Black Sheep

My last free wednsday of 2006. But I don't complain, I am in holiday from 22nd until 2nd January.

That will give me ample time to work on the Foxhole, which by now has reached a total length of 5 minutes. I guess i will have to shoot another 10 minutes before the complete story is finished. Tomorrow, Daniel and Jeffrey will come watch these rushes. I hope they like the material up till now.

I also intend to write some additional stories during my holiday. Although I just started publishing the first chapter of the Black Sheep, I am already working on a new storyline, based on the Fortress Europe campaign for Il-2. At the same time I already finished another campaign, Yaks over Memel, which will also appear in a blog novel.

I also started to experiment with photoshop to edit the screenshots. I don't intend to create elaborate art pieces like on screenshotart.com, I just want to add some realism by erasing jaggies and creating the illusion of a real picture by using blur. You can see an example below.


If you want to read my first chapter of the Black Sheep, from now on you will have two options:

• Read it at SimHQ, with the advantage of bigger images by default
• or Read the blog-novel, with the advantage that you are one click away from all the chapters.

Make your choice and I hope you enjoy the story.

Happy reading
