Wow, it has been over a year since my last entry. It took a few minutes for me to even remember how to write in my journal, haha
Life has changed so much--I have changed so much.
Trying to figure out what I want in life, where I want to go, who I want to be. I don't even know where to begin, I can't recap over my whole year, so as for now, where I am currently at:
I am working fulltime at an italian resturant right now as a server. I will be taking classes this next semester at a community college, getting the basics out of the way, and hopefully soon I will be getting a job with this Animation company, as one of their 3d animators where I will mostly be taking blueprints and turning them into 3d tour models. A good start I think, to be getting paid for all the training I need. From there im hoping to finish my last two years off at some art school. But we shall see. I have also been doing a lot with music, playing guitar, piano and drums, so I may take a turn that way. Not quite sure at this point.
About 5 months ago, for my birthday, my girlfriend had bought me all these art supplies-- which I have never used before. blending stumps, good paper, special pencils, all kinds of stuff and this awesome binder to put it all in. I hadnt drawn anything in quite awhile, but that night i spent over 6 hours on this drawing. I was determined to make it the best piece of art I have ever done--It was amazing. I spent all the next day working on it. It blew everything I have ever done out of the water. I was so proud of it, that night I went to the movies with my gf and afterwards showed her what I had done so far, she loved it, ( she is an awesome artist too. lot better than me) I put the binder on top of my car and said bye to her and what not, and then drove off... i realized I had left the binder on top of my car, so I quickly turned back around to where I had parked my car and couldnt find it anywhere, And retraced all my steps.. But someone had taken it. I called all the sops near by asking if anyone turned it in or anything, but no one had. I couldnt believe I had been so stupid, and was so mad that someone had just taken it so quickly. I was so depressed, I couldnt get myself to draw anything after that, and I knew I coudn't redraw the one I had been working on. So I completely abandoned working on my art... up intill this last month, where I drew a picture for my friend. Its not nearly as good as the one I had been working on but still it had been an improvement. And So I have decided to start up again, and I need to go out and buy some materials, btw any suggestions would be awesome.
Anywho for the few, if any people that read my journal there is a little bit of whats been going on with me, and a few of my plans. Fill free to comment I love talking to you.

P.s I should deff update my Dev Id I think i was like 14 in that picture??

i had just skimmed through it real quick cause didn't have time to read, but wanted to fav it so didn't forget so ill hopefully read it tomorrow or so. Um whate "time period" is it in, I saw one name, master Zhar, or something like that. . . is that from Kotor??

the 100 picture challenge!!! [link]
:iconeliatra:
That's right. It's actually set maybe 10-15 years pre-Kotor, and doesn't really involve any of the Kotor characters (except brief NPC cameos) but I like that time period because it gives me more freedom history-wise than something around the time of the movies. Past that I pretty much just started with my characters and used my imagination from there. ;)

Can't wait to hear what you think!
