Aside from good illustration, or things that make me laugh, I'm also a real sucker for top notch graphc design, interface design, and photography. I like to favorite the things that make me think "I need to try this."

First DA-Only Private TF2 Match Later Tonight!

Journal Entry: Sun Jul 5, 2009, 3:37 AM
Based on the poll, it seems like we'll have enough people to join for some good full matches tonight. So for those of you who don't have the availability for it THIS TIME, don't worry! I'll definitely set up other games in the future for the other time zones, and don't be shy about setting up your own server to play against fellow deviants!

  • DETAILS
So, tonight around 8:30PM or 9:00PM [EST / GMT-5:00] I will open up a lobby that you guys can join. The poll results landed a good number for 8PM, 10PM, and 11PM EST, so it seems like starting up around that time would work best as an average.

It will be password protected since I want these matches to be fellow DA artists only. So those who want to get in will get the password from me through Steam. If you're already on my Steam list, the match will be easy to find since you can just request to join, but if you're coming in new, send me a message through steam or add me as a friend. My steam account name is FoxOrian if you don't have it. The server name will have "DeviantART" in the title.

Voice chat is encouraged! So bring a mic / headset if you have one!
If not, don't be afraid of the in game text chat :)

Also remember that your Steam name is probably different from your DA account name haha -- if you're going to participate tonight, change your Steam Nickname to your DA account so we know who you are!

Above: My character Maia who's the main protagonist in my graphic novel-in-progress, SYNTHESIS. I've been drawing her forever.



I'm a bit of a jack-of-all-trades between illustration, photography, and graphic design, but my true focus lies within Illustration. My illustration centers around conceptual art design, as I enjoy creating characters, vehicles, environments, and narratives. My style tends to lean much more toward technical things than organic. My mind loves to think about mechanics, gadgetry, and urban life.

Swedish design is a very big influence on my work. So it's no wonder that Mirror's Edge is a god among men for me :3
~Plombard:iconPlombard: 6 days 1 hour ago

I mean, your work is auite impressive in terms of architecture and composition...^^
I wish I could be that good someday...^^;

Brilliant works! It's hard not to love the Mirror's Edge motif you've got going. Character designs and settings feel great. Use of color and your technical execution is, IMO top notch.

Looking forward to more. :thumbsup:

Sorry, every time I hear that I can't help but think of the line from the incredibles,
"Wow, YOU sir really are Mr. Incredible. You know I was right to idolize you? To trick the pro by hiding under the bones of another Super?1 Oh MAN! I'm still geekin' out about it!"
