It's been too long!... Again!

I did have a post typed up...But my computer being the piece of crud that it is deleted all of it. I'm sleepy so I'll just throw all this art here and do a runner for now. Hopefully I'll post more shortly!


I'm moving out in around two months and since I'm leaving all my gaming material here...I'll prolly be skulking the internet instead haha.

Wheeeewwww!

It's been quite a while since I've updated this place... I really wish I had more time to throw stuff up here, but between college deadlines and lots of distractions it's been rather difficult to say the least. A lot has happened since the last update, some good and some bad, but hey it could always be worse!

Most of college is over, so I get a lot more time to doodle whatever I want! However, I've set myself somewhat of a summer project animation-wise. I won't tell you too much about it at this stage, seeing as the idea itself is only two days or so old, but it is based around the popular game Team Fortress 2. I recently bought myself a copy off steam, soooo very addicting! Not to mention inspiring hehehe...
So a lot of this art is TF2 based. Now, I have drawn a lot more than this...I just don't want to spam you too much with stuff that really sucks. Plus most of it is in my sketchbook and my scanner STILL hates me.

I hope distractions don't get to me too much... I do love CoD:MW2 and TF2 but I REALLY wanna make sure I improve my art this summer. Especially with people's faces and body structure! I wanna be able to style it all like crazy.

Click the engineer below to see him dance!...Really badly might I add.

Phew! Semester 1 is over!

Semester 1 of my HNC is finally over. It felt like it took such long time, especially after the last week or so. I've had so many technical difficulties that I've started to hate the college computers with a passion... Also the printers. They always want to break when I need to use them, or so it seems. I lost most of my work within the last few days we had left to work on it, but managed to pull out something to show.

Tomorrow I get to find out if I've passed and if I have made the cut for the 2nd semester. I really hope I have, because I really tried my best this time. I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses but... It's been a really tough year. Losing my gran made me think a lot about what I've been doing, how I am as a person and what I need to change about me. It took me such a long time to think it through and to be honest, I think I still am. I know I sure as Hell cry about it still. Thats for another time I suppose, though.

I haven't been drawing much on the computer, but I have a few old doodles I can throw at you all. Hope you're keeping well!
Time to find out if I'm in the clear. Tomorrow will be the make or break of it! Good night guys.

Le sigh...

So it's nearly the end of the summer holidays, I'm kinda afraid to go back to college. The work load this year is apparently similar to a tonne of bricks being slung over your shoulder and dragged up a hill. Goody!

A lot has happened during my absense of posting, on the art front aswell as the general life one... We have a new kitten called Cleo wandering around the house, good thing too because my family really do need a little cheer around here. She's a lovely beastie, Bruce and her get along like a house on fire. They play together for hours and when they're done they cuddle up together and snooze. It's really sweet!

My grans not doing so good however... The chemo therapy has taken it's toll as expected, she's weak and needs a lot of help around the house. She also took a fall a few weeks back which gave us all a scare. She was taken into the hospital today because she's started blacking out a lot and we were getting worried. I'm sure she will be fine after a few fluid drips though. I wish my parents were more hopeful though....

I'm also worried about my parents. They're getting really stressed out about this, because my gran needs help with everything. We even had to get a baby monitor put in her room so they could get to her during the night if she needs them. In saying that, my gran is also being difficult about it. She lies to the paramedics/doctors for a start, which doesn't help ANYONE. She also tends to only ask for help from my mum. To put it in perspective, she works 12 hour shifts at a time. It's putting so much pressure on her, she has to stay up late with my gran only to get up super early for work. I mean, for the past few weeks she's beem going to bed at 3 AM and getting up at 8 AM. It's insane!

So me and my brother have been doing what we can to help out. I've adopted to cooking and cleaning the kitchen up, also hoovering and cleaning various rooms, dusting and the like. I found that I love to cook! It's awesome!
Been drawing less and less however, but that can be expected. I've compiled a bunch of stuff I've done over the period, but I can't put all of it up hehe.

Lately, we've also been doing some rearanging of the house. I moved into my gran's upstairs room, she and my brother moved into downstairs rooms. It's not a perminant move for me, but it's still nice. I've never had such a big room! I also have a desk to call my own now. Still moving stuff but it's done for the most part. :)

Anyways, I better get moving! I have to clean up and cook dinner before my dad has to go out to see my gran. Hope you're all keeping well!

Toodle pip!
