  • Clay Model of Ace’s head

    Sometimes I just have to break out the Sculpey and model something with my hands. It helps me think. In this case, I’m thinking about Ace and what makes him tick. This is also for use as a drawing aid. I hope to make the time to model his whole body at some point, then pour some resin casts. Ace bobble heads anyone?

    Ah… much better. he needed more chin action.

  • Storyboards Soon!

  • SDCC 2012 EXPERIENCES by Chris Pope

    First let me apologize for the lateness of this guys. I have been slowly writing this for a couple of weeks now but in dealing with everything else, have had to keep back burner-ing it. Thanks for the patience!

    So to start this post, I’d like to begin with my first thoughts of SDCC 2012 in general. The San Diego Convention Center is 615,701 square feet of space for all of the worlds geeks to come together and enjoy being, well, geeks! I say geek with absolutely no problem because not only am I one of them, but if you didn’t know, in this day and age it’s cool to be a geek! Yep, you read that right, and if you don’t believe me, just check out my friends from The Guild Web Series for clarification. The other thing to point out is that, HOLY CRAP, I really do think they tried to cram AT LEAST 90% of the worlds geeks into that convention center! Almost standing room only at times.

    SDCC 2012.. I AM IN YOU! WELL.. I WAS AT LEAST

  • Glimpse of our Virtual Idea Board

    Hey gang! Thought we’d give you just a pinhole glimpse of the online corkboard Scott and I are test driving – a place for us to throw all our ideas for piecing together the story, character development and puzzle ideas. We’ll be revealing more as things progress, naturally. Also, we are evaluating various tools and game engine tech and are very excited about the direction things are going.
