Well I've been back for a few days now. Just didn't get around to updating my Da journal.
Germany was amazing, in so many ways. I appreciate

having me over there, and putting up with all my crap and I hope her and her mother realize how much I seriously appreciate them having me over. I feel in debt to them because they were just SOOO awesome. Got to see Dachau and got to hang out bunches with Ruka.
The view out of Ruka's window is really awesome. I'd take it over my window anyday lol.
It kind sucks being back in Florida, it feels like it never happened. Maybe I just had that much fun.
Been getting a lot of cool stuff, like L4D and TF2 and roogoo and some other stuff. I bought some art supplies for school and a neat art easel (been needing one of those actually)
I'm looking forward to this year at school being quick and hopefully less painful than last year. Seriously. I'm fully dreading going back to school in itself. It's like going back to jail for a little bit each day. Confusing, makes me rage, I could never describe how much i hate and dread going back to school.
Anyway, I'll let that go till I have to worry about it in two weeks. For now, I'm finishing a painting of the hills in the night over Germany, then I'm going to begin construction of a Dr. Steel Toy Soldier Robot. He'll be maybe 5-6 feet tall, depending on how tall I can stack him up and keep him standing. I've been collecting my materials. I hope to have them all by the end of this week. The only thing I fear is that he won't be able to stand up. But my dad might help me in it's construction. (It's for my mechanical project at school, I'm still going to do a mechanical drawing just in case the robot doesn't work.)
That's all I've got for now. I've been pondering opening commissions, but I'm gonna wait till I can figure out a better coloring technique. I feel I'm close, but not quite. I want to sharpen my anatomy first and I need a better technique for putting in backgrounds. Now that My gallery is cleaned up of all my old crap (really crappy crap)Sometime later when i get time i'm going to work on some images of other characters and such. I just hope I can get in more views on page and such when I start opening for commissions in the much later future.
That's all I've got for now.
