Oh, wow. One of my favorite songs, and one of my favorite BSG characters. This is a really, really great look at Boomer/Athena. Well done!

Thank you so much! I'm glad that you enjoyed the vid.

Great vid. Makes me feel bad for Boomer, she never got a break.

[butterfly.livejournal.com]

Thank you. And, yeah, she really didn't (and considering that some of the Cylons who directly committed genocide got breaks, it's particularly jarring).

Thank you!

I had a hard time with Boomer's arc so this really packed a punch for me. I don't think I hurt for any BSG character as much as I hurt for Boomer in the end (and that's saying a lot, considering how much hurtin' was free flowing in the finale). Anyway, great job. :)

Thanks.

And (naturally, considering this vid) I agree completely about Boomer. She got such a raw deal.

oh, BOOMER. I was excited to see this posted, because I thought if anyone would do this character justice it would be you. You really captured her for me. Gorgeous and raw.

Thank you! I'm so glad that you liked the vid. Boomer breaks my heart.

Wonderful. :} Loved how you illustrated her story, and the color work felt incredibly intuitive--not to mention making for a gorgeous vid.

Thank you so much! Boomer consistently breaks my heart. I'm glad that all the color work felt right to you. Yay!
