    I've come to notice that a lot of younger, or newer artists here on BZP, don't resize the scans of their sketches.
     
    Please do so! Especially when you add the picture directly into your posts!
     
    It is no fun at all to watch a 2000x3000px image slowly build up, even with DSL, which not everybody has (Yes, I am looking at you Sisen, with you and your dial-up ).
     
    And I am not just saying this for the viewers pleasure, but also such large images with a big loading-time increase the rate of look-and-leave.
    So if you want more people to see your image, make it a bit smaller.
    Usually 800x600 is enough for small sketches. If you got a bit of detail, go larger, around wallpaper-size. And if you really want the giant version to be seen, add it as a link, not as picture.

    Sooo, I checked the E3 trailers.
     
    Apart from el seniore Ezio Auditore di Firenze, our Hashishin decendant, we also return to to a galaxy far far away with the old republic, but, the ultimate thing I am looking forward two are our Nanosuit-clad friends Nomad,Psycho and Prophet, back in action on the Lingshan Islands

    So, I am back from my one week of internet-relations absence. A few had chats with me over IM or PM during the last few days, but for the others, here's what's been going on: 
    First of all I was on a 3 day vacation at the northsea coast of Belgium with my parents. As you can guess from the entries opf the last few months, I've been busy, stressed and had to work through some weird, confusing, saddening enraging and other mood-changes due to some private trouble. I needed that trip badly to get some distance, and as far as success goes, I am pretty much feeling nothing when I think about the last 11 months. I am not as cheery as I used to be yet though and I might not be for some time. I'll see what the end of 09 brings for me as far as that problem goes, but I am pretty confident things can be fixed up nicely again. Maybe not in the way they were, but in new, good and solid ways.
     
    When I say I am not cheery that doesn't mean I am not in a good mood. I am in very good mood actually, mainly because I now something like a plan for the next 5 years and where I want to be then.
    Starting with:
     
    I HAVE CIVIL SERVICE SPOT! Yes!Finally! A job!
    The office that is responsible for refusal to join the reserve army has send me a letter today and last week I had an interview with the head of patientcare at the local hospital, so I will be hopefully tending to the sick people in the clinic there.
    Not as doctor or nurse though. I am not allowed to give medical advise, or perform medical tasks such as laying infusions.
    My tasks will be mainly tending to the people in a very sophisticated 1st aid kind of way. So cleaning wounds, changing bandages etc.
     
    The hospital is nearby, so I can ride there by bike. I am not sure what exactly my shifts will be, but most likely I'll work either in the mornings (from 6am on) or in the evenings (until 8pm). Which I find to be a nice timetable since I get half the day off, which lead me directly to my next point on the Agenda for 09:
     
    MORE FREETIME FOR ART!
    Yes. With half a day of and nothing to do in June I plan to advance quite a bit in CGing and hand-drawn art. I have a few drawings in the work but I want to see all of them finished so "new work" will be a bit reduced until I am done with this stuff I work on now. Starting today with working towards the point where I can drop the WIP behind the Vorox
     
    My Oral exam will be on Monday, 14.30, so I still have two days to prepare myself a bit, but it'll be smooth, espescially with the teachers that'll ask me questions.
     
    Plus, it'll be my birthday next month ^^
     
     
    Speaking of birthday's, my good buddy Adrian turned 18 last week and I actually managed to get myself drunk. Nothing funnier then to see what other people do with methanol in the bloodstream on such an occasion. A very good day ^^
     
    Now, to less serious matters:
     
    Asassin's Creed rocks! It combines a lot of elements from games I really like. So I get action, acrobatics and the occasional Hitman feeling from it, plus a very open gameworld. One of the best games I've ever played!
     
    Lego-wise, I now have all Glatorian and just lack Berix and Atakus to complete the collection for the first half of 09. I am looing forward to the Legends. Stronius, Gelu and MN are definately on my list.
    In the Starwars corner of my room, the CIS and GAR have both gotten new equipment and troops, namely the HMP droid gunship, the Magna-guard fighter and 3 clonetrooper battlepacks. So now my ATTE is actually manned by a 3-man crew of gunners, my Republic Gunship carries a team of ARC-troopers accompanied by two normal troopers and Master Plo Koon, while the Hangar in my cupboard has three walkers and Cmdr. Cody is on patrol with Obi Wan and some more troopers Funtime!
    On a sidenote: the Maganguard fighter was not originally intended to be a CIS ship. It is a vessel built by the Utapau on Utapau, with high-preformance jammers, ideal to take on Vultures and Trifighters. But it's nice to see an unused concept from Episode 3 in use.
     
     
    I guess that's all for now. I am trying to get a bit away from the net these days, mainly to keep a distance to some things and to focus on improving my art. You'll see me around, but not as much.
    As far as PM's go though, spam me all you want, I'll answer each and every single one of them.
     
    Peace out!

    When you try your best, but you don't succeed When you get what you want, but not what you need
    When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
    Stuck in reverse
     
    When the tears come streaming down your face
    When you lose something you can't replace
    When you love someone, but it goes to waste
    Could it be worse?
     
    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you
     
    High up above or down below
    When you too in love to let it go
    If you never try you'll never know
    Just watch and learn
     
    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you
     
    Tears stream down your face
    When you lose something you cannot replace
    Tears stream down your face
    And I...
     
    Tears stream down your face
    I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
    Tears stream down your face
    And I...
     
    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you

    You'll say, we've got nothing in common No common ground to start from
    And we're falling apart
    You'll say, the world has come between us
    Our lives have come between us
    Still I know you just don't care
     
    And I said what about Breakfast at Tiffany's?
    She said I think I remember the film
    And as I recall I think, we both kind of liked it
    And I said well that's, the one thing we've got
     
    I see you, the only one who knew me
    And now your eyes see through me
    I guess I was wrong
    So what now?
    It's plain to see we're over
    And I hate when things are over
    When so much is left undone

    Ok, maybe this thought has been nagging at me since months now, but I just need to put it out there, just to vent some steam:
     
    Am I the only frikkin person on the planet who thinks what I am currently doing is worth fighting for!?
     
    Guess I'm on my own then.

    The book of love is long and boring No one can lift the darn thing
    It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
    But I
    I love it when you read to me
    And you
    You can read me anything
    The book of love has music in it
    In fact that's where music comes from
    Some of it is just transcendental
    Some of it is just really dumb
    But I
    I love it when you sing to me
    And you
    You can sing me anything
    The book of love is long and boring
    And written very long ago
    It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
    And things we're all too young to know
    But I
    I love it when you give me things
    And you
    You ought to give me wedding rings
    And I
    I love it when you give me things
    And you
    You ought to give me wedding rings
    And I
    I love it when you give me things
    And you
    You ought to give me wedding rings
    You ought to give me wedding rings

    Today, after 13 years of war, we, as one person, stand victorious.
     
    Our continuous efforts, strategic thinking, endurance, persistance (and superior firepower) brought us this success.
     
    We may have lost comrades and friends along the way and we honour the fallen with laughter and shouts of joy.
     
    For today, we have beaten Al Gebra and all it's Biological, Chemical and Physical Warfare. We stood up to the religion and philosophy of our enemy, we mastered their Art and music and their language and assimilated it into our one mind, and in this final campaing over the last month, no matter how hard it was, we dominated the educational system, finished school and mocked those who still aren't done yet with it.
     
    And I, as a veteran of this conflict, all I can say, all I can ask is: What comes before Part B?
     
    Part A(y)!
     
    Schools out I survived my last final!

    I was at the hospital again today to sign some forms, also to check the results of my examination for the army (They use the same to determine how healthy you are and what sort of work you can do) and that my personal info and CV are correct. 
    I also called the head-office of patient-care, to tell them on which station I want to be.
     
    So, now, from July 1st, I'll be working in the admission/Emergency room. ^^

    Ok. Maybe not, but it is interesting and fascinating how many parallels I see in his Values and mine.
    At least from what I saw in the featurette on the Dark Knight Blu-Ray disc ^^

    I am going on a weekend trip with my parents.
     
    We'll be in Belgium, so, unless I accidentally run across Schizo there, consider me gone from BZP for a couple of days.
     
    Seeya!

    When there is something wrong, when there is trouble, when you have an argument or a problem with a person you really care about, do you notice how all other things suddenly become minor and not as important as that one issue that needs to be resolved?
