:bulletgreen: - So March ended. April ended. And my life is returning to a semblance of normalcy. C : Goodness knows my blood pressure, at least, has gotten back on track. >_>

I'm all moved into my new place and it's been fantastic. The rent is a little higher, certainly, but having a complex guarantee you that your neighbor isn't a drug dealer costs a little extra in LA. Which, by the way, might sound ridiculous, but it's actually one of the real reasons I moved from the last place. =_= Ya.

Beside that, I'm still waiting on my renewed certs to come in the mail, but I know I've been processed and that's a good sign. I am also now ACLS certified; Go Go Gadget Defibrillator! Gotta get another medical evaluation before June; County likes to be sure all it's little Pre-Hospital folk stay healthy little skippers! Hopefully I'll pass my visual this time, lol. Last time I read the chart and the only response I got was " *pause. cough* Well, actually, no - there are no numbers on the chart."

Uh...oh! Also, I bought a bean bag chair that is the shape of a giraffe's head.

:bulletwhite: - On the art front, I've actually got things to say! I've been drawing like it was goin' outta style. Granted, most of it is sketching or simple figures, but it's a' hell of an improvement from the past couple months. Generally, the works' been fairly similarly themed. Robot Masters. Oh, they are just takin' over. .__.
Of course, there's some other things too; some Metroid stuff, Subeta related work, a few original things, and - AND - ...art trade things. Oh ya, ~MilwaukeeDriver. I'm talkin' at you. Things is happening, brother! : D

With that, I leave you with several previews and my sincerest thanks. All you folks out there are just phenomenal. Especially those of you who've stuck by me through the rough spots. I really, honestly, consider it a shame that I've let my activity here slip to practically disuse. I will fix this. :thanks:

Take care!

Post Script: Here's a link to Fredrik Larsson's self performed Megaman 9 Rock Medley. [link]
It is seriously one of just the coolest covers I've ever heard of 8 bit game music. Ever. He's an amazing musician and I highly recommend you check him out on YouTube.

I love your work! Very cool!
Every now and then your Super Metroid pieces are shown in my Random Favorites. And every time I see them I get this overwhelming urge to play it again. You've captured the epic boss battles perfectly!

Any chance you're working on more Metroid stuff? :D

As Samus Aran would say "............"
C : Thank you so much, Red. To hear that, means a great deal to me. Super Metroid is something that has always been very close to my heart.
I am indeed working on more Metroid stuff too! [I'm actually tackling a handful of images right now C :] Couple of space pirate things, and I actually did a little work on the next couple "boss battle" images sometime last week while going through some sketches. Depending on which gets down first, the next one will be either Botwoon or Ridley. : >

Thank you again! : D
