God I miss watching Community...

But anyways, my checklist so far:

blog banner
blog logo
little tidbit on the sidebar
basic OCD formatting
blog side menu
possible other pages
further OCD formatting
social media platforms??

Getting the font I wanted for this blog's title banner, only to find out the file is corrupted...

*sigh* Back to the drawing board...

Progress, progress, progress?

2014 has finally come upon us and I've had the luxury of having a relaxing first weekend. Ok well, this is partially because I actually got sick around the last week of 2013, so I had no choice but to sleep as much as I can so that I can recover as soon as possible.

Anyway, this past week I've been working on shading more cards, so now I have about 40% of 54 cards shaded, I think :)

Without further ado, here are some screenshots of my work so far!

Slowly but Surely: A WIP

Saturday, 14 December 2013

So what have I been up to in the long absence of this blog? A number of things. But to start off, there's been a project I have been working on for quite some time. Given the restrictions on time that I have due to work, friends, family and my mood/energy on certain days, this has dragged on for quite awhile. But sooner or later, I will get this done and printed in all its' glory. My personal project as of late consists of a deck of cards, with each individual card uniquely illustrated based on its' number and suit.

The theme is based on the video game Borderlands by Gearbox and 2K. I chose this specific game because upon playing it for the first time, I was intrigued by the art style they used, and thoroughly enjoyed the humour that has been placed throughout the missions and environments in the game.

Adding flat colour
Shading added to a character
I do not own Borderlands so this is clearly out of my own personal experimentation, fulfillment and sense of challenge.

Oh Hey...

Currently in the progress of changing my blog layout and actually getting back to this whole blogging thing. Man I gotta actually step up my game... But at least there's some development so far :P
