Coming and Going, Up and Down

We all have our ups and downs. I have my ups and downs. Sometimes I am inspired, I find myself bursting with passion, wanting to create something as these amazing ideas come to my mind. I find myself inspired and my ambitions sore, that progress will be made, and that my destiny is just around the corner and that breakthrough is nearly at hand. Or rather, the beginning of the fullness of my destiny. But really, we are all in our destiny in one phase or another I believe. Maybe we mess up, and we find ourselves learning from mistakes, so that we won't make those mistakes again. Those lessons learned from those hard times are critical. Or perhaps we might be in the very beginning of becoming who we are meant to be. But we are in our destiny, always and in some way or another.

We all go through that, well I do anyways. You go so high, and you feel as though God is behind you pushing you. Then there are those times when we wonder what happened. We look around and wonder why everything is so hard all the sudden. Why inspiration or hope is lost in your heart. Maybe you feel alone. Maybe you feel as though there is no point to carry on with what God had created you for. As though your giftings and callings have no effect. That has happened to me many a time in some way or another, yet I always find myself back at the top, breathing in the air God created for me.

Why am I saying all this? I'm not really sure. The inspiration is just there for it. May as well strike while the iron is hot right?

All this to say really, that these things happen to me on the occasion. I might start a project, get it done, then totally lose all inspiration to continue on. Carrying on your own after so long can take its toll at times. Then I will get over it, and push into God. With this He gives me inspiration to meet my goals, even if they may seem incredibly far away at the time. But I know that each step takes me closer and closer to that shining light off in the distance. Likely most of you have similar feelings and experiences happen to you at some point.

With all that said, I would like to loop you all in on what I'm doing. I may not know exactly whats going to happen when, and I may not know when the breakthrough financially (and everything else) will come, but I know that it will. With that, I continue to hone my skills.

And now... Maybe as well show my progress right?

So... basically here is the latest work in progress of what I'm doing so you all can see what it is I'm doing. I usually have some big goal for what I'm working on, but this one is just kind of for fun (still for my portfolio and very much a work in progress).


By the time I'm done with him, he will have pants (yay for pants!), maybe some shoes, a glove on the left hand I think, and who knows what else. He's kinda a steam punk goblin inventor adventurer kind of guy. : )

Also, if you have stuck through to this part, I have officially posted the video of my Wandering Knight character on Youtube. Check it out! And before I go on, I'd just like to thank Tyler Smith for the contribution to this video. He made the music!


If you'd like to see more, then just check out my newly redesigned website: 

And here are just a couple pics of him.



And there we go! Thanks you guys for checking this out, and check back later for more! :)
