wow, its been 1 year and 3 hours since my last art dump. gay.
quick life rundown:
I survived my first game industry crunch. These consist of meeting milestones by working 12-14 hour days for a week right before the deadline arrives. They feed you dinner and alcohol every day, but its still an endurance test. I'm also doing serious design work now. like last week I designed 5 of the 9 weapons for the game. monday I designed a power where you rip guys in half with your mind. Today I designed zombies/clones. As you can see, our game has everything.
I got my first real paycheck. My life got way less complicated when I opened that envelope. no more choosing between food or gas. Im pretty happy.
girls? ummm...eh. it gets easier and easier to NOT text chris. question: dating 18yo's? ok? grey area? ok but just a bad idea? what say you?
also: I saw 'District 9' which was REALLY good. a little bit intense, but just great. Look up Neill Blomkamp. His shorts are awesome too. He did a few Halo based ones which are cool.
ok, I promised you pics, here:
Some more 'work' on ninja+mime. started a page. thought it sucked. but mostly, I'd like some critques. I know its not even done, but... well whatever. If you have something to say, Id love to hear it, even if its just 'keep going idiot!'
A momohime from Muramasa. Game was beautiful, but kind of repetitive and boring. I work for the publisher, and I still think this.
I read 'The Long Holloween'. It was gorgeous. I loved the intensity between Bruce and Selena and their respective hero personas. every panel with them in it had them half wrestling half embracing. In general that book had a great Catwoman. Which is funny cause it used one of her more silly costumes, imho. I really love the 80's/early 90's reboot of the batman story. Ive also read 'The Dark Knight Returns' and 'Batman: year 1' and I absolutley reccomend them all.
