The time of sedentary sadness is almost over
« on: February 25, 2015, 09:34:32 AM »
A few more months till warm weather and no more school. I've not been on the boards much due to school and working on my 3d art, but soon the cb500 rebuild will continue. The winters hiatus has given me time to collect parts and make a better plan. This should lead to a beautiful repaint and easier rebuild.

BTW the 3d art has gotten better too.

This guys not completely finished, but it's an example of what I've been doing.
I'm hoping to get out of IT and into the video game industry.
