Journal Entry: Tue Apr 8, 2008, 3:08 AM
Added some recent phots from my visits to North Yorkshire and the North West Highlands of Scotland. If you get a chance, go there, the landscapes are mental. We were lucky to be there during a week of changing weather, so the contrast of colours and light on the mountains and valleys was great to see. There was heavy snow and rain, so all the rivers were bursting and the steep walls were littered with waterfalls, it was really impresive.

I have still been working on some illustrations, three of which should be ready to be uploaded in the next week. I've tried freeing up my style a bit, which has been enjoyable.

For any gamers out there, I've been playing frontlines: Fuel of war for the past two weeks, what a fine game. Rent it, buy it, but make sure you play it if you like FPS with a little freedom.

Just got a copy of Corel painter X last night, only had a quick chance to have a look but it looks great, really looking forward to gereting stuck into that.

Thanks to everyone who has a look on here, I really appreciate your comments.

Ta.
