Hrist's Coat I

Ok, time to revive this project! Still not 100% committed to this though, I have I feeling once I actually start, I won't be able to stop till I see it through. Studying the design for this coat, it looks like it's gonna be a royal pain in the tush. Could be a lot of fun though. Minus all the 'parts' I have to model for the coat. Quite a few custom emblems and buttons that go on this thing.

Some of the buttons I have to model out.


I might also rescale Hrists helmet a bit, and print out a mock liner template to see how well a re-sized version will be. I might be able to get away with not having to configure to much.... hopefully...

Lidia VN Project II


Two posts, two days in a row! Like old times! Well, not quite, but I got a little addicted on this project and sacrificed a few hours of precious sleep time in order to complete this way ahead of schedule... :3 haha-ha! Yes, that's the sound of a completely delirious laugh. Phew, I did want to expand on this project a bit, by making 2-3 shots of the 3D rendering I made for the back-plate. I wanted to include Hrist in this too. but that'll have to wait for another project/time, unless I do expand on this one.


I also played around a bit with some dialog boxes and other useless junk. Does this mean a new photo story brewing in the works? Stormy weather + a day off from work? Unlikely to happen for a while... But it's not out of the cards yet!

I do need to create my own chat/dialog box someday, hmmm maybe that'll be a easy side project I can do that shouldn't be to time consuming. :S

Till next time!

Lidia VN Project I


Finally some time to work on my project I've been putting off for a while. I decided to veer a way from my original idea a bit. Going to test out a silly idea I had for my next photo story using a visual novel approach.
Should have the final posted in a day or so. :)

Arizona Bike Week 2016

Another great year! This year, was one of the best I've had in a long time. Could it have been due to the amazing weather? Probably! Haha! The events seemed really small this year however, and the booths were more packed in. It just didn't seem as big this year as in years prior at West World.

Where the fun and experience was slightly lacking at West World, the event rides sure made up for it! Friday was the annual charity ride I do, and wow what a day, the weather was just perfect! On my way through Pine, we got hit by a hail storm, followed by some of the heaviest and biggest rain drops I'd ever seen. Upon arriving at Strawberry, Rose looked like a hot mess, muddied out and wet. I'm sure I looked no better. So much fun though. This year I spiced it up and broke off from the main group to do my own photo thing, and even managed to get in some hiking too. I really needed the time to relax. Don't think I'll be having any more days off for quite a while so making the best of what time I had, sure was priority. Haha.


I'll probably post some photos in a week or so, need to find time to sort through over 1000 photos.


Till next time! :D
