Cool things right now:
-Pixar's UP (It's really not worth the extra few bucks to see it in 3D, it's but a novelty.)
-Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence. (It's wonderful! Even the English dub isn't bad!)
-Grim Fandango. (It's old school Tim Schafer!)
-Empire Earth II.* (It feel just like Age of Empires!)
-Grand Theft Auto 2.* (It's free!)
-Torrents. <3

* When you have friends that can bring their laptops over for LAN play!

I visited Art Center, my hopeful school for this fall...showed my portfolio with hopes on gaining some insight on how to make my work good enough to get into the Entertainment Design program (good luck me).

I kept my daily self portrait thing going...and it will continue to go, I believe...I'm really enjoying it...one of the best ideas I ever stole from other artists I admire. Thanks guys...

The Assassins Creed project with the guys at the Duo Group [link] (I don't know how to make fancy links) is nearing a close...or at least my end of things. Artwork is I would say...80-90% there...few scenes remain and then there's just going to be some other promotional stuff. Hopefully we'll get a speedpainting video done to kind of get everyone excited for the finished animation. It's going to be sweeeet. Please check out the rest of their work, they're great people and they're good at what they do.

I, once again, resolve to become a more active member in the DA community. I have many friends on here in which I'd love to keep close too and I haven't been a good job of doing that. So I'm sorry for all the comments never responded too, or the deviations never viewed by me. Someday I'll make it up to you!

Keep drawing, guys.

The Assasin's Creed project is continuing forward fairly well...for those of you who don't know, I'm working with the Duo Group on a future animation based off of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed. They've done a lot of sweet stuff in the past as well as just recently. Be sure to check out their Metal Gear Solid short. [link]

The self portrait mission is going pretty well too...once December is over I'm going to compile them into a smaller image so you can see all 31 from this month...and then I'll just keep going.

It's going to be too short. It's going to be busy as hell. Aaaaaaaand it might not be relaxing in any way, but it'll still be fun.

I've attained a sort of new drive and direction with my art that's going to be pushing be straight through this Christmas break. I want to go to Art Center College of Design. Problem is, I can't afford that. So my portfolio has to be just that kick-awesome. The past month has been me accumulating information and phone numbers of people and things like that, making contacts, getting information, talking to students, all that stuff. I know I've got my sights set high, but who's to tell me what I can't do? Besides myself, of course.

I think you can count on seeing me as a more active poster here on DA. I've been getting a lot of comments from people about how I'm so unknown here on DA, I realize that there are certain "markets" here on DA that you can appeal to to gain a following...I'm not sure I want to do that, but I am a firm believer in self promotion. I feel that the only reason why I don't have more watchers, more favorites, more pageviews,or whatever your gauge of success is, is simply because I don't try hard enough. I guess I'll see how things progress as I try to become more active...I'm curious to try out some promotional experiments. Ultimately, as artists, we're all trying to "sell" our work to others, either in just getting them to view it, or actually for profit. So ultimately, to be really successful, you have to be able to advertise yourself to others. I'm looking forward to learning how to market myself better to others.
I hope this doesn't end up sounding like some big selfish endeavor, but I think we'll all find that eventually, we all have to find a way to make ourselves known, or else we just won't get anywhere. I'm so envious of those that just seem to do it naturally.

COMMISSIONS.
If anybody wants to commission me for either just a sketch or a full digital painting, just drop me a note.
I like to think that I'm pretty versatile, but I work in my own style and I think I tend to take some artistic liberties because of that. Anyways.
I'm pretty negotiable with prices, also.

Digital paintings start at roughly $30 and can vary based on complexity of subject matter and type of piece you want done!

Thanks guys!

The website is The Gatehouse and the kind fellow, ~Ottens runs it, regularly updating with art that is either steam punk in style, or influence. I just wanted to kind of show that off to you guys because it's a neat way for you to find other artists that are into steam punk, if that appeals to you, or if nothing else, just see some good art.

Definitely check out the website, you're in for a treat. It's a great, great collection.

Thanks for viewing, guys.

And because of all of this, special Props to *algenpfleger He's a great artist and a highly motivated one also. Check him out.

I also just wanted to let you all know that if anyone was interested, I will accept commissions. Just drop me a note.

As always, thanks for watching, commenting, faving, and critiquing. You guys are awesome.

I took this entire week off work, and it's also my last week of band performances and things, so I plan on having some more art up this week, some speedpaints perhaps, maybe I'll scan some of my sketchbook in, or maybe I'll do some tribute work. Who knows.

I'll also be gaming a lot this week. I have quite a few games to finish playing.

I can't think of any others off the top of my head, but they're there. So much talent!
Until next time, which is hopefully soon.

-Super Smash Bros. Brawl came out and I was at the midnight release to receive it happily deprive myself of just a little more sleep.
-Spring break is next week.

And in other news, *pollo-chan, I'll try to have your giftart done a little bit quicker, but we'll see. I'm being very experimental and may try a little different style for the painting/coloring. Thank you for your patience.

I've been very distracted and busy lately, many pressing needs that I've been attending to, and a great deal more that I've been ignoring. I'm trying to make an effort to stop missing opportunities.

Once I've completed my giftart for my dear friend ~soraneko, then it's on to *pollo-chan's gift art.

Also. If any one decides that they would like to comission me, I'm all for that. Just let me know.
