Just kidding

You should post some feedback to people occasionally, you have a lot of knowledge to share..

KdS · May 2005

If you come in London, I cross the sea by swimmin' to get a dedicace

I swear it on the precious :P

Bronco · May 2005

hey dave

I love your work man,its an inspiration to all.

and yes Splash damage is located in London and from the 2 members from there ive met they seem to be some very very nice people...but you had best drink ale,none of that fosters crap

.

There is also a sony and EA studio that I know of in London,I presume ya don't wanna work there but oh well.

failing a gaming job in London I beg you to come and do some lectures and stuff and look into that side of things,we really need more very good artists to do thasort of thing in this country....failing that just come and give me some hints and tips

.

Good luck

I've always been a big fan of your work... shame you're not coming to Paris, and that we're not hiring character artist, because I'd have picked you up on board in a second

firestarter · May 2005

Er, I just had to say, honestly... forget coming to London UK to work, unless A) You don`t mind working on tripe

You`re content and able to live earning less than a bus driver C)You`re a wave short of an ocean.
There`s lots of post-production still, but the money has taken a big nose dive there aswell.

shotgun · May 2005

not to mention youll be living close to firestarter himself!

oh noes x_X

Delaney King · May 2005

yeah, that one worries me somewhat.

stoofoo · May 2005

Heh. Come work at Turbine, Dave! ^___^ Not like you are not close enough to that as it is.=P Really liking the stuff coming from you, btw.

Delaney King · Jun 2005

thanks.

I thought about Turbine for a bit... Did you know I was art director on one of the many middle earth online games before it sifted to Turbine? Spent a lot of time working with Derek who used to be the designer.

aaaaanyway... My missus has England set in her heart.

Still, open to big offers

MoP · Jun 2005

You could maybe try to sneak into Rockstar North, in Edinburgh. It's a great city, better than London IMHO, and I'm sure your "missus" could cope with Scotland instead of England, right?

Bronco · Jun 2005

If its England/scotland/Uk in general maybe this link will help (linked from Jim jaggers website thanks man!!) these are pretty much the biggest developers in the UK...though SplashD isn't listed.

http://www.jimjagger.com/Resources/Pages/UK.htm

Also though without contacting them you might wnat to browse through agency pages and see if ya like the look of any jobs going there.

try http://www.aswift.com/servlet/Job.Search?job.sectorId=6&htmlTitle=Games+Development%

or http://www.datascope.co.uk/jobs_games_artists.html

It oviously doesn't say who the compnay the jobs apply to but im sure with abit more reseach you could easyily figure it out.

Delaney King · Jun 2005

thanks Bronco.
