A big hello

My name is Chris. I draw stuff. I'm studying Game Art Design at De Montfort University which is essentially ridiculous. I mean, the study of games. Just sounds too good to be true. Which it is, its hardly relevant to games so far which is just dandy with me. I like the art side too.

The first week was rather mind numbing in the sense of it switching between easy and very hard very quickly. Monday was our introduction to 3DS max which is a 3D modelling software. We had to create a church first of all by following an elaborate tutorial. Pretty simple. Then they threw us in at the deep end and told us to make a dalek. As in, the shooty things from Doctor who. That's one steep learning curve. Granted, I can now make a dalek. But not much light was shed on the subject in terms of assistance. Not saying I want my hand held throughout. Just that, it was unexpected. Then the second day was single point perspective which was definitely welcomed after having my eyes melted by a computer monitor.

Here's some boats to keep you company whilst I draw some bricks.
