Let me tell you what I've been thinking about, Sweetie...


   So, I was sitting in the tub thinking about why I was destined for greatness....

 

   Not really, but I was thinking on some potential builds earlier (and all last week, come to think of it). Now, some I can make and some I can't off the bat, either way, I'll jot them down here so won't forget:

- Hanar lamp
- Working BANG flag gun
- Shepard's salvaged N7 armor 
- Actual shocking joy buzzer
- Darth Vader's helmet
- C-3PO's head
- Obi-Wan's ANH Lightsaber
- Luke's v.2 Lightsaber
- Garrus' eyepiece
- A shoe knife
- Mr. Freeze's bio-dome/Freeze Gun/Nora Music Box from BTAS
- Headpiece to the Staff of Ra
- Scale sized Ark of the Covenant
- The Fertility Idol
- Sankara Stones
- The Holy Grail
- A Crystal Skull
- A Batarang
- Penguin's knife umbrella
- A v.2 of Emperor Palpatine's robe

Can You Guess What This Is?

   Just a project added to the my already overflowing plate of things I want to get done.
 

    Lots of sanding and drilling ahead of me. LOTS of drilling and sanding.
    Then comes the making of the interior mechanics. (Can't wait for that part of the job)
   Also, gotta work on modifying the shitty recast above it even more. The bolt casing is what I need to do the most work on. It's not as even upon closer inspection. It's hard to see where some areas dip but you can certainly feel it. Along with that, I have to do some touch ups on the magazine; the tip is too narrow for my liking.

   A lot more research on the anatomy of guns is going to have to be done, as well.


   Oh, and before I forget: I'm working on this, sparingly, too.


   Revisiting a few animations that could do with some smoothing. Godamn timelines, I hate how it makes everything looks so cut-and-pastey. Ah well, gotta work with what I have. The sequence after this is done in flash and I'll have a better time fixing stuff there because, you know, frames and all. Much better results.

   Can't let golden child, Stephen, win three times in a row, now can we? My ultimate goal is to set the bar so high, no one can touch it. In fact, I just want my submission to be better than his or the ones he's submitted. I will have won if it is so. I want my hands so tightly gripped on the bar that I set, that it won' slip my grasp when I bring it down onto his shit's skull. My quality bashing it's godamn brains in.


Too much?
