So ive decided against the battleships for the moment, money is an issue. No now i have been graced with some smaller minatures on the behalf of brothers and what not.

Walking cycles

As part of my previous failures i am doing a basic animation course as part of uni so i can try and graduate next year.

Well ive had to do a 2d walk cycle and here it is.

Cheese Gratings!

Usually when one decides to write a blog, it in most cases is used as an online diary, a site for criticism or for those people who are highly emotional a place for poetry that has something to do with spiders. In this case I'm going to join the online community with no real purpose whatsoever, because i am not a particularly concrete minded person.

So this is going to be a repository of useless knowledge and random crap i throw together and laughingly call art!.

Fragile beginnings...

Many moons ago, back when I was still a second year university student, I was inducted into a crew of three with the specific job of creating a masterpiece game mod that takes place in the undersea world known as Atlantis DSV (there is a link on other things on the right hand side). I was lured into this creative insanity with promises of world fame, the kingship of a country and white chocolate and Macadamia cookies... I at least got the cookies...."

Whilst we all passed the assessment task, the mod fell flat on its face like some cruel bastard had yanked a rug out from under its feet to see what happened... it inevitably fell and didn't get back up for a while.

However to cut a long story short, due to some crazed moments and odd conversations we have decided that it is time to once more try our hand at modding the game. The attached are images of one of the first game assets completed (at least in terms of modelling).

Another day a new blog.

So once again i find myself being added to the ranks of the many thousands of people who decide to throw up their thoughts online in the form of a blog. I'm pretty sure that there are more original methods of posting thoughts and the likes online, but even then those so called 'original' methods probably have a good deal of people using them too. So here i am creating a blog to show the world as it were, the insanities and not so insanities that somehow crawl out of the bone encasement that i have come to know as my head.

... Enjoy.
