Anime: Occult Academy

2011-09-03T13:48:00.000-07:00

This is a series I've been meaning to watch for a long time now and finally got around to watching it. It's the first time I've watched an entire series in the space of a day. Personally I love watching supernatural comedies so I knew I was going to like it anyways. There are times where it's predictable and times where it throws you off guard. And to be honest people like figuring out bits of plot to feel smart but still like to be surprised so I think it was very well done on that part. The animation style was a little unusual at times, it's like it was made to intentionally look a bit older than it actually is, which is good to a bit more variety to the animation styles on display. All in all I'll just say it's a series well worth watching.

Final Year of University

2011-09-01T15:54:00.000-07:00

My final year of University is fast approaching. It's been a long time coming yet it feels like no time at all. Currently still trying to set down my final year project, but currently it's looking to be something along the lines of making a board game. This year will probably be a particularly large amount of work which is why it's particularly important I do a project I can truly devote my year to.

Mini minecraft texture pack current download

2011-08-19T08:30:00.000-07:00

Here is the download of the current version of the mini minecraft texture pack. Work is slowing down a bit because of some stuff in real life but hopefully it shouldn't get in the way too much.

Mini minecraft texture pack. Slimes and glass

2011-08-16T16:23:00.000-07:00

Slimes and glass, what a great combination....Originally I was trying to get my glass to look all cracked, but in the end I decided to go with the swirly design which would suit the overall theme. Also I was originally goign to do all mobs before doing the blocks, but currently mu plan for skeletons is for them to have pumpkins on their heads (So I moved onto the pumpkin block, couldn't make it any way I liked so then moved onto another random block)

Currently I have 2 ideas for ladders so I'll do one soon. One is actually to make the ladders vines. I really like this except it won't make sense for vines to be made out of wood...

Anyways here are the videos of slimes and glass

2011-08-15T10:56:00.000-07:00

Here are the current spiders from the mini minecraft texture pack. I'd like to work with them a bit more if I can figure out the skin zones on their texture.

2011-08-13T19:05:00.000-07:00

Here is a video demonstrating the latest additions to the mini minecraft texture pack.That covers most of the gui. I have an idea for the crepers so that will be my next change, and I'll possibly work on all mobs while I'm at it.

mini minecraft texure pack more interface

2011-08-13T16:57:00.000-07:00

here is a picture of a bit more for the interface. For these screens I just have the furnace one left to do. Then I'll probably make another showcase video and call it a night.

Mini Minecraft Texture pack - text boxes

2011-08-13T12:38:00.000-07:00

Here are the text boxes I have currently. Again I'm not entirely sure if I'm going to go with them, but at the very least I'll make them available as an extra

minecraft - 60 piston elevator, fastest retracting

2011-08-13T11:33:00.000-07:00

For anyone who hasn't seen the other version s they are on my channel.

I edited my V1 of the 60 piston elevator to have this. It's faster than the other 2 on fast forward... The original mechanism in this had a 4 tick pulse cycling about the circuit until it stopped.This system sends out lots of 2 tick pulses 2 ticks apart. Most of the looping tower is now redundant and can be removed(making it smaller if I remove it, currently it's still there but just cut off)

As I mentioned somewhere before the v2 version is much smaller and easier to make but it will never be able to compete with the max speed of this version. V2 depends on sending out long pulses which will slow it's max speed quite a bit compared to this.

minecraft- fast 60 pistons retracting

2011-08-13T10:07:00.001-07:00

FileServe File hosting

2011-08-12T21:19:00.000-07:00

So I was looking for a filesharing host to store my minecraft stuff and I came across FileServe. They seem pretty good as far as actual file storage goes. But they actually seem like you could make decent money from them with 25$ per 1000 downloads (Not sure if I'll have that many downloads but you'll never know.

Majora's Mask Mirror Shield - CANNOT UNSEE!!!

2011-08-12T19:37:00.000-07:00

Mini Minecraft Texture pack V 0.2

2011-08-12T19:11:00.000-07:00

A bit more done with the texture pack. I'm not sure if I'm going to stay with that item bar. But at the very least if I don't use it I'll leave it as an extra in the pack for people who may want it.

Edit: Download link for this version

Mini Minecraft Texture pack - armor symbol + crosshairs

2011-08-12T14:36:00.000-07:00

You can see the armour symbols here and I've made the cursor very small so you may or may not see it. I'm still currently deciding on a heart symbol and on a look for the item area. I had an idea for hearts but I can't fit it into the amount of pixels available.

2011-08-12T10:31:00.000-07:00

FullMetal Alchemist Pocket Watch Drawing

2011-08-10T23:26:00.000-07:00

Here is something I drew a couple of years ago. I had to do a drawing of a watch in photoshop for photoshop class in University, and being the anime fan I am I had to do a rendering of the fullmetal alchemist watch :)

This took a considerable amount of time to do overall. Especially considering I was still pretty new to photoshop at the time and had a lot to learn.
