Well programmer problems yet again *sigh. My partners seem to never fully commit to their projects. I think I will finish up those characters at some point though. A blast from the past for you: I am playing Everquest again, looking to enter some of those SoE Live events and practicing up. I think I want to take a serious look at competitive gaming, though I will still keep my art skills polished up just in case! As always I will try to post something here when I can. It is kind of turning into more of a traditional blog than a game development journal, but that is life for ya.

Finished the scout animations. Taking things slow still, have the basic sketches done for the other heroes but have yet to get around to coloring them. Will set a goal to at least get that done this week.

Alright, I am getting back in the groove of things now sorry about the delays. I have recently started animating a character for the new game (Heroes village or some such) I am working on seen here: http://www.esnips.com/displayimage.php?pid=34209793 We got an attack and walk animation for an archer type character. It should look familiar because it was created back when I did Legion of Devagog stuff. However, it was never really used so I am using it here. I will have to start from scratch for some of the other animations but this is a good jumping off point. See ya next week! And if anyone knows of some freelance art work let me know, I am currently looking for some extra practice/cash.

Man, sometimes life just comes up and bites you lol. Got a new job a week ago and it has been taking up a lot of my attention. I am working a CNC machine on the night shifts at CAPCO. Not a bad job, a little repetitive, but that is actually okay because I am also learning a ton. Just haven't felt motivated to do art while transitioning to this new lifestyle/schedule. I also am loving guild wars 2, great game so far, but again distracting from my art endeavors. I am beginning to think game art might just be a hobby for me; I just like playing games too much and creating them can be daunting. Still I am not ready to give up quite yet, I plan on hammering out some art this coming week.
