One more quick update for the day, then I am off to San Francisco for a week! After a LONG month working on Game Informer’s Indie Week and the Portal 2 cover story, I took Thursday and Friday off to catch up on some R&R. And attend a convention, naturally.
Game Informer Issue 204: Portal 2
I’ve been dying to talk about this issue for well over a month – and not just because Portal 2 is an amazing game. The reason that I have been so excited to share is because I was given the opportunity to write the cover story. Being my first cover story, I was terrified/stoked out of my mind, but the entire experience went perfectly.
Game Informer: Indie Week 2010
If you’ve been following my blog long enough, you may remember the extensive independent games coverage I rolled out last year following the 11th Annual IGF awards. As part of my research I was in contact with several IGF chair members, who later asked me to be a judge in the competition this year! I’ve played somewhere around 40 indie games over the past few months, which gave me extra time to prep for Indie Week 2010 at Gameinformer.com.
Wonder Woman By Douglas Shuler
Douglas Shuler is officially my hero. As if his amazing Zatanna piece wasn’t enough, Doug recently asked me to collaborate on a Wonder Woman tribute with some stellar results.
Pocket Zombie Charity Pack: Put Meagan In Your Pocket For 99¢
Another drive-by blog! The long and short is that I have been zombified in the name of fun…and charity. If you have an iPhone you can now find me in Pocket Zombie where I am currently part of the Zombie Girlfriend Charity Pack. You can get all of the details below, which I regurgitated from my post on gameinformer.com for lack of time! If you get the game let me know what you think!
New Gift Art By BurningInkWorks!
I just wanted to post a super quick update to share a cool new piece of gift art based on my Wonder Woman tribute to Michael Turner. The most amazing thing about this new piece is that it is all burned into wood. The illustration is done by a method known as Pyrography. I’ve pasted his description of the process below.
Custom Vinyl: Silent Hill Staples
I’ve been on a bit of a Silent Hill kick the past few weeks and these little guys are the reason why. After creating my first custom Munny figures a few weeks back, I began feverishly debating what I should take on next. I almost instantly had my mind made up to pay tribute to BioShock with a Big Daddy and Big Sister duo, but got sidetracked by the thought of bringing to life two of Silent Hill’s most iconic monstrosities – Pyramid Head and a Nurse. Trapping myself into finishing these guys this week, I preemptively tied my CosBlog entry on Wednesday to Silent Hill. If you haven’t checked it out yet, do so here!
Cosplay Feature: Left 4 Dead
Minnesota is known for many things, one of them being the annual Zombie Pub Crawl. I don’t know of other such gatherings across the nation, so I’m going to go ahead and make a totally unverified/bias claim and say that ours is the best Zombie Pub Crawl in the world. Especially because they allow zombie hunters to join in on the fun.
Cosplay Feature: Bearers Of The Blade
I’m somehow playing catch-up again, still archiving costumes from SDCC 2009. But better later than never! This costume/project was as much fun as it was work – heaps of both. Considering I had already figured out the mechanics of crafting a Witchblade gauntlet from my prior two costumes, the execution itself wasn’t overly strenuous. It was the organization that got a tad overwhelming.
