Another screenshot from the new project I'm working on. Dr Sylver 3 is dated for the week commencing October 10th this year so it's exciting to have a release date to hang on it and now, teacher training portfolio aside (which I REALLY must get onto although the irony of that statement is subject to a confidential document I can't share with anyone) I'm now full time on this project and one other. Roll on July 3rd when I can start giving attention to them with less guilty feelings alongside.
This week has also been defined by uber athletes foot (which erupted in blood and other disgustingness on my big toe) and then a night of 'both ends fighting the middle' as one of my colleagues charmingly put it. Whether it was a bug caught from the doctor's waiting room or an allergic reaction to the foot cream I don't know but Tues - Thurs were not comfortable days. At all. Today is the first day I've been up to much so, like a twit, I walked son boy to the shop to buy a Slush Puppy (which came out with a completely different name on my phone when I tried to text wifey) and came back feeling like a poached slug. Still, it's been a very positive day too so that's a good 'un.
Also: did this y-day using Brushes on the iPod touch. It's surprising in a way - I'm so used to tools and layers and modes and styles and warps and filters - but Brushes is a joy to play with and watch the results. When I see the movie file play away I see areas that I would have changed had I not seen them from the outside in so it's a fascinating process. I noticed @skottieyoung did a similar thing using (I think) Artrage Pro and Ustream in an interactive fashion. Not that I'm anywhere near having an audience such as his but that seems the nest step in the Brushes play - to have people chatting as I go but hey, step by step and all that.
