Interests :
|
I'm
competant in a number of musical instruments, namely the guitar,
piano, bass and drums. I've played in a number of local bands which
have had relative success in a number of gigs. Occasionally I have
been known to paint things with an air brush or other media....
Most
of my time though is spent programming computer games, tools for
game development and writing tutorials and resources for others
to use.
