Hey! My dad is dating Carol (your mom's friend) and Carol kept telling me about your work, so I found your deviant art and your work is REALLY good. I hope I can become as good an artist as you someday!

well just assumed since you were working on it
but i guess since you were in on the whole trip there werent much surprises in the game itself.

I myself havent played it yet but would love to one day, seems pretty good

artqueen23 In reply to ZombiDJ [2009-10-29 07:56:05 +0000 UTC]

I was just teasing I loved playing the game. There were even some parts I didnt see yet since I was so focused on finishing my levels I hope you get time to play it soon it is really fun.Though I think the second level is a bit to hard.

Yes, I hear good things about working for Insomniac. Are you planning to go to college for this someday and do you plan to model and texture or do programming?

ZombiDJ In reply to artqueen23 [2009-10-29 17:37:38 +0000 UTC]

no idea but its always been a dream. thing is im rather slow and picky with my art
only collage i went to was art collage. but we didnt do anything 3D related.
I always thought id be a concept artist but theyre all taken and theyre really picky with who they choose

artqueen23 In reply to ZombiDJ [2009-10-29 19:07:08 +0000 UTC]

Well do some research and pick something lady Life is short and if you want to do something you love for a livin' you gotta get going and work hard. I would pick something besides concept to go into first because getting a concept job in the game industry is the toughest niche ever.Not that it couldnt be an end goal but getting in the industry in a related field will help you.The industry needs ladies so make it happen

The writer and main director of Uncharted is a woman(Amy Hennig) so she knows what we like I am so happy people are liking this game. You never know in development of a product exactly how it will come together in the end.
