So now I'm left with a dilemma, really. I'm quickly coming up on my sister's graduation (on saturday). I wanna design a congratulations card for her. What should go in it? XD (And do not fear, she does not even glance at BZP... or even BS01. Nothing said here will be read by her.) Also IWANNASELLYOUAHAT
This is basically a log of what transpired last weekend for me. Both the good... the bad... and the epic. On Friday evening, I flew out from Seattle at 11:15 PM PDT. At this point, I was awake since noon. I did not sleep on the flight, and I did not sleep again until 3 AM Sunday morning. I then arrived in Cincinnati around 6 AM EDT. From there, I waited 3 hours til 9:45 AM, where I departed towards Detroit Metro Airport. Once I touched down and collected my bag, I walked out and met up with
This is what I've spent my entire time the past month and a half on. We do not have public photos of all the models just yet, but we do have one with a photo of a commemorative model that we are giving away 25 of on our social media page. The requirements involve having a photo of yourself in both the Space Needle observation deck and one of the Willis Tower skyboxes, plus 'liking' our page. (For more information on the model itself, contact me via my email, swertmastra (at) gmail.com) Th
So finally got off work long enough to post an entry.
So what does the Swert do from now on, you may wonder? Easy.
I work for a commercial LEGO Art studio in Tacoma. It is owned by Dan Parker, one of a handfull of LEGO Certified Professionals in the world.
I've sorted and stocked bricks and plates, I've sold minfigs, and I've plugged our parties, but my favorite part? I've been given the chance to rebuild this set.
Dan bought three of them and put three of the middle sections togethe
It's finally coming. ONE DAY. BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY. It is clearly a sign. They want me to not work that weekend. I must answer the calling! "Welcome to Black Mesa Research Facility. The time is 8:20 AM."
So, I've decided that a redesign of the main page was in order, given we just lost our last one (forgot to back it up, oh well) I have a preview of the style the new Wiki Nav (not the Main Page Nav) up on the site here: http://biosector01.com/wiki/index.php/User:Swert/Zunebox I think I'll share the main page nav once the design is done, but for now I wanna know what everybody thinks. Other than I'm crazy, that much I knew :B
With blood and rage of crimson red... This power is mine, this is my light... In blackest day, in brightest night... In brightest day, in blackest night... In fearful day, in raging night... Tor lorek san, bor nakka mur... For hearts long lost and full of fright... The Blackest Night falls from the skies... ... [insert White Lantern oath here]... Yeah, you get the idea. So, I finally -FINALLY- obtained the last of the Lantern Corps rings and power batteries. There are nine in total. I now pr
Just placed my order on shop@home, and I decided to apply some VIP points towards it. 1300 VIP points, to be exact. So yeah, I just bought the Spaceship for $38 after taxes. ... I cannot wait for this set. It will be glorious.
Even though I've seen it more than once before, it still saddens me to see the ending. I mean, dude. You want a heartwrenching tearjerker? Watch how Jason acted when he first suited up as Robin. Then look back at the intro. .... ;_; Man, I might need a hug now. And I'm usually well balanced emotionally.
Which should I play as when I get my hands on Portal 2? (After I beat the SP, of course.)
Pros to ATLAS: Blue portal gun 8O
Cons to ATLAS: Rather short and stout.
Pros to P-body: Taller and looks more agile.
Cons to P-body: Orange portal gun
Though both's rollcage skin is epic :3
Sure, why not; Ask me anything (within BZP limits) I will do my best to answer. Now, I will also say, I may paste the questions here so people can read 'em in the same post, I dunno yet. So yeah, ask away. Edit #1: I added my replies to all of the posts, bolded, and spoiler-tagged it so it doesn't stretch the screen: Spoiler tags are for spoilers, sorry man. -TMD Valenti edit: Spoiler tags are for spoilers only. Not to prevent screenstretchingness.
Go figure, I get one day off in 5 days' worth of time. So, tomorrow I stay home and do my own stuff, then tuesday I head in and actually do other things not-really-work-but-work related, then I think I work the rest of the week. Long story short, I am the brokes and the tireds D:
Yes, we're working on a Death Star. Yes, that's what this is. And yes, this is probably the largest model I've built to date. And yes, I'm taking it to BrickCon.
It took a co-worker of mine in the shop a day and a half to finalize a microscale model. Boss had to change a lot of it. It took me an hour to make one from scratch, with a decent design, and stopping to brainstorm once or twice. Boss tells me he may not change a whole lot, just the base I used. ... Yeah, I think I'm keeping my job for awhile now
So turns out the boss needs a few tables for an event coming up in the building we're at. Guess where 3 of his five tables are currently tied up at. So tomorrow we'll probably mark where each island section goes on the back in a grid, then take the pieces and relocate them to an area in that room away from the tables we need, then move those out of the room. With any luck, not a single piece will be disturbed. And at least he isn't touching it until I get there. So we know it won't break.
So, I'm not exactly a well-known person, so I should introduce myself to the BZPower citizens. Let's face it, I don't do anything nearly notable enough to be recognized.*
I shall list my credentials. I doubt they're notable, but my friends think they're cool. BS01 Owner, Administrator, and overall decision maker. Anything on BS01 you don't like or think should be changed? Rant here. PREMIER BZPower Outstanding Citizen. And proud of it. Part- to full-time employee of a LEGO Art Studio, City Bl
For all readers of the Expanded Multiverse and more specifically the Cipher Chronicles, you may or may not recall the character named Revolution. If so, you will recall Bonesiii and I had taken plenty of steps in keeping the identity of Revolution secret. In fact, I even resorted to using a nanite android in order to use him without using him, just to keep the identity secret. You see, Revolution is not, as one might expect, what he seems to be. Revoution was always an envisioned figurehead,
I had planned to post like lists of top 10 stuff involving music with Necro. Then I got busy and didn't. Now I have like 2 days left to do so.
Woe is me~ -Swert
