Stone Trolls and Orcs

I love playing... or should I say... I loved playing

I remember that when I was young, I was crazy for video games. My spoiled friends all got a Super Nintendo, my grandma was spoiling me with gameboys, but it was not the same thing. You could share a super nintendo and it was colorful. the gameboy was nice (Metroid on Gameboy was awesome), but I always got the envy of not having a stupid super nintendo.

With the advent of computers, video gaming on them, and suddenly realizing that its graphics were better than the N64, I was finally dreaming the dream: I remember playing Doom, Heretic, and a game about some space ships fighting each other (don't remember the name), but everything was in glorious 3-D (and in shinny colors)

Everything was pixelated, but it was fantastic...

Of course, my parents didn't like me and my brothers spending tons of time playing games, we often would indulge in playing these late at night. A complicated issue, because the computer was not in our room. You needed to be very silent, and my dad did have a keen ear. Every time he got up to make a night patrol (why?) you needed to be very silent, turn off the computer monitor, and even hide the little lights from the computer, if you could fool this old fox of my dad, you would be playing some more time. If not, you were busted, and to bed you go.

Anyway... I was reminiscing of all this stuff because, part of my novel has the Saurians, and Stone Trolls. These form part of another video game (battle for Wesnoth, free on Steam), that is from a few years ago, but it emulates those pixelated 2D games; besides... I needed something else to put on my blog, and why not? some nostalgic events which are going to trigger you guys, my incognito friends on the internet, to buy my novels ^.^

This is a Stone Troll, and its commanding Orc. Orcs and Trolls come together in Battle for Wesnoth. In my novel, they are dumber and more aggressive, still they can be trained for war, and Orcs love them.

If you wish to help this poor author, and his family. You can buy one of my novels: 10 puny dollars for a physical edition or 3 puniest (and insignificant) dollars for the kindle edition

from bad authors & more

First... let me show you guys my freaking new books ... which are pretty cool Me and my family bought some of them, I gotta tell you that these are way better than the "proof" books, perhaps they put more effort when the customers are "real". I was pretty happy when they arrived, so happy that I continued my second book, well, that and the fact that I have a little more time for the writing. We are in Tlaxcala, another state in Mexico... it's really cold and windy, but the panoramics are something wonderful. This is my real job, we are specialists in mechanical vibration analysis, so we go and check different machines, and we also give a technical training to analysts... I lied to you guys, I am not really an author, If I were, I would already be dead of starvation or something. The Tlaxcaltecas were an indigenous tribe in Mexico, they were paying tribute to the triple alliance ( Mexicas, Texcoco, and Tlacopan )... Indigenous tribes in Mexico ...

These are the female elfs, I was going to draw her nude, but... some people can get offended, everybody gets offended for almost anything nowadays... On Facebook, I am promoting my book. One dude did put some partially nude females and some women immediately retaliated, they were accusing this dude and his pictures of being sexist...The funny thing in this situation is that we males, drawing these kind of pictures, are consciously or sub consciously loving the idea of some scantly dressed fantasy woman appearing in our dull and boring realities. What is the problem with that? We are males, we love to see almost naked ladies, almost naked and fit ladies, I mean, it is printed in our genes; we are constantly looking for female healthy individuals. If we project that into our everyday life style, do we need to be condemned? In the last post I was going to talk about my love-hate relationship with ants. In Mexico, we have these everywhere: When I was little, I though...

The real Narco Mexico

These are some of the different classes of Saurians . The Trackers have enhanced senses of smelling, hearing, and seeing. They are widely used in Saurian patrols to pursue or locate their enemies. Changelings can "transform" into their enemies (provided, these don't have great smelling senses, or magical traps). Changelings are used as infiltrators; their job is to sow panic and chaos behind enemy ranks. Fighters or Soldiers tend to be shorter, bulkier, but stronger. They can't move swiftly as the previous classes, instead, they are fighting masters, and are the most resilient of them. They are an important faction in my book: Magika Scientifica B1: Tainted Sun As you can see, I did use some delimiting line to mark them... it is really hard to just drop that thin black line... so... mea culpa, mea culpa. By the way! Happy holidays and etcetera . The real great thing about these holidays is that the family gets together, and you can infect ot...
