Yay! I'm back. Apologies for the delay as it seems forever that I have written a journal. Well the usual excuses are normally life gets in the way and theres nothing worth writing about at the moment which to be honest are still quite true.
This time though at last I have some updates worthy of a journal. Yippee you cry! Well probably not but never mind. But then again my 4/5 years of being with Deviant Art, I would have thought I would have struck up more conversations with people around the art community.
Anyway the main reason for this journal is I am on the cusp of becoming (of sorts) a breeder of silkmoths. Not in any official capacity mind as it is still very much a hobby and to become a professional you need to expand/diversify and invest and at the moment I'm very much a one man band just tapping into the possibilities of what the hobby can offer me. Early days granted but you never know. You plant a seed and see what grows.
But at the moment the passion for the hobby far outstrips any need to make any money from it. Not to say I wont dabble with ebay occasionally.
The moth that I'm currently breeding is the Indian Moon Moth aka Actias Selene and it really is beautiful, I'm also obsessed with big chucky caterpillars lol
I have currently setup a new Tumblr and Blogger account, dedicated to Actias Selene aswell as other silk and hawkmoths.
On this sites I will also be sharing many of other my passions (if you're interested or not lol). These will included all things fantasy/scifi/horror/paranormal/wildlife/movies/music/video games/Toys (Big Lego Fan)/gadgets/models/planes, trains and automobiles/WWII and modern warfare.
I'm also interested in and appreciate all the anime/manga and cosplay sub genres and many of the tabletop games such as Warhammer 40k and Lord of the Rings and.........to pre-warn you I can talk forever and a day on all things geek and get quite enthusiastic about other peoples passions. If you are interested in the below sites, it would be very appreciated if you paid a visit. They are new so it'll take a little time to build up the blogs and content.
