Life is hectic right now. I never thought I'd get to where I am today, I've started my UNI course - Diploma in Interactive Game Design.
That's right, making a video game. I've been putting lots of time into learning all I can, and it's both fun and exhausting. My sleeping patterns have gone to hell so I've found less and less time to make icons. Instead I've been making UI elements, textures, meshes, learning music design, sound design and that's just the start. I've been working on my book more as the game works into that and I'm taking advantage of the lore I already have.
To top it all off, D3 in my spare time, and it's all crazy!!!
I'll have new icons sporadically, but I'll still keep an eye on the page for new requests.

Streaming
Thought I'd add a little update.
I had so much going on in my life and kinda fell out of using this site, I don't know if I'll ever come back to it in the capacity I once did, I don't find myself making icons at the rate I once did.
I spend a lot of time streaming these days, and it's coming along quite well considering I've kinda just started to get serious about it.
I'm currently doing a Destiny 2 giveaway (or 3) so if you're interested in checking me out, or winning 1 of 3 copies of Destiny 2, stop by and say hi!

I stream 7 days a week (if the blizzard servers don't go down) from 7pm AEST to 1am.
Upcoming Icons
TO UPLOAD:
Abyss Odyssey
ArcheAge
Battleblock Theater
Binary Domain
Castle Crashers
Doom
Skyforge
Warframe
Wildstar
TO DO:
Artificial Defense
Orcs Must Die! 2
My end goal is to have my entire games library in Aicon; Metro; Wide; formats.
If you have icons you want made, they'll get added to this list, and I'll edit the list as I get icons completed.
I use BetterStartMenu http://www.win10controller.com/betterstart/ to customize my Start Menu, I no longer use a dock.
Depression to Hope
What a crazy life we lead, we find love, we fall hard and then we are forced to move on.
You might notice a few more icons than has been usual, I recently had a pretty horrific break-up, as intense as our relationship was, that's how intense the break-up was. It wasn't mutual, and in anger, frustration and sadness I quit my job. So I've so much free time on my hands. I've applied for every job in my local area already and now it's just a grind game until I find another job. In the meantime I have to keep my mind distracted from dwelling on the bad, and focus on the good.
Back not back
Just a quick update, I am back, I will take requests, though they will be slower (much) than before. Life's changed a lot for me, and I don't get to my computer nearly as much as I used to, and I'll now be doing Aicon/Metro/Wide packs for just about anything unless specifically stated what type you want in your request. It's slower to make and package so they'll come out slower. I'll be doing a lot for my own back catalog and for my nephews who are turning out to be massive geeks like me.
Peace.
