Oh jeez, why have I not updated? I am quite the bad thread holder. :blush:
I dunno if I stood out much at the School of Design, but if you saw a teenager who wore a suit vest over top of a striped dark-grey shirt with rolled-up sleeves or just a cool blazer-jacket type thing, that would've been me. I wore a cool cap-like black hat during the wintertime. Come to think of it, I HAD to stand out. Everyone else just wore tee-shirts and affordable clothing all the time, and here I am wearing my fanciest clothes like a prep! :V Also, I was a loudmouth of insane proportions at times, so if you did encounter me, you probably kept your distance for your own safety.
ALRIGHT, now for some actual content, because if you did meander into this thread, you'll at least want to see some cute little thumbnails or links to nice music bits or something!
So you've seen all these little concept sketches and all that fun stuff about "Oh hey it's some original characters for some original story" from me. If you haven't already guessed, I'm pretty serious about this series, despite never getting written or legit drawn work out in the open for the last year or so.
I probably could be on chapter 16 or up if I actually worked on the writing... So now what I've done with that fun stuff is put it together in a more structured format in a book actually focused on fleshing out how the characters look, some of their physical statistics, and stuff that'd make them into half-decent fighting game characters if I was even half the game programmer I needed to be for that sort of deal. If you couldn't make heads or tails of the stuff I posted before, then hopefully this'll make more sense. HOPEFULLY.
So yeah, you saw that attempt at a landscape there. Pretty mediocre, right? That's what happens when you free-hand straight ledges, but I digress, since this is just a segway. While I was in the Art and Design Foundation program, I did some photography work and found that while my portraits were pretty mediocre, my landscapes seemed to please me greatly. I mean, I'm not saying they're good or amazing or anything like that, because I can't have an ego for the life of me, but considering I didn't like photography before that course, I was rather pleased by my ability to take landscape photos. I'm not gonna post them here since this thread is more of a drawing/digital/moosic sort of thread, but I will have them uploaded on my Photobucket so that people actually interested can take a look.
I also would post some more music as an apology for being this bloody late, but the only new thing I have is my own little remix of EMIYA and some completely incomplete work. It's not that good of an EMIYA remix, because if I tried to make something out of gold like that, it'd just be bronze by the end of it, but I might upload it later just because I myself enjoyed toying with things and stuff to make a silly remix that probably steered a bit too far off course.
By the way, from you musical types that have composed plenty of tracks before, you probably know what makes a rhythm track work well, so is it alright if I ask that you share your knowledge in the ways of the drum beats?
