Right now, I'm really into learning CG animation. I use a program called Blender and I love it. It's so much fun. I have some shorts and eventually a series I'm planning to make with Blender. I'm particularly fond of toon-shaded/cel-shaded characters like in the Appleseed films, with hand-drawn details texture-mapped onto them as it gives the best of both worlds between CG and hand-drawn animation.

Also, I know I haven't updated my stories in awhile, but I'm in college now, and I'm also working on my art projects. it keeps me busy. I hope to get back to them soon.
