Argh....
At least I haven't had to fight any Hunters in corridors yet.
I just got the original Halo for PC, and it is utterly awesome.
Except that Keyes keeps dying. Stupid Plasma Grenades. He's too stupid to back away when the Grunts throw them. Argh.
Anybody wanna do multiplayer sometime today, if I can tear myself away from the campaign?

Gaah, Font Creator is bugging me. >_<
Anyways, here's the font I've been using for MOC pics recently, though it's just a pic; you'll have to copy individual letters, since I suck at Font Creator.
Oh, and credit would be nice!

My opinions on the 08 sets.
"Toa Nuva":
First off, other than the mask and color scheme, "Kopaka" looks nothing like himself. I'm not even gonna get him for the parts.
I don't hate "Lewa" as much as I hate "Kopaka", but he's not all that good. I think I'll get him, and not even build him, since he has some nice parts, like the new sword. I like the mask, but not on "Lewa".
I detest "Pohatu's color scheme. It doesn't work for a Toa of Stone. The mask is good, but looks too much like t
So, Deus Ex is an extraordinary game. In fact, if I had to pick, I'd say it's my Game of the Decade.
Except for one thing.
The jumping noise.
It's just...

BACKSTORY UPDATE!!
^Click for topic.
It started out as a free-form build, meaning I had no idea what it was going to be. If you saw the WIP pic I posted in an earlier entry, that's the original freeform MOC. A bit after I got that far, I had the wierd idea of making it a spaceship of some sort. From that point, I started building with an actual idea, which was to made a spaceship that looked very alien.
And anyone who says System is the only way to build spaceships, you are wrong.
How much time do Lego's designers spend on each individual canister set? 2 months? Three?
If they spent say, 10 months creating a single awesome set design, and then simply made different masks/weapons for each of the six, I'd buy 'em.
If well-designed, clonism would not matter, as 6 clone sets simply means the same parts in six different colors.
Ta-daah!

Originally based on this pic, but evolved(or devolved) into steampunk right after I finished the legs.
Stupid photos making it look jumbled..... >_<

Finally took apart the Sandpiper, which means I'll be working on something.
Probably in the same theme, as it interests me.
More fusion/SNOT, though.
WIP pic requests will be ignored, as they don't exist yet. Maybe by tomorrow.

I'm gonna be re-skinning my blog in a Warhammer 40K theme over the next week or so, and then I'll pull the name-change on the 10th.
On an unrelated note, trivia question. Who or what is known as Dies Irae?
And, no, it's not the first Google result.

So I am building a Bionicle MOC(don't even start the "who are and what have you done with Cags" schtick).
Probably all you're getting for a while, other than the fact that I've been immersed in Japanese MOC galleries for the past while(also immersed in fanfiction, but I can't mention that here, though I wish I could. It is one of only two good pieces of fanfiction ever written. On chapter 19 and only about halfway through what's currently written.(and no, it isn't Bionicle-related, there's o
On the first day of Christmas,
Mata Nui gave to me,
A Gukko on a Vuata Maca tree.
On the second day of Christmas,
Mata Nui gave to me,
Two Kahu birds,
And a Gukko on a Vuata Maca tree.
On the third day of Christmas,
Mata Nui gave to me,
Three ash bears,
Two Kahu birds,
And a Gukko on a Vuata Maca tree.
On the fourth day of Christmas,
Mata Nui gave to me,
Four biting sand snipes,
Three ash bears,
Two Kahu birds,
And a Gukko on a Vuata Maca tree.

An observation or possibly more than one on the current BBCC.
There's a difference between "requirements" and "recommendations".
I have a nasty feeling that the designers' idea for this contest has been twisted out of shape.
Also need more light grey pieces of the sort usable for hands. Lego very much ought to adopt Jinzo's mini-balljoint socket idea.
Also fricking ugly silver pieces are fricking ugly.
Also(also(also)) I ought to just enter Contrail as-is and build a more menacin
Recap, due to not having internet for the last few days.
• Cannot think up satisfactory leg design for current WIP
• Almost finished the Library on Legendary
• Watched 8 movies in 24 hours
And that's about it.

Why does no-one manage to pull off EVA MOCs with proper torso armour?
*grumble*
Absolutely not related to my current project in any way, except that it might be.
