There won't be a release this week because Sam had some finals to study for but everyone has been working on things that'll be in the next update. Now that we have several artists helping us out we should be able to start adding more content each release. Loot drops, equipment/inventory saving, and character progression are soon to come along with some other things. We've also been researching more ways to improve performance and prepare for other platforms. Some other changes we may be making is increasing the available unit placements for the heroes. Most unavailable spaces would just be blocked by some sort of environmental obstacle or away from the edges to...

I love Nantucket! (ACK - is the airport code and nickname for the Island) I'm actually heading there in the a.m. I'm fortunate enough to have friends who live there. I've had a crazy week and I'd love to say my weekend will be restful, but I highly doubt it will. My social calendar is pretty booked and then I'm flying out of town on business. I'm not complaining, don't get me wrong, but I've been going non-stop all week and would love to have a weekend to relax on Nantucket. I loved this interior design approach because it's a little un-predictable for Nantucket. The limed floors and white barn board walls are beautiful. I think they'd be a must if I ever have the chance to build a house. Have a wonderful weekend. You most likely won't hear from me until Tuesday! xx - Julie I'll take this lucite desk, thank you very much...  Design by: Christine Tse, Images: Elle Decor

I'm on a mission to find artwork for not one but two clients right now. I've always wanted to use either one oversized or a series of horse photographs in a design. They're such beautiful animals. The above images are by Patrick Cline and are available through Lonny's Etsy site. These two images are by photographer Jennifer MaHarry . The beautiful quality of light creates a dream like feeling in these photographs. I obviously can't discuss photographs of horses without mentioning the amazing "larger then life" work by Robert Dutesco . His horse series is amazing.  I'm sure you'll recognize Michelle Adam's apartment and the two Patrick Cline images.

Hello there. I have a crazy week ahead of me. I don't want to neglect my blog and my lovely readers. Today I only have time to share a little peek from a job that I am wrapping up. I took these shots today, but after the art is installed I'm going to have this one professionally shot! Happy Tuesday loves!

The graphics for Light and Nature are placeholders for now but we'll be filling them in with something nicer soon. Nature Skills have a bit more focus on utility rather than damage or defense. It will still have those things but you'll see they are more strategic in nature, no pun intended. For example, the Nature Native Skill heals a little but also immobilizes (roots) the target for 3 seconds. Useful for catching enemies that could be running off or going after certain characters at the expense of healing them slightly. On the other hand you could be using it as stack...

I'm always inspired by the world around me. I'd have to say most of my inspiration lately is right at my finger tips. With the advent of Pinterest, numerous search engines and a zillion design blogs, I don't have to look far for inspiration. Of course getting in touch with nature and exploring + traveling are always a must too. I need to step out of my design world and away from the computer to recharge sometimes! This week I'm inspired by everything 60's and 70's glam . I'm loving the work of Italian socialite and artist, designer and business woman Gabriella Crespi lately. Her sculptural, designs are a marvel and are crafted out an array of materials such as metal, shells, wood, and bamboo. She drew inspiration from "the universe". Crespi is a very spiritual woman and was born in 1922.

It's really warm in Boston today, unseasonably warm really. (not a great day for the marathoners). This amazing weather is tricking me to believe that July is right around the corner! No worries though, I'll be pool side soon enough. For now, I'll enjoy 80 in April! Isn't it amazing how much the weather affects your state of mind?
