Hey all!
First I would like to say sorry for the inactivity for the past year. Me having to work full-time as well as studying just doesn't allow the spare time to do all that I want.
To sum up all I have done though is pretty much pub work and Train2Game assignments. Unfortunatley I haven't drawn much as I wanted, I kinda found out during all this that I can't balance my time well still recently I've made some progress. Still need to get some proper finished pics done though instead of just sketches. I really want to show people that I can do a decent piece of art.
Any way the real reason for the new update is to show my progress with a charity event me and my brother decided to enter. The organisation is called "Classic Tours" and we decided to cycle from London to Paris, with 50 other people, for our chosen charity "Save the Children".
All packed and ready to go, just need to get our start point and head out in about 13 hours.
Wish us luck!
p.s if you would to support us on this event there is a justgiving.com app on the side you can use.

Animex 2010
One of the greatest computer games and animation event is happening this week in Middlesbrough, Animex 2010. Shame I couldn't get my ticket to see the talks, since like every year there were some awesome people attending doing talks.
In my opinon this event is a very important one for anyone interested in the games and animation industry since you actually get to meet the guys and gals responsible in developing them. Discussing the process and planning, or give you advice on how to get in to the industry. Pretty much networking is the key in this event and its awesome that people are given this chance.
Although i didn't manage to attend the talks =[.... i did however get into a workshop which takes place usually on Wednesday. Last year I done a workshop in Creative Vistualisation, with Ken Wong from Spicy Horse, which was pretty cool. Even though these workshop are only a day long, it really does help you grasp a good idea in the workflow and thought process you need to develop yourself as a artist.
And well this year I did a much needed Crash Course in Digital Art with Udon's Jim Zubkavich, a very awesome guy. Really helped me build a much need self-confidence with the software and just showed me a very effective workflow that can be efficent when used as a commercial artist.
It involved blobs... lots of blobs... =P nah thats a joke. He also helped people with their portfollio, since mine is pretty much non-exsistent I felt really have more confidence in the art i do and show them not hide them in my head...
All in all it was a very awesome day and had a great time.
