Statement

4 min read
Whoa dude what happend? Where have you been? You've been away from Facebook, Twitter and DeviantART for over one month!

(don't mind grammatical errors, I did not reread what I wrote)

*sigh* Alright, I had to write this sooner or later.
Yes I've been away from social media for one and a half month. The reason for this is ... not that easy.

First of all, I'm really sorry for the lack off ANYTHING... weeklys, a proper statment etc...

I am currently unemployed and I really need to find a job. However, getting a job can be ... depressing. So basicly I stagnated and spend a most of my time home in my room. Playing games, developing my game and ... crafting weeklys. At some point (one and a half months ago) I somehow grew tired of working. I had some commisions going on at this time and they really drained all my energy, especially one commision nearly drove me nuts (nearly ended in a lawsuit but I'm not going into it here (I have my reasons)). Basicly this means that I was fed up with Cinema4D, Photoshop and all that stuff for a pretty long time (imagine you would eat the same thing for 3 weeks, at one point you are fed up with it and don't want to touch it for a while). So I was tired of C4D and PS, but what about my game? Well yeah I made some accomplishments, wrote a launcher for the game, added a good bunch of custom code and other stuff... however I need help with this (since I am a complete idiot when it comes to UV unwrapping and assinging a rig to a character), so I worked on the parts I could do... and left the other stuff undone and turned my back on it.
And here's the problem... I reached the point where I did everything else and now either have someone else do this for me ... or LEARN the goddamn stuff. (Ofcourse the latter would be better for me (IF I COULD MAKE IT WORK)). But stupidity and laziness wins this time and here is the last point.
I am super lazy and had a general lack of creativity lately. I should have told you guys that I am in a somewhat crappy situation but the first thing I do when I feel shitty or tired is get out of social networks (since they just amplify my anger). 

About a week ago a friend of me started streaming on Twitch.TV for GameHazard (yes that stuff still exists : O Exiting huh? And that motherhubbard of a show is still not yet done. (Jup, fuck me right?)) and I decided to finally complete it (some may noticed that "Benny" is now another "Benny" since the old one was just ... preventing any progress (Not gonna lie, took him 3 months to write a review... that's what I would call .... way more lazy than me)

Luckily the situation improved and I am finally in the mood of working again, the last month was complete crap for me. Fortunately I went on a vacation for 2 weeks to relax and get all that crap off my mind.

I would love to say that everything is fine again but I'm still worried about my future and this wont change until I get a job. Anyway let's sunset that and continue being friends hmkay?

We're still cool? Good!

I'm going back to my regular weeklys schedule, make some updates on my game and finally tell you when GameHazard is done. (Finally I can say for sure that it's about to launch, thanks to more competent and helpful friends.)
For all those who are concerned. I promise that I won't go anywhere anytime soon. 
You got me back.



Oh, and .... it's good to be here again : )

Weeklys!

2 min read
I'll just leave this here. (holy moly, a copy pasted FB status! Burn me! Heretic!)

www.facebook.com/RuneStormFilm…


Weeklys!

Because I can't manage to make daily renders and pictures! I'll create several renders every week and upload them on Facebook, Twitter and deviantART, you may judge over them, you may give me advice and/or critism, you might like them, or hate them... it's up to you :)

Feel free to do whatever you want with those renders.

You may use them in your work (non-commercial), modify them or nail them on your wall... I'll provide project files for every render (if possible) at the end of the week.

If you want to use it, feel free to do so, just drop me a link of your work so I can see what you did :)

Every render will be 1280x720.

And do you even know WHY I'm doing this? Mr. Niceguy? Maybe... but I also strive to improve my skills in Cinema 4D / Photoshop / UDK / Spark Engine

And who made this happen? ... easy... beeple, this guy is my inspiration. He makes astonishing pieces of art, go check him out, he is way better than me, but oh wells...

First render is up aannnnyyyy minute .... annnnnnnyyyy minute... SEE! RENDER! .... no wait that's an ad...

(Renders will be on dA and FB, I'll link the FB link in the description of each render)

The Leading Force

3 min read
I am finally back in business regarding "draw stuff and not model 3d things" and I want to approach it with a different angle.

I got used to Painter and Alchemy because I lacked a bit of creativity when it comes to outlines and shapes.
I was always the kind of guy who liked to color things and add shading. I am honest, ofcourse I started with some traced stuff, altered it and made it look different.
But in the end it began with a traced work which was not mine, there are plenty of artists out there who do this and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

But there was always one thing that buggered me... I wasn't original or different, I always wanted to inspire people but with my current art is... well... not really inspiring.

I think I should change my point of view regarding art. I want a different approach. I want to change my style of art, because I think that's not me... not my style how I want it to be.

Now I'm trying to get an idea of what I want my art to be. What fits... what feels good... whats my personal touch... whats mine...

I'll start to create a cr*pload of pictures and drawings the next few days/weeks/months with reallllllyyy different styles. I want to discover something new, something unknown... there are hundreds of thousand artists out there, some copy stuff, some draw original stuff, some stay with the old stuff, some draw inspiring stuff and some... are yet to find their style and feeling.


I started a lil' drawing on my pc, I think I'll finish it midweek and upload it here. Here take this teaser I posted on Twitter:P


Join me on my course on finding what is my true style (wow that sounds like some TV Commercial)

I'll post stuff on Twitter, Facebook and dA :)

:twitter: RuneStorm on Twitter

:facebook:  RuneStorm on Facebook

Oh and please excuse my poor poor english.
I'll keep you updated!
