New Art Genre 4 me.

Absolutely nothing interesting to report about in my normal life, other than that I've gotten a new 20 gig HD and am waiting for an opperotunity to install it. I'm finally slightly less inferior!

The School Bus

Since I'm back in school, and I have architecture/drafting as my primary shop course, I have access to AutoCAD 2004. The standard program in 3D design. I have used it for the past year to make 3D models, and I have been getting good enough to qualify it as art. Alpha_DSF, whom is in the same class, as I have steadily been getting better at drawing 3D models, Alpha has steadily been getting better at rendering them (applying graphics to the polygons and making them look good.). As a team, we have been making some awesome 3D models of mostly swords/blades, and hopefully, when he gets his account set up, we shall upload some of these works.

Ho-Hum, just another day...

Ok, so everything's just been the same as usual. Only thing differant about now than then, is that I have PROOF that my parents are crazy. I forgot to shut down my computer and turn it off as I went into another room to watch TV. My father comes into my room to open the windows, and sees my computer on. He's EXTREMELY right wing - conservative, so he gets pissed. Now, what any NORMAl parent will do is hit the power button, find me, and scold me. He doesn't even hit the power button, he just goes to the back, and rips the power cable out of the comp, unplugs it, and takes it into his room. If that's not crazy ENOUGH, he gives it back to me 10 minutes later. Soi in effect, he could have put across exactly the same message if he had merely turned off the power and scolded me. But He's nuts...

Skinning/Art news:
I've uploaded an ALPHA version of GSI here, and on customize.org . As anyone who reads this knows, GSI is a project skin of mine that will feature games coded into the skin. I'm still working on it. I've also been working on Tokyo_Matrix 2. I've halted that though, as I'm hitting a block on the Playlist. I've also uploaded a re-hash of an old photo from the Cruise Ship.

Whoa...

I completely forgot about this and my DA journal. I haven't posted anythign in almost a month!

I have nothing to report besides the usual...

Skinning/Art News:
Ok, so I've been busy with a couple differant skins. One of these skins has been Project GSI. The novelty skin featuring games coded directly into the skin. I've been working on that for the past month or more, and I will soon upload an alpha version. Another skin I've been working on is Tokyo Matrix 2. I just started it, and no, it will not just be a re-hash of the first, I've started redesigning it from the ground up. I just started on that onbe though, so don't expect it to come out too soon. Besides those 2, I have been working on a few more skins, but not so much.

I uploaded a few more photo's onto deviantart. Like I said, I got bored that day and went on a photo run on my bike. I took at least a dozen pics, and uploaded 3. Dumpsters Perspective 01 and The Local Deli

Besides those, on the 1st, I tried my hand at my first from scratch, non photo wallpaper. Based on the NYC Taxi's, It started off well. I worked on it for about a week, then I stopped when I ran out of things/ideas to put into it. And I can't upload it because it's just too empty. But keep an eye out for that...
