Shit! Went to a meeting at work, and I missed it!
My first Chell render test soared past 50,000 views while I wasn't looking.
This weekend was in-fucking-sane, with Reddit attention resulting in my Portal short "Companionship" showing up on GameInformer and Kotaku, and now other gaming sites in Spain and Croatia, and who knows where else?
One thing's for certain, there's no way I'm below Valve's radar any more, so I can only hope that they don't hate what I'm doing with their baby.

Da Fuq happened this week?
The last couple of days, out of nowhere, my pageviews spiked up to about 600% of my typical measly daily numbers. But no images got slammed with faves or comments, nothing at all to indicate what might have suddenly brought a rush of people to my page for about 48 hours. Wha'appen?
Almost 70K page views!
I'm at 69,999 pageviews, people!
Send a screen grab as proof that you're #70K, and I'll try to come up with some kind of reward. Don't pressure me, I'm neck-deep in Portal short work and only just noticed this right now!

Portal short, COMPANIONSHIP: long-overdue update!
Hey all!
For those who've wondered about the progress of this short, it's kind of a long story. After the major coverage that emerged over my Portal fan film, "Companionship", a ton of people wanted to get involved, and thanks to my artistic naivete and my inexperience with such overwhelming attention, I fell into an age-old pitfall: "scale creep".
The short version: what started as a tiny little personal project quickly ballooned into a major one, and last year it essentially collapsed under its own weight! What normally happens at that point is that the film simply dies, gets abandoned, and becomes a regrettable memory.
But too many
