Vacation is over!!

I came back to Finland at yesterday, I am feeling not too good after the flight I still got jetlag and massive headache and cough. I need to rest a bit maybe taking one more day off to get some rest. After watching the new updates from conceptartworld.com
I decided now it is time to start painting again! But now I need to rest.

I like this two words "no shortcuts", yes have the drive,passion and discipline to draw everyday. This is something we all can gain!

The best art direction i've ever read

I recommend highly if u havent read it. Really good info it gives you the perspective of how they did and something you can keep in mind while working with games.

I eat 3D for breakfast

Heeeey, long time yes!
I havent been able to paint anything on my freetime work. My whole lifetime are almost in 3D. That means I go to work, produce 3d, in lunchtime reading PC-forum, after work go home and study UDK and Unity. That's what Im doing everyday, I am not telling it is not fun actually it is awesome fun. I love what I do and I want to continue what I am doing. I cant imagine how much I learned in a game company, not only learning using software but by working in team. But still I sometime thinking of painting something, I'd better fill some gaps so I can paint something...yes yes.
