Hooray, I won myself a TheBee brace on ebay. And the moment I do, I search zecter again and find someone's put a Kabuto zecter up there as well. Oh well, I don't feel like being a pretentious prick anyway. Instead I feel like being an emo loser/issue-plagued guy :O
All I need now is a suit... then I can do another half ass cosplay of preferably Yagurama - Kageyama sucked, and Kagami will forever be Gatack. Lol... first things first though, I have to wait for Paypal to give me my money D:<

edit: paid for yesterday, shipped this morning via EMS. Should be here early next week, I hope :D

edit again: haha, best feedback ever from the seller:
┐(ﾟдﾟ┐)└(ﾟдﾟ)┐(┌ﾟдﾟ)┌ ┌(ﾟдﾟ)┘Really!!Thank you!!!Good beyre

A tip to those buying Fenris for any reason (although it's probably just me...) :
Spend an extra AU$10 on a light jack wreck marker. It makes the pose contain some form of sense.
Observe:



Also... the reason why the mounted and dismountd versions have the same torso sculpt is because they actually DO have the same torso sculpt. Disappointing, however the cape ingenuity makes up for it marginally - they are both different in the angle they're flying around, yet they've been molded to fit into the same sockets at the back of the torso.
And did they honestly have to make one of the front legs a separate bit? Admittedly that's what pinning is for, but still... and lol, I even had to pin the other leg to the base to keep it on there better. I'm still scared the thing will topple off when I get around to painting it :/

First Supanova was an interesting experience. Sort of :P
Despite being stuck behind the table for most of the con, it was pretty good: WE WERE OPPOSITE THE FAMOUS PEOPLE :O
Bullet points of things that I remember (not many):

POTENTIALLY MORE WHEN I REMEMBER XD

The Butcher, the way he should have been from the start instead of waving his axe around like an idiot:




My main concern at the moment is how stable the axe head is. I didn't pin it particularly deep (despite there being a pin running through his whole fist connecting the two parts of it) so it's a little wobbly. I hope the green stuff cures solid to stop that.
I also managed to drill a small part of my thumb when making the hole in the elf head's hair for its pin... lol me

First exam for the semester failed. QUITE miserably, I might add - but hey, with any luck, I'll have managed to scrape out 25%+ for it, and then be given a pass for the rest of the unit. EVERYTHING hinges on the other marks I've gotten so far - in particular, the 90/100 I ripped off for the 20% group project...

[18:18] <khardic_paladin> so yeah on the way into maccas i remembered something that would have given me almost full marks for one question of the exam. which would have safely put me in pass territory
[18:19] <khardic_paladin> instead, i didn't write a whole meaningful lot and walked out
[18:19] <khardic_paladin> it... was quite difficult to not start clubbing random people to death with the tray

edit again for more screaming:
TWO NUMBERS! I NEEDED TO REMEMBER TO USE TWO NUMBERS, THAT I DIDN'T WRITE ON MY FORMULA SHEET!  ALL I NEEDED TO WRITE WAS SOMETHING LIKE K= 0.6 AND X= 0.2 FOR NATURAL STREAMS!!! I COULD HAVE PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Revisiting some old thoughts, from November 2006:

I am the bane of my degree
Tutes are my body, and lectures are my blood
I have created over a thousand excuses
Unknown to Credit
Nor known to Distinction
Have withstood pain to scrape a pass
Yet, these hands will never hold Honours
So as I procrastinate, "Unlimited Exam Works"

And, also:

I am the bane of my degree
Tutes are my body, missed lectures are my blood
I have created over a thousand excuses
Unaware of study
Nor aware of failing
Withstood pain to scrape many Passes
Waiting for the next
I have no regrets, this is the only path
My whole life was "Unlimited Exam Works"

Edit: to be honest, I always liked Shirou's better. At least those last two lines, anyway. Not like it makes a difference seeing as how Shirou and Archer are the same person XD

Yeah, it's old, but it's 25 to 2 in the morning, I can't sleep, and DAMN it looks awesome :P

( Well, Claymore 80 is out...... )
In other news, orz, studying is going quite badly...... doomy doomy doomed D:

So I had a friend steal a DMC4 promo poster card thing for me a while ago with the intention of mounting it on my wall. After three weeks or so of it being on my floor, Mum got the shits and put it in the corner of my room half behind one of my shelves to hold it up. She put it in a place that I generally look at when I first wake up in the morning.
Now, before you look further, I'll let you guess where my friend works...
( Ready? )
I shit you not...

DAAAAAAMN YOOOOUUUUU EEEEEEEEBAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry, what's that? Professor Pendrake in Hordes!?

Well... I can't honestly say that I'm surprised, to be honest - it's been a long time coming, really

lol, someone gave me the idea today, and I couldn't help but seize the chance. We've actually noticed a fair few "suicide ledges" around campus, actually...

ahem:

Some people will hate her pose, but I like it a fair bit:

I'll probably get her for the hell of it, lol... Hopefully they wont overprice her just because she's an epic 'lock. I mean fuck, she doesn't even have a scenic base!
Hanging out for eThagrosh too, since when WM first got epics, each faction got two :3

wtb one of these:

alf, even though i doubt you bought one, i'm looking at you...

I had the best idea:
Since Kageyama never formally renounced the TheBee zecter when he was given the Hopper Zecter - hell, he even regains TheBee for five minutes of an ep against that blue uberworm - why couldn't he do a double-henshin? The TheBee brace is exactly that, a brace on his left wrist. His Punch Hopper 'weapon' was on his right arm, and his zecter was on his belt, meaning everything vital can be accommodated with no clashes.
The finishers are easy too: Rider Jump -> Rider Punch -> use the folding brace thing to bounce himself back away, then Rider Jump again, except as more of a turbo-boosted forwards charge -> Rider Sting to finish it all off.
-sigh- Of course, Kageyama was useless in just about all capacities... although he had creepy pedo stalker down pretty good <_< On a random note, I found the most hilarious thing in Dick Smith the other day but didn't get a pic: Pedometer, with panic alarm. Yes, you read that right. Panic alarm, I mean, not pedometer. It's funny that something so innocent as a step/distance counter has such a terribly connotation-ed name

...that my mother is a nutcase:

Yes, that is one of my trading figures, in a Ferrero Rocher box...
She also spent a while looking at my stuff, commenting on the ones that she found good looking - Maid Rider was one of the ones she did. Odd woman :/

lol one of the IT support people in V building set off the fire alarm and evacuated the whole building - including my lecture - by BURNING HIS TOAST
Best part is the Fire Brigade showed up too... which isn't really a good thing because there goes a sizable piece of the uni's budget -_-
I can still smell burnt toast. And it's making me hungry... >_>
