Dane lives alone. He seldom smiles, talks little, and trusts even less.

Animation

Been too lazy to update this blog, but I couldn't get Gifs to work on facebook so here it is.

Was really inspired after talking to one of my favorite 2D animators of all time so I want to try and make some sprite animations for my DnD character.

Update: refined versions.  Bottom version has 2 added frames per friend's suggestion.

League-Themed Gnomon Figure Session

That was so much fun :)

RPG speedie with titanic monster

It took almost too long to be a speed painting, but I did start out wanting it to be a quickie so... ehhh it's loose so it counts as a speed painting, to me :P

Somewhere between 3-4 hrs.

My Godville Toon

Over the break, I remembered that I used to "play" a web game called Godville, as much as one can ever play Godville... a "zero action RPG". During the 3 years of my absence, my hero actually picked up some really nifty equipments. Here's a snap shot of her in her fully geared glory before I abandon her into oblivion again :P

 Her equipment list:
Weapon: Iron Fist +21
Shield: Shield of the SWAT King +19
Head: Crystal Diadem +22
Body: Metal Bikini +21
Arms: Ducttape Bracers +19
Legs: Futility Kilt +22
Talisman: Lucky Loop +19

Shadowfire sketch 1

Some time ago I wrote a short fiction, the title of which I shall clumsily translate into "shadowfire".

Meet Galmu the Keeper.  Embittered by his brother's death, the once quiet and gentle Galmu now defends and leads his people, bidding for the time of vengeance.

Kari portrait study

In honor of Kari, Grant, and Tori leaving Mythbusters, one of my favorite TV shows.  I'm not usually into celebrities or stars, but I see her as a great role model in perfectly treading the balance between being a "normal girl" and a badass geek who blows stuff up.  More people like her is what we need in terms of breaking the gender-role assumptions.
