I was playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Chernobyl, and finally found the Gordon Freeman easter egg. He's laying down dead in a tunnel in Wild Territory. There's shocker anomaly's everywhere, so be careful if you go for a look. He's got short hair, glass's and a goatee, and is called Freeman.
There's loads of games which make Half Life references now. Splinter Cell, Destroy all humans, Stalker, even Lost(the show, not the game).

Exhibition...
Went to some art exhibitions today. The first one was at the brighton university. I thought it was quite good. There were some strange stereoscopic images which we're quite interesting. They were two images next to each other, with some glass' above them to look through, which make the image look 3D.
The second exhibtion was at the pheonix building. I hated it. I thought it was way too post modern. It was a load of small movies with strange, disturbing sound effects over them, with abstract footage playing, being interupted with text every now and again. It was a story of how somebody died in a car crash, yet it would've been better if just read in a book, rather than being projected on screen, with annoying sound effects and footage in between each paragraph. I'm not really one for experimental pieces. There's a reason people tend to shoot footage in similar ways, it's because it's good. Sometimes it's okay to be the same.

New Character
I was in college today, and I started working on a new character. Haven't got a name for him yet. I'm just playing with ideas.
Just an early sketch. I'm thinking of having some cybernetic look body. I might try my hand at creating a version to go in a game, probably source or UT04.

FIRST POST!!!
Well. This is my blog. I'll post stuff about any games I play, and music I find, artwork I do. Basically, I'll post whatever the hell I feel like posting.
I go to Brighton and Hove City College, doing the Games Development National Diploma course. It's pretty fun stuff. I've completed 2 modules as of now(second completed today as a matter of fact), with some more to go. I forget how many. I'll post some of the artwork I do for the course here for people to take a look at. I'll put some on here now, just to go and get a bit of content on here.
