My art work has been dominated by it, and indeed Kain and Raziel have even snuck into my dreams!

I can't say it's a bad obsession though, what with it being one of the greatest pieces of narrative ever; not to mention one of the greatest series of games ever.

I need to draw more artwork from the first Blood Omen. Good times...

If you don't know what I'm talking about, I suggest you pick up a PS2 pad and play all four games - they're excellent. I suggest to start with the first one and go from there, the first was always the best to me.

So enjoy the Silent Hill inspired fanart and photos while it lasts. ]]> ~Cat1987 http://Cat1987.deviantart.com/journal/8475283/ http://Cat1987.deviantart.com/journal/8475283/ Sat, 15 Apr 2006 03:21:07 PDT
Even though I had some initial doubts, I'm really looking forward to this film and have since been playing the Silent Hill games to pass the time. Including the second one, and the sub scenario 'Born from a Wish'. Also I have been playing the fourth one, you know, giving it a chance again. But the victims are ridiculously annoying and I've been really gritting my teeth to get through the various levels. On a plus note about the game though, it has inspired me to pick up my pastels once again for another fanart.

Hopefully, some more artwork should be up soon. ]]> ~Cat1987 http://Cat1987.deviantart.com/journal/8374903/ http://Cat1987.deviantart.com/journal/8374903/ Wed, 05 Apr 2006 14:52:20 PDT
But I think it's being overtaken by Howl's Moving Castle, I can't get enough of it, so I'm going to try and draw some fanart from it, simply because I'm enjoying the film so much.

Anyone else get mad obsessions with games and/or films? ]]> ~Cat1987 http://Cat1987.deviantart.com/journal/8319500/ http://Cat1987.deviantart.com/journal/8319500/ Fri, 31 Mar 2006 01:03:54 PST
Maybe now I'm finally confident enough to put my art on here, since ElfWood requires a 2 hour unseen written examination (Or something very similar ) and I just can't be bothered with it.

So yeah, treat me nicely and stuff
