Patron saints and presents
Apr. 23rd, 2009 09:10 pmFirst of all happy St George's Day everyone. :D
But today isn't just the day of England's patron saint, it is my legaversary. Two years ago today I plonked Gabe Legacy down on a blank lot in a subhood of Pleasantview.

I really have no idea when the next chapter will be ready, but I do have a few small gifts for you today.

Here is my attempt to recreate it. It is the first time I've made a video, so it is a bit rough and ready. I'm also not happy with the quality of the upload, even though the original file is really good.
Anyway, it's here:
