EDIT 3 (friday 22/09/2006, 12:32)
That silly "USB" cartoon I posted the other day, now properly inked and just awaiting some colour, once I get my markers back into circulation.
"Look, even I could have told you that you wouldn't find a USB socket there..."

Anyway, art ideas:
"Who needs wings?" - Azure, wearing jetpack, flying.
"Falling angel" - companion piece to the above, Ivy skydiving (related to a dream I had, but eh, that's not important). (needs a better title too :P)
"Crew" - random piece of two crewmen - probably a Vulline and a DuSkai, sitting on a hillside, to demonstrate crew uniforms.
Edit2: I remembered it/them.
"Universal" - reworking a picture of Ii and her Esu, and trying to carry off the Vei like I actually SEE "her", and "Conflict", with Ii and Kxa, both in Kiravai form, "facing off" as it were.
Also want to do a proper one of Raan (the warlike masculine aspect of Ii), wings mantled, rahi in hand, looking quite suave and stylish.
...And of course I have to do one of Mags, sometime, to keep certain people happy. ;)

Edit: Trying to work out what a hologram "feels like" is a pain. :P Trying to come up with a profile (of a sort) for Magpie, and it's hard to get the details down - you know, the fiddly bits, like "well, if I touched her, would my hand just pass through her, or would there be something there, like a Star Trek hologram?" (Thanks, Steelwing. ;P Filling my brain with... stuff.)

For info, she doesn't feel cold, rough, smooth, warm, nothing. You'd sense a physical SOMETHING, as she often projects forcefields to complete the illusion (ie so moving her manifest affects her surroundings) but nothing defined enough to get a sense of smooth, temperature, whatever.

what a hologram "feels like"
Maybe static electricity?

(You weren't asking for suggestions, were you?)

Well, only partially. ;) It's less of a "static" feel and more of a "opposing magnets" one. :)

force field

I'd think it wouldn't feel like anything, or rather it wouldn't feel like touching anything, more just an increased resistance to movement, like heavy wind, only without the moving air. Maybe that would deflect hair and give a feeling similar to the hair standing on end thing with electrical fields.

Just wandering through, last week I got around to uploading the icon from the pic you drew me and was checking to make sure I spelled your name right.

I'm confused. Given that holograms are shapes created using mirrors, angles, and light, how would they feel like anything at all? Or for that matter, how a hologram would even sense motion through it, at least in a sense other than "the beam of light is blocked, there is an obstruction in section 'b'"

And trying to map a physical projection of space (the force field you speak of) around a non=physical display of light, let alone one that you'd give almost a full range of motion, sounds a bit too complex for most things to pull off...

Hologram = as in the Star Trek sense of the word. :P

Seeing how I never actually paid attention to Star Trek (save for how you reverse the polarity and kill off everyone in a red shirt), this doesn't help me much.
