cyspixels:This, is awesome.tinycartridge:Robin Williams is a HUGE gaming fan. He comes into the downtown EB Games (video game store) all the time. I’ve never met him, but my friends who worked down there have and they say he’s a huge geek and buys games all the time, and is so much fun to talk to ABOUT games. How awesome is that? Also his beard. I just died of awesome. Robin Williams, please never die. <3333333New Ocarina of Time 3D commercial with Robin Williams and his daughter, Zelda — yes, she is named after the Nintendo series’ princess, so it’s all very appropriate! Wow, Robin Williams’ beard is impressive.

Over a month since my last proper post, oooh boy I’m bad at keeping this thing up to date. This time I suppose I do have an excuse though, having moved to a new country and all. Basically I spent roughly two and a half weeks in limbo, first week spent sleeping on the floor of a friend’s then getting to borrow a spare room at another friend’s place for the remaining week before our flight left.
Now though I’ve officially said good bye to Ireland (for now at least) and said hello to Norway. My first two weeks here has been rather eventful with lots of friendship and camraderie which was quite the change from the last year and a half where I’ve more or less only seen other people at training. So, a promising start!
My art’s been suffering a bit, not very surprising though. Even so I’ve been sketching a bit on a small (well, the size is small but the ambition is pretty big) personal project of mine and my fingers are itching for more. So it would seem my inspiration have made it through the ordeal of moving decently intact.
Even so, art is taking the backburner for a little while longer while I get back on track with my Let’s Play projects as I feel a bit bad for my subscribers. They haven’t heard anything from me for over a month either so I should get back to playing. Plus, I currently have a list of some 5 or 6 games waiting to be treated with the Let’s Play experience. And I REALLY want to get to Dragon Age 2 soon, if nothing else to be able to play it before I’ve been too showered in spoilers!
So planning to try to get some LPing done over the weekend (need to sort my hard drive first, having only 100GB free is a bit too little), hopefully finish off Dead Space and get started on Dragon Age 2.
THEN I can get back into arting properly! I foresee a flood of Dragon Age related fan art from my part, now that I for once have inspiration enough to produce something. >=]
Oh, and lastly I’ve set up a feed from my Tumblr as I do find some interesting things there that I reblog. Thus now you won’t have to check both places (I doubt anyone did, but still) as the things I find there will be automagically posted here as well!
I’m childishly happy about fiddling with this place, now I just need to kick myself into actually filling it with useful things. *cough*
We need more tangential learning!
I’ve been really busy the last couple of weeks as I started my new job on the 15th along with two commissions besides that. It’s rather nice to have a good reason to get up in the mornings again though, I do feel a lot more energetic overall thanks to not sleeping half the day. =)
Inbetween work stuff I’ve been trying to get some time with Dead Space to be able to finish it soon. I have both Assassin’s Creed 2 and Dead Space 2 lying around waiting for me to finish Dead Space and then Dragon Age 2 will be out on March 11th. So even if I wouldn’t have had a job I would’ve been hard pressed for time enough to finish LPing all that and now I only really have time for an hour every now and then. All in due time I suppose!
I have hit a rather annoying snag in my LPing right now though, I played for about an hour yesterday only to find out when I quit that Fraps hadn’t recorded anything and my oldest save was still far enough along to lose out on quite a big segment. So now I’m stuck either replaying everything up until where I last left off or have my viewers miss one part. I’m not too keen on either option, but we’ll see how I’ll solve that.
In other recording news, I started up a Livestream on a whim today. I didn’t announce it anywhere so I doubt anyone saw it while I was drawing, but it’s saved on the Livestream site for you to check out. I just recorded while I were working on sketches for one of the above mentioned commissions. And something different from me as well, a male character! =o
You can check out the video on my Livestream channel‘s archives. I’ll try to announce when I’ll be doing any future Livestreams, though there may be other impromtu streams just to test the waters before that, I need to figure out how the Procaster works properly.
I -may- open up another channel to stream games at some point if there’s any interest in that. I could for example stream games that I’m replaying as I won’t be LPing those. There will eventually be a video about that on my Youtube to gauge the interest.
