it's 2009!!

(Who's still writing 2008 on things by accident? I know I am)

Hey Folks thanks for stopping by,

Recently I've hit another career snag. Midway Studios Austin decided to shut it's doors earlier this month. However, I remain hopeful. I managed to escape with some good friendships, and a healthy dose of real world experience. On another note I recently became an octopus, and in an attempt to stay busy I decided to start a bunch of things at once. With all this stuff in progress, plus my move back to the great white north I've become one giant WIP of a person.

Some personal work in the middle-earth of completion.

Knight and day


Russian Patrol

...Also, there is a community challenge going on over at cgsociety.org where contestants undertake the task of redesigning a popular myth or legend into the "steampunk" genre. It sounded like a blast, so I took up the banner of my old buddy "The headless horseman". It's been fun so far, we'll see what happens. Here are some ideas I've been kicking around for it.

Bummer about the job, but I know you'll find new work in no time!

The headless horsemen images look great! I considered entering that contest when I heard about it, but I had too much other "real work" to do. It's a sweet prize package, though. Keep us updated on your progress with it.

Best of luck to you!

Oh, and congratulations on becoming an octopus! It's one of my favorite animals. I'm sure you'll find yourself able to fit into all sorts of places you never thought you could! And you can make your own ink! Think of the money you'll save!
