monsters

2010-07-18T00:19:00.000-07:00

monsters come in many shapes and forms and most of the time, they appear when you least expect it. i sure didn't expect us to update this soon, but that doesn't make us monstrous, it makes us lame. monsters on the other hand aren't lame, they're awesome.

enjoy!

tack för senast

2010-06-06T16:21:00.000-07:00

This is based upon a swedish expression which is roughly translated as such: "Thank you for the last time."

It's usually quite awkward when someone says this and it's obvious that people are just trying to be nice,

but it's nice to be nice, or is it?

"thank you for the last time (and sorry for egging your car and stealing your jacket)" by linnea:

verklighetens folk

2010-03-30T18:56:00.000-07:00

this weeks theme is "verklighetens folk" (reality people).

for an explanation, see the post below!

råvara by oskar:

i have a kitchen table and realistic art, therefore i exist by linnéa:

coming up!

2010-03-22T16:11:00.000-07:00

our upcoming theme is "verklighetens folk" ("reality people").

for those of you who are not familiar with this term, it was invented by the christian

democratic party leader göran hägglund. basically, hägglund believes that there is a

swedish cultural elite that is looking down on the "normal swedes" a.k.a. the "reality people".

but who are these "reality people"? what makes you real? am i unreal? this term is so stupid

(and fun!).

/neon tights, real people(?)

taboo

2010-03-17T07:08:00.000-07:00

also, we are happy to announce that our friend christopher has made a drawing for us this week.

2009-12-24T13:23:00.001-08:00

we couldn't find any translations for "julbord" other than the silly "christmas smorgasbord",

but hopefully you get the point anyway. this weeks theme is about the traditional swedish

food around christmas. MERRY X-MAS TO YOU ALL!!!

2009-12-17T11:39:00.000-08:00

this weeks theme is a tribute to dante and his inferno. hell is always pictured as chaotic,
but dante keeps it super-organized, almost bureaucratic. thats why we like it so much!

this week we have illustrated our childhood pets and how they eventually died. R.I.P. dear pets!
also, we are happy to have a drawing by our lovely friend hanna for this weeks theme.

hanna's poor rat "zipper" died during a trailer trip on a hot summer's day, and was buried in a trash can:

linnéa's little chicken got mashed under the wheels of a volvo kombi:

oskar's brother josef's budgie "sigge" got jammed in the door by mistake:

we have been cheating with our weekly updates, but from now on we promise to try harder!
this weeks theme is all about our tv series crushes.

tamagotchi

2009-08-04T15:18:00.000-07:00

this week we have chosen to honor our earliest memory of anxiety: the needy tamagotchi. no matter how much love and care you put into that tamagotchi, it just wouldn't stop dying.
enjoy! and click the pics for details.

todays least cute...

2009-07-04T17:35:00.000-07:00

as a counter reaction to all of internets adorable kitten and baby bunny pictures, every bit of cuteness has been removed from this weeks neon tights theme. remember, cuteness is not all! even the least cute person in history - the elephant man - was loved. by us.

monkeys stole our clothes

2009-06-20T04:27:00.000-07:00

the neon tights are cursed! two of our members have left for paris, and we, the remaining two, are depressed from either working too much or working too little. on top of it all, a group of monkeys came and stole our favourite clothes. just look at them!

life sign

2009-06-11T14:17:00.000-07:00

we are not sure whether it's because we are depressed, paralyzed or just busy, but the blog doesn't seem very updated. however, we will soon rise from the dead, just like these dinosaurs:

this week we managed to create a dysfunctional family. if the neon tights would have baby twins, this is what they would look like:

copycat

2009-05-28T10:46:00.000-07:00

this weeks theme is about people who wish that they were something else. many of us have probably dreamt of being like that cool guitarist from the band, or like the pretty girl on the catwalk. however, we took this dream to another level. we don't dream of being living things; we dream of being objects.

linda "i want to be a dirty bed sheet"

linnéa "i want to be a fox trap"

oskar "i want to be a chair"

bitch

2009-05-23T10:43:00.000-07:00

this week we give you three different kinds of bitchiness; dragking dandy-bitchiness, six annoying babies screaming on the bus-bitchiness (which is a true story!) and schizophrenic ghettogirl-bitchiness. click the pics for details!

2009-05-23T08:08:00.000-07:00

LIVE UPDATE!!!!!: we are having a blogmeeting and drawing session. our next theme will be published later tonight!

complex

2009-05-13T05:06:00.000-07:00

this weeks theme is very personal. we have drawn the things that we don't like about ourselves.
linnéa does not like the fact that she rolls her eyes way too high when she's irritated, since this makes her look like the girl from "the exorcist". oskar's problem is that he always gets interrupted when he is about to say something. he opens his mouth, but he never seems to get to the point where a word actually comes out. we hope you will enjoy what we hate about ourselves!

hello from linda, linnéa and oskar! our next theme is on its way!

hybrid animal disco

2009-05-05T08:10:00.000-07:00

since we've all been drowning in schoolwork during the past two weeks, we decided that we needed a theme that could cheer us up. naturally, the first things that popped into our minds were hybrid animals and disco. so here they are; the bearaboon, the dinohorse and the famous skvader!

shoegaze

2009-04-30T09:15:00.001-07:00

this week we wanted to show our love for the music genre "shoegaze".
for those of you who are not familiar with shoegazing, this could also be a tribute to shoes in general. or perhaps even the concept of gazing at your shoes, which is something that we like to do a lot!

ötzi

2009-04-22T11:44:00.000-07:00

this week we have chosen to honor our all time favourite ice man - ötzi.
haven't you ever wondered how it would have been, hanging out with ötzi? if he was a cool guy? and what was he doing up there in the mountains, anyway?
we certainly have wondered, and now we wanted some answers.
this is the modern ötzi:

"ötzi the fashion blogger" by isabelle

"ötzi, known from commercials" by linda

"ötzi the dancing queen" by oskar

"ötzi, easy to relate to" by linnéa

rejection

2009-04-14T14:46:00.000-07:00

this weeks theme is rejection. most of us have probably felt rejected sometime, though hopefully not as rejected as max fischer (from "rushmore"). however, some people just won't get it. no matter how much they get rejected, they just won't give up. in a bad way.
our drawings this week illustrate these two different types of rejection.

drunk drawing

2009-04-07T09:35:00.000-07:00

this weeks theme is drunk drawing. so, here's a drawing (painting) that we drew after a few bottles of wine.
for some reason we let the music of rammstein inspire us, together with tacky swedish culture and functionalistic architecture.

the sims

2009-03-18T14:49:00.000-07:00

this weeks theme is a tribute to "the sims", a game that we (like many others) were once very fond of. honestly, we were so obsessed that we spoke "simlish" (the language spoken by the sims) with our classmates.
ah fweegah fwaa, degg degg! (this is fun, bye bye!)

everyday burdens

2009-03-06T09:10:00.000-08:00

our second theme is "everyday burdens". these everyday burdens come in shape of decision agony, dishwashers, tv and anxiety clouds, eating falun-sausage and crying and accidently sneak peeking on two persons having intimate contact. click for bigger!

naivism

2009-02-04T13:48:00.000-08:00
