What's up guys, JC back around and having a break for a day from work well its gona be 2orrow. I'm not working till later today.
So I'm sure you guys are wondering whats going on with me. Why haven't I really submitted any new art and why I haven't been commenting much theses days. Well as some of you already know, I'm back in school but I'm in a trade school now in the Graphic Arts program. It's pretty exiting, we're learning things that we didn't realize what Graphic Design is all about and what tricks they use to catch your eye to their ads and art work. I'm gona share that stuff with you when I'm done the course. I will post some different kind of art work, more like graphic arts a bit and try to put that in my drawings. Also now I am exposed to Photoshop everyday (plus illustrator and gona be learning flash very soon!) I think I will bring my scanned drawings over and actually get back to the artwork. I've been soooo busy. School work and sleep then repeat.

Only thing that it has stopped me was a bit of an art block and thinking about what I am gona do with my future kinda of thing. You know I always wana improve my art work right? But I forget what my true dream job which is 3D animation and modeling but I dont wana just create games or movies, I wana make my ''OWN'' games and movies. Start a company. And I really had this awesome idea to use Kane as a game which could be really kool. I wont go too much into detail, ofcours I want my ideas to myself and not others to take them from me.

But apart for the long term project, I am actually almost done with the test comic, I will post the drafting of the test and see how its gona come about. It's pretty jokes and kool cause I'm using sonic fan characters to act out in Max Payne. Well I g2g, take care guys and you will see my new stuf. Promise

And 3rd and not least! by
