The Disastrousness of My Falour

If anybody notices, I spelled failure wrong. I don't know why either.

Anyway, from now on, two things are going to happen. I'm going to actually say stuff to this place, and hope that someone would be listening.

Next, I'll be updating this place with all my TF2 stuff. Because I can.

And next, (one, five, two) I'm going to go philosophical occasionally. If I have time. Hopefully.



So without further a dew, here's my first TF2 WorkShop Update

The Gummibaerchen

To all who do not realise, this project is floundering, so I decided to help it out.

We're all happy too.

It's essentially a little team coloured teddy that sits on the medic's shoulders. I should make this paintable too. Someday.

So there you go: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=8679556
Hope you have fun.

I'm here! And so is the Academical Assassin!

With a web page:

I've submitted a work on the Steam Workshop! If you like it, please rate it!
I know TF2's a violent and unwholesome game, but I kind of fell in love with it after seeing the sort of art that oges on, and so I've decided I might add something to it.

Wat I've been doing, what I have done, what will be done.

People! (One) I have not said anything in a long time. But there is no reason for this, except pure laziness, so I won't try to excuse it.

So what's happened in my life? Well now that work begun, I got busy, and lost almost all time for Blender. Boo yah.

But I recently, finally, managed to have a go at Bmesh. It is great. It is wonderful. It is marvellous. Yee haw!


I've also newly installed Windows 8

I know it's not open source, but it is great! After let down by Ubuntu for copy-catting Macs, (Which I vehemently hate) I thought I couldn't expect more out of OSs. Well maybe not. The image up there might not look a lot, but the start menu and such like are so charming!

This is just marvellous. Pure marvelousness.

Oh, and I've been wasting time watching Quit Blender or Die!, over and over again. : www.blendernation.com/2012/03/09/quit-blender-or-die/

History, Philosophy, and the Great Leader Hitler

Now before anyone beats me up and labels me for the title, I want you to read the rest of this post, or I'll start labeling you.

First, I believe that teaching justice in school history is wrong. We are taught that the Righteous Americans beat the evil Japanese and Germans, or that The British Empire was the pinnacle of civilisation. Now I don't like that. History should just tell the story, and keep any opinions out of it.

Next, philosophy should be taught in school. Although history shouldn't teach these things, philosophy should. See, history should teach people to throw away judgmentalism, and take a completely subjective look at what happened. Philosophy, on the other hand, is all about judgement, and although teachers shouldn't explicitly tell students what is write or wrong, they should teach them to make their own decisions.

Finally, Hitler is not Evil. Misguided? Probably. Didn't-make-good-choices? Well, you judge that for yourself. Hitler might have been a terrible person, but he was a great leader like nobody else was. He was able to band great number of people together, to unite for a common purpose, as wrong as that purpose may be. I think lots of people can learn from Hitler, although what we learn from him is important.

So that's me for today. I felt judgmental today, so I had a go at writing this.

p3d.in is GREAT

I think so anyway. I haven't really had a go at it, but seeing 3D on the web seems wonderful! See this:



I happened to be on the move, so I didn't have a decent model to work with, or a graphics card that runs webGL, so I have no idea what it looks like. Better have a look at it at home.

EDIT: I got the Matador on! Only the normals are weird.

Lil' Pics

Let me tell you that I believe I'm a pacifist. Or queasy. Which ever you like. I do not like weapons, at least in real life. I especially do not like guns or other projectiles, and would prefer if the world returned to swords and shields. However, I do not like swords and knives, because there's too much blood involved. I did say I was queasy.

What I find nice, however, is visual weapon design. It looks like any 3D artist worth their salt is doing it, and it has a sort of romance to it. (Remember, romance has many definitions, and I'm not using the 'Love' definition.)

You may remember me putting this a long time ago. As you can see, I've finally finished Ben, and I've also (with some hurry and lack of care) finished the rocket launcher. I love designing rocket launchers because you can go crazy, and nobody minds.

Who is this mysterious ranger of the outback?

He's not mysterious, he's not a ranger, and he doesn't live in the outback. So what use does he have of a elaborately designed rocket launcher?

Of course, the one thing this rocket launcher does not do is launch rockets. Maybe a project for next time.

Ben is BIA

By the way, BIA stands for Back In Action. I don't know if it's an official acronym, but I don't care either.
So what I've done, is completely remade Ben after his cranial injury, and patched him up again. I also gave him some clothes...

A sort of generic and simple pose I had at the start.

Then I tried some extreme poses.

I went for a different mood this time, only I don't think it worked.

Ssh! He's thinking.

So for those people who were wondering about my brain, it exists.
