                <description><![CDATA[ So you thought burgers are usually served with fries? Yeah, so did I. Today I got it served with carrots too. Burger with fries and carrots. It's either going to be a new trend, or someone made a very interesting exception to common nutrition customs.<br />No wait, I get it, it's all a conspiracy to make you eat your vegetables...<br />But hey, it was good, so who cares?<br /><br />So, I was dead until <a href="http://osyris.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/s/osyris.png?1" alt=":iconosyris:" title="osyris"/></a> resurrected me with the Dragon Balls. Don't aske me how he did it, but I'm back and for some of you here that's probably what counts. Been too lazy to update the page until now, but I think it's time to act.<br />Have only been in one of the <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://back2square1.mevio.com">Back 2 Square 1</a> episodes until now, in fact the one I got resurrected, but the show has been going on (still trying for more win and less fail, and failing I've been told). If you happen to have a 90 minute blank in your WMP or Winamp playlist every now and then, you should really drop by and check it out.<br /><br />On other news, yesterday was <a href="http://mangaworkshop.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/m/a/mangaworkshop.gif?1" alt=":iconmangaworkshop:" title="mangaworkshop"/></a>'s first live streamed lesson, held by <a href="http://robaato.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/o/robaato.png?2" alt=":iconrobaato:" title="robaato"/></a>. Though some of us were cheated out of 1 hour of our time, because apparently the GMT clock doesn't use daylight savings (damn you country of GMT!), I was among the lot of people who attended the live lesson, and it was awesome. The lesson in itself was great, and the chat was simply hilarious. I'm looking forward to the next lessons, and I'm expecting them to be just as good as the first one, if not better.<br /><br />Since attending the class, some have asked me "so you start drawing again?". Actually, I've never stopped drawing; I stopped sharing my work, with the community and my entourage, until I'm happy with it myself. And until there's something that I really feel proud of, you won't be seeing anything new. Besides, I'm happy painting miniatures for now, so much to catch up with, and I'm tired of seeing boxes of pewter models piled to the ceiling gathering dust. That is something I might be showing though. The finished works I mean.<br />Speaking of miniatures, a great deal of my Tyranids are now in the hands of <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.youtube.com/user/Auxelli0n">Auxellion</a>, which has accepted the commission. I heard a few indignated roars here about not supporting our local pro painters and such crap, but until my local pro painters can offer me a better deal, I'm afraid Aux will see more work coming his way. He looked really happy when he got <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rRNt7TTPoM">the package</a>.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Haven't been this active in a while.<br />But I'm far from my original record of 14 journal entries over the course of a year (yeah, I know it's supposed to be a journal, but I don't really have that much to say about myself that could actually interest the comminuty <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" />). Anyways, uploaded a color test to my scrapbook, and two minor works I had around gathering dust.<br /><br />Latest news is, I'm going to be working with <a href="http://osyris.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/s/osyris.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconosyris:" title="osyris"/></a> on his podcast, which has yet to be given a name, along with <a href="http://dark-lilith.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/a/dark-lilith.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondark-lilith:" title="dark-lilith"/></a>. I'm kinda eager to start, but working with a 9 hour difference on the GMT side isn't going to be easy <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br />You aren't going to be seeing any more artwork from me in a while probably, except some concept artworks for the 3eVAN team and their EPOQUE game, whic means I will revert to some mecha-design while improving my own character drawing style to bring it closer to what I really want it to be. Nothing against comic looks, but it's simply approaching the anime style too much, and I hate that. Already too many people draw in anime style and I don't want to be one of them and fit to a stereotype.<br /><a href="http://rhineville.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/h/rhineville.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconrhineville:" title="rhineville"/></a>'s journal has given me some degree of enlightment, and it's time to start back from square one.<br /><br />I hope to be submitting something of the above mentioned before Christmas, but if not, stay tuned for <a href="http://osyris.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/s/osyris.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconosyris:" title="osyris"/></a>'s podcast to hear from my Schwarzenegger-y accented voice (damn it really sucks to hear yourself on a record).<br /><br />Cya <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ------<br />TAGGED<br />------<br />So... I've been tagged!<br />Tagged by <a href="http://darknesskiller.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/a/darknesskiller.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":icondarknesskiller:" title="darknesskiller"/></a><br /><br />Here's how it works:<br />1. Post the rules listed here<br />2. Each person tagged must put 8 random facts about themselves<br />3. Tags must write a journal about these 8 facts<br />4. At the end post list 8 people you tag.<br />5. Finally, go to their page telling them they're tagged<br /><br />I admit I cheated a bit, I needed help to come up with 8 facts about myself because I couldn't come up with them on my own <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br />1. I've a nice butt (according to my gf)<br />2. I'm hairy o_O<br />3. I have a nice smile<br />4. I'm punctual and reliable (oh really?)<br />5. I'm tall<br />6. I play tabletop wargames<br />7. I can cook<br />8. I love pizza <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br />And, following the rules now, I will tag these following people:<br /><a href="http://straniero81.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconstraniero81:" title="straniero81"/></a><a href="http://cydonia-the-ravenian.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/y/cydonia-the-ravenian.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconcydonia-the-ravenian:" title="cydonia-the-ravenian"/></a><a href="http://okamiocpictype.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/k/okamiocpictype.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconokamiocpictype:" title="okamiocpictype"/></a><a href="http://verde-acido.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/v/e/verde-acido.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconverde-acido:" title="verde-acido"/></a><a href="http://nephtrien.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/e/nephtrien.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnephtrien:" title="nephtrien"/></a><a href="http://rugiada.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/u/rugiada.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconrugiada:" title="rugiada"/></a><a href="http://osyris.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/o/s/osyris.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconosyris:" title="osyris"/></a><a href="http://wyrmslayer.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconwyrmslayer:" title="wyrmslayer"/></a><br /><br />-------------<br />ON A SIDENOTE<br />-------------<br />I don't know if anyone here has attempted to add me to their MSN contact list, but I've been refusing a fair deal of pop-ups daily, until about a week ago. So if anyone here feels it would be cool to chat with me, please do me the courtesy of making appropriate use of the message field in the MSN friend request, or write me an email or note (on DA) to notify me first.<br />I think it's fair and polite to actually know who is trying to talk with me, and not just coming home and dealing with a window that says<br /><i><insertrandomnamehere>has added you to his contact list, what do you want to do?</i><br /><br />Cheers <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Still dremeling on my Tyranids, and I've completed another wing job which I will upload soon. I used Bardo's advice and made a second magnet into them, and I also made them smaller to ensure they have a better hold.<br /><br /><br />And a ninja UPS courier deep striked the new 5th WH40k rulebook into my mailbox, so I will try out all the cool new stuff in a battle tomorrow <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> 1000 points against an Imperial Guard army, so my 'Nids will have some lunch ^^<br /><br /><br />Anyway, I've been to see WANTED the other day. As usual, I turned my brain off as I do for all those kind of movies, and I have to admit it rocked. Fun, entertaining, and 2 hours just flew by accompanied by gunfights and plenty of stuff blowing up.<br />If you have the time, and a few bucks to spare, go see it. It's worth the big screen.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's raining. Again. Nothing has changed much yet, and it's been like this for nearly 2 full weeks now. Sure, we had a few hours of sunlight and heat between the downpours, but nothing worth celebrating.<br />Sky is still gray and water's still falling. Duh...<br /><br />I'm unable to decide whether the small pile of scribbles and sketches is worth keeping, let alone uploading to the scrap section. Did some minor works for a few forum contests though, which I uploaded for my little heart's content. Better than nothing I guess.<br /><br />Spent my last couple of hours assembling some Bloodletters for Warhammer; they actually rawk and the new models are really cool. I have to admit though they did a better job with the Bloodletter sprue than with the Daemonette's (arm junctions... AAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGHHH!)...<br />Only downpoint is... I don't think whoever sculpted Khorne's new pets took into account the space restrictions for a regiment... I'll go crazy trying to fit those things in ranks...<br />But what can I say, I love the new models and I hope I succeed in the painting rush before mid-june (gaming eveningsssssssss <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />).<br /><br />So... I guess that's all for now.<br />I promise I'll give my best to not let another 6 months pass before I post again <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
Ok, nothing serious really. Just some dusty pics that had been stored somewhere on my harddrive and I found again by recently organizing my stuff a bit better.<br />
<br />
Managed to quit WOW. Feeling happy about it, though I was a bit stunned at first at the amazing amount of free time I suddenly had on my hands. So now you might say TR wasn't the good choice, but though that can leave room for discussion, I feel less enslaved to TR than I felt to WOW. Actually, I don't feel enslaved to TR at all, which grants me the privilege of actually saying "FU!" when I don't want to play it, and do something else. Else like... watching a movie! Yeah, I think that's what I'll do now. Watch a movie.<br />
<br />
And I have to thank <a href="http://rugiada.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/u/rugiada.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconrugiada:" title="rugiada"/></a> for being my guinea pig and letting me practice a few massage techniques. And helping me bake an apple pie.<br />
<br />
Ok I'm not making any sense anymore. But it's sunday <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I feel ashamed for not actually writing anything here for more than a year. And my last deviation is even older than that... bleah.<br />
<br />
I have been very, very inactive. Saddens me, but it seems I'm not really getting the "kick" to draw anything these times. I've done some works and I hope to be able to update them soon (and considering my snail speed, read "before christmas").<br />
<br />
I wish a lot of things, but among them I wish I had more time. Time for myself, time for my girlfriend, time to draw.. but there's always something to do. It's either work, or cleaning, or looking for a permanent alternative to temporary solutions so I can finally stop stumbling over the boxes that keep my stuff in my new home.<br />
<br />
Really miss you folks.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
I actually like the new look; I still have to get used to it a bit, but it's more spaced out and a tad more colorful than the previous monotonous gray tones.<br />
<br />
Well, back to work now.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ It's time to write something new. Besides, it's no longer christmas.<br />
<br />
Carnival is arising around here; though some events have been cancelled due to snowfall and the related incidents (some treebranches broke and tore through tents or damaged other festive buildings), people have festive blood running through their veins.<br />
Everyone is waiting for the big carnival event at our "capital", despite the voices according to which they want to cancel that event too, and that would suck. It's basically the main event. It's THE event. People come from all over the place to attend to it.<br />
<br />
Even though I don't feel very festive, and don't feel like dressing as anything or anyone but myself, I do feel the need to spend some festive hours. Even if it's just drinking with friends.<br />
<br />
Work just sucks lately, takes up too much time. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's been a whole week now.<br />
Just shit weather. The sky is gray, cloudy, the air is cool and I just wish nature would dump its liquid load once and for all instead of doing it a couple of drops at a time.<br />
<br />
Raindrops remind me of tears. It reminds me of sad things. I've seen too many people cry and shed tears over stuff I guess.<br />
All I can think of right now is "look at that, humanity is so f***ing sad even the sky has to cry about us".<br />
<br />

<br />
I'm working on a few new ideas. If something good comes out of it I'll probably upload them in the scraps section as test results.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I generally don't like rain. Any kind of fluid that actually drops onto me from above my head, be it in liquid or in solid form, generally awakens unpleasant feelings in me. That's unless I'm under my shower.<br />
I don't like it because on every rainy day it seems that everyone gets a sudden urge to go around, be it on foot or by car, so I see plenty of waiting lines, traffic is jammed, and the world is somewhat slowed down. All that extra time I spend waiting, happens to turn into time I spend thinking.<br />
So my heart and my brain just look into the isle of stuff they can bitch about, pick something and start.<br />
<br />
Did it ever occur to you that someone's life just got a shit hand dealt at poker and something bad happened and he's sad, depressed and stuff. Shit happens to everyone, life is made of good and bad times, not very much we can do about it.<br />
So he starts "You know this and that just happened to me recently and I feel like shit", so I'm like "Can I help you with something, or do you want to talk about it?" and he goes "No you wouldn't understand, and I'm gonna be fine soon anyway"; or "No, there's nothing you can do to help me anyway". Well, understandable; I mean nobody has a solution or a miracle cure for everything, and people don't generally understand what kind of a problem you have unless you explain it to them. But hey, if he doesn't want to talk about it, then fine.<br />
Now though, he's acting like someone who needs to draw attention, or make people care about him. People actually care about him and offer him their help, and he keeps turning it down, while going on whining about how shit their life just turned into. After some hours of hearing him sigh and bitch about stuff, I'm starting to get really pissed off about the whole issue.<br />
But I try to stay gentle, and I'm like "Hey man, if you feel that bad maybe you should go home; take a couple of days off, call your closest friends, and go somewhere to vent it out". I'm not really expecting any answer to my advice, because after all he's the one who knows best what's going on and if he wants to feel worse, then it's his business. And he says "yeah" and just goes on and stays there bitching about stuff. WTF if went to all the terrible effort of answering, then at least you could have shared some thoughts about it; I dunno, like "I guess I'll do it" or "you're right, I should go away for a while". But "yeah" is all I get.<br />
It kinda makes me feel I just wasted my breath by taking the time to give you a friendly advice that could make you feel better or stop worrying about something that's on your mind and you keep not wanting to talk about.<br />
<br />
The problem is that as much as I'd like to, I just can't make myself not care about him. He feels bad, he makes everyone feel bad about his own problems, which he doesn't want to talk about, and it just gets on my nerves. If you're so obsessed with not wanting to share your feelings and shutting everyone and everything out so you can hide alone in your own self, then fine; but at least stop going around waving a brightly colored flag that says "I feel shit" so that everyone can notice it and start caring about you, even thought you don't want them to.<br />
<br />
I probably should stop worrying about people, or offering my help. After all, I can't really help anyone who doesn't want to be helped. It seems that even though they need help, these people either don't realize it or just revel in the thought of being able to make others worry because they feel bad.<br />
<br />
<br />
Ok rant over. I guess I'll go play Winter Assault or blow some virtual innards in Doom 3.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ It all started with something my "godfather" told me. Well, he's not really my godfather, we just call the people with his role that way. He's my team coordinator in the mechanical engineering department I work in. His story was very interesting, and very realistic. I'll try to put it down my own way, adding some of my own thoughts, and maybe make it look somewhat funny.<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
<b>Random Thought #1</b><br />
You come to me asking if you could possibly borrow my version of AutoCAD. It could be you need it because you want to draw a plan of your house, change the layout of your living room, impress your friends with something technical, instruct your gardener so he plants that apple tree exactly where you want it to be, or maybe just because you're a showoff and just want something more to show on your available pirate software list. Whatever your reason, it's a perfectly normal one, and therefore perfectly understandable. To be honest, I don't even care very much why you'd want it, but I'm a nice guy so I lend it to you (that's if you've earned my trust, of course).<br />
You go home happy, your dream come true. You can't wait to try it out and do something. But you forgot one thing: you have <i>absolutely no idea</i> of how to use that software. You're probably confident, thinking that it works like a videogame: you just try buttons out and see what happens, rather than read the manual. Perfectly normal as well.<br />
You install the whole suite, you run it for the first time, the windows open, and you find yourself in front of a black background rectangle, surrouned by icons, menu windows and tools you've very likely never seen before in your whole life. Oh, I forgot a bottom window with the prompt "Command:" and a blinking underscore after it.<br />
You thought it was simple, but the chaos you have now unleashed hits you with full and brute force, without having left you time to brace for impact. You start to sweat, you gasp for air, you turn pale and you probably fall off your chair too. You crawl into the kitchen, drink a glass of water and with renewed energies you face your new foe again.<br />
It will probably take you between a couple of minutes and a couple of hours before you are able to draw a perfectly straight line or a circle; and it might take you a few days before you figure out how to print your work in the correct scale.<br />
You realize that what you wanted to do suddenly became something extremely complicated. Not impossible, mind you, just very difficult. And you might even blame ME for what is going wrong. Well thank you, I'll think about it next time you ask me for help.<br />
But you think better, so you give me back my disc, and ask me if I might have something that does the same, but is a bit easier to use. The answer is no: I gave you one of the most simple and user-friendly CADs in the world, and it rammed you. You probably feel stupid now: it's perfectly normal, and therefore understandable. But you're not stupid. You simply underestimated the work you had before you, or you just lack the training and knowledge to use the software and were too afraid to read the manual.<br />
But don't worry, I can still help you; I could teach you how to use AutoCAD, or even better I might do that work you need for you, in a few hours of my spare time.<br />
<br />
<b>Random Thought #2</b><br />
"I've seen a lot of nice stuff on DA; I want to get Photoshop and buy a tablet so I can do all that cool stuff too!"<br />
Somewhat, I feel that thought of yours terribly wrong. Why? Simple.<br />
Photoshop can work miracles, and a tablet adds a lot to that too, but they are both a huge heap of tools. Tons of nice tools, that's true, but just tools. And as such, it is only as skilled as the hand that wields them. Photoshop can shade or lighten the colors you chose, but it follows your instructions: if you have no idea about how light and shadow work in reality, PS surely won't teach you. A tablet can help in drawing lines straight, rather than trying to do it with a mouse, but if your line is trembly then the problem is with your hand, and a tablet can't improve that very much. If you don't have a plan on how you are going to proceed and work on your drawing, then you're pretty much screwed from the start. Basically, if you can't draw well, or can't draw at all, then PS sadly won't do it for you. Nor will the tablet. And every artist I know learned to use a pencil before he learned to use PS.<br />
<br />
I never attended any art school of sort. I know myself I'm not even nearly as good at drawing than what I want to be, but everything I learned, I learned it by myself. I tried, tried, tried, and tried again. And I failed many times too.<br />
And like me, many of the artists here on DA did the same: they tried, failed, learned and tried again. They learned their stuff the hard way.<br />
Thinking that just installing Photoshop and buying a tablet will make you able to rival... ]]></description>

Since I found a few interesting things,  I decided to scan them and show them to  this community.<br />
An old deviation every day, from now on <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> <br />
If it happens that I have something  new, then I'll post that too.<br />

I have a lot of ideas, I just need the  time to put them on paper. New stuff on  the way, I promise.<br />
Time to get back to work.<br />
<br />
Thanks to all the people watching me,  patiently waiting for something new to  come up around here.<br />
<br />
And a special thanks goes to the one  person who keeps supporting me and  cheering me up.<br />

I'm gonna buy a new scanner, after  repeatedly trying to revive mine. In  vain. Little old Mustek scanner... only  oldie but goodie capable of 19200  dpi... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/t/tears.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":tears:" title="Tears" /><br />
Yeah, getting a new one. Along with a  printer, and a punch of additional  hardware upgrades for me machine.<br />
<br />
My 0.1 xonox dried out, so I gotta find  a replacement for that too...<br />
<br />
Be back soon.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Filthy rotting wretches stole my bro's  cannabis plants. He put so much effort  into them, and everyone cared a bit for  them, if it was only giving them water.  Those little greeny smelly thingies... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/t/tears.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":tears:" title="Tears" /><br />
GROW YOUR OWN YOU BUNCH OF  MOTHERFUCKERS!!!<br />

Medieval Night lost their testing  grounds. They used to play in that  little, cozy hut up that hill...  Landlord sold it as a vacation house...  The band will have to find another  place to play their songs... Their nice  songs...<br />
Why does it have to be this way?... <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/t/tears.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":tears:" title="Tears" /><br />
<br />
The world seems all depressed all of a  sudden.<br />
I'd say it's all shit, but it's not  Earth's fault; it's the people who  populate it.<br />
My lioness is depressed, and I can't  seem to cheer her up.<br />
<br />
I feel an urge to destroy... to kill...  to simply break apart everything,  anything that comes across my path...  but that would change nothing. Only  make things worse.<br />
<br />
And I don't even know why I'm writing  this stuff.<br />
You don't read it anyway!<br />
And even if you do, you never have  something cheerful to say, so why  bother?<br />
Yeah, I'm angry. So what?<br />
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING AT?!<br />
<br />
Get lost! ]]></description>

Avantasia even drew me a new Icon <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif" align="middle" alt=":D (Big Grin)" title=":D (Big Grin)" border="0" /> <br>
One month without her is gonna be depressing; there's not many people  who can cheer me up like she does.<br>
All the more hugs when she gets back, I guess. <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif" align="middle" alt=":D (Big Grin)" title=":D (Big Grin)" border="0" /> <br>
<br>
Okay people, 'til the next upload.<br>
<br>
P.S.: I was wondering... does anyone read this crap anyway?<br>

<br>
Uhm... yeah... I actually hate making promises I find out I can't keep,  but it's not entirely my fault. There was quite a fuss going around at  work, and some market crisis is still shadowing industries across the  world. To say it in short, I had lotsa things going on in my mind, and  drawing things for DA was honestly on the bottom of my list of  priorities.<br>
<br>
Well, now that the situation has stabilized a bit, at least as far as  I'm concerned, I'll come back with some new stuff as soon as I can.  Time is not on my side though.<br>
<br>
But as always, I'll try my best to keep my gallery alive. And if all  else fails, I can still trade some hours of sleep. Who needs sleep  anyway?<br>
<br>
Stay tuned. <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif" align="middle" alt=":D (Big Grin)" title=":D (Big Grin)" border="0" /> <br>

Interesting place. They were even so  kind to leave me a comment. Not that anyone might care about it, but  I'm thinking about joining them.<br>

<br>
Most of you probably haven't missed me, but that's not relevant. The  buddies at the office sure missed me the most.<br>
Still, it's nice to be back.<br>
<br>
I won't need my military skills for a while.<br>
<br>
Time to get back to business.<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ This will be my last journal entry for a very long time. My 15 weeks of  service in the Swiss Military will start tomorrow.<br>
<br>
Thought I could submit something new, but in the end, I didn't have  time to draw anything. Up to an extent, I can blame UNREAL 2 for that.<br>
<br>
Anyway, you won't be hearing anything from me for a while, and though  I'll try to leave some comments here and there whenever I have a few  minutes spare time (mostly in the weekends), don't count too much on my  presence.<br>
<br>
But even if you don't hear anything from me, remember what the japanese  say:<br>
<i>tayori no nai nowa yoi shirase</i><br>
<br>
If everything goes well, as I said, I'll be back in 15 weeks; if not,  I'll be back a bit sooner.<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif" align="middle" alt=":D (Big Grin)" title=":D (Big Grin)" border="0" /> <br>
Take care everyone.<br>
