Sand Slag (present working title) is a game set some time in the distant future. The human race has ventured through space for some time now, but never gone to far. A need for new land to house the massive population has called the forces in power to make a decision to expand well beyond the few solar systems presently inhabited and colonize new systems deep within the galaxy. A massive fleet is constructed. An array of varied ships for their varied purposes are created to create a self-sustaining environment for the inevitable long voyage through the galaxy. Many years pass as the voyage is underway, everything was fine until this first fleet neared the inner ring of the galaxy. Mankind knew they weren't alone, they ran into many alien races before this, even far superior races, but nothing prepared them for what was to come.

So, I'd like to start this update with the only negative thing to note. I've been ill the last week and a half, but I'm better now. Work is picking back up and ideas are flowing... mostly.

I've done tons of work on the craft that will make up the fleet. I've got a working model for the colony ship that I'm happy with, it's unfinished, but the design is much to my liking. It should look reminiscent to fans of a certain series.

I've been working on a player-character, I'm shooting for quality, so it's taking me time. As I learn more and more of what I can do with Blender, the better and better stuff I turn out, I revisit old projects, update them with new techniques.

The most important update is most definitely the universe at which the game will be set. It's has elements of many shows, movies and video games I've fallen in love with throughout the years and many people will catch on to many of those elements quite quickly. As someone has said to me... Everything has been created, it's the job of the artist to make it unique and interesting.

Also, a shout-out to all of those that have submitted artwork, as much as I can work on is being well... worked on. Some of the ideas are wonderful! That's all for now.
