Gooooood morning everybody!
Well yesterday was the day that
and meself finally were able to post our designs of the friendly contest we were having. The due date was actually the 31st of January, but I was unable to finish my work (ywander.deviantart.com/art/76-…) any earlier then last night.
I don't want to complain about my lack of modelling time, because it's such a beautiful day outside and I knew this was gonna happen anyway. Besides, it doens;t matter because even if hadn't won on such a technicality, I think it's obvious his design is the better (fav.me/d3b4v4q). I've always been jealous of his 'do not mess with this machine' style and talent for graphic design, not to mention his gift for lighting and presentation. I take my hat off to you, good sir!
Anyhoo, I'm going to take the SU'ing back a notch and focus on my writing. Don't worry though, I'm sure a new model will pop up every now and then.
Keep on truckin'!

No, not the movie...
Yello!
It's been a quiet while, since I've been mostly working behind the scenes on my writing projects. Nothing much to show visually, I'm afraid. But one thing I really am proud of to share with you guys is the spotlight that ~Marrekie (https://www.deviantart.com/marrekie) and myself received from the great guys over at www.vanishingpoint.biz.
It's a short piece on our collaborations as 3D artist. You can find it over here. I'd love to hear what you guys think of it!

Rebooting, please wait...
I guess it's about time I write something here, before it'll be a full year since the last post. I don't wanna come across all emo, so I'll keep it short.
The last two years have been very stressful for me and this takes its toll. There have been times where I was on the verge of throwing in the towel and crawl into bed never to come out… literally. From a creative point of view is the last year a complete write-off (no pun intended). At one point I was convinced that the creative part of my brain was broken and I was ready to give up on all my dreams of writing & designing. It was work in the office, work at home, vegetate in front of
It's over...
I’m reading Larry Niven’s Ringworld at the moment and in it one of the characters says “I did some writing once, but it turned out to be hard work, which was the last thing I expected.”
I’m positive it is Larry Niven himself saying that though the means of his character. I’m also positive that this goes for a lot of people who are not (aspiring) writers. It stands to reason that NaNoWriMo has a winning percentage of ‘only’ 21%. Which was a new record by the way. Only one in five people get the job done of 50.000 words in just one month.
Writing IS hard work and never more so than during NaNoWriMo. Thi
