August 2008 UPDATE:

Now selling my Aurea. £1800 with 4 years guarantee still left. Great condition, along with unused wall bracket. Buyer would need to collect from Godalming, Surrey. Send me an email if you’re interested.

I got my Philips Aurea today ! Got it from tec7 within House of Fraser.

Great stuff.. but so far I have yet been able to try it with a 1080P signal. I guess I need to hold out for a dual format (Bluray/HDDVD) player.

Just stumbled across an interview I did with John Keefer from Gamespy, close to the end of the game ‘Black & White’. I’d completely forgotten that I’d done it. I think I come over quite well, not an ounce of cynicism you’d find from me today.

fable 2 ambigram, originally uploaded by Jamie Durrant.

Was playing around with ambigrams the other evening and I tried to make a Fable one. I guess it takes a while to see the characters, but I think for a first attempt, it’s not bad.

This ambigram reads the same upside down.

Creature Sculpure 4, originally uploaded by Jamie Durrant.

Just finished priming and painting my latest little Hobbe sculpture from Fable 2. Made from super sculpey. Quite pleased with the outcome of this one, love the face, less keen on the body. I was thinking about molding this one so I can make some copies for friends at work, but I actually might make a larger one so that I can add more detail. This one is about 3 inches tall.
