A few months later...

I'm back to blogging. School's been going fine, thanks for asking. Now that I look through my photostream I've realized how little building I've been doing since school started. I'm going to attribute that to the shitty building I've been doing recently. That's okay though since I'm hoping to enter CCCVIII (Colossal Castle Contest 8) with a few entries this year. Actually, I want to build six entries before December 31st. Aside from some poorly built creations I have managed to build a few half-way decent creations. I made a vignette and it was entered in a contest. The results are suppose to be posted within the week, fingers crossed. I did some graphic design work. Later I made one helluva dio. When I got a little bored and uncreative I made two sketches. I also took a new self-portrait photo that I'm really, really pleased with. I think its even worth posting so here goes:


I builded NINJAS! In Japanese the title is 行く忍者. I've never built anything with a Japanese title before, so its hawt. :3 And finally one of my more popular and probably my favorite build to date was put out. I call it Armada Outpost... because.


An small outpost in the middle of nowhere with a small community. Originally inspired by 6244 Armada Sentry, but it took a turn in a different direction and I'm happy with it. I encourage you to view the Full Gallery on BrickShelf since I've been using my account recently and updating it probably more frequently then I do Flickr. I really like how this shot turned out. It's a kinda boring shot, but the colors were nice.

I also started a Redbubble, but it's not really working out yet since I'm still WAITING FOR THE FREAKING CONFIRMATION E-MAIL! Anyway once that comes... hopefully I can start a nice little Redbubble account. That will in turn lead to me spending a little less time on building and a little more time on photography and graphic design. I've got a few design ready for when I am finally able to open the account. I'll have more on that later.

To go along with more time spent on photography I'm also getting a new camera for Christmas. Yay! I'm not sure which on yet, so suggestions welcome. I've been looking at the Nikon Coolpix L110, and a few Canon Powershot models. The only problem is that I won't know which camera I want unless I was able to test it with my computer. I tested the Nikon camera I mentioned above and it worked well, but I couldn't use it with a computer. God Damnit!

Also bought the LEGO Castle Advent Calender and it rocks.
