It's been forever since I was on TL, but I got all nostalgic the other day after re-watching one of my old interview videos. Anyway, it'd be lovely to catch up with some of the crew from the old days if anyone is still around? :D

As for me, I've gotten a steady job now, moved to a new city, and have been with my lovely girlfriend for almost a year now. I still miss my old photography days, but keep busy photographing certain other things beyond pro-gamers.

I'm also active on the UK anime/sci-fi convention scene now, and am hoping to photograph cosplayers at some upcoming events (as well as running my first stall with my GF, and a workshop at a local convention in August).

I've been cosplaying a bit myself too. My latest project (still a WIP) is the Light Woman from The Evil Within's 1st DLC. I can't walk in heels, or see anything but the floor in it, but it's been fun to make.

Anyway, hi to anyone who still remembers an old fart like me from back in the SC:BW days. I want to hear what everyone else has been up to :D

I remember you! But you don't know me since I'm just a lurker/sometimes poster

Great to hear you're doing well, I really enjoyed the awesome photo's you took for all of us not-in-Korea fans back in the day.

Looking good! Is the sheet you're wearing supposed to be short?

Thank you nadafanboy42 :D

@BigFan ~ It's actually iron in curtain lining because a sheet would have been too smooth to take the paint as messily as I needed it to go on. I got it super cheap at a local craft stall. It is meant to be short, but it's way too short right now, so there will be a lower layer added, so I can fix the front port-hole on more securely/not show too much at the convention

Anyone from the old days knows your incredible work. Miss it! Maybe we can see some of your more recent photography? What are you focusing on these days?

:D Thank you. I really miss being able to provide it too >.< I also miss photographing people as opposed to inanimate objects. I've mostly been doing ball jointed doll photography lately using a new set up (my EOS5D pretty much kicked the bucket, so I swapped over to a cheaper Canon in the mean time).

Here's a few photos from the last few months. (Please don't comment saying my dolls are 'creepy' or anything. I don't want to hear it. I'm also not looking for con-crit on my pictures right now, thanks.)

However, I really, really want to shoot cosplayers this year as well as dolls :D Plus maybe some more nature photos although it's kind of difficult now I don't live so close to a really lovely park T^T

Hiya <3 Thank you. That's probably still one of the pictures I'm most proud of :D

@Lonyo ~ One can never have too many cat pics.

I wish I had more cats to photograph, dammit.

Do you buy the dolls like that or do you paint them?

Edit: Would you mind spoilering the images so it's easy to collapse them? <3

Thanks Disciple :D I'll try to get a bit more involved from time to time :D

@Psyonic_Reaver ~ You can buy them either way. Some people get them painted by the companies which make them, some buy them to paint themselves, and some (myself included) get them painted by artists who do commissions specifically for these types of dolls. A lot of my friends in the community are talented face up (the term for painting their faces), artists, so I usually commission them. I also bought most of my dolls second hand, so they came with face ups already done. They're super customizable, so you can change a lot about them including their paint jobs easily.

the hair on those dolls are AMAZING. the faces also look anime, yet 3D. pretty cool. I wouldn't mind a Stork/Jaedong ball jointed doll.

Anyways, are you following SC2?

Your pictures helped make the proscene real, with real people and real places. More than just games. That inspired me enough to bother to go all across the world, just to visit places like iPARK mall. Totally worth it. So thanks for humanizing it all.
