Nice work buddy. Good luck with it, keep your head up during those 12-15 hours crunch times.

Shit!
One of my biggest dreams have been to work in a game comany, and now it�s come true!

I feel so exited about it, i remember my old job when i seemed to stare at the clock most of the time, just wanting to go home, but not now. Who the fuck cares about the time in this buisness.

I�m mainly going to work with textures but also as a 2d concept artist. The company where i works is called GRIN and our current project is a futuristic racing game called Ballistics, check it out at: www.grin.se

Thanks u guys,

regarding my portfolio... i did�t sent as much as an old crappy sketch, they contacted me and after some discussion i made a little texture experiment and a qouple of days later i went to see them, then it was all set, i pretty much got the job in one week so i�m a little stressed up at the moment, it�s alot of completly new things for me.

I think it�s even more fun becuase they asked me and not the other way around, of cource i have loads of stuff to learn but i�m really looking forward to it.
