    Real Life Status:
    Alive; Been better but getting better. I miss this place. Maybe after this semester I'll see about connecting here again.

    Interests/About Me:
    Aside from LEGO?

    I'm a freelance illustrator about a semester away from graduating with a Bachelor in Fine Arts - Emphasis in Illustration and Concept Art/Design. I enjoy playing both console games and board games (RPG FPS be my thing, although I'll be the first to admit that I'm no expert gamer. Have a deep love for the Mass Effect Trilogy and hope to be working on a team creating those kinda of games in the future.)

    Huge Transformers nerd. Bionicle and Transformers were my two biggest fandoms growing up (And even as a "grown up," if you wish to classify me that way.) I'm just going to stop myself now before I start babbling about robots...Because I will.

    Aaaaand...That's about it? With the end of my college/institutionalized career almost at hand, I'd like to plug back into some of the communities I've loved and missed and see about starting up some old projects that have been on the backburner for far too long. We'll see. Don't count on anything just yet, I still have a semester of Karzahni to go before I'm able to leave the land of Schooldom that I've been traveling through...

  1. Got a huge nostalgia kick this week...I've missed this place.

    Imminence

    Beautiful work! I did get a feeling of foreboding from the clouds, (which I'm glad, having just read that that was your intent) and they do make Takua look small and vulnerable. They are, however, distracting in the sense that my eye kept on wandering away from Takua's smallness and towards "Makuta." If you wanted us to focus on Makuta, than perfect! If we're suppose to focus on Takua, then something has to happen to bring the viewer's eye back down. What, I'm not exactly sure, because I absolutely love the textures you've created in the clouds and the almost-silhouette of Takua.Perhaps playing with the distance between cloud/Makuta and Takua? My thought being so that they're not as separated from each other and also so that the blue sky doesn't act quite as much as a severing of the two but as a bridge instead. (I'm not sure if that would help lead to Takua or not, but it's the only thing I can think of at the moment.)Again, beautiful work! I enjoyed it very much.
  3. Happy Birthday, Timoteo! I hope you have a fantastic day today!
  4. Man, I was a bit worried when I first started reading these posts and was only seeing a week or two...I'm glad I'm not the only one who took a really long hiatus.For me, it's been about...*counts* ...Darn, about 8 months now. Initially it was because I was in the middle of a out-of-state move/college transfer/jobless and just under a lot of change and stress when the forums were made available again. After things settled down I kinda just...Forgot. (The long hiatus didn't help.) I'm hoping to be on here more frequently and participating again, but it depends on what life decides to throw at me next.
  5. I'd be all for that! I love looking at art books and seeing where a concept started and how it progressed to the final design and product. Like other's have mentioned, it would be neat to see how each year was planned and the work that went into it. Being an illustration/concept design major, I'd personally love to see tons of the earliest drafts for different characters and settings, and even "scrapped" ideas as well that never made the final cut. The one concern I'd have is the price-to-content ratio. I don't mind paying a bit more for an art book so long as there is an adequate amount of content to justify the price. (Which is saying a lot coming from me. I tend to buy my books second hand & used, but I'd buy this new if I felt the content was worth the price,)
  6. Apologies to my friends for not being around...I'm trying to be more active, but life is dragging me around by my hair, so to speak.

  7. XD Man, now I want to see that in either a short story or comic...Anyway, I'm not going to repeat what everyone is saying, but another thing to keep in mind is that there's a difference between book-learning, and experience learning. I read how to drive a car, and studied, and even drove similar vehicles that worked roughly the same way. However, it was a whole other thing the first time I had to drive surrounded by strangers going 40+ MPH and had to put that book know-how to use instantly. I knew what to do, but I wasn't particularly graceful at it the first time and had a "learning curve" to conquer. And I didn't even have a riotous, rebelling group of passengers behind me doing everything they could to make me crash while I was driving for the first time. (Brief edit: To get back to the point, Makuta Teridax may have had the "book knowledge" to run the robot, but he still had to gain the experience and deal with factors he wasn't suppose to deal with before he could operate it efficiently) There's my thoughts on it.
  8. Thinkin' about changin' my name. Thoughts?

      NOOO!!!! I love your name! (:

       

  9. I know I'm late to the party, but whatever. I'm so excited that the forums are back! I'll admit I was getting a bit worried there for a while, but I'm glad that my worries didn't pan out. The forums look great, by the by!
  10. Ditto. While red may be more "correct," I'd sure like the black one! ^.^
  11. So long as your not going to Phoenix or one of the valley cities, you should have some nice weather. Before I left to visit my family, we were hitting the 80 degree F mark. (Although, we were also hitting an unusual hot snap, so hopefully it's nice and normal again.)
  12. Hey ya! What times are you showing? It's becoming quite a juggling act and it looks like there are two times I can come (one on friday, one on saturday) and want to make sure I can see you guys show!

    Nanonanonano!

    I'm in and have been doing a count-down as well! I just need to figure out what story I'm going to write...I got to 50k last year and still managed to have an incomplete story. (Though I could probably shave at least 10K off due to lengthy expositions made out of desperation to finish when I was blanking out...) but I doubt it would carry me through to another 50k, and I don't want to be stuck mid-wrimo. *sigh* I'll figure something out... Edit: My nano account name is writers_block
  14. I know, I can't wait! ^.^ (I might have to switch to Saturday morning instead of Friday, because Friday has slowly become more and more complicated as this month has gone, but I will be there at least one of those days!)
  15. *RCF has mande a lbog entry about meeting you* lol
