Check out this incredible Flickr set that my buddy Jason showed me.

This sort of thing makes me want to sketch ten times harder than I already do. That is all for now Blog.

Success!

Blog! Guess what?

-What?

I just got the tattoo final approved and the second half of my payment confirmed! Things are looking good.


On a totally random tangent. Here is a painting I did for my Book Illustration class. We had to illustrate a Guinness world record. I did "The most apples cut mid-air in a minute with a samurai sword" We where supposed to illustrate the record with out being to blunt and use some creativity. I did pretty well. This is probably one of my better instances of painting.



Not too shabby.

Sleep well Blog. I have been awake now for a little more than 18 hours and I need some sleep.

Ciao.

Tattoo finale & Fisher-Price.

Guten Tag Blog! I have finished the pegesus tattoo for my client (man I like saying that). Take a gander.



Things have progressed really well between the client and I. I have never done any freelance work before and while this was really really small scale it still counts. So I am stoked to skate over my first job! Sweet.

Any who, moving on.

I also added Fisher-Price/Mattel to my list of places to apply to. We shall see how it goes.

Ciao Blog; and play nice with the other blogs in the blogoshpere.

Trying to put my skills to use...

Hello Blog. I have spent the last two hours pouring over the internet gathering a list of companies I want to apply to for an internship or co-op. This is what I have so far:

Massive Black
Weta Workshops
The Jim Henson Company
IBC Digital
Bizarre Creation
Nihilistic Software, Inc.
Bungie
Digital Alchemy

Granted it doesn't look like a lot of companies, but it is a pretty great list so far. I have been rifling through Conceptart.org looking through their job listings. It has been very helpful. The RIT job website (which is where the school herds you) is too clunky to navigate easily, I will have to go back when I am more awake and give it another go.

On another topic. I finished my tattoo design. I am waiting for half of the payment from the client before they get the final product, as we agreed. I am very glad to finished with it. I will have to post a scan later. I am off to find another moment of partial employment Blog. Wish me luck!!
