Return!
I just wanted to say a hearty howdy to all that I used to converse with and anyone else that may have read a post or two by me in the past. Its been far too long since I had the time to contribute to this most fine of forums, and as I have now finally been laid off for the winter months (gardening and garden design....no need to explain further really) I thought it was about time I got back into the loop a bit!
I have also been working on the foundations of my graphic novel series I am working on, some may remember I was starting it a while back, so that has taken up a lot of my time, but I would really like to dedicate a portion of my life to 3d again as I really have missed it these past few months.
Anyhow, I look forward to hopefully being a bit more of a part of this community again soon!
Any news on any new challenges of late? I buggered up my Office challenge attempt by trying to do too many other things at the same time and juggle a ton of work too, and all suffered because of it, would love to join the next one when it happens though!

Bullet: The graphic novel is only in the writing stages at the moment, I am starting to sketch out some ideas though, it'll all be in 2d I'm afraid, but I do like the idea of doing a mock trailer for an animated version, might try that oneday too.
Steve: Hardy harrrr.... Nice to see you too!....lol
