Holy riceballs, they did it!?! They even nearly reached 830k ?!??! That´s just amazing!! :iconomgtearsplz:

"Keep Skullgirls growing":
For all those who don´t know what it´s all about: Lab Zero Games put up a fundraising-campain on indiegogo.com since they´re going to release their game on Steam, but also wanted to add additional content (f.e. more playable characters) and were lacking a bit on capital for it. As you can see on the site, the actual goal was 150k (for character "Squigly" only), every bonus fund would add some more goodies to the DLC. The thing became viral quickly and the funds were growing dramatically, giving the team more and more options to add and improve their work and giving away nice content such as Soundtrack, Beta-access, Artwork, etc...

What they did right during this campain:
- sticking close to their fans
- (by) keeping their supporters and fans up to date with newsletters of what they´re working on; showing what they´re doing and how they´re doing it (+ interviews, livestreams,etc.)
-interacting with other bigger groups/communities to get more attention (f.e. EVO2013, Zone-Archive, Mane6, etc.)
[especially ingenious move: offering the Skullgirls-engine to the Mane6 team if the fund reaches 725k. Lemme explain that:
MLP fans love Mane6 for their work on "Fighting is Magic" -> Hasbro prohibited Mane6 to publish the game -> Mane6 reworks the game and could use a nice engine -> Lab Zero Games offers their engine if people add funds to Skullgirls -> MLP-fans are well-known donators -> win-win situation]
*clap clap* well played, Lab Zero Games, well played. :iconstudmuffinplz:

Other news:
Oh jolly, Bioshock Infinite is finally out; and it seems to be as good and bombastic as they always promised. But to be honest: the Modern Warfare 3-effect got me again, or in other words, the "I-got-so-many-infos,-pictures-and-videos-about-this-game-in-the-past-6-months-that-I-don´t-want-to-see-it-anymore"-effect. I think I´ll give it a try after half a year or something like that, when it´s on a low-price on Steam. Don´t get me wrong, the game is incredibly awesome, but I just got overfed with infos about it that I´m currently just glad that it´s finally released.

Everybody knows the old question "What would you prefer? Ninjas or Pirates?"
Assassins Creed 4. "A pirate, trained by assassins." Ugh... nope :iconyeeeeaaaah:


Probably the longest and most expensive Jack Daniels commercial you´ve ever seen. Maybe they´ve overdone it a bit? x)
[link]


And as always, for reading through all this, here are the goodies:
the Beach Boys unplugged :iconyoucardplz:
[link]!

Racism is bad, but...The Sims IS a game about interpersonal relationships, right? Right?
I´ll go to hell for laughting so hard.

And I´ve found a very well made drawn short-movie about dragons, knights, princesses and a dramatic, well written story.
"Reversal of the Heart". Enjoy!

Keep on rambling, folks!

Munich. Rome. That´s where I´ve been in the last 2 months.

Currently armed with gallons of tea and honey, I´m recovering from my (super-awesome!) trips since I got a bit sick now...no wonder, it´s as frosty cold as in Novosibirsk outside :iconbawww-plz:

I´m not really into fighting games (except the Smash Bros series, but some ppl say "nah, that´s no real fighting game", other say "it iiz!!", yadda yadda) but this year (and also last year), two games caught my attention: "Fighting is Magic", the fanmade My Little Pony-based project which looks really neat and "Skull Girls", which has such an impressive style, characters, ideas and music that I couldn´t resist giving it a closer look.

Sadly, since "Fighting is Magic" was using original characters of the series, it got shut down by Hasbro shortly before the developers, Mane6, were able to release it. They´re currently now asking kindly if they still can somehow release it (since it was a good deal of work) and waiting for reactions from Hasbro, but things aren´t looking that well. Still, Lauren Faust (I think "lead producer" of the new MLP-series at the beginning, no?) even offered to draw some non-related characters for the team, so there´s hope for the fans.
Also MLP-related: I comissioned :iconglowbunny: over half a year ago to make my OC Rambleflank in her style and this is came out [link]
She apologized several times for the long time waiting for it, but it was worth it. It looks nice, nah? :>

Anyways, talking about "Skull Girls" (which has actually been released on 10th of April 2012 [but only for XBox and Playstation]): there´s going to be a PC version of it (fuck yeh). And not only that, it´s even going to be published on Steam [link] (double fuck yeh :iconilavplz:).
OhIcan´twait.

This one here is old, but if anyone asks how my html/php lessons look like in college, our professor is beyond awesome. BEYOND AWESOME. We actually learn a lot there, since these memes always get our attention back :3 Here an example of one of our lectures about PHP [link] (a lot of people said "blabla, what a bad professor, that´s not how you teach PHP blabla", but as already said: we actually learned a lot here, he did a damn good job)

Oh, and till recently I´ve been watching "The amazing world of gumball" since I´m fond of creative animated series and good ideas. Still, I´ve had enough for now, the main character is also a bit too hysterical from time to time, but maybe I´m just getting too old for this stuff :iconhuarghplz:

ALSO: if you´re a fan of the Thief-series or System Shock 2 (as I am): two extremely neat patches appeared out of nowhere (on sept.2012, still, people were going nuts about it), pimping the whole game to the max (comparing it with it´s old graphics) [link]
Link to the patches and the guy who found em can be found here [link]

Ah, and PS4 has been announced yesterday. Hmyeh, already looking nice, but I still prefer PC as a gaming platform.
Also, go and watch Django, it´s nice.


And as always, since you´ve been reading so nicely through this, have some internet bullshit:
If you´re surfing on the internet a little bit more than an ordinary mortal, you may have noticed that there´s currently this Harlem Shake-meme going on. It´s mostly one guy/girl in a crowd dancing to the start of Baauer - Harlem Shake, and when the drop is coming, suddenly everyone in the scene is going nuts and dancing. Somehow like this:[link]
I think I just found my fav [link] (7 mio views in 4 days, not bad huh?)

Here´s an italian doom mod which just makes no sense, but is extremely entertaining (and unnecessarily violent). And a let´s player who doesn´t know what to say, but laughs his ass off
WARNING: CONTAINS EXTREMELY EXCESSIVE VIOLENCE. Don´t watch it if you´re not at least 16 (well, at least I said it)
[link]

Also, I recently discovered the tunes of a guy called "Savant" (which actually seems to be a savant irl). NICE electronic music if you ask me. Here´s a music video about tiny sock thiefs and hunting kittens
[link]

Bad news first, regarding my OC for "Super Smash Ponies":
"After this graphics overhaul, will there be any OCs in the game at all? (Like Lugnut?)"
"Nope, sorry! They just don't fit at all."

Well, that´s a letdown; they could have at least added their animations/profiles as a little hidden easter egg or something.
Bullshit >:V (also: thanks for not responding at all; I had to find out all of this on their tumblr page. Pfff...) :iconfinegeezplz:


Nevertheless, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you; enjoy the holidays and reload your batteries with food, chilly afternoons, food, meetups with friends n family and food :>
At least that´s what I´m gonna do, the last 2 weeks barely let me sleep, eat and breathe; college life takes it´s toll.


I think the only reason why people kept talking about the apocalypse were these tons of end-of-the-world-parties, which I also enjoyed a LOT :iconava4plz:


Also WTF, anyone knows the band "Glitch Mob"? Some students from my college made this video
[link]
This...this is EXACTLY what I´m working for! If I keep the hard work up, I´ll be able to create animations like this one in at least approx. three years. That´s hell of a motivation :iconomgtearsplz:y


enough about my boring RL, let´s get to the bonus stuff:

Anyone of you knows "swoozie06"? He actually just a guy who tells stories of his life and adds some lil drawings to the story, but these stories man, they´re GOLD, I tell ya, GOLD :D

HOT NEWS:
Chris Roberts´ (Wing Commander, Freelancer) crowdfunding-project "Star Citizen" has reached the last day with a total result of over 6.2 mio. dollar (the goal were 500 000 $) ; this is a new kickstarter-record.

A promising title from an awesome developer, we now have something to wait for for the next 3 years :o :)

old topic:


Oh crap :P

Remember the pony-related surprise? It´s about the upcoming mlp-brawler "Super Smash Ponies"; the developers team have arranged a small OC contest a while ago; if you were successful, your OC was going to be implemented into the game...and I did it :>
It was up to me to make every animation for my character so it could be implemented properly; I stuck to similar animations of other ingame characters and started right off...and then I had a car crash and wasn´t able to get access to my pc for more than a week (send Zilven (creator of SSP) an email about that). Also, this stress with university kept my daily routine very tight, but still, after a month I wanted to send Zilven the first bunch of animations when I discovered on his youtube-acc that he and his team were actually relaunching the whole thing and switched to a different style: [link]

Not only that my animations are for no use now ("luckily" I wasn´t able to spend more time with them since I had that accident, only got 4 done now), I also don´t know if the OC is going to be in the game after all (and I guess that Zilven and the team are unsure about that too since they would have to make all the animations for Ramble themselfes if they want to keep everything in the new style).

That´s why I´m uploading all the animations I´ve done so far, which are:
- basic running
- gallop
- standing
- basic attack

I hope they still will implement Ramble :I
Also, keep an eye on that project, this is getting bigger; thought it would just be a small one-developer-game :D Awesome.
[link]
They also got a DA account up now, have a look! :iconsupersmashponies:

Other topics:
We got some "character development"-homework to do, it´s still not clear what kind of character we have to create, but I already got some good ideas (and even sketches) for it :] so good stuff coming up in the during the next 2 weeks.

Also, I found this song by accident and the tune is just so friggin awesome. I kept listening to it for hours and got myself some info about the creator (cooperated with Gonzossm and Egoraptor, even made a good "20% cooler"-remix? Who is that guy?") and the lyrics when I suddenly realised "Shit. The song is about gayseks."
<-<

And then I thought "FUCK IT, the song is awesome, I´ll hear it anyways."
"Tickle my prostate" *shivers*

But I got some nice news:

- I´m officially a nerd now. This university has got a huge Dungeons&Dragons-Group (you know, tabletop, dices) and I always wanted to try that, sooo....I discovered that a friend of mine already played this plenty of times and we made ourselfes a bigger group with 7 people. Steampunk setting, DSA-Rules (which are wayyyyy easier and more fun to play) and some nice people to play with. Funny that our group actually nearly has more girls than boys, somehow odd :o but nice, nah? :iconhurrhurrplz:

- Got a huge, MLP-related surprise for y´all, but it will take at least a month to finish (since I got so much to do :( )
Nevertheless, here´s a little sneak peek [link]

-Also, got into the closed beta of this HOT STUFF; I always hated it that Mechwarrior5 was canceled. And then HAWKEN appeared:

Goddamn, university is startin next monday, can´t wait :>

Since I don´t want to drive about 90 minutes twice a day to get to my university, I moved to a student dorm now. It´s a huge complex with at least 500 other students.
I smell parties. And a lot of work. But this time it´s going to be work which I actually LIKE to do, yeah owo

Yeh, that´s actually everything which happened in this month. Ah, and they pulled another giant wisdom tooth out of my mouth, which left a huge hole in my mouth behind :I At least, there´s only one more to go, probably in Spring, then I´m finally going to be wise, at least in a dental way *ba-doom tsh!*


From teh interwebz:
Another DayZ short here. There are currently so many hackers on this Mod that I´m gonna wait for the standalone version which is currently still in development. Still, some of them at least got humor

Gah, FINALLY it´s as good as done. We´ve been working on our house in the past 4 weeks; totally renewed the outer casing + a thermal insulation. Also, we removed the old balcony and are going to add a winter garten to the house. So, yeh, I´ve been VERY busy in the last time, chiseling walls, tempering concrete and paint, cleaning huge concrete pavers with a pressure washer, meeeeeh... :P

Somebody remembers the Nikarus vs Taimic-series? [link] turned out that my pal couldn´t keep up with it because he underestimated his amount of free time (yeh, "had to spend", he´s also done with his job now, but I guess he´s now to lazy to continue with this series x] )

-Team Fortress 2 has just released a coop mode with a nice lil´ trailer [link]

- Unreal and Crytek showing off their newest bling-bling-video-technology in a small demoreel

-This tiny program "SCP-087-B" is currently an insider tip on the internet for everyone who loves the horror-survival-genre (it´s actually an "upgraded" version of the original game "SCP-087"). In this minigame, you simply walk down some hallways and stairs in a basement (with some paranormal activities, of course), but the atmosphere and the effects are very well made. I played it two times and then stopped because it was just too exhausting if you focus on the game 8I . They really focus on the basic elements: darkness, narrow areas, fear of the unexpected. And these nasty sounds really turn on your fantasy and paranoia :U
WARNING: Do not play this game if you have a weak heart or if you´re getting startled easily. You can also watch some youtube-videos first to defuse the thrill.
[link]

btw new mainstream avatar is mainstream [link]

Aaaand I got myself a sweet Lapfox TSHIRT and GODDAMN it´s so sweet that even a bee slipped into the tshirt and made me dance for half a minute before I came to the idea to undress it; it has the "sharktits" image on the front [link]
Awesome.

I guess there are only a few people now who still haven´t heard about this zombie-survival-mod "DayZ" for ArmA2. This guy here had a livestream going while playing the game, so people were able to watch him and even write their commets into a chatbox. Look what he did for their entertainment. ALSO, KEEP AN EYE ON THE CHAT :D  (btw ArmA2 has ingame-voicechat, so this poor guy on the ground can hear everything he says. Oh god, enjoy! x])

And flash animator Zeurel has started a new series about people talking in team fortress 2, hilarious. There are already 4 episodes online, go and watch em!

The last weeks were a rollercoaster, with one extreme down, but a lot of even better ups.

At first, everything seemed to go down. Had some shitty days at work and this reached it´s climax when I got a message that the university in which I put all my hopes into rejected me. 6 months of animating, rigging, recording, rendering and cutting video clips for nothing (except learning that stuff). [btw I should really upload some concept art from this project]

This was an extreme downer for me, because I didn´t put any hope into my second application and it seemed as if I had to work for another year until I could again send out my applications again. Another year of work.... I nearly wasn´t able to go to work on the next day :(

Thank god, a week later, a letter appeared in my mailbox. With only a tiny, dying flame of hope left, I opened it. It already appeared to be a bit fatter than a simple rejection letter. And bam. "We are glad to tell you that you have been accepted for OHMYGODWHAAAAT?!!?!?!?!"

I have been accepted and now have the honor to learn at the no.1 university of Austria for Multimediatechnology and -design. That kind of university where people say "yeh, would be cool to study there, thaha....nah, that won´t happen", that kind of university with hundreds of applicants every year and a very low chance of being taken. I am absolutely sure that this was my best day of 2012.
I can´t describe how awesome this is and everytime I think about it I feel so revitalised. Wow.

And then, there was a 180° turn from extreme hell to extreme harmony. I got accepted by my university of dreams, my first, own, nearly high-end pc was on it´s way to me and I was going on a short holiday with my family to Florence, Italy, for a neverending quest of devouring godlike pizza. Goddamn, how can you handle so much and rare joy? :>


Ok, enough of me about dancing in the clouds and other happy-go-lucky stuff. Also got some other news for ya:

- E3 2012 is over and it...was okay. The new Splinter Cell is a huge disappointment (this rather looks like Call of Duty than a sneaky stealth game), but there´s also a very interesting newcomer called "Watch Dogs". Look at that trailer, it looks so very great
[link]

- I´m gonna be away for a week next month for a vacation with some of my friends from my old university. And since they weren´t able to find anybody who´d drive about 1000km  (about 12 hours of driving), I now have the honor to drive us one whole day long, starting the trip at 2am in the morning. Shit :D

-Also, as you already were able to see, I got myself a new program called "Scupltris", which actually is the free pre-version of "ZBrush". With this thing, I´ll be able to create awesome models which then are exported to Autodesk Maya, where I can rig them and bring them to life.

And of course, here´s the reward for reading:

Last journal entry: 23. Jan.....whoops :3

Oh, so many things have happened in the past few months! Ok, let´s try to sum things up:


- Found out that the two universities I want to matriculate are even more awesome than I thought :D

Multimediadesign is just so friggin awesome and being able to work with the leading engines (Unreal Engine, Cry Engine), Green- and Bluescreens and some friggin cool programs (Autodesk Maya, Zbrush,...) makes me drool all over my keyboard like Homer Simpson...*guuuuuuuuuuh* Also, the people are 20% cooler (they were using internet-memes at the open days) and comparing to my last university (technical and engineering stuff), the amount of girls is WAY HIGHER. Just lovely :iconfinallyplz:

- Edd Gould, creator of "Eddsworld", has deceased (I still just can´t believe it. Life can sometimes be so...not-right) :iconeddsworld:

I always thought that he´d make it, the harder it hit me when the news arrived that he didn´t...Thanks for the great ideas and the laughters, Edd.

- April Fools Day, meowbey to your new leader thahahaha!:iconmajorgeneralwhiskers:

This time, DA did it way better than Newgrounds, great idea with that kitty imperator (and the badge)


Aaaand of course your reward for reading this:
A pretty cool Samsung-commercial

By the way, about the journal title: I´ve lost my wallet a month ago (thank god it was found on the next day) and I discovered something weird: When I was telling my co-workers that I had lost my wallet, they instantly asked: "Where´s your wallet?"...
...
...
3 people, exactly the same question, they didn´t plan it. How...I mean WTF??? I guess this happens when people don´t really listen to what you´re saying. Otherwise I just can´t explain this phenomenon Oo

P.S.: A grrreat Fluttershy-pic is coming soon, currently working on the lineart. It´s going to be full of *yay*

Ooooh, love it that Renard now started a mashup-project, the new alias "Truxton" also looks  xtremely awesome (black, white, grey and teal are a wicked colour combination :O) [link]

I´m also happy how well actually my newest work "Styx Mashups" (featuring Truxton) came out. Already changed my wallpaper on my computer AND on my mobile phone (seems as if I´m the biggest fan of my own pic, theh x)  )

I´m also currently into a bigger project, workin´ on a 3D-Animation short for the reception of a university (of digital art, obviously :] ). And it aiiiin´t easy at all, nope, it´s going forward very slowly; especially cause I have to rewrite the storyline since there were too many characters and things in it which I wouldn´t be able to make in this short amount of time o.o
Oh boy, busy times comin´up, but at least it´s something creative and not calculations, measurements and stuff like in my last studies :P

And FINALLY, after five years, I got the 5k mark on pageviews.
Yes, it´s a shame. Yes, I´ll try to do better ;]

Whoa, I´ve been quite busy in the last weeks: enjoyed several christmas and birthday parties, travelled to Nuremberg to see the "Christkindsmarkt" and to IRELAND to visit some ex-university friends of mine.

I´ve also finally finished the second art trade request "Sailor Qualis", a Sailor Moon OC of :iconstefbani:. Sad thing is that I never found enough motivation to do a good job on it, and everytime when I wanted to start with an other idea, I thought: "Damn, nah, I still have this unfinished Sailor Moon art trade here and she´s already waiting really long for it, so I should finish this one first before starting a new work.... (looks at the undone work)....uuuuh, nah, in fact, I´m not in the mood for drawing at all." And this is how it worked for me in the last time :P

Come on,  I´m not perfect :]

Okay, let´s take a look at the list:

:iconanswertolifeis42: to do: his character Quint [link]
He did my "Street Zodiac"  [link]
Update: DONE. And it´s AWESOME  [link]

:iconstefbani: to do: Sailor Qualis [link]
Update: Done, and I´m also sorry for being late [link]

:iconaivelis: the first elemental wolf, the Winged Wolf [link]

:iconnarwalmilk: we came up with the idea to choose a topic and a song from Pendulum (since we both like it) and then draw to it


And, as always, your reward for reading:

So, YES, after a long time of resistance, I finally bow to the wishes of some of my friends and watched the first two episodes of My Little Pony - Friendship is Magic. It was also my curiosity which brought me to this, because:
- there are SO many ppl on the internet who adore this series, also some ppl I regulary watch (Vaporotem, Scott Ramsoomair [VGCats], chalosan,...)
- it was developed by Lauren Faust (Power Puff Girls, Foster´s Home of Imaginary Friends), which promises good laughters
- "What´s all the fuzz about it?"

During the first two episodes, I thought that I had already figured the story out: "Aaaha, 6 friends who will fight for the rest of this series against a villain with the power of friendship. Duh." The more surprised I was when they already took her down in episode 2 and I was like "What? And what now? 8I "

And so I watched another episode. And another one. And another one. And here I am, waiting now for Season 2 Episode 3. I never thought I´d ever say it but

IT´S SO FRIGGIN GOOD
