I've been in an art rut for quite some time now. With one or two exceptions I've hated pretty much everything I've been drawing, even my sketches and I even at one point today I got halfway through drawing a picture, I'd put in the base colours and so forth just had to put in shading and details. Then I suddenly hated it and deleted it, just like that, BOOM!

I came across a cartoon artist on the Youtubes called Will Terrell. Started watching a certain video of his and now I feel tons better. ^-^

Our play is now over so I can relax a little until we start the read through for Hi-De-Hi on Tuesday.

We somehow managed to pull the play off with only 4-5 weeks rehearsal. The Mayor even came in to see us after tonight's show and said we were brilliant, so that's awesome :D

I've been thinking over this idea for a PMV series made in SFM. The main issue I had with it is the lack of a Grey Mann model for the second part and onwards. I open up Steam and BAM! Someone just released a Grey Mann model. Is good ^-^

Now I think I have everything I need to make the first three parts O:

I impressed a hundred nobles and a Queen this morning... I impressed all of them... DD:

FFIX is a game that for one reason or another, I always kept losing my saves to or even the game itself sometimes. Today I decided to start it over yet again. Around my tenth attempt at impressing them... I did it... I DID IT FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER! :')

Now I have that amazing Spanish like song stuck in my head, Vamo' Alla Flamenco~ :3


and it'll be stuck there again when you do the Chocobo stuff :P

Back when the Power Ponies aired I got an idea for a comic.

Fast forward to today, I finally decided to start working on it. Following advice from the all knowing Youtube I sat down and started writing the script for the comic. somehow I managed to chug out around four pages worth of 6-9 paneled pages.

Is good.

Given that I'm trying to use the three act formula and haven't finished writing the first act yet that means my comic is looking to be at least 25 pages long :I

I thought I'd try for concept artist again but even though my art has gotten better it's still really, really lacking, especially in the building areas so I'm gonna pass this time 'round I'm afraid.

I'll definitely be floating around on the open server weekend again though.

XCOM Enemy Unknown...

Everything was all fine and dandy until I finished the alien base mission and then the game just fell apart.
I'm not talking about the difficulty spike, that's fine. I don't know if it's just because I'm playing the Xbox version but the game is glitching all over the place. Dead enemies floating in midair, aliens clipping and squad members through walls, Aliens are shot in the face and it's classed as a miss. I even had an alien stuck in the cieling once who could target my whole squad but none of them could target the alien.

This isn't how the game's supposed to go is it?

I might need to start the game all over again since it seems to happen on almost every mission now.

My folks leave the house so I actually have time to record. I start recording the second song I have in mind for the Crystal Crown Contest extra thingy and it's going awesomely, much better than the other cover I did...

Then my folks return over an hour early :l

Looks like I won't be able to get it done DD:

Be more active on the forum. (very doable thanks to new mobile)
Art more and actually finish my requests.
Animate more. I've got tons of SFM ideas that are way overdue for me to start on. Plus one or two Flash ideas and one that's a little bit of both.
Skype call speakeys (again, new phone = help)
More guitarin.
Getting back into actively auditioning for voice acting stuffs online if things at home become more stable.

I have finally found the joys of sticky jumping in Team Fortress 2. It's so much fun! :D

Rocket jumping's another matter. Not quite got the hang of that yet :s

last night of the play is over! :)

It was a shame we didn't manage to get a recording of it. A guy at our group brought his video camera over to record it but brought the wrong charger over :(

The shows all went down well and we had an audience of around 130 in all. Good stuff.

Fixed the weird audio problems I came across while recording for the singing competition. No more wierd fuzzyness for me, nope ^-^

Now this next cover I'm working on should come out kinda ok. Sound quality wise anyway :P My singing ability hasn't altered ovO

Yet again I'm having strange periods (sometimes a week or two long at a time) when I have no motivation to do anything at all. Usually during this time I have enough free time to do the odd thing here and there but waste it with teh vidja games.

But when the days come when I'm like "Heck yeah! Let's get tons of this stuff done! W00000!" I'm dragged away from it for some silly mundane task at every bloomin' opportunity.

I planned to do all sorts of arting today, was gonna have a big ole drawfest. Maybe even work on a couple of my SFM animations. Had a couple of covers planned too.

Guess what didn't happen :l
