    Working in food

    By T-Dawg,

    People who come into restaurants in big groups literally minutes before closing are some of the most irritating type of people, along with big rushes of people all ordering the same things and then complaining about a long wait when they caused it by not noticing the massive crowd of people already waiting for their stuff.


     

    But hey on the bright side the kitchen staff is always great fun to be around considering pretty much anything goes conversation wise ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Graduated

    By T-Dawg,

    A simple 1 year course in welding covering the most used process and a couple other subjects and I'm done, now to work on a resume and get my foot in the door.


     

    Planning to start small and build up my skillset and then move on up to better positions/jobs, a far off goal could be pipeline work with my own small side shop doing request work for repairs or art people would want.


     

    Dunno where this field will take me but I'll make sure to try to enjoy it and learn more things along the way.


     
     

    Here is a trophy I made for a friend as a sort of prototype.

     

    More ideas down the line but gotta buy my own Tig machine first.

    Brickfair recap

    By T-Dawg,

    Got back form Brickfair 2016 yesterday, gotta say out of the three I've been to so far this was probably the best. I've still got the social skills of a grape but the fancy dinner event did make it a bit easier on me. That said I met the TTV people and Kahi is one of the chillest dudes I've seen. Along with a pretty good dinner, Zatth managed to convince me about my secret double life that I never knew I had and the horrendous acts I never thought I committed.


     

    Also I appeared on Beyond the Brick's twitter page (me being in the horse head mask) which was pretty cool (thanks to X for letting me know)

    MOC wise lots of cool stuff this year, was pretty rad to find the lego Touhou project characters; Reimu Hakurei and Marisa Kirisame.


     

    Hatpile was legendary this year hitting a grand total of 66 hats.


     

    Luroka is very good at princess carrying people, I however am not and will possibly drop you if you try.


     

    Lots of fun was had this year can't wait for next year where I'll hopefully be bringing X and Unit along with me.

    The Voltex model

    By T-Dawg,

    Look upon the craftsmanship that is the Skell Unit Voltex, kind average really newest and best in our line of Skells. It will be boldly used to fight the Telethia of Demise where it will hopefully not be destroyed within seconds of doing so, no promises though.

    Stress and misery

    By T-Dawg,

    When stuff really starts getting to you and you can't even fall asleep until nearly 4 am, I'm such a mess lately and anything I try to do about it makes me worry more about it all

    Silver Chariot

    By T-Dawg,

    The stand of Polnareff; Silver Chariot.



    A lighting fast stand that uses its sword for fast and precise strikes.


     

    Current Pose


    And the various others I took

     

    All in all a pretty nice figure, good way to start out the collection as it was about $44.



    Condition is quite nice along with the detail save for a few spots on the legs, but its really not an issue.



    The addition of Anubis both broken and in one piece is pretty cool.



    Color is based off the OVA rather than the recent anime of Stardust crusaders.


     

    Planning to get Star Platinum next and make a scene from the Anubis arc although it's a little pricey but should be worth it.

    I've just finished reading part 4 the other day and have now started part 6 but I'm curious about what Stand you all like the most, and also if you could have any one Stand which would it be?


     

    Personally Sticky Fingers from part 5 is hands down my favorite Stand, it in general would seem like a really fun Stand and considering how usefully Bruno made it in combat situations was pretty entertaining.


     

    As for having any one stand its pretty much a three way tie of Sticky Fingers, Crazy Diamond, and King Crimson all of which would be very useful in daily life; Sticky Fingers would make stuff really fun going through walls extending my limbs and such, Crazy Diamond would be immensely useful considering it can fix pretty much anything and heal anyone with the only downside of being unable to heal yourself, it would really help with a lot of issues and such, and King Crimson would just be fun to use with time deletion and telling people that it just works.

    Nearing Graduation

    By T-Dawg,

    I dig year long school programs, at the very least I'll be able take welding tests for stick and GMAW at possible job opportunities.


     

    I've also set myself on fire twice by accident and flashed myself 3 times lol


     

    Pretty fun stuff overall looking forward to TIG in the next couple of weeks.

    Opening day was monday and I live in a college town RIP us, thankfully I simply had to work the closing shift from 7 pm to 2 am, although thanks to a certain "wonderful manager" I then had to work today from 9 am to 7 pm. I have just awoken from a minor food coma since I had pretty much nothing to eat since breakfast.

    Skell model: Vladimir

    By T-Dawg,

    Another Skell unit modeled after someone's request, this time being Unit.



    Vladimir offers an amazing defense as well as melee attack, with the most powerful attack on it being a scythe made of energy, very useful to have helping out with the big nasties that I sometimes don't even try to fight. Plus it looks pretty cool, not my favorite design but definitely up there.

    Life

    By T-Dawg,

    Been welding since about May now, pretty fun stuff, I know my way around a stick machine and even have my own home machine.



    Still got a lot to learn regardless but my classes are great.


     

    I even pimped out my helmet.

     

    Got advanced stick classes in a couple weeks and MIG as well, Tig most likely next year.

    Some Figure Updates

    By T-Dawg,

    Over the past month I've added a couple new additions to my collection of random figurines;




    First of all we have the Stand King Crimson from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 5


    Just a couple of poses


    It makes more sense with context for this pose


    Came with a couple hands and a different faced head overall it's a rad figure and pretty well made.


     
     

    Next we have
    Scervo from Skyward sword.


    Got it pretty cheap at gamestop a couple weeks back, quite the nice purchase I must say.




    That awkward moment when the samller one costed more than double the price of the larger one.

     
     
     

    My next purchase will most likely be this;






    Hina Kagiyama who is one of my favorite Touhou characters.


     
     
     

    And last but certainly not least I got these preordered last night;



    They don't ship till September but I'm glad I got them when I did before they ran out.

    Figurines

    By T-Dawg,

    Got this the other week which is slowly expanding the collection of these and the others.

     

    I don't even wanna know how much I've dropped into collecting but I sure ain't stopping anytime soon.

    ToaD crash lands on Mira

    By T-Dawg,

    And by that I mean I bought Xenoblade X the other day and have been playing it nonstop since 10 am this morning, so far things I can say about it.


     

    Visuals: Good LORD this game is gorgeous and I haven't even left the first part of the planet yet, enemy design is pretty sweet the giant dinosaur type enemies being my favorite even though they are around 50 levels higher than me so I don't really care to hang around them for too long. Human models are very anime and while most work Lin's face really bothers me.


     

    Combat: Pretty much the same as in Xenoblade Chronicles but with some added features, one of which Soul Voice I've yet to figure out how it works but oh well It'll happen eventually.


     

    Skells: I WANT 20 OF THEM ALL MINE AND NOT TO SHARE I LOVE THESE THINGS AND HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN ONE YET!


     

    Story: Seems pretty straightforward so far; Earth gets rekt, humans escape, some die, and some crash land on Mira, hoping that it gets more into possible lore of the planet and not strictly about rescuing humans(I doubt it will just be rescuing humans but still looking forward to the later bits of it).


     

    Ect: The whole 8 divisions of BLADE is a pretty interesting idea so that you can get perks for different types of quests and objectives, curious to see how it plans to reward you with them. Started off with prospector to get that nice defense buff and whatever else is in store.


     

    TL;DR Really looking forward to how the entirety plays out which will make me about as active as a dead sloth.
