... okay, I admit it, I feel quite bad D:

Guuuuyyys, I totally forgot to tell you that I wouldn't be online for two weeks... grah. Now, I of course have no idea how much I need to catch up with, particularly in the mafia games; but I'll get back to that ASAP, I promise. Hope you all can forgive me once again...   Anyways, hope I didn't miss out on too much, and that you've all had a nice 14 days without me =P

Don't really know what to blog about...

:shrug: My life's been even more boring than during university season, I suppose... apart from daily maths practising, maybe. Not much, just ± 1 hour to keep me 'in training', but still...   Well, I am still progressing with blender, and recently got a new graphics card (thanks to my brother, who bought a new computer and offered me his old card for a good price...), which means I can finally play one of my favourite games at highest setting and it's absolutely beautiful. :3   But otherwise... n

WIP of a small redesign... [Art]

(click thumbnail for whole drawing)   In the past I used to play around with her design more often than I do nowadays... but really, it kind of annoys me that I'm still using a design I came up with when I was 14, maybe 15. So yeah, this is one of a handful of redsigns I'm currently working on/with; I'll probably still draw some more before settling on one. ^^

Multiple braids are fun! :D

It's an exhausting hairstyle, but also... I don't know, it feels funny. And since I am not really considering dreads at the moment this is the best alternative for a day or two. xD   In other words, tried it out today and it looked better than I'd feared . ^^

So tired...

somehow I haven't been able to sleep properly for a week or so... it's quite annoying

3D-Houses and exams... oh well.

So my exam went... okay, I guess. Not perfectly well, not a complete catastrophy. I could have done better though. :/   ~   ^ I decided to give Blender another try, so expect a couple of silly and or pointless renders over the next few weeks/summer. Like this little house I finished just shortly ago xD (and yes, I'm working with that wikibook, it's extremely helpful ^^)

D:

'nother exam in two days. Very scared of it, also because it's my first exam of that kind at university. Then again, I still get a second chance in case I really fail it. Probably even a third, so what's there to be scared about? ...as if. ><     Aaaanyway, apart from that... Well. I finally have holidays (more or less), so today I also found some time for reading again... I missed that. :/

Yeah, um, blog entries... [wrapup + art]

Descriptive title that is totally going to raise peoples' interest? Check. Awesome opening line that is totally not whiny or sarcastically so? Check. Heaploads of self-pity? Why yes, check! Great, time to start the entry.   ~~~~~   ^ So I drew some weird kind of animal skull. Not really a deer, not really a demon, maybe a bit of an alligator? xD But hey, for the first time I've ever drawn something like that it's actually quite okay. ^^   Otherwise, not much has happened art-wise - I'm way too

... I think maths and creativity work together surprisingly well. O.o

Whaaaat? I had a maths test today. And one of the problems, was, well... it was similar to one we'd already had in that course, but that was one of the few problems hardly anyone had been able to solve. Which means I had to improvise. D: And a friend of mine too said that it was odd (and he was one of the few who had been able to solve the other problem :/ ). Ah well, we'll see how it will turn out.   But there's something odd I have noticed about maths and art: on some rare occasions, after ha

Some things never change...

Like for example my love for winged helmets. Not that any of you would ever have guessed that I like them The problem is, whenever there's one available in-game (in a PC RPG, of course) I'll do anything to get it. Usually I end up buying it [often at a ridiculous price*] even though I could also get it for free one or two episodes/levels/quests later.   Funniest part is that I often end up with two or more identical, yet awesome helmets over the course of the game. Ah well...   (yeah, I really

Cinema yesterday

Saw "Epic" with my sister and two of her friends... that movie was sooooooo adorablem and somehow they managed it to make all characters lovable, good or evil. Which means I didn't want anyone to die, and there was lots of sympathy... ah well. xD   Also, the 3D-animation was wonderful. Particularly the loose strands of hair every now and then; it loked so natural. :3

"A Toa... of Light" [Art/scribbles]

Alternative title(s): Takanuvaaaaaaaaaa or I wanted to draw Bionicle stuffz again ( link to bigger image) Why this is not in GA? I don't think it's a good idea to plaster that forum with half-finished scribbles ^^" Aaanyways, ideas, complaints, suggestions? I know the eyes are very human-y. :/

Well. That's annoying,

2 and a half more maths problems to solve, and only today and tomorrow left. Sounds easy, you say? Well it really isn't, because those problems take a while, and I'm also sort of not really motivated.   Also, it's cold and dark outside, not really suitable may weather. And there might even be snow in the next week. In freaking may. -.- It seems winter just doesn't want to leave...   [/end of complaining. For now]

Well, thankfully graphics aren't everything. :3

^taken from a snapshot from the game Drakensang - The River of Time (which is the sequel to Drakensang, BTW), where I am playing as - surprise, surprise- an elf again, a lady this time. ^^ I had to re-install it a few days ago because it once crashed while saving, and pretty much messed up the quicksave, which is bad... now I have it running at the lowst graphics settings, and oh wonder, it's working well. Just doesn't look -as- pretty. Ah well.   But then again, there's so much to look at in th

I hate being ill.

How come it's always on the days where I have a sore throat that I realize I want to improve my singing voice? Of course, doing sports is not really "allowed"/a good idea, either. And that annoys me endlessly.

"Test" tomorrow.

myergh, I'm quite scared of it - I mean, I did prepare, but the last test I 'prepared' for was the one I -just- passed, with 12 out of 20 points. :/ Okay, it's Analysis II, not Mathematical Methods of Physics, but still... I'm quite scared.   And as if things couldn't be better, I also kinda screwed up presenting one of the problems in front of the course, which means I may or may not lose some points. And I hate that. Everything was so much easier back when... I kinda miss the easiness about sc

Yay, it's back ^^

And there I was, worried there might be another long downtime xD there goes my willingness to do anything university related... haha, j/k, there's still a ton of stuff to do ><   Anyways, how's everyone been during these 2 days?

to blog, or not to blog...

... that is the question. Well, I don't really have anything specific to talk about, or rather, nothing to elaborate on in an interesting enough manner. So, I guess I'll just go ahead and list some stuffs from today. ^^   ~~~~   -The first day to wear new, high and kinda feet-hurting shoes is always the day, when you're going to be out of the house for more than 8 hours, including travelling back and forth, of course. Solution: carry a second pair of (flat) shoes around with you all day. Just in

So yeah. As said, nothing special, and quite scribbly... "But Taka, why do you post it so late?"   Because I went on an epic quest to save the world had lost my notebook this was doodled into. ^^" But, as you can see, I found it again. Sorry for the delay ^^"
