Kinda just figuring it out as I go along!
Elite Dangerous
Well, back down the rabbit hole we go! Last year around this time I got pretty hard into Elite: Dangerous, but around March due to work and other things I sorta fell out a bit.. and as most of you know once you get too far out of a game...
Thorn: Learning to process and paint a 3D print for maximum awesome
In preparation for PAX Prime 2015, I decided to create my own Thorn, an Exotic Hand Cannon from bungie’s “Destiny”. Now, 3D Printing is what I do best. I can crank things out for people all day long, tweaking, modifying, etc. However, painting and decorating? Not so much. Can I...
Below here be dragons!
So I just got done rebuilding this site from scratch.. and unfortunately due to a security breach at my VPS host a few years ago everything before 2013 was lost for good. As a result, I was going to start fresh but I decided to use the good ole internet...

My next big project?

Battlecruiser Operational: in time-lapse
So I made a little project this past Saturday. I came up with the idea at Blizzcon when I picked up the Limited Edition MegaBlocks Battlecruiser kit, but have been putting it off since I got back. I finally had the time to sit down and work on it this...
My 3DS Streetpasses it’s first convention
So this weekend is wondercon, the San Francisco branch of Comic Con. The one thing I was more excited about than anything else (even hot girls in spandex outfits!) was the chance to really put my 3DS’s StreetPass through its paces. I suspected there would be a healthy dose of...
