Through all the changes of life and evolution of character there are few constants in ones life that remains steadfast and true, ardent to its core. For me, one of these things was Space. Since a young age I have always wanted to be an astronaut. A great part of my childhood was spent outside wrapped up in a warm duvet gazing at our universe through a pair of strong binoculars. I had/have a very steady hand and unquelchable determination. Thus the love of sci-fi and curse of being a Trekkie. Even though I've never had a natural inclination towards Maths and Science it still remains a dream. What dreams are crawling around in the crevices of your mind?

What to do for Valentines Day has always been one of those troublesome considerations for me. Society expects us to be seated at a cutlery laden surface cave-lit by a dim fire source as someone who is trying to get into your pants attempts to woo you over the ritualistic mastication of foods. What is for me? My lower half will be playing footsie with the one I love while my upper half kicks ass in the Mass Effect 3 demo being released on Valentines Day. Shared game time will be our gift to each other smile This may sound pathetic but I don't think I've ever been this excited for a Valentines Day love



Cool stuff!



Thank you guys so much for the warm welcome you have shown to the new South African hopefuls Autrum and Vassilis. Hoping to see them on front page soon!

Other sets that I REALLY am dying to see make it to front page!

SPOILERS! (Click to view)
Tarion - Wandering Star

Interesting fact #1: poor Tarion was sick for two weeks after the set because it was deathly cold, we shot this in the beginning of winter.
Interesting face #2: this set was technically shot over 2 days, some of the end photos were shot super early the following morning.
Interesting fact #3: during another day before this whilst shooting another set the ocean rushed up to me and mugged me of a flippy flop, whilst we wrapped up this set the special cameo lady at the end of the set stumbled upon another single flippy flop washed ashore; it was not my flippy flop; the Pacific Ocean has a flippy flop fetish.

I am absolutely humbled by the high percentage love and comment count on all of these sets and extremely proud of my South African girls. We do not have many local members on the site so understandably our support base is not quite as large as it could be otherwise but I believe that's what makes us try all that much harder, which is an extremely good thing smile The day you stop trying to produce work that is better than what you've done before is the day your passion dies.

Live Long and Prosper;
and remember to maintain your flame.

I love reading your blogs! They never fail to have beauty, humor or lovely inspirational comments. smile I was so torn looking at those book reliefs (not sure if that's right)... I wanted to be really upset because I love to read and the books were done for, but the little worlds they made were so detailed and beautiful. smile I wanted to explore space for the longest time, at least until I saw the g force test! Yikes! What is your favorite part of space? smile

Vassilis will go front page for sure, she's a gorgeous lady.
Valentine's day makes me feel a little bit ill. Enforced romance is just not romantic!

You have a bit of man hands going in your astronaught pic :p
I don't wanna play the demo for mass effect I am saving myself for the game, purity ring style.
Harmonised romantic gameplaying rocks we have been doing it at my house with Skyrim. Fun to see how each others character develops.
Miss you!

Hey! You didn't wake me with the sms I got it when I woke up for my interview I hope I didnt wake you up with the reply lol. I didn't get a call back over 500 people pitched up to hand in their CVs. So very very slim chances, also I dont know if im kidding myself with the whole covering up my tattoo's thing just to get into this industry. I want it sooo bad but its so much god dam effort to hide shit I'm not ashamed of and in the process start to feel that way cause its such a no-no
