Awesome stuff, Sky! You should fly here to the States and see if a big-biz game producer like EA or Bungie will hire you. You could be the guy who will make the aliens I'll be shooting! :)

My interests are of similar dimensions to yours, except I am more of a game programer rather than a 3D model-maker.
hehe... and of course I love to mod and hack whatever I can get my grubby little fingers on, I ordred this 3rd party hardware from eBay, an "Xport 360", it lets me dock my Xbox 360 harddrive and plug it into my computer via a USB port, so that way I can do myself all kinds of things Microsoft would no doubt frown upon. :P

So the construction industry must be taking a hard hit? Sorry about your job, hope you can find a method of income soon.

Yeah - we've taken a big hit... not in the borough's are spending any money which is where most of our revenues came from - Borough or Township jobs and Hospitals. They currently have 5 200k bidded jobs going right now. When 6+ months ago we'd have 20+ jobs going at a time where half of them were bidded at multi-million dollars a piece. My boss was pissed that she had to lay me off, I think she's expecting a disaster in the office because a lot had been taken on by me that hadn't been done in my position before and now to try and teach a receptionist that... isn't going to work very well. Oh well not my problem now.
