I am on a magazine cover


Anybody who is anybody has a magazine with their picture on the cover. Look at Oprah. She's on her magazine cover all the time. I have become anybody. My face is on this cover. I know it's glamorous, you can all be jealous.

New Business Idea

I have a new business idea. A fire factory. Think of it. I will be the main source for anyone who needs fire. I will manufacture it and sell it at a reasonable price. All I really need to invest in are things like matches... maybe a building... all of the wood I can collect in the forests... I think this may be one of my best ideas yet.

2018 is coming.

Ok, so the new Terminator film is set in 2018. It takes place after a nuclear holocaust and the robots have taken over. In Back to the Future 2, they travel to 2015 where there are flying cars and hoverboards. Right now, it's 2009. This means that there are only a few years left (i can;t do the math to find out exactly) until we get flying cars, hoverboards, robot overlords and a nuclear holocaust. I'm not a scientist, I can't invent these things. It is up to the smart people of the world to get this thing going, because we don't have a lot of time left, hopefully.

Camera Screensaver


So, I got a new phone this week, and it's pretty cool. Not only does it take better pictures (2 megapixels), but I can copy Flash files onto it and set them as my screen saver or background. It's awesome. I have lived with my other phone for too long. So, anyway, I made a little flash animation and set it as my screen saver. Here is a screen shot of it.

New 3D render for work.


Apparently there is going to be some sort of trade show, so i was asked to do a mock-up of the booth in 3D to get a feel for how it will look. Here is the render of that. Turns out this configuration will be a bit crammed. The guy was a free model i got off the internet to show how big a person would be in elation to the objects.

My Swing Set plan

OK. Here is another update. I had to take the roof off and do some other stuff to make it more stable, then i got the roof back on, with some modifications, and added the lookout. Going to hopefully finish the look-out and ladder tonight. We'll see.


Here is the progress so far. Got two swings up last night. Will get the other swing up tonight and start working on the ladder and rockwall and hopefully get the lookout area finished. Just need more time in the day.

UPDATE! This is the progress on my play set. Not quite done yet, but getting there. As you can see I had to flip it from my original plan, but it's still basically the same.

So I am going to build mi kids a swing set/playhouse. So I designed it in Maya and rendered it out. Now I just have to make it a reality.

Some creature...


Random drawing, just started doodling. It was on top of other sketches for work, so there is a lot of noise here. Enjoy.

Monday, April 13, 2009

I think i'll finish this one.


Just the line drawing here, I think I will finish it though... I'll post it if I do.

Some sketches.



Been really busy at work. It doesn't get me excited about ding stuff on my own time, so these are just a couple sketches that I have been doodling on my lunch break. It's weird. I draw all day long at work, then I do the same on my lunch break... like I can't get enough of it. Enjoy.
