Moving my Blog :)

Everyone:

Thanks for visiting my blog, I really appreciate it. I have noticed that for the past few months all the pictures in my blog disappear and are replaced with some goofy drawing of a guy holding a sign that says: “Monthly Transfer limit exceeded”.

Ok honestly I have no idea what blog.com is talking about. I am assuming I am getting too many hits but as far as I knew this was supposed to be a free website and did not expect having problems such as this. So since this blog is about the work that I do and that the primary nature of my work is the visual aspect of it then having this goofy drawing in place of my work totally defeats the purpose of having my blog on this site so that’s why I decided to move it.

My apologies to all who have visited my blog only to find this drawing. I will have more details on the new blog once I have created it which will be very soon. Please come back and visit, I really appreciate your visits and comments. Thank you everyone and I will keep you all posted.

-Mando.

My F-14 vs a real F-14 Take 2

Here is another picture with my F-14 and a real one (mine is in the background). I would have placed mine in the front but the real one is too big. I might do it in the near future and see how it comes out.

My F-14 vs a real F-14

Here I have my F-14 (on the top) and a real F-14, there are some small differences between the 2 but overall I think its pretty good.

I’m back …

Well let’s see, I have not posted anything since June of last year. Needless to say I have been very busy; recently a friend of mine asked why I have not posted anything since last year. And I told him that well I just hadn’t, so after that I decided to post again. What has kept me so busy? Work; I am currently working as a Technical Artist at Midway games in Chicago and due to the amount of work I just have not had much time to work on my modeling much less post anything on my blog. By the way I am not much of a blog posting person to begin with, if you see my older posts they are straight forward and to the point. So I would say this entry will probably be the longest one I have typed and will be for a long time to come. But back to the modeling, even though I have not modeled a lot of things since my last post I did not forget and do want to keep on modeling, and so I did. So being that I love aircraft of all kinds I decided to model and texture as realistically as possible an F-14a Tomcat. I think it came out pretty good although looking back on it I know I could do much better. Honestly looking back at some of the work I previously posted I think I can do much, much, much, much better than what I did. I think that’s how everyone feels about their work, they see older stuff and say “oh no I did that?” and I am not different. But don’t misunderstand me, I am very proud of the work I did and stand by 100% but I can now see all the mistakes and what I could have done better. And I think that’s what its all about, doing something, learning from it and then come back later and do something even better. Well enough blogging (blah, blah, blah). Here is my F-14a Tomcat.
