UGGG! .... DONE




Finally. Done with this study of Tadeo. There are many mistakes, but I had to post something for the longest time. Anyway, this is an initial study. There was many edits...A TON actually.


Tadeo with two pistol grip scimitars. Each one about a meter long blade. The left hand sword is deceptively twice the weight of his right hand sword. This is to keep his arm strength as symetrical as possible and to give him a level of versatility in tactics.

His right arm is certainly faster and has better precision but his left arm is much stronger when making simple strikes.

it reminds me of my mom's quirk of actually wearing one contact and being able to see exceptionally far (bec. of her old age) and see normally with her contacts on the other eye.

I'd didn't know the brain can adapt to that (she's been doing it for 15 years).

There are alot of details about how he fights and his strengths and weaknesses but I won't get into that here. Its better to expound it in the comic. I'll just comment that he is an swordsman in an the era of not just guns but repeaters.

I'm sure many know my love for realistic heroes and their limitations. His combat effectiveness is perfect given what he is tasked to do, he is also versatile enough to fulfill other roles (except support, poor ranged abilities), and he knows better than anyone (before anyone else can see it) when to retreat and change his approach.

A realistic hero in Philippine storytelling :)). Now thats different... and original (if your filipino then you should get that comment).

Pray that I get more done in this week. Hope to get build up an illustrator portfolio for Steve Jackson Games.

Technically I'm done with the project

no charter . after learning what a charter is and because they don't work with a charter I'll never do a project without it. A charter is a written agreement with a project sponsor/employer/ in what outputs to be expected and what points are needed to consider a project done. I've never worked with a character before and was continually frustrated and depressed because of constant revisions and fluctuating tastes and expectations. I'd rather be thought of a total prick than to destroy my life working without a charter. This comes up because, when technically my dad removed me from the website project I'm being asked to arrange it again. This fuels my wishes, not to mention memories of unbearable depressions, to really leave the company I just joined in 2 months. Honestly, I'm here cause my parents want me. They can't make me want this job. I was doing well in the 3d artist track, I was poor but well, less stressed and still hopeful of my future. Personally,

Gurps Mysteries

A really great GM book . If there was Game Mastering for Dummies (not just for DnD or GURPS ), Gurps Mysteries is the next level of Advanced Game Mastering. This is where the players grow up a little, they are not as interested in Hack and Slash anymore and they begin to lean on a more cerebral challenge. One of the best elements of this books is how to communicate clearly to your players through clues and hints in the game. Despite its focus on mystery, this books i great for any intrigue. Eventually mastering these technqies, format, and story telling will allow for games to have a very clear and sophisticated finish. An art onto itself, and not just a game. Of course the most important element is having fun. Fun is when you and the players are on the same page no matter what you throw at them to challenge their characters and give them a chance to shine. Filled with too much information . I'm excited at what I learned about armor smithing in the early Renaissance and late

330mg of Caffeine will do the trick

Ok i got a grande brewed coffee and put 8-10 packets of brown sugar thats about 155 calories. This is twice the amount of Caffeine i get from my 2 shots of espresso in the morning with 4 teaspoons of brown sugar. How do i feel... Better! although my face is reeling from the bitter after taste of the coffee. good coffee is really sour going down and really bitter after. The intense sugar tends to make the sourness taste fruity. Anyway, my is elevated and I'm a bit hyper but i am able to control that better these days. The tons of notebook and the emotional intelligence studies help. Particularly when i've broken down most of my peculiarities and the way I think. Heck, I think i can make an entire wiki based on how I'd react to certain things. It would be very revealing and transparent of me, and of course like the anything so vulnerable subject to abuse when falling in the wrong hands. I have to email, a friend back some airsoft details.
