Also, I get 700+ deviations and 300+ messages to my watch every week so I can't keep up with the flood. I really want to check all the 3D works in my watch and comment in all of them but I havenät been able to do that lately as I've spent my time on dA desperately trying to keep up with Legion stuff. I really can't do it anymore. So I must regretfully announce, that I'm giving up my number and resigning from the Legion.

I really like the experiment and I enjoyed the funny and clever art pieces of the fellow legionnaires. Keep up the good work guys!

Some of you may know that I have a comic project in development. My 3D-modeling skills haven't improved as fast as I thought they would so my childhood dream of making a 3D-animation has to wait. So instead, I'm starting from the bottom of the ladder and practising graphic storytelling in a form of graphical novel (comic). I'm at the process of gathering ideas and putting the story together as well as trying to find a way to draw the comic. I really suck at drawing and vectors so if anyone knows another way of illustrating, please let me know. The comic is going to be mostly serious but it will have many humorous arcs and my characters are usually quite funny Also, the story is going to be very Final Fantasy-like. Those games have so much influence in me that I can't help it Though my comic is going to be partially an anime parody too. It all depends how well I can merge all the ideas I have at the moment.

On top of that, I need to learn how to make music with my computer. My friend asked me to compose a background piece for his 10 minute short film in development and the instructions make the task quite challenging. I'm currently working on my second song but I'm still not good enough to compose a professional-sounding pieces.

Well there's just a few of the tasks I have at the moment. I'm adding my worklist below so you can see how much stuff I need to do Everything I'm learning at the moment is going to help me towards my dream of making an animation.

"To do -list" (ordered by priority)

-Learn to make good music
-Learn 3D-modeling
-A website project (getting paid for that! )
-Graphics and layout for a magazine (don't get paid for that but I get a potential customer for the future)
-Some smaller graphic design stuff
-Comic project

Ps. I'll try to upload something decend here soon! Nite y'all!

The battle system is based on votes so Emous gotta win the poll in order to advance to next round. He's currently 3 votes behind and I've already played my whole hand. I got my inactive dA-friends to log in and vote, I got my few watchers to vote and now I'm screwed So If you are reading this and got the spare time, please go and vote for Emou [link]
