(*Trainee)
G'day everyone!
I think I mentioned in the past I've started volunteering at a steam railway? Well last Saturday I had my first official day as a Trainee Conductor, which aside from having a heck of a lot to do (especially when I ended up going on two runs) was actually lots of fun, but also lots of standing and incredibly exhausting. I am quite glad I'm only doing this once a fortnight. (Still finding soot in my hair though. Makes great research for depicting Torkoal too haha)
Also found a huge plot hole in my Ranger mission script the other day, so I've been redrafting the whole thing. Thankfully we've the partial extension, so I'm aiming to have my Part 2 up by early/mid-Wednesday. (And then have the afternoon to fix anything I might've missed since I won't have any time Thursday to patch it.)
Afterwards my next big thing will be for Requiem Signs' Mission 3. Still got quite a few other things I'd like to do so we'll see what happens. Especially since I've no idea how the rangers will be involved in the next BFOI round.
Finally I've still got my test commission open if anyone is interested in seeing if I've got things working correctly?

Edit: For those of you playing at home, 'Condutor Alix' is my alias when playing Compeditive Pokemon online, complete with Depot Agent sprite. Also it's my current profile picture haha.

okay fine I'll post a status... as a journal! :p ^ is why I'm here; didn't realise 'no to all' wasn't implemented yet. Not sure what they were thinking there, but better to rip the band-aid off and acknowledge flaws. I'll share what I commented there. "Images that come from Bias Automation (Neural Networks, so-called 'AI') are a pain to deal with as fanatics embrace them as 'art'; I can appreciate that embracing them so that they may be curated appropriately is a smart way to handle them, but it's still a loose-loose scenario." I can still wax poetic when I need to! :D (Really icy? "fanatics embrace them ... that embracing them"? I used to be better at catching repeating adjectives. :frown:) G'day! I'm still around on other corners of the interwhens. Work leaves little energy for creativity, but just in case my page is borked by dA updates, hoenniswheretheheartis.tumblr.com is still me~ Also if you wanna say hi or something and don't have tumblr (join the hellsite (affectionate)
Winding up
dA's been great and all, but it's been too long since I actually used it to find new art. Especially since most people I follow now cross-post on other sites and all that. (oh, and there's the whole thing where I haven't made time or effort to put any actual artsy stuff o'er here.)
So yeah, moving on from dA over this coming week.
Think I've really said my piece in the previous journal -->
There's some contact info in the id box above (given you're reading this off my da Profile) if you're after me.
Ciao!
10 chill years...
Woah, what's this!? A journal from icy?? in 2019!?!?

Yeah, so last Sunday (28th of April) this account ticked over the ten year mark. That's... that's a pretty significant milestone.
I think it started so I could follow TamarinFrog (https://www.deviantart.com/tamarinfrog)'s Random Doom comics and then I just uploaded this and that. So let's skip the meem templates and just do a retrospective, eh?

Yay!! Piece No: 1!! Someday I'll look back on this and think WOW!!
Or not.
Well past me, maybe not 'WOW!!' but I guess you liked Lucario and the Mystery of Mew?
2009
Made a pretty cool Darkari out of lego that year. Shame it kept falling apart.

Oh
I played a game about dragons from outer space...
Update 9/1/17 - Found this old journal draft from late November, let's put it up here to feign activity, ja? I'll put in fixes like this if I see anything out of place.

Figure it was about time I mentioned where I was at and all that haha...
It took some time for that spark to catch on, however now here I am in a new group on dA and meeting lots of really nice people. Surprisingly some from Melbourne! I mean that's never happened before! Is this what it's like to join OCTs and RP groups overseas; to have such a strong chance of meeting people who aren't thousands of kilometres away from you at best??
Haha, in any case I'm looking forwa
