Applying for the God of War

I had a little down time at work.  I am very happy how this came out.  I was testing multiplying, overlay and normal settings.  Each character has a layer for those colors.  Than after I was done with them I put an multiply texture on top to give it a grunge feel.  I hope you enjoy and I had fun with Kali and Wrinkle the White Knight

My issue with the Xbox 360 Fifa 12 hack

I am a very laid back guy and do not ask for trouble.... but trouble always finds a way.

Over a week ago I was introduced to the Fifa 2012 hack.  Within a fast period my account was hacked, charged over $125 and I was locked out.  Many thoughts ran through mind.  Frustration that this even happened, that it was through my live account, that I don't have access to my save data and all my Microsoft devices were messed up.  This includes my phone, my zune and of course my console.  As soon as I found out I called xbox 360 customer support.  They actually worked very well for me.  They locked my account and started the recovery process.  After I got off the phone I cancelled my credit card, just in case that was stolen.  Within three days they had my account back in my hands and I had access to everything.  (Except for access to my live account on my phone.  That is just a bad design flaw).  Now this is where it gets weird.  My account was in my hands, but it had the same name in the email as the one that stole, but it was to a different @ location.  There was already a second email attached to it that I did not own.  This freaked me out.  I quickly got on the phone and xbox customer support helped me.  everything was secured and I haven't had problems since knock on wood.

I still would like a more official statement as to why this is happening.  There are two coincidences I can't ignore, the hack happened a few hours after I put Microsoft points on my account and the whole second email being attached.  This feels like an inside job more and more.  I wish there was also more security measures were in place.  I would pay to have a usb dongle that would recover my live account, reset my password and that way I know I could always keep it safe.   This is just a rant more frustrated that he was bothered by a stupid scam than anything else.  I will say it sounds like I am an exception though to what has happend.  Most are locked out for 30 days or more.  I hope that others that go through this are lucky like me and recover it fast.

Coyote Log Cover February 2010

This is one of my earlier covers.  I combined a photo I took of a pilot kissing his wife and a photo my boss took of Airmen returning home.  I really liked this cover and this cover allowed me to start getting more creative with the covers.  Also I started a pattern of putting planes into the Coyote Log wording each month.  I think I am the only one that changes it.

Frog Man

I feel like this guy came out of left field.  A fisherman, mixed with a frog, mixed with a walrus mustache.  The walrus mustaches is pretty epic.

This is Kip the Evil Leprechaun Penguin.  I love the idea of this character.  I have a few comics I might post on here.   I used him as a texture and brushes test in photo shop.  We'll see if he goes anywhere.
