So, here it is, my inaugural video for my Eternal Pupil blog! I am pretty happy overall with how it turned out, although me holding the camera probably wasn't the best choice... hopefully this works, I am not used to embedding on blogger. oh, hey, here is a thought: Want some new characters for SSF4:AE? I have an idea, lets get Capcom to release a flavor of it on the Vita! IF they decided to do that, they'd probably provide additional incentives to buy the game on another platform, and perhaps port those additions to consoles!

Well, I am back for a stint, folks. I should probably change a few things around here, since it may not be entirely relevant. Since making this page I have stopped maining Juri (even though she's really good in AEv2012) and had picked up Ibuki, Rufus, Fei Long, and eventually my current main, Oni. I initially created this as a way to hold myself accountable to playing how I wanted too; as a person who can always learn something new. I want to approach each match I play as a learning experience, and try to improve as a player. I've let that languish a bit, partially due to work and partially due to burnout on the genre. Thankfully, with my brother, Brutalion, getting back into SF4 and Mahvel, I'm starting to dust off the games as well. Along with this "rebirth" comes some new ideas. I am considering doing a VLog on my blogger, hopefully making a companion youtube account (or using an existing one, I haven't figured out how "shows" work yet). Perhaps commentating on my own matches, posting my epic L's and maybe some wins. I would love to get constructive criticism, and my goal is to help other players, whether it be seeing casual players struggling too (the whole camaraderie aspect) or any intuition/advice I may be able to provide. Blind-leading-the-blind sort of thing. These are all just ideas until I implement them. Until then, I have a ton of drawing projects that are started and unfinished, including my new TE stick art. I wanted to do my art from scratch this time instead of using stock art or deviantart drawings. I'm pretty happy with it so far. The sketching I'm getting good at, the inking/coloring is...another story. But I will do it! eventually.
I'm also very patiently waiting for my ProjectGiantSword to get finished. I'm case 75 I think and he's on 50 something. They're looking sweet, I can't wait to see the art he comes up with! I'll leave you with this: I'm working hard to pick up Rufus, which is hard to do, since he's so fat.
