Read the full article Warhammer 40K Map UpdateAfter a long period with little change, over this past week I’ve made much more progress on the design and functionality of my map.

Read the full article Abbey Kindergarten WebsiteI’ve been working on portfolio designs for the last month. I had a cool tea box that I was using as inspiration but I just couldn’t get the right look, despite cooking up 7 different versions. You can see the best of this terrible bunch on the left.

Most of the work had been done by last Friday in terms of the main code and the copywriting.
