New Post...WooHoo!

So I just posted my concept for the Little Big Planet 2 - Sack Boys challenge that is going on over at Gameartisans.org and I thought it would be cool if I posted some of my work here as well:


This is a Sack Boy version of Geralt from the game The Witcher made by Atari and CDProjeckt. After surfing the web for about 15 minutes I realized that almost anyone that could be made into a Sack Boy had pretty much been done, but then I remembered this guy from a bunch of trailers and screen shots my brother Corey sent me a while back (I have never played the game but he's a pretty Bad@$$ lookin' dude and the game looks really pretty haha!). I am terrible at reaching the deadlines for these contests since there is pretty small incentive to win and I ain't gettin' paid for it haha! You really just get bragging rights if you win and it's a great way to show off your work and get exposure as an artist.

Well I am pretty happy that I managed to post something up within a reasonable time frame since my last blog so let's see if I can keep this up, my goal is at least 2 art-related posts a month at the very least! Stay tuned for a 3d version of this guy sometime before the end of the month.

How about a quote for the day?

"Life's not about waiting for the storms to pass...It's about learning to dance in the rain." ~ Vivian Greene

I've noticed some people spend WAY too much time waiting for that opportune moment to take action. If there is something that you want to do or something that you want to pursue why wait until the "perfect" moment. Take action now! It might not be there tomorrow and then you'll wish you would have done it sooner.

First post of the new year...

So in honor of typical New year's tradition I am trying something new. I am going to attempt a blog and hopefully keep it going all year long. I intend on posting up Art, photos of family and events, and my own usual ramblings (most likely relating to food or video games). Blogger makes setting up sites like these pretty easy so I am already ahead of the game. It should be fun. Lets start with some art from last year just so i have something up here (prove that I am serious!).
