Walking Round Milan at Night

Not last weekend but the one before I had the unfortunate experience of being out in Milan at night time without transportation home. I can tell you right now that's not going to happen again.

Elena and I were out on our own, bar hopping in as much as we hopped to 3 different bars (it was a good night, try Ragoo- it's far but nice) when at 3amish we decided it was time to go home. Outside Plastic, we looked for cabs and since we found none decided to walk to one of the apartment buildings nearby and call for a cab from there because normally they're pretty bad about coming to a club at night. No answer at any of the cab numbers. We started to walk towards Elena's but still found no cabs. What we did find however were hordes of sexist and offensive men screaming obscenities at us and generally making the whole ordeal more unpleasant that it already was. And I was in heels.

So what's the moral of the story? I don't know!?! Maybe that you shouldn't go out past your bedtime or you'll turn into a pumpkin...

Happy Halloween

Well, halloween has come and gone with as much success as last year. I attempted for the last time to hold a halloween to-do at my place and it fell into six people sitting around eating chicken for 14. The six that turned up had fun though.

In other news I got a contract to do some work and I'm waiting on the details, but it should be pretty good once it gets going.

I'm trying to decide whether or not to go to the gym for something called flexible strength, but I'm not sure... it's at 3 and I want to have pizza and a nap first. Hey! No laughing! I've been working all morning long!! No one can say I'm a lazy bones!!

Here's a few projects I'm working on. The first is the preliminary modelling for Doughie, the main character in the short film I want to create for my thesis project this year.

The second is the starts to a rendering I'm trying to do which should be photorealistic of a diner.

Don't get excited about the ring image... it's not something I've recently added to my collection or something. It's not a photo, just 3D. I'm pretty happy about how the image turned out as it was an afternoon worth of work and helped me land that contract I mentioned.
