An Update

Wed Nov 4, 2009, 11:00 AM
I always find it kind of fun to see work that I did on my PC on my Mac. Often, I won't see what something looks like on my Mac until days later, when I'm on DA with my Mac. It's kind of like a surprise. Usually, not too much of a difference. A lot of recent stuff looks lighter on the Mac. Some day I'll fix all of that calibration. Or not, as I'm looking to get a Mac desktop in the future after I get a sweet job.

Turning in my Senior Paper today. It's on Watchmen and Comics. It's a good paper, I had a lot of fun researching and writing it.

I've been having a lot of fun experimenting with my work. The ODST series is quite fun and adventurous, and the cartoony stuff is always a blast. I'm kind of settling into this rough digital painting style, and the illustrative/cartoony style; I think having two styles is fine, though some might argue otherwise. It's all relative, I suppose.

Graduating soon, then I'll get a graphic design or advertising job, while working on my art on the side. And by a Mac Pro, and run OSX and WINDOWS (7 maybe? My scanner only works with XP, so we'll see). Exciting! Costly, but exciting!

Also, I believe I'm getting the MadCatz wooden replica Fender guitar controller for Xbox this Christmas, which is awesome, as I love (and am really good at) Rock Band. I have a real guitar I should be learning to play, but this beauty is what dreams are made off. Full-sized, to boot.

And to end this journal, I will say that I am totally excited for Ed Edd n' Eddy's Big Picture Show on Cartoon Network this weekend. EEE is by far, my favorite cartoon of all time (as far as cartoons go, not counting other animated shows, you know?) Been looking forward to this movie for a long time. Long live the Eds!

Later, and take care!

Keeping It Cool

Wed Sep 9, 2009, 6:55 PM
Finishing up school this semester.

Working on portfolio work, personal work, and stuff for school.

I'll keep posting work as much as I can, I've been hitting a kind of artistic stride lately.

Always learning.

Thanks to everyone for checking out my work. It's much appreciated, as always.

This and That

Just got done posting a whole bunch of Ninja Turtles pieces I did. Hope everyone enjoys, I had a lot of fun with the project.

Lots more to post, so keep an eye out over the summer.

Seeing Transformers: ROTF tomorrow. I still think they should've called it "Transformers" so it could be abbreviated "T2"...and they even could've went for the complete win by just calling it "Transformers 2: Judgment Day"...zing!

Stay well all!

New

Posted some new stuff, and there's a few pieces left to post, but they're on my PC and I'm currently on my Mac.

Haven't posted anything in a while, so I figured I'd post some work from my winter break. Let me know what you think.

Comments and crits are welcome as always.

Looking forward to 2009.

Also, personal highlight from end of 2008: Made it to number 52 in Rock Band 2 on the guitar leader boards. Currently in the top 200. I'm pretty stoked about it, though I haven't played in a week or two.

Just a Journal...

Sun Aug 3, 2008, 10:55 AM
Been a long time, nothing to really update.

Just working and interning - woohoo!

Working on something with a friend, not sure anyone cares, but it'll be pretty cool. He's a great writer, and hopefully I can make pictures that are as good as his words.

More to come! Hang in there! W00T!

On a side note, I am totally excited for Rock Band 2. September for Xbox 360, later for everything else. I have a 360 so that's all I need to know! Super stoked!!!
