At the age of 8 he was first introduced to the [Wing Commander](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_Commander_%28franchise%29) saga and spent endless days playing the game, or drawing pictures of the ships and characters. ***** Nighthawk_Zale [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9IGifESkWt-Lk7dkphphqA) Channel *Videos will be uploaded as time allows* ***** To keep up with my erratic schedule, of late, or read about whatever crosses my mind visit my Twitter page [@Nighthawk_Zale](https://twitter.com/Nighthawk_Zale) and give me a follow.

***** ###Weekdays ***** The channel's schedule of programs is currently in flux due to my real life. Please be patient as I work my way through school (again). ***** **Star Citizen Gameplay** *Mon, Wed thru Fri* ***** ***** ###Weekends ***** Expect to find me playing other space games on the weekends. Everything from Space Engineers & StarMade to Mass Effect & Elite Dangerous. Not every day has to be Star Citizen, but that doesn't mean it can't be space-mazing! ***** **Saturday** Saturday's gameplay will always be randomized according to my gaming mood that particular day. Can't have everything regimented and planned out! **Sunday** Hobby Sundays focus on those non-digital things I love to do. More often than not I'll be painting miniature figures from various tabletop war games like Warhammer 40,000, Warmachines, and Infinity:The Game. Sometimes you might catch me building a Gundam model. Who knows! *DISCLAIMER: Dates and times are all subject to change because Nighthawk's Real Life. Thank you for your patience and understanding.* *****
