:

And the end result:

When I was done with my maze I put it on castle tours, and was surprised the next day to find this:

Number twelve on the maze board! Of course now I've climbed up, I think I'm in the sixties at the moment, but it was neat to be so high for a little while. So if you want to check out the maze, look for it on the top mazes while it's still up!

For the First Time in Forever

Happy New Year everyone! To start it off, here's my latest music video featuring my alts, Heather and Esmee, and a song from Frozen:


While I was getting ready to film Esmee went to Amber's Winter Wind Tower through the 'friends' part of Castle Tours, and I noticed there was a little number by the castle. I checked and was astonished to find that I was number 87 on the top decorated board!

So if you'd like to check out the house I filmed that music video in, just go to the top decorated houses and scroll to page 10, as of right now I think I'm number 91 :D.

Castle Tours Highlights-Day One

I've been seriously addicted to castle tours ever since it was released. I've updated and redecorated most of my houses and have some hooked up with teleporters. I'm amazed at what the leader board people do, all the stunning glitching and decoration makes me inspired and slightly jealous. I'm always especially excited when a random castle on the tour is astounding. Sometimes I am going to try to showcase a really great house that I randomly stumbled upon on the tours. Today, an interesting storm house caught my eye.

The exterior featured a nice little garden dotted with statues and many trees.

The front room inside was heavily decorated with a peculiar arrangement of objects from many different worlds. Usually I don't do this because most of my houses are themed to a particular thing and having too much variety looks strange, but this person made it work somehow. They perfectly combined Mooshu and Wizard City styles creating a living room feel with the large table and red sofas. The potted palms also go well with this.

Downstairs had an underwater theme which was perfect. I liked the crab tables with tropical drinks for every seat. And of course any underwater room wouldn't be complete without crab lamps! I love those things.

The shark room was another nice living room area. It had a mannequin playing the piano. Any homeowner who takes the time to craft mannequins should get points for that. The sofa arrangement was good but I think a blue color scheme would have worked better, maybe switch out the snapdragons for bluebonnets, the red sofas for worn blues, and the pink rug for a blue one.

 I like the symmetry of this room with the lamps and paintings on both sides, the Grizzleheim-Avalon combination looks good.

In my storm house, I found this room particularly hard to decorate because of the shape and all the other stuff going on, but this person managed it well with an underwater workshop theme.

Good feasts and kitchens are a nice addition in any house, and this person did a great job stocking them with lots of food! The log cabin wallpaper fits well too.

The last room is a Mooshu themed bedroom that I thought was nice. It has everything a good bedroom needs, a bed, a dresser, and a floating clock!

It Be Shark Week!

Happy Shark Week everybody! If you've never heard the Shark Week song by Marian Call and Patrick Race, this is the perfect day to hear it!

Wizard101 and Pirate101 are celebrating too, and are even giving away free shark mount rentals. On either website just use the code 'teeth' and you'll get a swift shark in Wizard101 and a hammerhead shark in Pirate101. Tomorrow's the last day, so if you haven't gotten you're sharks yet, get them now!

Now for shark doodles :D.

CHOMP CHOMP!

Birdhouse in Your Soul Video

I finally finished the video I've been working on practically all summer! It's another Wizard101-Pirate101 crossover :D. And here it is:


I'm going to The Happiest Place on Earth (Disneyland, not Wizard101) in a few days, so I won't be able to post next week.

The Oracle Part Two- That Blue Thing

If you've been to the Oracle a few times, it may have given you this fortune:

This post is about the story behind that line.

Fans of the band They Might be Giants probably would have gotten this right away, because it's part of a rather memorable series of songs called Fingertips. I made a video where you can listen to the Oracle say the line, then the song plays.

You can find the whole song here.

I happen to know that the person who suggested that saying for the Oracle is Arthur Wethersfield, and that Wizard101 isn't the first game that he worked on that he got the line into.

(Sorry about the quality, it's hard to take pictures of Game Boy screens.)

Ultima Runes of Virtue II was released for the Game Boy in 1994. In the game there is a town that has a secret room under a well. Just inside, there is a sign that reads "Welcome to Origin." In it you can talk to people who worked on the game, and each will say a short line. The character Gnu Gnu says this:

Gnu Gnu is Arthur Wethersfield's alter ego I guess. I think it's funny because the game was made for Game Boys that could only display four shades of green.

And that is what that blue thing is doing here.
