Day 134

Well hello there friends.

Okay okay, so I've been a little slack with the old blog recently. I'm currently debating what to get more into again, back to the old drawing board for this years resolution, or get back into my painting, which I miss a lot!

Also, I think this blog could be used for much much more, I do want to give something back. It's just working out exactly what to say, that isn't said a 1000 times already on other blogs. But be sure, I am thinking about it, and for the time being, i'm collecting many interesting pins for your convenience

If you have any you think I should add, please add them below in the comments, and i'll be sure to pin them!

Update!:

Just got back from seeing Brave and got all inspired, so picked up the Brave book and doodled some drawings from it. I think I'd like to concentrate on animal stuff for a while, so much scope.

Day 96

Here is my March 11 second club! about 8 hours left to vote now :) - there's some great entries, and 390 of them! It took me about 50 hours to complete. One of my friends/colleagues, Richard Coley, helped me render it. *update! I got 58th place out of 390, so chuffed! Very proud, on to the new clip now!*

 I've just worked out I can embed pins into my blog! So here's my first tester one - Subzin, found through an animation group on facebook. You can type in a word to help you find quotes from movies and tv series'.

Day 65

Crumbs, this year is flying by!

So I'm going to attempt this month's 11 second club, with a tight schedule and other things on the go. But I really want to implement my speedy work flow I have to use for commercials at home! It may fail, but it may work! Who knows :)

In the mean time i've added some more pins to my board

There's a great site I found via On Animation with loads of articles here
