GDC and Crunch time!!

All right, so GDC is at the end of the month and it's going to be a blast. I'll be rooming with 3 friends from FS Robert Baum, Josh Gregurich, and Stephen Wong. We arrive in SF the Saturday before everything starts so that we can check out the city before the conference. There'll be some family and friend visiting, sightseeing, eating and game playing of course.

PAX East is that weekend right before GDC as well so that means here at Trendy we're on a crunch to get things ready to show to the lovely people there. What we're working on I can't say but I can say that if you like DD then you'll enjoy what we have to show you all.

Anyway I also have been keeping up on my Twitter frequently ever since the Oscars and their rudeness to the VFX industry. So if you don't have me on Twitter already, @Veloth88 is where you'll find me. I'll also link this to my followers on Twitter as well so maybe more people can see this blog! In which I have a thought to do a weekly animation and put it up on here. I made a few cool ones since my last post so i'll throw those up as well.

In terms of playing games Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate comes out in two weeks from midnight tonight and if you can't tell by that exact timing I'm super fucking excited for it. Smash and MH are the two games that I'm most obsessed about. Thousands of hours into both of them, no other series garners that dedication from me. Till it comes out I'm playing Fire Emblem Awakening, which I forgot how good it was, and am very glad that I have the GBA Sacred Stones from the Ambassador program. Bioshock Infinite comes out while I'm in SF and I want to try to get the edition with the statue but haven't thought about how to get it back if I bought it there. Maybe ship it through UPS...I mentioned in my last post about a desk and I got one, gave it to my g/f then bought a newer one for cheap, and Neville (the cat from Ted) is chillin like he's gonna work on something.

So, here's Neville getting hair on my chair.

Here's the leaping hammer strike 


I wanted to do a creature run that was bug like, and here's what i came up with.


I started watching Samurai Champloo again and really like Mugens animations so I grabbed reference from the intro of the show and bam.


That's it for me this week, I'm working on some other things I plan on showing next post which will be in a week at the longest.
