Let’s Play!
After following Toegoff's brilliant LP adventures for quite a while and seeing my friend David starting his own LP channel I finally decided to jump onto the Let's Play bandwagon!
So far I'm enjoying it, even with technical troubles, some hair pulling to get Vegas to do my bidding with editing and my own shyness standing in the way. =)
I decided to go for Starcraft II as my first Let's Play seeing as I just got it and most of the other games I have on hand are already finished or I've gotten halfway through them thus elmininating them as LP material. So, go check out my Let's Play Starcraft II on Youtube! =D
I do plan on doing LPs of The Secret of Monkey Island (the special edition), Jade Empire and possibly Prince of Persia the Two Thrones at some point. So I have tons of things to do eventually.
At the moment though I've had to put my LPing on the backburner while I finish two commissioned watercolor pieces. They both need to be finished by the start of next week as I will be heading back to Sweden next thursday and need to bring them with me. One is fairly straightforward for me as it has mostly familiar elements and I already have ideas for it, but this first one is tricky. See, I've been commissioned to draw a Warhammer 40K Space Marine Battle Barge. And me having a loose (at best) grip on perspective and generally never drawing anything that's not organic makes this task quite a whole lot bigger than it sounds. =o
I'm closing in on finishing the sketching now at least, but it's been taking a lot longer than I anticipated, even with me being unfamiliar with the subject. Either way, it's quite a learning experience!
So for now, back to sketching, no time to waste!
Sketch dump
Sketch dump from this weekends doodling (and a couple of sketches from last weekend).
Featuring a wonky Tali, my male Shepard, some Ophelia-esque doodle, my One Winged Angel, a guest ninja by Remi, my cyberpunk character Lizzie and a random try at Remi's character Varg. And lots of random eyes. o.O
Apparently roleplaying sessions where I'm allowed to keep my sketchpad out are great for my creativity. That and replays through inspirational games! <3
1 hr pirate, yarr!
Poking my head back into Pirates of the Burning Sea got my fingers to itch. Thus, have a one hour speedpaint of my character Ekaterina de Sousa!
Oh, and if you by any chance play PotBS, feel free to come say hi, I'm a French free trader on Antigua. =)
Small update
I have at least two a bit bigger posts brewing that I'll see if I can get written sometime soon but for now I'll just put up two small things.
Firstly, Remi decided that I needed a new computer and while I'm still using a temporary placeholder hard drive I am now using said shiny new compy. This means that I've spent quite a lot of my time lately trying to finish up Dragon Age so I can sink my teeth into Mass Effect 2. Not quite done yet, but slowly getting there. Anyhow, more about that in a later post!
Secondly, I just turned around a little while ago to see this beautiful sunset. I think I'm liking Cork more and more, you can actually see the sky here!
