It's been a busy couple of months...hence the lack of quality updates. I've been swamped with end of school stuff: exams, assignments and extra study. Good news though, it's all over. I'm graduating tomorrow, and I just had my formal last night. Pretty fun actually, though I was the only girl not wearing a dress ^^; Oh well.

Anyways, with all the school stuff done and a looooong holiday in front of me, I'm gonna have some time to do some more quality pieces. Mainly I wanna practice using Blender, so I thought I'll try modelling and rigging some simple Heartless designs from Kingdom Hearts. Plus I wanna feel kinda ready for Uni next year.

So, keep an eye out in the next couple of weeks. Using Blender won't be the only thing I'll be doing these holidays, I have a whole list of video games that needs to be played. Right now I'm playing Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, it's pretty awesome so far and I'm starting to get addicted to it.

Anyway, I got my old N64 out of the cupboard, gave it a good dust (geez was it dusty) and threw in Ocarina of Time. Anyway, this has kept me nicely occupied the last couple of days, and I'm hoping it will last me one more week until 358/2 Days comes out. Gotta go back to school next week so I'm hoping that will speed up time a bit.

I considered freezing myself...but it didn't really work well for Cartman, so I don't think I'll take the risk.

Anyway, to celebrate my renewed obsession with Zelda I just finished drawing a picture of Link. I'll scan it next chance I get, it's almost midnight here and the scanner will probably wake everyone up.

Righteo, that's about it from me.

I know I said I'd update with traditional works, however there is some spiffy digital stuff there. I made them with a program called Blender, and it's for my ITS class.

I might update more later, however I have block exams coming up, assignments due, and a practice QCS test over two days (one of them being my birthday >.< ) Anyway, all this is happening pretty shortly, so I'm gonna be busy as a bee for the next couple of weeks. I even had to ask time off work just so I could study. Stupid year 12, so much pressure and work 'cause it's the last year of school.

Anyway, I have another Blender creation about half done, so I might finish that up and submit it...if I get time.

'Night all.

So, to start off, I bought a book, (actually six books in one) called Draw Manga. I'm gonna learn a few of the techniques in it (guidelines, colouring, etc) and eventually adapt it to my own drawing style.
Anyways, if anyone has some helpful comments, books or websites that they know of, I appreciate any help.

Anyways, I'm actually trying to update my gallery more frequently now, 'cause see the recent submissions? Three in one week! I think that's pretty damn good.

Also catching up on my gaming, since I've had a ton of schoolwork and such this term, but it's holidays now, so yay!

Right now I'm playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II on Xbox, and Zelda: Phantom Hourglass on DS. Next game on my list is The Force Unleashed, which I so can't wait to play, but I gotta finish KOTOR 2 first.

Also reading To Kill a Mockingbird for English. It's supposed to be really good, so guess I'll just have to wait and see eh?

Oh yeah! I saw Wall-E last Thursday! It's sooooo cute, I encourage EVERYONE to go see it! And if cuteness isn't enough for you, fat people falling over is sure to get you to buy a ticket!

Hehe, guess that's about it for now!

Laters!

Holy crap I'm almost out of school.

Woah...that's like...wierd...or something...

I'm so old!! *cries*

]]> ~blackmage-1 Wow..that term went quick... http://blackmage-1.deviantart.com/journal/15811502/ http://blackmage-1.deviantart.com/journal/15811502/ Wed, 05 Dec 2007 17:48:07 PST
Now, after a week or so of rest, I'm gonna look at putting up some more artwork. I was gonna focus on my gaming these holidays, that is, making games using a spiffy little program called GameMaker.

Maybe I can put up some screenshots or something from the finished products...

Or maybe I'll figure out how to get it to the web for all to download!

We'll see, we'll see...

I guess there was some artwork from my Art class that I can put up, like those mask drawings, and the final mask piece as well.

Laters all, check back soon for a much needed update.

Ah, and now holidays, two weeks of playing video games and eating pizza.

As promised, an art update, starting with my English assignment on Fractured Fairytales. Presenting: The Three Little Pigs, the Wolf's Tale!!!

I plan to scan my Art sketches for my clay mask in the next few days, but alas I cannot write any more stories, I have the biggest writers block ever, you can thank school for that.

Well, that concludes this journal entry, you can thank my writers bock for that also.

Laters all!

I have some drawings to put up as well for the new art unit, clay masks. They'll be up as soon as I get some energy to go to the scanner on the other computer.
Anyway, I have some assignments to finish, exams to study for, so I must be going.
