Winter Theme

2 min read


Just testing out this new skin I made, I loved this snow picture so much I wanted to use it somewhere, so here it is my first custom journel skin. Looks icy cool. I'm still gonna make some slight adjustments, but I'm really happy with it. Do you like the background colour? Not too dark is it...?
The only thing that bothers me is there still some white text,  I have no idea how to change that. It's gonna take some time getting used to... I was thinking about making an alternative darker skin version as well.  I'll be making this skin available for anyone to use.  If only I could find that site the did all the codes for me, I'll like to make the text a point smaller.

41. My favorite childhood snack was Nachos with hot melted cheese, there was nothing in world like it, so thanks for making that. 
42. Edward Norton, another least favorite actor of mine, so boring, mundane and depressing. 
43. Another job I wouldn't mind doing is voice acting, if I had the chops.  The idea of giving life to fictional character appeals to me. Speaking of voice actors, I didn't like the change they did with Golden Frieza, they should of stuck with Linda Young.
44. Yes, I would love to see DBZ live actions movies done right, they won't even need to key out the green-screen for the Namek saga haha. But in all seriousness there's a lot they can do with the environment i.e. clashing waves, whir pools rising up in the air. That particular saga was my favorite saga growing up watching it as a kid (maybe because it did take place on another planet), in-fact I remember seeing this amazing promo advertising Brand New Episodes, me and my friends were blown away by it and I was like "Why does Goku have blond hair? it must be from his aura or something" It was edited so damn well with the music and voice over , it was the first time I was truly hyped for something, it was that intense. I've  got it saved somewhere.
45. If I was forced to make my own Dragonball manga it would be about the Saiyan race, it might be called "A Saiyan's Tale"  (I've already made loose designs of the 4 Saiyans & thought some dramatic scene ideas) I was thinking some scenes could be animated with Falconer's music as BGM, if these scenes is all I see then what does it really say about me? The moral of story is they are not the ruthless monkeys we expect them to be but have little bit more to offer. 
45. Did I mention I would like to build a video-game someday? I've never thought about the prospect that much before even though a very long time ago I stated I wanted to be a game-designer (sometimes) and my mother has always been kind of encouraging that this the right path to take, I remember when I used to dream of having a game get made  just my drawing concept art but I soon grew out of it. These days however I'm seriously considering the possibilities of what it actually takes to build a video-game, . I may write up an in-depth article exploring on how I would approach that and inspiration/influences (but it may just end up being a private journal)  I was also thinking about making a PowerPoint presentation on why getting into video game development is a positive thing.
46. I liked Aston Kutcher's portray of Jobs I thought he did a good impression, despite the movie having it's flaws and being cheesy- it was fun. I haven't seen the latter one though, but in all honestly I thought Tom Cruise might of done a good portrayal (looks like him). A good motivational movie exploring the early days of Apple.
47.  Patrick Schwarzenegger should be the next terminator.
48.  My favorite planet is Neptune.
49. I think my catchphrase was "different" e.g. "the same... but different" I guess I've always felt different and I like coming up with innovative stuff... that's different.
50.  I think my mission on Earth is to learn to express myself through making original and creative content.
51.  Not a massive football fan but if the world cup is on I may watch a little of it. 
52.  I remember I wore this cute black jacket during my uni days, it had absorbed a lot of experiences like a sponge but then I lost it. I wouldn't mind having the same jacket but in white, and I know for a fact that a red one exists (as I wore it). 
53.  My lightsaber of choice would be red. Red is... the one for me. 
54. I remember when I first heard 30 second samples of The Resistance by Muse I was so excited and hyped. I almost got the same feeling when I heard Origin for the first time,  just this sense of mystery and imagination.  Also one of best if not the best album covers they've had. 
55. Too be light-hearted you need to grow strong on the inside. (I think anyways)
56. Cosplay, it's an expensive lifestyle but it's something I'll like to get into someday. To have people dressing up as a character you've designed is powerful stuff, be it from a game or comic. It's crazy.
57. The problem with making a Tron sequel is, there's not much substance in a digital world, there's no history or earthly influence to draw from, it's too pristine and shallow of a world to make a strong story. Even The Force Awakens needed to take historic influences e.g. Medieval (despite taking place in a galaxy far away) BTW I really dug those influences, especially on Kylo Ren. I love his design, retro yet ancient and I like how his mask is influenced from 70's Star Wars toy packaging (even though they've stated it was influenced from these retro space-ship designs by Chris Foss). If you're a kid who grew up in the 70s and you've collected these Star Wars toys with this style of packaging , when you see Kylo's mask you'll immediely resonate with it. Genius either way. 
58. Out of Ed,Edd n Eddy I was always Double D (out of the trio), but that was 16 years ago.  
59. If I were to create a video-game character for a project I would base him on myself. 
60. Every-time I get tagged on FB = HEART ATTACK

21. I'm feeling quite calm & relaxed these days, what else do I need to prove? Just appreciate beauty and presence.
22. My favorite desert is lemon cheescake, my favourite breakfast is pancakes(with vanilla ice-cream to top it off)
23. I don't really have a favorite graphic novel, there are some good ones, but I am not obsessed with any that's why I try to make my own.  A lot of the ones I can remember always seem to be about serial killers and whatnot, that doesn't interest me that much. I mean I can't find anything that I can relate to and really get invested into it. 
24. I won't be getting into 3D until my work looks 3D, but I would love to get into it ASAP. Besides I've done it before... I wouldn't mind actuality learning it this time around , it would be dumb not to the have skills to make a realistic human face. CG is everywhere I look, there's no escaping it.  I mean if you've learnt so many programs, and your primary skill is digital painting, Zbrush would be the next place to go (a lot of digital illustrators tend to use it), and after comes 3D rendering and then eventually animation. In the end it's all software, it more or less the same thing. If you've learnt one thing you can learn another. Even Photoshop does a little bit of 3D. So I say if you know 50% of the software there is, there's no reason not to learn the other 50%.  
25. One of the greatest inventions of 21st Century has got to be the hair straightener, or better yet a cordless mini hair straightener! And the smartphone.
26. I've never been a huge metal fan, but I appreciate their culture I guess...
27. I nearly always have had brown indie-rock length hair, but I don't see myslelf getting dreadlocks. Sorry but no beeswax for me, thanks. 
28. My favorite animal? Man I don't know, I guess I would say the Wolf. And maybe the Arctic Fox. I also like Huskies, they're so cute. Somewhere in that family of woof that loves snow.
29. Another favorite game of mine is The Legacy of Goku II , if you are a fan of the show then you'll love this game. It is amazing, a great example of a small but high-quality game that can move you emotionally.
30. My favorite season? Summer the only good season in this country. Otherwise is cold damp drizzle rain for the rest of the year.
31. My favorite videogame protagonist? I guess I would say... Big Boss? (even though prefer designing my own characters). 
32. I've only ever played the original Metal Gear Solid and completed a few times. The graphics may be out-dated, but the colour scheme, lighting, music , editing and voice acting still holds up well. I've just started playing Peace Walker
33. If my soulmate doesn't exist, then I am amazing. Amazing in that I can imagine a person like that to exist in my own world, someone who laughs, sweats, and bleeds as I do . Someone who acts sarcastic all the time and smiles like a kid. If you do not exist then I must have one unique super imagination that doesn't compare to anything else.
34. Main music I listen to a lot these days are OST's. 
35. My favorite cheese is cheddar & smoked.
36. My favorite actor at the moment is Mark Hamill,  he's gonna own the part in Episode 8.
37. My least favorite actor is Kevin Spacey, too high-brow for me, I mean when was the last time he played in a teenage flick?
38.My favorite actress at the moment is... I guess Daisy Ridley. She was so fun and energetic as Rey. Also I've always liked Drew Barrymore.
39. My least favorite actress... Natalie Portman, what did she do that was so great? Something tells me she's not a huge fan of Star Wars!  But I have admit she pretty damn good in Black Swan.
40. Favorite fictional character? God where do I start... I mean there's just so many, that's why I try to design my own. I would say Olga Gurlukovich (2009) is a worthy mention, she's has to be my second favorite character from that franchise, I love her accent and personality is very cool.I think Ground Zeroes's Big Boss (even with the false grey hair and with David Hayter's voice) and Olga would make a great couple (considering the time-frame & age gap). Both awesome characters. There are many great characters in film, such as Blondie, Edward Scissorhands, Chewbacca, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, The Terminator, Godzilla, King Kong, they're some of greatest iconic characters in cinema history and we all recognize that. So the next big question is, what exactly makes a great character so great? One thing is for sure, it's in it's simplicity.

That's all for now, more to come.

Long time no see, it's a been a while I know. My main PC currently down at the moment and in maintenance, and it's all because of this new OS Windows 10 upgrade. So I can't really do much if at all, and the most worrying for me it all that digital data (have a tons of photos dating way back, things like family photos, etc) could be electronically erased, and that would be the last straw. On the positive side though my new UGEE Tablet here! The Ugee 1901 model, A tablet which acts as a 2nd monitor that I can draw straight onto the screen for the first time, a significant upgrade to the previous model and my 3rd tablet ever . Technically it's not a tablet but a monitor, anyway   I got to try it out and I couldn't be more pleased.  I actually remember when I got my very first tablet, it was tiny and I was pushing MS Paint to it's limits. The only thing I'm not sold on this is thing is the resolution, but we'll fix it soon. (depending on the resolution size of your original screen it would shrink or blow up) It's a very sleek tablet with a nice thin bezel edge and a glassy surface, not to mention the pen-pressure is double the amount of my previous tablet (Wacom Intous 3) with 2048 pen-pressure sensitivity as suppose to 1024, so that's awesome.

Anyway here are some fun & interesting facts about me (and how feel about certain things)

1. Privacy. I don't mind sharing some personal information and expressing thoughts/feelings (especially online), but I dislike like it when someone invades your own personal space. Everyone should the right to have alteast 2 meters circumference in diameter of their own private space bubble where on-else should interfere or interupt.
2. I may seem anti-social, but in actual fact I'm a social person at the core, otherwise I wouldn't be having these online blogs would I?
3. Not once in my life did I ever go as The Joker for Halloween; actually no wait... I kinda did attempt, but it was a failed attempt where I wore black trench coat + trousers instead of purple , had brown hair, lazy make-up. Perhaps a costume like the Joker needs a prototype version first, so one day if this a fore-shadow then next time it will be prefect. I also remember I did a Joker manip of me years ago that looked awesome (with green lips instead of red). I think this year would be ideal because of the Suicide Squad movie, but it's a dream. I would love to go as Kylo Ren next year, would also be ideal. ROTJ Luke Skywalker is also another option. Costumes are expensive, you need plans these things earlier on... like now. 
4. I guess my favorite video game of all time will always be Abe's Oddysee.
5. I actually wouldn't mind making my own video game someday.
6. Going to the cinema and then to a McDonald's is my idea of a perfect date, like when you walk out of the cinema and the sun setting, ect. Depends on the location, if it feels like a nice and big city.
7. Yes I do like seafood, like the more the exotic stuff like lobster, crab, mussels, shrimp, oysters, ect. I had a chance when I went to the Black Sea, but kept falling ill and missing my chances.
8. The only consoles I currently own are the original Xbox & a broken PS1.  I tend to use my smartphone for games these days (even though it's not always easy with those touch screen controls) I would need alteast 20 good reasons to buy a new console and 10 games I desperately need to play.
9. Once I put on a black shirt on = INSTANT GOTH
10. My favorite DBZ episodes are #96 & #111 & #122(filler)
11. I made 2 (and 1 not-so-great) short films so far in which both were FMPs (all in an educational institution) one was shot with a Sony camcorder and other with Nikon DSLR (rented) , I'm yet to make one using my smartphone.  Having said that, I have no interest making anymore movies. I'm not a film director really... 
12. I'll like to do a side by side comparison shot with my DSLR & smartphone
13. If were in a band I'll like to be bass player.(even though I never played the bass before) I'm not really a musician though, I don't play instruments but admire people that do. If I was seriously getting in music I would start thinking about making a record, finding a studio, a producer, ect. I mean in a parallel world next to this one I probably would of become a musician, if there was one band to want get me into music it would be Muse of course. If you have a bright and clever mind, and is able to grasp multiply concepts at once with a strong imagination , then getting into music can only be a positive thing. Then again I can't imagine doing music only and nothing visual arts, so the fact that I love some music but I'm actually an illustrator makes me want to reach some impossible level where I'm not quite there but I'm always fighting for it, and the least I could do is create something visually unique and great.  Something worth remembering.
14. I'm quite a down to earth kinda guy, I like being rooted on the earthly ground
15. I would still love to go to Japan someday, mainly to buy clothes there and merch. I've always wanted those long black coats with the faux fur hoods, I kind of have one but I would love a more trendy sexier version. As well as Tokyo,  places like Osaka would be nice, I always like to think that there is some special shirt or piece of clothing just waiting to get picked up by me.
16. И цан спеак Булгариан бут цан'т реад ор врите ит.
17. I don't really have a favorite movie that I'm obsessed with like with other things, that's why I tried to make my own. Come to think of it I was always into video games more so than movies, there's something more personal and intimate (and fun) about a video game.
18. My favorite colour at the moment is blue. 
19. I guess Return of the Jedi is my favorite Star Wars movie, it has all the best scenes & the most lightsaber action. 
20. My cat likes to eat grass.
