Apart from a couple of pieces I did for my small-scale design course which ended 6 months ago, Photoshop has barely been opened. I remember when I used to wonder if I would ever go a day without loading it up and fiddling with something :(.

Thanks to everyone who noticed and told me as soon as I logged on this morning.

Have a nice day :P

My Laptop arrived today. Its awesome, I love it. I'm currently in the process of sorting it out and transferring some files onto it.
I've been really inactive over the last few weeks, partly because I knew this 4gig baby was coming, but more from general laziness :P Once I can get Illy+PS I'll be up and running and ready for some art ;)

Had my Oxford Uni Physics exam last week. It was very (very) hard. Just have to wait and see if I get an interview.

Hope you're all good! :)

Take a step into the future through this expanse of next-generation illustration, which sports a quality photography section and some impressive motion submissions, on top of the usual bbarrage of brilliant digital art. Featured artist Silesti has burst onto the scene with admirable enthusiasm, and fully deserves their top spot :)

I have 4 pieces in the pack (I love a bit of sci-fi ;))

I'll get a wallpaper sorted at some point.
I should also get round to watching The Fifth Element since everyone is saying how similar the piece is to the film! I've never heard of it before, let alone watched it and been inspired!

I've submitted 2 solo pieces and 1 collab with Elijah.

Entitled Unity, and released to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of the groups conception, the collection of art, photography and music displayed represents the continuing evolution and consistant togetherness shown by the Evoke collective.

I have been awarded with the coveted featured artist slot this time around, and to say I'm delighted would be an understatement! :)

Featured Artist Myaka did a great job with 5 submissions, including a fantastic first motion piece. He has an impressive range of skills which he's really showed off for Afterlife :)

This is my first release over at S3, and I've managed to whip up 2 new pieces for it. Hope you like 'em :)

I'm actually quitting the subject though. It'll give me more time to focus on my other 4 subjects next year when they get harder, and hopefully give me a little more free time to do some personal work :)

I've submitted Africasia as a print. Never tried it on DA, so I thought I'd give it a shot.

I'm also really annoyed. Sky Driving was done for a contest over at some obscure photo site I stumbled on. The first prize was a Wacom Cintiq WX, and 2nd and 3rd were other Wacoms. Naturally I had to enter.
The results came out 2 days ago. I didn't win. I didn't come 2nd or 3rd, or 4th or 5th or anything at all. I came 52nd. Fucking hell. 30+ hours of work for nothing.
I wouldn't mind if it was like the Crestock contest or something. People like Rarz and Ishbu making masterpieces.

The turn-out may have been as minimal as the theme itself, but the quality has certainly not suffered, with some outstanding individual efforts and excellent conceptual efforts. I managed to whip up 4 pieces, and my matte painting 'Tranquility Falls' earned itself a featured piece :)

The featured artist for Zen is musician Vitaliy Zavadskyy, a.k.a. NEO. Check out his work here.

So I arrived yesterday afternoon, switched on the PC and after 15 minutes it switched itself off, let off a pretty loud bang and emitted some smoke. Not good.

This will be the first proper group I've been in, and I'm really looking forward to the inspiration and motivation creating for a themed release should bring.

It'll be great creating alongside some of the best artists and designers today, and I'm hoping I will prove myself worthy of the Evoke Artist status!
Expect me to push myself as far as I can with future pieces :)
