Guess who I just put in a job application for

Yep, the creators of Minecraft.
It's a million-to-one chance I know, but they were looking for artists so I sent them an email and a link to my portfolio.

*fingers crossed for a response, even if it's a rejection*

And hey, if the impossible happens, Sweden looks nice 8-)

I, for one, think you'd make a great addition to the Mojang team. Your art has really helped the creative team, and it's all pretty top-notch! (Ha! Get it? Top-Notch?)

Hi Jake,

Thank you for your application! We're currently shifting through them all and we'll be contacting the artists we found most interesting sometime in the coming weeks.

Oh, and the cake was delicious!

Best regards,
Markus Toivonen

HE MENTIONED THE CAKE!

That means it wasn't an auto-reply message or anything.
