(Post 111) First of 2012; An Update
Well it feels like it's been a year since I've updated here! (Yes, the last post was in 2011, this one is in 2012. And no, the jokes won't be getting any better. Promise)
Life has been busy, but satisfying. Working at Sculpin QA is proving to still be fun, though with testing games, there's not a lot to complain about. I've also been doing a dash of Customer Email Support on the side, there, which is different. It can be nice to help people out.
One side effect I've noticed about being a game tester, it has seriously cut down the amount of time I play games in my spare time, I haven't turned my Xbox on in weeks. Or touched my guitar. Or drawn!
One thing I have been doing a lot of, though, is working on customizing action figures. I'm working on a pair of Colonial Marines from the Aliens movie franchise.
For Christmas I received a nice Wacom drawing tablet from my older brother, I intend to put this to good use as I work on developing a little idea for a kids book I came up with a couple months ago. I've got a rough draft hashed out, and will be working with a friend of mine on illustrating it once things get more finalized.
I'm trying to get myself drawing more. While waiting for tasks, or during breaks at work, I'll crank out a little doodle.
At least it's something.
A guy I work with (a project lead actually) who has a band said he checked out my site and was impressed with my work, and may see about getting me to do an album cover for him, which is pretty alright with me.

(110) Game Tester A-Go-Go
Well it's been about a month, I'm pretty settled into my new digs in PEI, as well as the new game testing job at Sculpin QA.
It's fun 'work' (some would doubt playing games all day counts as work, but it can take a lot out of you), and there's also a lot of great people there, which is pretty wicked.
Here's some proof that I haven't forgotten how to draw.
I picked up a groovy calligraphy pen at a craft store a week or two ago, and have been having a lot of fun with it in between logging bugs at work.
Anyway this is just a quick update to let you know I'm still alive.
