i mean as a fully dedicated lana stan, who actually thinks of lana more as a human than just an artist, i have very high regard for how she feels, etc.. esp since i know she probs goes through such bullshit all the time bc shes a celeb. So im a little salty that eclipse, who already has exclusive info, already gets a ton of attention from people on this site, gets pm'd by lana not even because she wants to talk to him, but because he was leaking stuff and she's looking out for her career. (also this isn't the first time he has taunted artists with their own leaked music lol)
sad that someone who already has gotten so much, gets to talk to the queen herself and then isn't even that nice to her
 
 u should ask all the ppl who just shit their pants over eclipse telling us basically nothing we dont already know. why do they even care?

@eclipse ..   congratulations ! u forced/spooked ur fave to talk to you! hope u feel proud of urself! 

this is a good topic.
 


 
super stoked to see that someone else mentioned françoise hardy. she's a fav of mine.

Some of the posts in this thread are unbelievably immature, disrespectful, insensitive, and unnecessarily egocentric. I am stunned at the disrespect towards Kim, not to mention towards other members as well. I will NOT tolerate behaviour like this on my forum. It's disgusting. This is truly unnacceptable.
I am stunned, truly stunned. & very disappointed.

honestly couldn't think of a better person for the job. you'll do great things with this place.

I haven't really posted in a while, and I don't have a whole lot to share, but I'm going to start getting back into drawing Lana. I have a few things laying around that I just haven't finished, and I have some new ideas too, so I'm gonna try to be more active with this topic!!
 
One of the unfinished things I mentioned is this, which I've made a bit of progress on since the last time I posted it:

I've been slowlyyyy working on it, but most of the time I forget about it. I am going to finish it someday tho.
 
Also a quick little sketch thing:

 
 
This one isn't Lana, but I drew Nicole Dollanganger too cos she's cute and I've recently discovered that her music is fantastic.

(((she reposted the work in progress version of this on her instagram and I diedddd I love her   )))
Anyway, hi again! Gonna be posting in here more often. Thanks again for all the kindness.

THE CULPRIT 

It's been a lil while since I've posted anything here!
Here's a new work in progress:

 
and this one isn't Lana, but it's Lanaboards related!! 

@@Elle is gorgeous and the best ever, and she doesn't mind if I draw her. Thanks bae.

woah this is amazing   more fans

*loud excited screaming*

I'd die if she covered There Is a Light That Never Goes Out by The Smiths, Lovesong by The Cure, Unravel by Björk, and I agree SO HARD with whomever suggested Winter Now by Broadcast earlier on this page. Also, not sure if she'd ever be down to do a French song, but she could absolutely kill Voilà by Françoise Hardy.

Finished this last night during a skype call with my boi @@analwinterofmylife
Gonna maybe tweak the flowers a little/a lot. I'm not super happy with them. Overall, this one was really fun, though!! It was a strange and challenging angle to make sense of. I'm so used to drawing people straight-on, or from a slight angle, so this was super useful practice. 

I've officially taken my Lana obsession to the next level lol.
I've tracked down some pretty memorable outfits Lana has worn - the dress worn in the Ride video (as well as a few other appearances) and the shirt and skirt worn in the Born to Die cover shoot thanks to some posts in this thread.
The Ride dress and the shirt worn in the BTD shoot were relatively easy to find. I only found one of the BTD skirt, but I was lucky that it fit even though I was worried it might be too big. They were all for a great price too - I paid a little over $10 for the skirt & about same for the dress, but they were both out of the country, so shipping ended up costing more than the items themselves. I found the shirt for $20.
My photographer friend is going to do a shoot with me in a few days dressed in my BTD outfit, but I had a friend take some quick photos of me in the Ride dress with a flag so I can channel my inner Lana lol.

You guys are always so nice!! Thanks so much for all the feedback.
I started another one because I'm absolutely in love with the original photo.

 
Long way to go, but I'm excited to finish it!!
 
In other news, the amazing, incredible annedauphine (sorry i don't know how to tag u) has agreed to bring the space drawing (the one in my avatar) with her to give to Lana when she meets her on Friday! I'm so beyond excited/nervous/terrified, and forever grateful that she'd be willing to do that for someone she hardly knows. I called the post office and asked if it would be possible to send something from the US to the UK by the 17th, and they were very willing to work with me on it, so hopefully it gets there in time for Friday. Shipping was mad expensive, but it's so worth it.
 
I do kinda wonder, though: Honestly, do you guys think Lana will be weirded out by that particular drawing?
 
I'm a little worried that she'll interpret the shattered chest in a negative way, but that isn't how it's intended at all. I'm the queen of overthinking everything, so my mind is all over the place. I never thought it would be a real, tangible possibility to be able to give her one of my drawings, so this is wild for me.
 

!!! Aaaaaaa thank you so much! You are soooo kind and wonderful!!   (Plus if I'm not mistaken I've reblogged a couple of cocorosie things from you before-- You're extra rad for liking cocorosie!!!)
It's all Prismacolor colored pencil except for the stars, which I dotted on with a white paint pen and a toothpick!
EDIT: I forgot to mention that it takes up most of a 9 x 12 inch sketchbook page!

Finally finished.      This took such a long time. Most of my time was spent being terrified to start the background.
I'd love to be able to give this to Lana. Even if it's weird as fuck to give someone a naked-in-space drawing of themselves.
