Hey folks,
This is just a quick post to boomerate (read: publicly announce) my public art-whoring.
I recently submitted "The Muses #2" (AKA "The Muse 2") for consideration as my first piece on threadless.com, the famous tee-shirt art-atorium. It got approved by the gods of Mt. Threadlympus, which means that from now up through the next 6 days, it will be available for voting. SO GO VOTE!!!
If you don't already have a threadless account, it literally takes like 10 seconds to sign up, it's completely free, and they never spam you or do anything annoying once you're signed up. You can pretty much sign up, vote, and forget the site even exists if you want (but don't do that, because it's actually a pretty dope site. I promise.).
Check out "The Muse 2" on Threadless by following the link below! Here's hoping your votes make some magic happen!
Love, peace, and funnel cakes.
- Fred
P.S. -- in between grad school, work, and other such life stuff, I am still working on Gun. I promise, I haven't abandoned it. Just in case you were wondering/gave a damn. :)

It's been months... I know.
I don't feel like writing a bunch of shit here. I'm feeling lazy and irritated, so I'm just providing dribbles to reorient you folks who were too fucking lazy to read the blog.
1. There are two Heretik Studios now. Two different cities. So I guess the moniker is legit now. Unfortunately, the one locale in which I find myself more frequently is relatively useless in terms of work on my creative projects. It's more of a concept center, while the original location is more of the execution center.
2. I have explored codes recently that will allow me to expand the capabilities of the redesign by leaps and bounds... ok maybe I'm exaggerating here a bit, but still they're pretty fucking cool.
3. Read the blog you lazy shits...

Episode 2 of Gun is slowly but surely coming to finalization. I posted a little video blogcast about a small, insignificant animation sequence that I worked on a couple days ago. I wasn't too happy with it.
Maybe let me know if I'm being too picky, or offer some animating tips for future reference, if you know any cool techniques that would help with it.
Check it out on the Heretik Studios blog - The Heretik Times
Peace.

Working is a bitch.
Gun charges on. I sit here night after night, gritting through this shit. I've said it so many times, even I'm starting to get sick of hearing it. I am going to finish this fucking episode. The muscle spasms have returned, and it worries me somewhat. But I've learned to ignore them and just do the work anyway. Even if it takes me all day and all night. I said I'd release it, and I will.
Fuck sleep. Sleep is overrated... sleep is... ov...
