I can't find my 1920s tank.

I'm so sure I did some work on it at home, but since it's not here I reeeeally hope it's at uni.

I don't see why I don't have it, considering I back things up a lot.

A lot.

So yeah.

I really wanted to have him and something else done this week, but by the looks of it that isn't happening. I'll just have to move onto something new if it isn't here.

EDIT: I see it on remote access but I can't get it. Annoying.

Howler

I spent today working on the Howler a bit more. I wanted to keep the 2 key parts of that account:

1) The titular howling

2) The tiny toddler feet

But, as I was trying to make it look less grey-childy, I had an idea: instead of it having toddler footprints because it was the size of a toddler, maybe that's just what the player is led to believe. Then, when they see it for the first time, they get the surprise of findoung out that, despite its teeny tiny feet, it's actually really big.

The 'final' draft (The one at the bottom-right) doesn't have the feel that I wanted, so I think I'm going to bulk its legs out a bit at a later stage, lest it feel too stilty and fragile.

For the pinup

Just a quick way to look specifically at the work I've done for the module.
If I can, I'll hand this in with some printouts rather than printing everything (because I am poor D: )

YEEEEAHFUTURES

I finished the essay. Yay!

Well, I say 'finished', but I need to put the Bibliography in. That's just grunt work though; the main body was the tricky bit, and it's done.

I had some big doubts at the middle-point of it, thinking I'd chosen some lame subjects that weren't to do with anything. And it was most certainly difficult, because it wasn't something tangible and lookupable like, say. Hairbrushes. They're all concepts rather than things. But, I'm glad I stuck with it, because by the end I was seeing links in stuff that made me feel like it made sense to choose them.

I think my saving point was Spongebob Squarepants. When I got to that, I realised it connected to my other stuff surprisingly well.
So yeah.

Thanks Mr Hillenburg.

Well.

I'm done for this year.

I LOVE DESIGNING

So for my GDD, I was making enemies. I read this really cool story - supposedly true if you want to believe the witness - about some squealing creature with the footprints of a toddler that he nicknamed the Howler. Being a sucker for creepy stories, and with it being such a nice blank canvas I decided to use it as a starting point for an enemy.

Everything was going great, until several weeks later...

... I realise I've just drawn a Grey Child from Silent Hill 1.

Why is designing so hard?

How is it possible to very blatantly rip something off by accident??

So.

The Howler's going to need some really major work done.

Hmph.

So yeah. Read this awesome story. It really is very creepy (And I really hope it's true and not just a big fake).

Fewchers

I have big regrets about the things I picked for Futures. I've thought of a couple of subjects that'd be much more appropriate trend-wise, but it's far too late to change them.

So basically I'm stuck with 3 things that I don't really feel have a trend at all. They're just.

Things that happen forever.

But I have to roll with it until it works.
