WOW, my last blog was in august....and now its almost november.

erm....hi again..

the main reason i thought of blogging today was to comment on the work i did today.I've been doing game graphics since i was about 15 or 16, doing spaceships and aliens , animals, drawing phoneboxes or cars , wrestlers, but today was a first....

I had to draw someone wetting themselves....the character stands there, and a puddle develops around their feet..At one point i drew the character looking down, shrugging his/her shoulders, and even had the clothing getting a little darker around the feet (but i thought this was a little too much)..

ive also recently drawn a character sitting on the toilet (with a pixelated block covering the character)..it looked a little dodgy for a while, but it got sorted in the end.

its quite good to do something new, many games are just rehashes of old ideas with shiny new textures or more polygons...another warehouse, road,car,plane,gun or something, ...I think this set of animation has been the highlight of this current project (the rest of it has been fairly straight forward).


apart from that, recently ive been to the uk breakdancing chapionships thingy in brixton, which was really good, some amazing acrobatics that is far beyond anything like windmill and back spin..i didnt take part, im a bit old for all that ....

and...ive been working lots...hopefully its nearly done and things will settle down again....i hope to get to visit tokyo this year, and maybe hong kong...or even somewhere new!!.

well, time to go (i'm still at work, its 21:20 ) , i need to sort out the films to see at the london film festival (i went to raindance film festival a few weeks ago and saw "the gingerbread man" and a film "escavating taylor mead" which was really good...unlikely to hit a cinema "near you" which is a shame.


i'll try and blog a bit more too.
