I'm always looking for new good SciFi and District 9 was just that.  Its kind of a ripoff of Alien Nation and Halflife 2, but who gives a damn.  It was done very well and had an interesting thing going with its Mockumentary style of filming and cool set design.  Apparently it was made on a small budget but I couldn't tell, the concept art and special effects were spot on.  I think the key these days to good special FX is slashing the budget in half, that way the director realizes he has to have a good story and good cinematography.  This movie was everything Transformers 2 (worst movie of all time) was not. Also just saw Surrogates, which, w

The basic elements of my website are now in place and its time to start painting again.  One month till Comic Con, I'm betting a lot can be accomplished within that time period.  What I need now is a team of robots to just paint for me around the clock so I can engage in more important activities like what Adam is doing in Michelangelo's Creation of Man.

I'm now officially a deviant, although my account is basic.  A bunch of art is uploaded and its nice to finally have online links to my work.  I'll have to spend a good chunk of a day this week to browse different galleries and submissions.  Need to pick some more favorites!

I love your gallery!
Thank you. There are some interesting photos in your gallery. I would explore some of those closeups even more, such as the egg arrangement. I've always considered them to be minilandscapes.
Wtf! Your gallery is freaking amazing!! How in the hell do you get so little views? Something is not right here. You should spend two hours making some massive submissions to some groups and you'll easily be one of the most known artists on this site...

AMAZING stuff.
Well thanks to you, I have one more view. :)

Yes I submit rather irregularly. There are a lot of more talented artists on this site though.
lol where you @?

you should check in weekly so i know you're still alive!! XD
Helleeeeew,
Yes I'm barely alive. I've been watching every episode of Farscape on my Netflix account and am at season 3 now. Show is fucking cool. Space Sci Fi at its dorkiest and funnest.

I see that its summer time for you! Do you have a big plan? :) Or is it summer school :(
Are you going to ComicCon this year? I wasn't able to get tickets this year so I'm probably going to wait out in front and see if I can buy someone's badge for one of the days. Tickets are gone months in advance now.
what about paintings? any movement on that front?

it is summer 8D which means working on my thesis. almost got a job but decided just to focus on my pages and sculpts ^^

no way i can afford to go south to comic con - it's not really very manga friendly as i've been told, so there's not much for me there. i WILL have a table at ape if all goes as planned tho! which i am excited for ^^

lol i'm sure you'll get in - if not buy one then find it ;D
