    I love to play as Nick, he's wonderfully cynical...and funny! plus he just shouts "Tits!" on command too.  The chainsaw is fucking amazing, when i used it for the first time in Dead Center i was having a kinda "OMG" moment...i had like 1 health left, that damn mall segment gave me no health packs or pills or anything for the entire thing, so i was totally screwed.  But i ...

  • The fact that Chris Moyles is an answer choice shows how British it is to me.  Christ...the more i watch the more British it gets...its so funny for you to answer these questions i know! and also funny for you get mixed up.  On The Spot!? a virtual Rich Gallup should come in and host that one game segment.

  • Aw, but i really wanted to express my love for the end of the game...   Vinny was getting hung up on that "No Russian" mission way too much. Also, i totally found that "other part" that i can't say, that Jeff didn't find shocking...totally shocking, i screamed "NO!" at my screen without control....it was amazing.  That too much? i bet it was, oh damn.

  • I'mmmmm Indestructible!  Well...honestly, to me, this doesnt look good at all, it just seemed a bit weak to me. And this is also why you get Bruce Buffer, cus that announcer was awful, whoever that was, if it was somebody, i dunno! im not well versed in this world.  But i did like me some UFC 09, even if it was a little thin and looked weird at times.

Here are my sketches of just two of my favourite Lost characters, Sawyer and Locke. I did a Ben Linus too, but it kinda looks bad...









Obviously, Locke is the better one, and im ever so proud of it, unlike my other drawings, i spent a long time with it, and took it real slow. It's still no Speed Painting as seen here, but, that is what gave me the inspiration to do it.

If you hate Lost...no real need to mention it here, but if you're dying to, go right ahead.

Ok so, here are some of the sketches i've worked on over last month, thought i'd share em, 'cus y'know, i can.

These are all colour enhanced...it's something my drawings really need. Gives them life.

Emphasis on Forever Never here...i'd like to say why, but i'm not gunna! you should check them out if you're a fan of harmonic and melodic metal, real excellent stuff, they're British so...no explanation. They're pretty underground, and personally i think they deserve better...The sketch got featured on their Myspace! they liked it, i'm happy about that.

The Neil Oliver one is pretty bad...to the 1% of GiantBomb users who know who the hell he is. Haha

Enough of that bullshit though.









Here are the previous Sketches of Claudio Sanchez enhanced.

(I got rid of the "Win" in the title, for obvious resons, saying win really sucks)

Hmm, how do i put it other than that? well i don't, Fallout 3 literally makes me feel Depressed and/or Sick.

Ever since i started playing the game in late December, something has been bugging me about it, and it's the setting! As we all know, a wasteland isn't pretty or enjoyable, so it's fitting that Bethesda have managed to create a wasteland that is most definitely not nice. I don't know if it's motion sickness, since the game doesn't have much view bob, but damn, sometimes it makes me feel sick, the horrible sickly green complexion of some people, the mutilated bodies and gross mutations, all add up!

*sigh* :(
*sigh* :(
Sometimes i come away from it feeling just depressed! which is no surprise, everything is run down, broken and miserable, and as somewhat of a hippie, i love trees, fauna and countryside (of the British persuasion) Hellooooo The Shire! That is why i prefer the Elder Scrolls series. Helloooo Cyrodiil!

 I'm not really squeamish either, i love blood and gore in games but damn...As a result, i haven't completed Fallout 3 at all, well...that's probably because i had to start again due to unfortunate events. But whatever!

Anyway i've gone on too much about it, i've made my point! haha.

Stay tuned this week, i'll be dropping some more sketch bombs! providing i am alive.

Not too long ago i sketched Ryan, Vinny, Jeff and Brad with crappy writing pencils, the resuts were...messy. That can be clearly seen in my old forum post, that most people thought was creepy.

SO, i went and got some new sketching pencils (i had these before, but i lost 'em, shame on me)

Here are two pictures of one, Claudio Sanchez of Coheed and Cambria, Shabutie and Prize Fighter Inferno fame, athankyou. The results are far far better. Once again i looked at the screen and drew what i saw (myspace pictures) as always with me, they come out looking fairly different, but the point to make here is how nice and clean they look in comparison to the old drawings. OH and i cheated, i specifically chose 2 pictures where his face was clearly hidden, im kinda proud of that shortcut :D then again, i love drawing the hair, it's a game changer!

The right hand is AWFUL! it truly is

The hair was a challenge.

Things to note: The right hand in the first picture was a headache, for some reason, i couldn't draw that at all, to the point where it tore the paper apart after many attempts, i literally had to peel some paper off that part to get some clean canvas. God bless cartridge paper. Yet it still looks terrible, it was the best i could do. The second picture showcases a baggy button shirt, therefore, i accidentally made him look like he put on hella pounds :S




I decided to include my initials (MC) in my drawings for once, that's one of the things that concerned me about the GiantBomb drawings.

OH and no wise ass comments if you hate his voice, F off and leave me alone :D

Time Has Had No Negative Effect On This Side Scroller. (GEN)
To this day, Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master is still one of the best side scroller's for the Sega Genesis, at least in my heart. From the astounding colourful 2D graphics, to the sublimely themed music, it's hard to fault Shinobi III for anything other than the "old ...
