The last time I posted a journal entry was, I think, in January 2012 and that kind of shows how much I have neglected my DA page over the past year and a half.

Sorry 
(

This has been mainly due to the fact that education has taken up a lot of my time seeing as last year; I finished college, passed my driving test and started university at Teesside in the North of England studying Computer Games Art, which honestly has taken up most of my time in the past eight months. 

However as it is the summer holidays and I have newfangled 3D modelling skills and I now have some experience doing digital art. There might actually be some content on my DA page after a long, long break. The content that will be uploaded (if I can be bothered to) will be 3D assets (textured and non-textured), development art for character and environments and probably random sketches. 

The likelihood of me uploading any final pieces to DA is very slim and will instead probably upload them to a website with my portfolio on (when I bother to set that up).

Also if anyone wants a 3D model of something just tell me and I'll give it go because I need the practice. :D

HOORAY!!!

It took a year and a bit but I finally have a 1,000 page views!!!

I feel that a 1,000 page views in a year is pretty good considering the fact that I have only uploaded 22 Deviations and a couple of scraps but for the most part of 2011 I was inactive on DA. This inactivity was mainly because of college coursework, job searching and uni applications which I am still doing now and will be until some point in May. I will try to upload something in the coming months, probably something like 'Chandelure's Revenge' or something else I want to finish if I get the time.

Also if anyone has suggestions for things I could draw that would be much appreciated.

As the title suggests I have recently been swamped by college coursework and have had to put a hold to anything and everything for DA which includes revamping Who's got my Hat? Sketch by SimplyLazy475 with the suggestions I got from :iconlv100magikarp: and finishing 'Chandelure's Revenge' which I began in the summer holidays which was a while ago now.

However I recent got a new lens for my camera, a macro lens to be precise so I might become a little snap happy in the coming months especially around Christmas because of the holidays and the fact that I don't have college.
I'll have even more time if it snows.
God I hope it snows and buries the college, that would be wonderful.

I also have a couple of ideas for FCs which will be Pokémon related because that is about the only thing I'm a big fan of.  

So to conclude.
Up to my eyeballs in coursework and the possibility of uploading anything to DA in the coming weeks, months, years.
Slim.

Steve Jobs will without a doubt will be sorely missed by the world.

On Wednesday the world lost a visionary and one of the most creative and innovative minds in recent history. He has brought happiness to so many people around the globe and has given the world some of the greatest and truly personal gadgets in history and not to mention 12 simply wonderful and breathtaking animated films because without Steve's vision of a full feature length computer animated film, Pixar wouldn't have made the awe-inspiring films that it makes today.

I along with the millions of people around world will truly miss Steve Jobs.
Your greatest accomplishment - Apple. Think Differently
Your greatest investment - Pixar.

Steve Jobs.
We thank you.

Evening All

2 min read
I have developed a tendency to write journal entries and submit deviations late in the evening or to a greater extent midnight which has had a somewhat severe effect on the number of people who view my artwork seeing as most of them by this time have probably gone to bed which is something that I should be doing really because college calls in the morn.

I have been back a week and apart from the increased college population and a grand-spanking new library, it is pretty much how I left it. Starting last Tuesday and every Tuesday after that, I will be going to a Life Drawing class after college for the foreseeable future.
Sounds fun don't it.   
2 hours of feeling awkward in a room with people you know surrounding an old woman.
Barrels of fun.

Recently I have been trying to be more active on DA, posting photographs of motorways with streaking white and red lights and digital art sketches that aren't quite finished like the one show below:

Who's got my Hat? Sketch by SimplyLazy475

As for the deviation that I said I was working on in the Summer Holidays, "Chandelure's Revenge", I am having problems with character designs, I can draw Chandelure fine its just the other character I having problems with so it will be some time until that deviation makes it to DA.


Time for bed I think.
