FYI, stars are a bitch to draw.
Think I'll start with the colour from here. Dunno really what kind of coulours I'll use for the dragon... The chinese horoscope-thingie says my lucky colours are black (yeah, I know, but it says so) gold (kickass), and green (wtf?). With the background I've chosen, and intend to keep, I can't make a black dragon. green is meh, but I'll use gold for the eyes.
I might have to revisit the highlights on the head, right now the wing drags much attention away from it.
Also, it turned quite humanoid at some point... but me likes it!

I desperatly need to update here. Not only to work against the habit of not posting, but because I want to. Now I'm sick, so small updates are better.
"Draw a coloured 2D image representing your European star sign or Chinese year sign"



Of course, I'm not done yet, but you get the picture. Needs to be done by friday.
Oh, and I'm in England now.

Already I have found someone asking "What's the greatest game of the decade?!"
My reply is simple:
Portal
In a decade of gaming ruled by the physics-engines, stands a small, well written, well excecuted, well F**KING TESTED game that created more hype and viral fallout than much else that have spawned these last 10 years. All this was achieved WITHOUT A SINGLE QUICK-TIME EVENT.
True, we still have a good 3 months left (if you start with 2k) before the celtic calendar throws in the towel.
And there have been much good gaming to be had in my lifetime, but in the end, each and every one of us will have some memories for what made each game awesome. My most awesome gaming experience since Zelda:OoT, is Portal. There will be a lot back and forth what is the greatest game of the decade. Morrowind and Oblivion, Rome: Total War, Halo, Super Mario Galaxy, BioShock, WarCraft3, Zelda: Twilight Princess, GTA VI and NeverwinterNights. There are a lot of fantastic games, of different genres, of different times, themes and styles.
I will live to be very old, without forgetting any one of these great games. But I will still twitch a little, whenever I see a birthday cake...

I've bearly put pen to paper the past weeks -_-' shame on me!
I was at GranittRock on friday, it was awesome. Saw Satyricon, or most of them anyways. I never saw the drummer, he was well hidden behind the smokemachine (I think I saw a cymbal move at some point). Also heard some happy-techno-rock-thingie. It was nice, though a bit unrefined. But the reason my girlfriend pull me with her (I'm not really a stand-in-a-shouting-crowd person), was Kaizers Orchestra. Who knew gipsy-rock could be so awesome? Also, dude in gassmask playing piano praying-mantis style was fun.
I can't imagine how horrible it must be to play through a show with that over your head, but it looked cool. I made a mess of the colour, and I had too much fun with my PS tools, but at least I did something. :)
I recomend listening to some of their music. They're a fantastic live-band, but their songs are a lot of fun as recordings too. And like most bands, the lyrics are a bit more comprehensible without the shouting crowd surrounding you.
Det står et bord midt på golvet
på bordet en revolver
på den står det Made in HongKong

so yeah, I moved the two buildings in the background, and where the main characters are sitting on the fountain/statue. you can't see everything here yet, but I think it'll be good.
The statue wing (yes, it's a bitch to draw, and I need some of a second one) takes a lot of focus now. But I'm gonna lower the contrast a bit on it before I start colouring and shading (dear god, what have I've gotten myself into), and the colour will be gray. So the end result shouldn't be as chaotic and absorbing as it is now. I hope it will pull the eye from the almost empty sky in the finnished result, though. And the characters should be framed nice under both statue and church.
Large plans, we'll see if anything turns out the way I hope. I think it's worth a shot.
