Okay, time for another Journal Entry!

Being alone really seems to suck me off...I've always been a little Scrooge during Christmas time but this Christmas was horrible . I mean...it didn't mean anything to me and I don't feel more like Christmas than half a year ago. All the people bothering me and expecting me to show up on their parties while pretending to be happy... :/
However, I tried not to insult them, I just didn't obey their expectations and I had my own rather Christmas free Cristmas.

The interview our band gave last week was recorded by a local radio channel und will be broadcasted next week (no, you won't be able to receive it and it's in German ).
We are now having a Myspace account, click on the band portrait below to get there and listen to the sound!
Well...umm...it's in German...because we like texts containing a high amount of sense as well as style of speech and we only can ensure that in our native language. Yes. xD
Sound qality is reduced and I wasn't able to record all bass lines up to now. We will change the computer drums into real drum soon. I somehow like the artifical drums but...naaaaah





Coming up:
more studio macros, especially shots from minerals
Movie trailer collab, containing my 3D-Mountain fly-by animation!!
hopefully I'll submit some more digital drawings - I'm practicing...from time to time...
shots of some skaters I met, tried to freeze their jumps...but not totally
shots of water fountains - first experiences with freezing water in time
trying to go on with that 'The Day After' stuff
other Mojoworld scenes are waiting to be rendered
real 3D stuff using Maya

Legend: = work in progress; = could take a while; = currently frozen; = project canceled
















This is an animation I made for the trailer of a movie, it's reduced in size (0.5x) and the compession is very strong (XviD quality 89) so the image quality is terrible...you need a DivX codec to run it but I'm sure you already have this ). Left or right click on the image to do whith the animation whatever your browser supports:







12 inch project:
This is a 3D-model of the desing I use for the tube, I will enhance this model while making progress whith the project:



I bought the missing 2 aluminum pipes, now they are all complete and I just have to find time and the will to work on them.

Material listing:
8x 25 mm x 25 mm x 2000 mm aluminium pipes.................................about 164 $
screws with nuts (100x), M5x40 mm..............................................................11 $
[these small metal discs which are to put between screw and truss] (250x)...7 $



8 inch project:



The 8 " mirror ist spherical now. Phase 1 of 3 ist finished, I'm now up to smooth it out until it's smooth enough for polishing and parabolisation.



I will complete detach the screwed up 8 " tube. The wire brush isn't able to get off the colour so I have to do it using a solvent. :/
