hi okay

ask away

I've just moved into Year 11 (2 years left of school woo) and we had to make an item for my graphics assignment, which I have finished. I would get more rendered views, but I don't have multiple cameras.


Things that bug me is those black lines on the watch that aren't supposed to be there and the dull-ness on the watch face, same with the text. Other then that, I'm pretty happy with what I've done, especially compared to work I've done around 6 months ago.

I work at a gaming studio (for my certificate 3 in Multimedia) and for one of our tasks we have to create a character that suits into a certain universe. I chose to do a dark, evil type heavily armored character, inspired by characters like Sauron or Berserker.

The helmet is nearly done, I just need to fine tune it. The armor is no-where near done and I've only managed to have a basic outline of the breastplate, some of the back-plate, neck guard, shoulder guard, skirts and cod piece. The character will eventually include a coat, so thats why the neck guard is so... flamboyant.

go, i require one of these for some reason not known to me according to some people

Mainly oldies and anime soundtracks.

Supernova is a pop culture expo, so you get cosplayers, anime, games etc. The event is in November, so I have a few months to prepare.  I plan to cosplay this year, so I've lowered it down to 2 choices

1. Karl Ruprecht Kroenen


2. Stormtrooper


Problem is, Kroenen would be more original (and look more badass) but harder to builder, the stormtrooper would be pretty common, due to the 501st attending, and easy to build.

Stop them. It's getting annoying when every second post is a complaint on "How shit the CCA is" or "People don't know how to properly rebel RP". I get it, it's crap, but what you all fail to realize is it's the players themselves, so complaining constantly isn't going to solve anything. I get the CCA is shit, but I can't even help fix that when you all refuse to accept change. The Recruits can't RP successfully, what can I do to fix it? Make a probation week, sure, but that already happens. It's called being a Recruit. You have a week to improve, and if you don't, you're gone. Simple? We already use the system. APEX In-active? What do you expect me to do, go to everyones house and tell them to play a game more? I can't fix in-activity, it always will happen. Also, I can't fix the fact that your idea doesn't get put through, or that you can't RP being a soulless Unit at the rank of Recruit.

The fact is, I can't help you if you refuse to accept anyones way other then your own. You're stubborn, face it. Unless you all change your ways and accept that as the High Ranking Units or Administrators change something, we do it for your benefit. I made the Public Execution change so Units could do some fun stuff while Citizens could Fear RP. Yet when say... OzJackel creates a group that installs fear into Citizens and gives you all some fun in talking about being chased by hidden Assassins, you bitch and moan about it because it is a group that you could not have any information about (Nor have the right to have information about) just because you wouldn't accept the fact that there is something you don't know about, which is change, which you all seem to hate. Need me to go further? Excellent.

Another example, when I first came to CG, everyone was surprised when I played a cruel Unit, which I was stuck speechless about. You all didn't accept the fact that someone was different from the normal flow of nice Officers who will let you off with everything. I brought in Operation Discipline, and when I used it to punish a group of Units, you instantly back-chatted me and nearly drove me to leave. Not once had I been shown so much disrespect in OOC by lower ranked Units. In previous communities, you showed respect in both IC and OOC for the position the player achieved, and listen to them for what they said, here, rank doesn't mean jack shit and you all go over the top of what a higher ranked Unit says, going so far as to completely disregard what ever he/she says and do what you please. Look, I understand it's a game but there is some discipline required to play it. You all show a lack of being able to take a punishment, even when supplied with good reasons. Just the other day, a Unit was OWR'd for improper Ration Distribution Protocol, which results in a black-mark, and he had one already. So, the Higher Unit removed him, only to receive constant flaming responses on how unfair it was. That was a completely legitimate reason, yet he didn't accept that. His attitude seems to reflect upon all of you people with Units, showing complete disregard for any reasoning when we (The HC Units) show you and just bitching about being punished. You did it, face the consequences.

Yes, I have more examples. Would you like to read them? Of course you do.

The big controversy on VOID. We all know of VOID, yet we don't know what it actually did. By we, I mean you. It was an Internal Affairs Division, much similar (yet worse) to our current UED detachment. Now, the point I'm making is that when a Division was made purely to correct your faults and punish you when you broke the rules, you all reacted badly to this for some reason, which to me, seemed like it was a division thats soul purpose was to remove the durps from the CCA, but at the time, that would mean removing the entire CCA (Not much as changed since then) so you instantly hated it because you would be told that you had problems. You all denied the fact that we need an IA division, because you couldn't accept the change (I seem to refer to change a lot, maybe it's important?).

This is only short (I will have more, trust me) because it's 2am in the morning and I can write more at school anyways.
