City without Skylines logo

So I've made the logo:
Hi, by the way.
I forgot to mention that I've been calling the game the wrong thing. The game's called Cities: Skylines and my series is called City without Skylines despite the fact that it isn't out yet and I have no idea what a skyline is. According to my Compact Oxford Dictionary and Thesaurus it is "an outline of land and buildings seen against the sky", which I guess refers to when you're at ground level looking forwards with the sky above your head and the ground below your feet. Whatever. I understand its meaning and that's the point.

I recorded a behind the scenes session for Mabeanie2 where I work on the city and talk rubbish and occasionally say things that matter.
Cool,

See Ya!

City without Skylines

Hey guys,

I don't have a logo yet for this series, but I've made an intro for the project so it's definitely in the works.

Perhaps I haven't explained myself properly. Since I moved away from my personal channels on YouTube I've constantly wondered how I can bring MrMabeanie back in a way that resembles it when I left the channel. Similar in concept to Prison Architect: Day 200, City without Skylines will be another documentary-type series featuring the Beaniebear. I'll explain more later.

See Ya!

KhanGameplay History video

Hey guys,

So some of you may have heard of a guy on YouTube called KhanGameplay. Recently he not only closed his channel, but his Twitter and Google Plus profiles as well; which is a bit extreme as far as I'm concerned, but whatever.

I decided to download a bunch of his videos to capture the history of his channel, because it got pretty successful and reached 1000 subscribers.
I wrote down the important things like when the videos came out and took a screenshot of the 'about' page of the channel.

This isn't the only video I've done on the history of a YouTuber. I have done one on ChimneySwift11, Mickell Pickell and Ihasnochille and expect to do more. This one is different, though. Unlike the aforementioned YouTubers I had never watched (or at least I don't think I had) one of KhanGameplays videos but I have seen videos he's been in by Mickell Pickell, who I AM subscribed to.

So I think that what I'm doing is now quite important because the channel no longer exists. Unlike the other three channels I've covered, Khan's is one that had a place among YouTubers and when it disappeared a void has appeared. This isn't the first time I've seen a YouTuber do that. A while back I realised a person called DemiMonta had deleted their channel and disappeared off the face of the site, so I tried to work out what happened and came to the realisation that they'd just moved on, which happens from time to time.

I personally don't think deleting a channel is a good idea because you might want to go back to it or someone else might want to look at it, but everyone has their own decisions to make at times and that's what Khan did. I think that when my video on Khan's channel goes live a lot of people will be touched by the afforts I have made to capture the history of Khan's channel, but then some may be offended. Whatever.

See Ya!

Hale Kane Comics #14 is finished!


Hale Kane Comics #14 by Mabeanie on DeviantArt

Hey guys!

So I've been working on this comic for the past two days in an effort to get it done before the new year and here we are on New Year's Eve with a new Hale Kane comic. It's set one year after Hale Kane #13 and has improved a lot on the artwork thanks to Ihasnotomato's input.

Enjoy!
See Ya!

Flag of Victoria

I've been trying to make a map of the world of the British Empire with every flag from 1900, but Victoria's was the most difficult to find. So difficult, in fact, that I had to make it myself.
It isn't very good, but I think it's pretty much in line with what the actual flag looked like.

So here is the Flag of Victoria from the time of the federation of the Australian colonies and in use 1877-1901.
Source: http://www.flagsaustralia.com.au/StateFlags.html

It was also altered in Photoshop CS6, so here's where I got the picture of the flag from: http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/au-vic.html

Now here's the flag I made:
It is supposed to have the Imperial Crown on it (I'm not sure if I got the right picture) and not the Tudor Crown or the St. Edward crown.

I could have a go at making the picture sharper if you want. So let me know at mrmabeanie@gmail.com

Thanks!

YouTube might not resume in 2017

Hey guys,
I know it's been a while, but today I was thinking that the way things are going at University I may not be able to resume running my personal YouTube channels in 2017 because my degree might not be over by then.
Basically me bringing my channels back relies entirely (ah... Actually 'mostly' is probably the best word) on when I finish my University studies.
So the way things are looking I may only return in 2018. Nevertheless AIM Industries is where you can find me because I make some of the videos as well as co-host them.

Also I thought it might be a good idea to reflect on my efforts to expand my blogging to other platforms. It did this in March 2014 and finished in January 2015. The way it worked was every blog post I made I would post to my DeviantART, Tumblr and WordPress in addition to this blog. I stopped because the goal had been to gain an audience on those platforms via my blogging, but I didn't achieve that and decided it was silly to continue. I still use DeviantART for my Hale Kane comics and used Tumblr to reblog something in June. Links to all of those can be found to the right.

That's everything I have to say.
See you whenever!
