Courtesy of wank_report....
The not quite so triumphant return of Victoria Bitter.

In which we discover that VB is the writer of a very popular HP fanfic, and *GASP* is planning a con for fans of said fic to get together. By con, I mean "convention" and not "swindle" although, who knows, it could be one and the same again.

Did you know that VB, in his/her* new fandom persona, has "fought with three different paramilitias", "never thought about an ideal job outside of the military", "has a heart condition that gives me less than ten years to live", and is super chivalrous: "Even after coming nearer than I ever have to being destroyed by a woman I loved for almost seven long years, even after she took my son from me without so much as a goodbye and left me destitute for someone she'd been seeing behind my back, I still hold no grudge against womankind."

All these fun facts and more to be had here. Deleted, but screencapped here, and html here.


(Look, I know there's no wank yet, but it's VB and Turimel, so let's take a nice stroll down memory lane.)


*am not sure if VB is actually trans or if IDing as male is part of the scam, so covering my bases here. ETA, again: Okay, folks, I've been away the whole day, and I've got back to an exploding inbox, and I haven't had the chance to go through the whole thing, but I wanted to address this issue.

I was trying to err on the side of caution in regards to past actions, but doesn't matter if I'm unsure or not, using female pronouns or referring to VB/thanfiction as "s/he" "it" or "s/h/it" is disrespectful and hurtful to other transfolk, and I apologize for this. I'm sorry that my choice of pronouns has cause people distress.

So please stick to the male pronouns. Regardless of if this is VB's identity or just another grift, it stands less of a chance of hurting people if you use the male pronouns.

Also, anons, tread carefully. I turned anon commenting on so everyone could play, so let's not ruin it, okay?




ETA, ONCE AGAIN: Anon commenting is off. And please read this. Thank you, [info]white_serpent.

Male pronouns, please. No more transfail, thanks.





ETA: Oh boo, beat to the punch. Sorry, folks.

ETA #2: Other post deleted! Have fun here. Also, anon commenting is ON, since there was an anon at wank_report who seemed to have more details on this.

ETA: #3: More links, from the comments (thank you, lovely wankas!):

I love his DA page. I'm flipping through all the pictures and playing Guess the Celebrity/Find the Painted Over Source Picture.

I'm not very good at it, though. I've only found the Ashley Greene and Emmy Rossum ones. I was sure this one was Adrien Brody, but I can't find the original. That is Brody, isn't it? I thought it was because of his hand-to-mouthness especially (as well as the fact that it freaking LOOKS LIKE HIM), but maybe not.

I especially like how a user says they want the skirt in the Emmy one and he says he doesn't know where they can find it...the second link lists exactly what brand it is and how much it costs! Too bad we can't troll the wank because I'd at least let them know that much...(it's $420!!!! and looks like my tennis skirt from high school!)

I'm pretty sure this is this picture of ScarJo, but I can't get it to match up perfectly. There's another ScarJo picture on there I was trying to match, but she has so many head-tilt-smile! pictures it was freaking impossible.

I can't get over the explanation he's written under his "painting" of ScarJo/Hannah:

"In the snap of a spell, Hannah sees her life pass before your eyes, even if it's only seventeen years."

That Adrien Brody is from either a promotional picture or a magazine photo from his King Kong days.

The things playing Jack Driscoll in Milliways Bar will make you remember.

I am pretty sure that this one is Helen Mirren but I cannot find the original (I really don't recommend looking for it if you are at work).

You should also check out his lj community thanart.

My Photoshop teacher said, "I don't know why would anyone want to use Dissolve, it's not really good for anything and looks bad." Well, now that I see that Alice trace, I guess now I know a use for Dissolve. Though my teacher's right, it looks bad and isn't even good for convincing sparkles.

And dude, it's totally Adrien Brody as Anthony Goldstein. YMMV, but as much as I love Adrien Brody (that nose omfg &hearts), Anthony never struck me as looking much like him. Not that there's any description of Anthony, but I figured he'd be... you know, more geeky-looking and pasty white, less like the hot Pod Person version of the young Severus Snape.

His art is blatantly copied and run through filters, but man, even if it weren't it'd be hideous. But I went all the way back in his dA page, and I actually think his early stuff wasn't traced, and that this one is even pretty good and shows promise in composition and pencil work! I guess (like a lot of plagiarists) he got impatient with developing his own skills. Shame.

I also found that Dennis Creevey is Thomas Sangster, aka that adorable little kid from Love, Actually, and this is the source picture for this one of Matthew Gray Gubler. Oh, and here's where the Luna one came from, and someone already pointed out that this NSFW Ginny pic is from this also NSFW Carrie Prejean pic. Explains why the boob is so weird.

The one I'm desperately trying to find is this one because I swear to god I've seen it like a kajillion times and I can't place who the hell it is. You can tell it's from someone showing off the back of their dress at some awards show, but who? I also can't figure out who Colin is supposed to be, though he looks so so familiar. I wanted to say Alex Pettyfer, but it might not be.

I couldn't find an exact matching picture, but I'm 97% sure Neville here is...uh...played by Luke Wilson.

Particularly given the dark strokes changing the jaw line.

Congratulations on finding a time-vortex game that equals TV Tropes.

Oh, hello Jensen Ackles, or should I call you Terry Boot? Like someone among the legions of SPN fans wasn't going to notice that? Jensen's been rendered a million times in fanart that wasn't traced, and never has it been so exact (except for the freaky blue eyes--SPN fangirls might attack for crimes against the emerald-jade-moss-namerandomgreenthing orbs alone).
