WarCraft III Map-movie #5: RPG

This was mainly a simulation of what I wanted to make as a game. I knew how to script and program movies on WarCraft, so it was easy to stage things. I'd still like to try actually programming one sometime though.

WarCraft 3 Map-movie #3 and #4

A two-for one sale today! I wish I could release these more sporatically, as in, between posts about other stuff. Projects have been hard lately with a baby on the way (Monday!) and finishing up finals. I haven't even touched Knight Guy for a week. Hopefully I can get back in the swing and have a summer full of projects!

WarCraft 3 Map-movie #2: Apotheosis

This is probably the longest cinematic I've made. I have no idea where the concept came from, but I'm glad I can show it to you via FRAPS, because when I tried to share it on the internet in high school, its size was so big due to the many imported songs that few even bothered to try downloading it.

WarCraft 3 Map-movie #1: He's Flying!

I got FRAPS for my birthday! Now I can make some gameplay videos. It'll take a bit of time for me to get the hang of it (mostly just utilizing hard drive space and making the most of the video sizes) but in the meantime, I'm going to start showcasing my old WarCraft 3 maps for your viewing pleasure! These are probably only going to be interesting if you've ever played WarCraft 3, but it's fun for me because I made these when I was thirteen, and hey! another project type to start adding to Pretzel Lectern.

Lost Projects Vol. 1

Lost Projects Vol. 1

You all know I love projects, that I'm sentimental and nostalgic, and that I like creating things. Unfortunately, I have not always been as careful as I should have when preserving projects. I have silly audio files from when I was a Fourth Grader, and tablet drawings from much earlier that I've saved all these years, but there are some projects in between now and then that have slipped between my fingers and into the unknown... forever. My purpose with this post is to at least preserve their memory, and wistfully wish that I could have them to showcase for you today.

Relic Short Story: Journey to the Center of the Earth

Hi! I haven't forgotten Pretzel Lectern, I've just been working hard at updating Knight Guy as often as possible, which is an extension of this blog since it's a project. If you haven't looked at it yet, check it out!

Meanwhile, I've been nostalgically poring through old Wordperfect files on my Ark (that's the name of my external hard drive) and I found this rather funny gem of a story I wrote. The date on the file says 2/20/02 and is stamped as an assignment for my 7th-grade Geology class. I'm not sure what our assignment was, because this is laughably scientifically inaccurate. Enjoy!

Spotlight: How I Draw Comics

I've been having a blast drawing my new webcomic, Knight Guy, and I even spent some time outlining the entire epic story from start to finish, which is something rare for me. I sincerely hope that my motivation for this awesome project will remain strong till I finish; I understand it'll take me years to complete it, but I'm okay with that.
