Happy new year everyone!
2015 is slated to be an excellent year for me project-wise. I'm coming out of the gate with a wonderful (and big!) commission that I'm really excited to start on. I don't have any sort of NDA with the client or anything, but I want to get started on it before I make any sort of announcements. I've also got a few sword castings on the work bench that will get some paint jobs. Those have been on the work bench for a month or so, but I'll need to finish them up quickly if I'm to work clutter-free! Until this 1st quarter commission rolls in, I'm working on a new Guy-Manuel de Homen Christo helmet! This is a completely redesigned sculpt that is accurate to the Tron/RAM-era helmet as I can get it. The old one was really misshapen and a little too big. But I've also learned a lot about prop building since I made that first one anyways, so it's bound to be a far better build overall.
Anyways, I've taken November and December of 2014 "off" in the sense that I haven't been working on any major builds. I've peddled around with some casting and minor project tinkering to keep my hands warm, but I'm eager to get back to the work bench in earnest. I'm really excited at what's to come, and I can't wait to show this stuff off!

Deadmau5 deviations are back
Pulled all of my Deadmau5 deviations back out of storage today since I needed to access some of the photos, but I felt like leaving them out. If I get any more abusive assholes making demands or any other kind of negativity on those deviations or in my notes, I'll just pull them back off DA. For context, I put them all in storage some time back because I received several comments and notes from people demanding I sell my stuff to them (not asking, demanding) and then would be verbally abusive (textually abusive?) to me when I declined. This seems to be the MO for a lot of Deadmau5 fans I've interacted with and continue to interact with on and off of DA, unfortunately, and is the sole reason why I stopped making Deadmau5 heads.
Escape from 2020
To say 2020 has been an absolute clusterfuck would be the understatement of the century. Regarding any sort of "bad events" one might normally incur in any given year - car accidents, medical issues, financial troubles, and the like - it's been a reasonably good year for me. It could be way worse, with the varied effects of the pandemic and the political unrest here in the US. So don't get me wrong... my life in actuality isn't crumbling around me, and I'm immensely thankful for that. Hell, I even got my dream car this year. But external things and lack of stressful personal life events aren't the whole picture of course. 2020 is proving to be mentally exhausting and emotionally destabilizing. And it's doing that for most people to some degree, which compounds the issue. We often seek our friends and family for solace, but when those people are under the same emotional duress, it feels selfish to seek their shoulder to cry on. Part of me says to try anyways since I may very well be
Ughh... the new DeviantArt
Looks like there's no going back on the new DeviantArt. I've already accidentally deleted an entire user's art in my watch folder. And even on my GIGANTIC monitor, it seems like everything is far too large. It's like the website is literally bursting at the seams. Just absolutely fucking awful web design. Anyone jumping ship to another platform?
Deviations in Storage
I moved all my deadmau5 deviations into storage. I might bring them back at a later time, but I'm tired of receiving messages about them demanding I sell them, and the constant pestering when I refuse. Some of the messages I receive are even textbook abusive behavior, which is entirely unacceptable and the absolute fastest way to land on my banned user list. I hate having to move those deviations into storage (removing their availability from everyone else), but I'm tired of dealing with it and just want a break from the crazy people.
