Blargh April 30, 2007

So, a lot of things have happened. The jist of it is as follows:

While I’m once again unsure of how college might go, my summer looks to be more free than normal. I didn’t get accepted into the SoC, but that doesn’t keep me from learning how to code for blender anyhow. I simply love that program too much, and it keeps deciding to compile from cvs on my mac. Who can say no to that? I mean, when something compiles frequently, you just have to suddenly start tweaking a little here and there with it.

Anyways, one fellow is going to be coding an update to the renderer. I want to see if I can help out, and also I’ll just sit back and wait for a better opportunity to do my brdf/SSS ray-tracing shader. I really need to get a life, but so help me, I still have no one around in the summer, so I pretty much do stuff like this or die of boredom.

So yeah. I’m currently messing around with blender here and there and actually am still working on that dragon animation project. Perhaps I’ll post more progress pictures here as they come up. This year still has a lot of kick left in it, but yeah… wow… currently the world has regarded me as a hopeless wreck (speaking of my GPA, people’s expressions at my visions of what I’ll do in the future, and generally how I’m trying to get into neuroscience). Wonderful. And you know what, I find myself starting to agree in a laughing, humoring manner. This provides me with the most awkward introspect on my career ever. That is, I believe it’s worse than what most other people who have had such trouble could have ever felt.

Oh well. I sure am having fun. At the cost of respect that really has been flaky to begin with.

busy busy February 8, 2007

for those very small portions of people who actually do consider me someone they prefer to track… uh, I’ll at least post here that I’m taking 19 credits this semester, and that has put a huge damper on all my activities. I’ll try to post a few more WIP’s here, but I really want to finish a huge load of stuff and then post a nice big gob of joy. Back to work for me (and opengl has been going well for me… I might be learning GLSL soon)

Back to funland March 31, 2006

So yeah. More sketching and painting. I’m buying Art Rage, so expect to see a bunch of fun things along the line of that soon.

Work work work March 22, 2006

Okay then. I will definitely need to put up the hiatus stamp for a week and a half. Expect that Friday next week I should be back on track. Let’s just say I have a LOT of work to do. A lot a lot. And a lot.

Internin’ again March 19, 2006

SweeeT! I gots muh internship. It’ll prolly involve some crazy computer science and neuroscience jazz.

ALSO! Me getting money = world devestation + me buying a mac dual core

I totally love the idea of getting a dual core and doing my music and whatnot on it. Then hopefully I’ll get nix on it for the perfect programming nuttiness environment.

Sorry tho, folks. I sure to have a lot to do this week upcoming. I may still yet have to put off sketches. BE SURE that I willllll do dem. It just takes a while or two (too? to? tu?)

Painting notes, composing numbers, and juggling beliefs March 13, 2006

Oy… I guess I should go ahead and just say that I’m going through a strange phase of trying to give myself new tools to annihilate my academic foes in the learning world.

bah… February 7, 2006

haitus stamp, go.

I’ll be putting this place to rest while I deal with exams for this month (about five or so). That said, my drawing is a constant way of rest and relief, so I’m sure I’ll have something to show of it. OH! and I’ll be scanning stuff into devart pretty soon. I’ll keep ya’ll posted… must prrrrogram… lots… now.

Back to college January 9, 2006

I’m back… now I’ll definitely be back in to the habit. Be prepared… I’ll try to go slow, but I may post several sketches at once. I sketch a ton. Just a word of warning. If I skip a day, it’s probably because I’m working on older stuff and sketches, and probably for every 5 skipped days, I’ll send out a really nicely polished sketch (yes… still sketchy. I make a rule now that it has to be worked on for about 7 days or more and really have some sort of value/inspirational factor in others… or at least I have to think it does… in order for it to be considered more than a sketch)

That said, this week will be my hectic first week… I might be switching around a lot of classes, so expect updates to still be a little infrequent. I’m sorry, but I’ll mostly post my black and white stuff here. Sorry.

*goes back to work*

Finals time December 10, 2005

Finals next week. Here’s a revisiting of a sketch I did in class… only this was solely made in Gimp. It depicts how I feel about finals, but heck, it’s also just illustrating my need of relief. It’ll come soon enough as only a week and my classes will finish.

Research a-comin’ November 29, 2005

Grrr. Well, while I don’t have any sketches (dang) I do have some news.

I’m sending in my McNair Scholars application on Wed. What the heck is that, you ask? Boiled down, it means I can do research while being an undergrad. Which rules. Because I’ll get published (assuming I don’t fart around too much… which is a big assumption).

That all said, this also goes to imply that I’ve been too busy today with pulling my hair out to draw anything (shucks). Well, No worries, folks. I’ll be back to sketchidi-doo-goodness soon enough. I really guess there aren’t that many folks, but heck, I’m sure at least one person is entertained *cough*ME*cough*

Have a good one, and I’m pretty much ready to do my review on paint.net (though it isn’t pretty, it’s still lovable). You don’t have to stay tuned, but if you do, I might draw you a cookie
