alright im wrapping up progress till after crimbo.

blog declared halted.

[MarcoFerrigno]

what happend to my wonderful picture?

i have a warm fuzzy feeling inside, i just got my first Boa!

well target for this week is to design some sort of land mark for th green heart woods, and im going to have to start aso contemplating the city as well. ooooh... dont ye just love Disturbed (the band)

[Macar]

I thought you were off for the holidays? Oh well, I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

[MarcoFerrigno]

art wise im off for the holiday but i cant see a problem in doing some lore concepts, besides id rather get an approval for this before i break out into a landscape painting that might end up with no use.

[Macar]

Well you can have a go- but it's not as though Greenheart is lacking features. We already have a lot of things to see there: Resurrection groves, separatist tribes, cities in the trees, and possibly a big gorge in the middle, and I think there were some other things that I'm not remembering.

I have a concept that's been WIP for ages for what I'd like the cities to look like. cant post it till I get home though...

[MarcoFerrigno]

ah right, nvrm then, hmm that stuff sounds interesting. will get working on it after my break...

[MarcoFerrigno]

gorge .... eyeless terros...

gonna keep on working on green heart as always, want to get some enviros done, wanna do the gorge too, and then maybe a few more fauna concepts.

[Thogrim]

I know this is random Reaper, but you really must hear this band.

They are called.... Dead Rabbits.

Enjoy.

Greetings from Sicily!

Ive sort of gone AWOL from the progect for the better half of the year... again. Im just listening to the first Lore cast while im writing this and i must say its a good idea for bringing the community into the fold.

Progress on the project also seems to be going quite well. Im currently working on a small concept for a swamp striding (not green heart) giraffe-esc animal (bare with me on this one) as an apology for abandoning the progect.

as for what ive been up to, I finished my first year of Uni in may, and promptly began catching up with freinds after so long with no socialising. been doing some hiking in the peak district (a lovely hilly place in the north of england) mainly going up Kinder Scout.

hit my 19th bday on the 15th of june, and on the same day also began to rent my first peice of property which is an office room in an industrial estate. which is where i began to get very busy. i began to set the room up as a sort of (zoo?) to keep my animals in. this was easier said than done as my animal's number around 100+ in number. and all of which have been set up into what i deem as zoo grade terrariums complete with water features and live plants.

anyway im off out to go wandering the streets of palermo, ill finish my post later.

Regards,

Marco.

[Macar]

woah, a zoo you say? I must see pics when it's set up.

It sounds like you are having a much more exciting summer than most of us. I look forward to seeing your art- and hopefully more of it! I was just posting in another thread, talking about a terrifying sea monster and I thought to myself, "I bet reaper would come up with a great concept for that creature..."

[MarcoFerrigno]

I will deffinitely get pics up as soon as i get back to england.

thank you for the welcoming back, it must be the 3rd one now. will have a look for that sea monster post but incase i dont find it just drop the description of it in my blog and ill give it a look.

[MarcoFerrigno]

im working on the beastiary and the astar visual look at the moment.

and ill get pics up off the zoo soon, its actually being moved to a differnt sight round the corner, two minitues walk away, but a weeks worth of shifting stuff.

[Macar]

cool keep the pictures rolling please, these are incredibly helpful.

[MarcoFerrigno]

sorry bout the no progress problem lately, mara has come back from newcastle for christmas so my time is being split between her, work and my animals.

i have concepts that i can upload, just not too much time to do it.
