Characters and such

Recently,  I've been extremely interested in a character that has been released. The game is called overwatch, made by a company called blizzard, which happens to be the same company that created a popular game World of Warcraft. The new character named Sombra whom we have waited for four months to have released into the game has finally arrived and I am very pleased that she has. The game itself occasionally releases animated shorts relating to the game and the characters for example back stories and the snippets into their lives. Sombra has also had a animated short created for her, but unlike the other heroes she's had 2-D and 3-D animation created for her. Both in my opinion very well made, especially the 3-D animation. Usually I'm not fussed on 3-D animation in videogames as a lot of the time it isn't usually done very well, but I found this animated short to be beautifully done. I also love the design of Sombra. She's been given quite a few skins that I like, my favourite happens to be the final skin cyberspace, using the colours blue and white predominantly to create her outfit. Her ability's allow her to hack into opposing enemies and healing packs. She also has the ability to teleport using a device that she'll throw into the air or throw into a certain area. which she can then hit a button and be teleported to said area which can be a very helpful strategy in the middle of the battle. One of my favourite abilities that Sombra has is the ability to turn invisible, granted she does not have invisibility for very long but it can be extremely helpful in when fighting, and sneaking up on the enemy as she is completely invisible.

Interests - Some cartoons and what not.


Cartoon Hangover

                                     



I've decided to begin this blog by discussing some of my interests. For this specific post, ill discus one of my favourite youtube animation channels. Cartoon Hangover. This channel creates really fun, interesting animated series, and are now very popular. 
Bee and Puppy cat started as a two part episode and became extremely popular very quickly. After a lot of donations by dedicated fans, the show was given the opportunity to create more content.  You can now watch the whole show on the channel for free. The show even has a spin off comic. I really should elaborate on it now, to quickly round up the show follows a young woman named Bee, that finds her self unemployed. Suddenly she finds a (what seams like) a cat dog hybrid, and gives him the name Puppycat, and the two go on adventures across the galaxy. Bee and Puppycat has an amazing charm to it, and the perfect mix of awkward crazy humor that I can get on board with.
 
Bravest Warriors, another show created by cartoon hangover is similar to the show adventure times in its art style due to them being created by the same person, Pendleton Ward. Bravest Warriors follows a group of friends that defend the galaxy, after the parents the original team of bravest warriors went missing. The show mainly follows Chris (the blond character in the picture adjacent) as he discovers more about him self. The show has its own sense of humour which I love, and a gripping story line, believe me, I'm still waiting for episodes to come out season 3 is due to be launched this coming January. 

Personally I love both of these shows, I find them to be genuinely interesting and funny.
