Sort of like Draw or Die, but without the competition. Every couple weeks there's a theme and anyone who wants can post drawings for the theme.

I use the tablet to sketch the basic shape, then I use my touchpad to do the lineart.. my tablet is really shaky so I can't get good lines in paint with it. Hence, lines take FOREVER.

Wow. That makes your pictures even more impressive. I absolutely cannot draw with a mouse, let alone a touchpad.

sample mouse drawing from last year:
(it's a guy being choked by an invisible enemy while his bear bodyguard is completely oblivious)

Also no idea about drawing sites.

Why make you hate Snow through all 3 books, then try to force you to like him at the end?

I didn't feel the book was trying to force the reader to like Snow. At least, not in the way you're suggesting. He was still 100% evil manipulative bastard to the end. Granted, he was my favorite character in book 3, but that's just because I like evil manipulative bastards. >_>

I liked her a lot in book 1. She was resolute, capable, highly resourceful, had a clear focus and purpose. Her paranoia about Peeta before the start of the Games was cute. The love scenes with Peeta were (intentionally) painful and awkward, but I didn't mind them too much because I knew she knew it was all a farce for the cameras.

But when the Games end, when she doesn't have a clear goal set out for her, she descends into dithering --the love triangle stuff being the worst of it, but not all of it. Book 2 is what ruined her IMO. At least in book 3 she gets to shoot Coin, which was a great scene and easily the highlight of the book.

Drak, only Gale was in favor of blocking all the passages. That was his instincts as a tactics-first person. Nobody supported him on that notion, and even Katniss who inwardly agreed countered him because it seemed too much like a mining accident. The leader there decided to call it in to Command to let them decide, and they chose to leave the tunnel unblo9cked. The only thing that this incident proved to me is that Gale is willing to do Whatever It Takes, while the rest of the rebellion still wants to preserve some level of humanity.

Fair enough on that incident, then.

Gale had also given up on Katniss before that point. There's a scene before the party splits up where he says to Peeta something about "that's the only thing I had going for me." I don't remember what that was in reference to, but it was something that no longer applied.

Pretty sure that scene occurs after Prim's death, when Kat is suspecting Gale of helping produce the bombs that killed her. Gale's full statement is something like "I protected your family. That's the only thing I had going for me."

I hadn't had a great deal of time to think about the rebels' actions all that much. However, other than the scene where they bombed the children, what have the rebels really done that was so awful? They don't "entomb" the district 2 workers -- they leave them a path out. The last and final Hunger Games was clearly the brainchild of Coin and Plutarch, (and I'm surprised we get no comment about those games from Katniss later or any guilt from her in voting for them,) so I don't know that it even ever actually happens.

Bombing the children is the biggest thing, yeah. Also IIRC they only leave the district 2 workers a path out because Kat pushes strongly for it.

Re: Kat voting for the Hunger Games: I thought it was a piece of showmanship on her part. People hear Coin announce new Hunger Games. People see Kat shooting Coin. Since the actual vote is kept secret, they assume that she voted in opposition and, when she was outvoted, shot Coin instead in protest. Basically her way of driving the message home in a more powerful way than simply voting no.

I dunno. Maybe I'm giving her too much credit.

The only thing that strikes me as odd is that Gale never (knowledgeably) comes to visit Katniss once.

Yeah, Gale's exit is another thing that strikes me as "too easy" in the ending. It's very convenient that he may or may not have indirectly contributed to Prim's death and then gracefully exits the stage so that Kat/Peeta is the only possibility left.

I strongly disliked the ending, but for the opposite reason as you -- I thought it was far too optimistic.

The biggest issue I had was the implication that Coin is the only "bad" person among the rebel leadership, so that killing Coin solves everything. Until Coin's death, the book has been urging the point that the rebels are little better than the Capitol they are fighting: they entomb the workers of District 2, they kill Capitol children, they want to initiate a new Hunger Games. But then Kat kills Coin, and (after a brief interlude) all of that is swept under the rug. Suddenly Kat gets to go home and live out her life peacefully with Peeta. District 12 is being rebuilt. Poverty and starvation are apparently gone.

It feels to me as if the author couldn't decide whether she wanted a powerful ending (Kat escaped being a pawn in the schemes of one empire only to wind up the pawn of another) or a happy one (Kat x Peeta otp!), so she tried to go for both, and the result is a mess.
