I've never actually played Assassins creed (accept on iphone) but its influence is powerful and inspiring. The Concept behind it seems to capture what many steampunks find kool about historical fantasy. Assassins Creed Two centres on Venice in the Renaissance period of 16th Century and everything thats awesome about that time.On Top of this they have done a live action movie to accompany the

Last week i got a small package in the post. Upon opening it i discovered a rather spiffing artwork book about Where the Wild Things are. Apparently i won it in some competition i had unintentionally taken part in. Well anyway it was a surprise to say the least and served only to excite me more for the film which is out December 9th in the UK.Mean while all my american friends are telling me that

Was my Birthday not long ago and although the actual Birthday itself was a rather boring affair i did get Birthday messages from those who care, thanks everyone :).I got new Scarf, Gloves, a shirt, a new bag, and my sister got me a spiffing braclet thingy with brass bits on it, nice!. On wednesday i went out to a chinese place and had a great meal, mmmm scollops. On the Saturday i joined my young

I did not do anything much for Hallows Eve this year. I of course carved a pumpkin for my mum to stick outside her door for the trick or treaters, of which there was twice as many than previous year.

Im all aching from a most excellent last LARP event of the year. It feels like the year went rather quick. This year was the end of a cycle, with Balor defeated the High King sacrificed, the thrown empty for the first time in 7 years. It's just another example for which 2009 represents a year of change for me. Even though Samhain is not quite yet, although who knows exactly when it's supposed to

Its not long now. i've been following the production of this film for years and now its just over a month to go. Was frustrated and annoyed that they have decided against a world wide simultaneous release on the 16th of october. Instead us UK people will have to wait until December the 10th. Im stupidly excited about this film, and so overwhelmingly worried it'll be shit. To many times have i

Getting back into the old creative spirit has been fun. Jon introduced me to a couple of websites where you can pitch for prizes. 99Designs is the one i decided to try out first. You choose from a list of 'contests' then create a design and submit in the hope your design is picked as the winner and you get the prize money.Sounds easy enough, except there is a lot of things to take into account.1.

Been running about a lot last week. After recovering from some strange allergy i went to Bristol to meet up with Jon. We managed to pack in a lot including seeing Cloudy with a chance of meatballs...Was a fun psychedelic mash of ridiculous ideas enjoyed in eye popping 3D. The man eating chicken did freak me out a bit.We also eat and drank lots, and visited the Arnolfini Modern Art Exhibits which

Well i guess that depends on who they mean by 'the rest of us'. For years i've cried for someone to create a simple drag drop click and poke app that would allow you to build upon the basic gaming templates of yesteryear. I got my hands on Sawblades Power Gamefactory that allowed users to change assets on a scrolling shootem up. This was a kool bit of software, simple idea, but lacked the

BAD IDEA, Jay threw up in the night and i... well... i dont wonna talk about that.We did manage to watch the most shit film i have ever bought, Mega Shark VS Giant Octopus.

I discovered today that my fave band RESONATE from exmouth has decided its time to move on. But unlike other bands who split up and go separate ways Ed, Matt and Alex have decided to take a step back, recharge, repackage and transform into something more solid. Hey, We feel the time has come for us to move on from being 'Resonate'. There are a number of different reasons, mainly because we have

Ok here are two new quick colour tests. These are all about how best to do backgrounds. Useing digital painting techniques ihope to do backgrounds that look some what painted rather than drawn. To make the backgrounds seem more dynamic i think i need to experiment more with different brush types in photoshop.This is Kailem, a gypsy boy sent on a great mission. He is being chased by 'The Beast'

This has been doing the rounds lately, its from the soundtrack of where the wild things are and gives an idea what the music might be like. It's by Karen'O who is from the Yeah Yeahs, apparently she used to date Spike Jonze. Anyway Check out the track, it SHOUTS Indie movie :-p

Heres another test for my next comic book. This time i introduce Cadet Rose, a young Sky Commando who is cut off from the rest of his team during a huge Airship battle.Im trying an idea of doing the main foreground in Ink and leaving the background stuff in pencil. Also the colouring also is to be more vivid for foreground, and pastel for background, though at this stage im not yet sure wether to

Well im almost ready to start on my new comic book, just gotta get everything else in place. Will be doing a short prologue story in order to see how things will work with online comic, iphone app and print......In the meantime this is a test of one of the main characters, this is Ellison Scott Bailey the only character who will be from our world.

Technically thats not true. With my parents gone for 2 weeks, i was hardly on my own. My London friend came down to stay a few days and i went to exeter to hang out with the lads from Dumnonni.Went for a walk to Appledore with Jon only to find a carnival in full swing. With the busses not running during that time, we had to walk to Northam where we got a bus home. Finished that day off with an

Must have been about 4 years ago that i first decided to try out a graphics tablet. I bought a bluetooth Graphite from Wacom and for the first 2 weeks using a pen on a plastic square felt strange. I had been using a mouse to create digital art since i was 12 and using a graphics tablet meant learning a new way of thinking. It did not take long though for the benefits of a graphics tablet to

Today i woke expecting to post a small vid from comic con of Max Records (lays max in new film) telling what Maurice Sendak told him at his birthday last week. But to my surprise and excitement a brand new TRAILER for the film has been released and in it we see Max say the immortal words "LET THE WILD RUMPASS START!" so awesome! watch it.......So here also is the clip from comic con, not as

While in Exeter i met up with Wills, jack, Meggan and Ronan. Roney had been allowed out of the house by his girlfriend and used the time to find New Shoes. Will got tired as we walked around all the shoe shops, his newly made neko tail drooping. Ronan finally settled on a pair of spiffing pastel red trainers which had nothing to do with me saying they looked kool.We went to Pizza Express, but

I've known for some time now that many digital painters get over excited about brushes in Photoshop. In all my years of using photoshop, i've never gotten round to perfecting brush usage for doing illustrations. Today however i finally started to dabble in the brushes and created a picture different in colour to my past work. it's not THAT much different but it's a start.The concept for the image

Ok so October is going to be a mad month for me. I shall spreading the gospel of Where the wild things are. Not only will i be going to see the film probably more than once with a number of good friends, but there will also be a game out for the wii and other formats as is standard for kids films these days.Here is a video of said video game tie in. So far it looks nice and simple and fun which

Yesterday went to Exeter with some of the Crew. Most are upset at the cancellation of the Big Green Gathering due to excessive red tape which they hoped to go to this weekend. So a visit to the cinema to watch a film in 3D was in order to raise spirits.Was a rather spiffing film and we got to keep the glasses. Each Ice Age film seems to stand well on it's own, i cant really decide which i like

Back in the field outside Hatherliegh hopeing the rain would hold off, and it did. Saturday saw a blistering hot day at Dumnonni. Both nights had clear skis by the camp fire. It's the one place i can see the milkyway belt streak across the sky.The usual bunch was there and i was surprised to see Crofty as a player again. Everyone was just back from holidays in various countries except Pippin who

Jay invited me over two weeks ago. Brought a couple DVD's to watch and the Camera to film his ever improving Drumming skills. He says seeing the videos allows him to see where improvements can be made in his skills. I'm still editing the videos so expect to see some more of Jays amazing drumming talents soon.Something else that took me by surprise was his choice of not drinking alcohol. Instead i
