So ... do you like ... stuff?

Hello, all! Long time no see. I beg forgiveness; I moved. I'm down near Austin now, attempting to get into video game development. I haven't had so much as a nibble, although someone from Certain Affinity Games told me I had a nice portfolio, despite the fact that they have no positions open. I'll take what I can get, I s'pose. I also have no Internetz, le sob, because there's pretty much no service in a town with a population of 1410. Unless you have money, and I don't, so ...
The rabbit guy is to be my second published illustration of my career. I was definitely thinking Usagi Yojimbo when I was allowed to take my pick of animal templates to do. It's for a roleplaying game called Shard, to be released March 2008 or thereabouts. All the "people" in the world are animal people. (I currently forget the game term for them.)

Turtle power!

Hey guys, my Slash art is now posted on the TMNT site. It's a weekly contest, so stuff changes all the time, and, as you'll see, they pretty much accept anything. BUT, the cool thing is, I'll get a signed TMNT comic from one of the creators. A small victory, but one that I'll graciously take. :)

Lookee!

Back when Miguel first posted his art for WoW designs with J!NX, I found their website and signed up for the newsletter. Just today, I was killing time and found this little gem. Go Mike!
