Yes, I know it's broken.   Yes, I'm trying to fix it.   Yes, I need a hug.   No, not from you Erebus.   Yes, from you ER :'D

I Don't Always Post Blog Entries

But when I do, I prefer to post something amazing.     Boss wanted me to add links and stuff on BS01 to sites I cannot mention here (but got permission to link on BS01 from Black Six, so I'm safe to link it on BS01) so I made him a new logo, cause I couldn't stand the last one.   He liked it.

Remember Remember

And that is how I plan to celebrate my day, being American.   Notice: I did not draw this. This was done by Lady Kopaka back in 2008, on request.

Project: Build Mata Nui Update (And Needs A Better Name)

So, I've not had much time to look at our stock of parts in the shop for it, since we've been preparing for various commissioned projects at the shop. However, I did get to sit down and look at a few key parts:   I found our stock of 32x32 blue baseplate, that'll be useful for the outer edge.   Went to look at the Bionicle Gold masks for statues, found the Kaukau we pulled is actually the misprint. Whoops.   I'm limited to construction-grade brick and plate, but tile and slope is fair game if we

Okay, Mr. Radio Station And Zune Shuffle Feature...

I accept I tuned you in to a specific station on the Radio function. I also accept I put that music in you, Mr. Zune. But would you PLEASE do me a favor?   Would you stop playing depressing music when I'm not feeling the best? D:

How My Weekend Looks So Far

1. Gotta finally upload photos for a client who paid me in advance (money in which I used to go to BrickCon.) I've had so much on my plate, it's been put off until now.   2. Need to do basic cleaning of the household. I already overhauled it, but man it could use more work.   3. Boss called me up yesterday to generate a mosaic for him, due sunday night. Man, when'd I get the cool job/hard job?   5. Sleep. _-_ Zz

Why I Like My Microsoft Products (And Not Your Products)

So, this is more or less an open letter to my friends and people who I talk to all the time: I like Microsoft products.   Don't leave the blog just yet. I'll explain myself.   While growing up, I had many devices in my life. The company did not matter, because they had their plus and minuses across the board. I had VCRs I can't remember the company name of, I have had a few DVD players of similar status, TVs of non-namebrand companies, computers of only the Swert brand (I helped build the family

Project: Build Mata Nui Poll (Of Sorts)

So, my boss (Dan Parker, if you're new to my blog) asks a valid question, one I feel we should address to you all.   The island is now looking to be 10 feet (120 inches, 12 32x32 baseplates) in length, from Po-Wahi to Le-Wahi and all its surrounding islands. We're anticipating the width will be 5 feet (60 inches, 6 baseplates) or so, and he was going to design little block figure Toa and Matoran, averaging about 2 inches for Toa, one inch for Matoran. A few friends have suggested I'm exaggeratin

Upcoming Project: Build Mata Nui (In Lego System)

So, I mentioned before in my ignored blog post that I wanted to build Mata Nui the island. Xccj and I discussed it, Dan Parker and I discussed it, and we're ALL on the same page to get this done...   in March.   Now why do you, the reader, care?   Cause at some point, we will be asking for fan-submitted Mata Nui System-Based locations. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO MAIL ANYTHING TO US. We are going to have as much material as we can muster for this project, and so long as you provide good photos or in

Moc Ideas

Xccj had his, so now I should keep a log of what I want.   1) Weighted Storage/Companion Cube If I make a WSC, I'd make it light up. If I make WCC, it'd just be standard. I can find enough plate to make the stripes light up.   2) Microcity scale anything I am fascinated by micro, being that I personally have limited parts in system. I can envision a whole table layout, using 8x8 plate as my base, either baseplate or regular plate. Nearly anybody could submit an 8x8 plate of any standard color, a

Kasey Keller Day

If you're a Washingtonian, then happy Kasey Keller Day : D   Since the majority of you are not, let me explain.   Kasey Keller is the Goalkeeper of the Seattle Sounders FC, the Major League Soccer franchise in Seattle, WA. He is actually playing his final home game of his career tonight in Seattle, as he is retiring at the end of the season. At last count, over 60,000 supporters will be going to CenturyLink Field (our home stadium, shared with the Seahawks) to watch. We cap the stadium at around

I Love My Job

Have you ever gone to work, set up a laptop, sat for a few minutes to wake up, then get to work on building a sculpture in LEGO?   There -is- a drawback... sifted through an old construction toy collection for cleaning... and there was 50% Mega Bloks. o_o bbl dyingofcancer.

From: Exclusive Artwork: Merrick Fortis 3.0

Hey guys, got something great for all the Hero Factory fans out there. While BZPower was getting its forums upgraded, we had a chance to contact Elmer Damaso to have him draw a particular "expanded universe" character. As you know, Mr. Damaso is the artist of the Hero Factory comics found in the LEGO Magazines and online. Having him draw a character who doesn't have a comic form was pretty exciting, especially for those at HS01. While he was drawing this character, we got contact details from Mr

Watch Out Minnesota

Cause there's a Swert coming your way soon!   (May 10th to the 13th, not set in stone yet, but it's planned.)   Probably avoiding anything major, but you never know.

More Portal 2 Gibberish

First, I should add a Gaming category. I talk about games so much   Second, I think if they make a third game, the Turret King should be the boss. You know who I mean.   Imagine him crashing into a wall in a test chamber randomly. "I SEE YOU!" in a loud booming voice.   "ARE YOU STILL THERE?"   ... "NAP TIME."   That would be epic to be chased by all game. I'd love to see his electronic eye point at you randomly in levels as he searches for you.   "THERE YOU ARE!"   And then, just for fu
