As those of you who play with me in the BZPRPG have probably noticed, I suddenly dropped out of activity last week. The reason for that is that I got the incredible opportunity to work at the Star Wars: The Old Republic booth at GamesCom in Cologne this year, via contacts I got from school. We met the previous weekend for the initial briefing; and after clearing up all questions, we drove to Cologne on Tuesday, where we moved into the flats we would have during the week and to get our on-sit
As some of you might have noticed in my sig, I was abscent for the last weak. The reason for that abscense was the anual graduation major courses school trip (Yes. 6 words for something we have one word for in German.) to some other country.
The destination: Krk on the Island Krk, Croatia.
The journey: 13hours+ in some bus. Which aparrently was concipated exactly in such a way that I was unable to get a decent sleeping position during the night ride. We left last saturday around 10pm and drov
My Inquisitor Yandra Adaar. Dragon Age Inquisition was one of the few games in the past couple of years that managed to drag me into its world from the word go. In no small part thanks to the work of the ever-awesome Matt Rhodes, who's style this is loosely based on. Definitely not the last time I draw Lady Adaar ^^
I have to admit, I have not made a whole Toa Team at once before. It's a little harder than expected, but a lot of fun as well to write the backstory of six Toa, rather than just one. But it's fun to see what different inspirations can create in combination. In this case, you take Bram Stoker, add Prototype and supernatural beings and throw in some good old-fashionied Bionicle-Mystery on top. I think those of you who play will like the result. Now, I just hope NM approves these guys once I s
I know Necro is probably going to want to flay me alive for this...with his mind, but I've decided to re-install ME2.
For another playthrough. Playthrough Nr. 6 or more by now.
Now, chances are I failed and forgot to make a backup up my original safe-file and will need to recreate Alexander Shepard (As seen in my Avatar) and play through ME1 AND 2 or I did make a backup on the external HD...let's hope for the latter.
In any case though, ME2 came with such a buttload of DLC (15 Releases, 7 of
HAL is back. Aparrently he did not decide I was risking the Space-mission.
A few days without PC access can really get you to thinking. And I don't mean more time thinking away from the PC, I mean sleep-deprived lying awake asking about the question that results in 42 at 2am and no end in sight.
I got some good results and some mental walls. Also I really lack in socializing in RL atm. Pm, comment or talk to me?
The upside(s) are not bad though: I figured out why some people I know are
As previously mentioned, during my recruitment workshop there was a camera team, putting together a documentary about getting the design job and the company in general. Very interesting and aside from my colleague Justin in Super Heroes, I show up in the background every now and then, not to mention our very own 55555 ^^
Hope you get a little glimpse behind the scenes!
If you haven't heard about it yet, a Judge in New Zealand has entitled a 9 year old Girl to change her name...I'd have done the same if my name was that unusual...
Here's the BBC news article.
Have fun ^^
H1N1, our famous swine-flu is, with the exception of a few single mutations, identical with the spanish influenza of 1918/19. I couldn't help myself but think of Monty Python.
Vader: "See-threepio, Artoo never told you what happened to your creator."
C-3PO: "He informed me sufficiently. He told me you killed him."
Vader: "No... I am your creator!"
C-3PO: "No... no... That's not true. That's impossible! The odds against you being my creator are..."
Vader: "Search your feelings, You know it to be true."
C-3PO: "Noooo!! You see, sir, shortly after the Jedi were wiped out, my memory was erased. So that could explain why I'm having difficulty verifying your state
Hey guys. Nothing new from, except more art on the way, but today I am not here to blog about anything related to me. Crimson Jester, which all of you who ever stepped into the the BZPRPG in the past few years should know, at least by the name, has asked me to let you all know that he's currently taking some time off BZP. He lost two good friends this month, so you know why. Stay safe everybody.
Had the rare opportunity to see one of the few concerts legendary BÖC were ginving in Germany. Granted, I did not know all their songs before going, but I always liked their hits and they certainly delivered! Best money ever spent this year! Probably should have brought a cowbell for Don't fear the reaper, just for fun ^^ Cheers!
Hey guys. It's been way too long since I updated here. I don't really have a reason, except that with my blogs imagery being totally out of whack since the new forums came online, I didn't want to force anybody to look at something so horribly disorganized. Also, I simply haven't taken the time to update it...lazy me. Anyway, life is keeping me busy. I am trying to up my drawing output but it has yet to become a steady habit that yields results every third day or so, so that's what I'm working
So soon? Yes indeed! Keep your eyes open for the next few days, another character-illustration approaches! In the meantime, a public service-announcement from Lenny the Lemon-Shark!
A distopian future with augmented humans and a hunk of a protagonist? Oh yeah, just ask BD if that ain't awesome.
But aparrently that hunk goes by the stagename of Voltaire in RL and sings dark cabaret songs about the lack of lavatories on the Enterprise.
This friday my christmas holidays start. On Saturday I will leave to visit my grandma over the holidays, but before that on friday I will have my wisdom teeth removed >_< I am a little anxious about, but not too worried. I just hope I wont feel too much of it.
Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews) is 75 today? Whoa ^^
Speaking of years, I think I'll get my hands on the remastered John Lennon CDs.
And even more talk about remastered stuff: Starwars I-VI in 3D?
Yeah...today is a good day to die. Today I really hate myself. And it's even worse because there is no reason for it either.
PS: I am thinking about changing my fontcolour here. Any suggestions? I am tending towards blue.
Hey everybody, I know it's been quiet again for a few days. Which has mostly to do with the fact that I'm working on the usual secret stuff. BUT, today I can give you a heads up for something, if you have access to British television!
When I applied for the job, the Channel 4 TV crew were with us at the recruitment workshop, documenting the journey of my colleague Justin from application to starting the job. Normally these recruitment workshops are not open to the public, so if you wan

Yay ^^ My very very last exams in Maths and German have come and passed and I think I did a decent job.
So now there only remain 5 subjects to study for from now on, and two of them I can do single-handedly.
No news on Art however. I've been drawing stuff, but not colouring. Might take till the weekend before I decide to do that.
Just little updates. I'll see you guys around
