^ yeah, but you're a girl

I was told it would look more manly if I made it more uniform... like maybe filling in the curvy areas w/ brown?

11/25/2009 4:58:27 PM

scarves are never okay for a guy.

I don't have any pictures of the actual weapon though. (it was for a project in my latin class my sophomore year. I got an A+)

11/25/2009 5:05:53 PM

Shit I'm currently working on:

1) chicken coop- the big building project of the year. We are finishing the roof and sides of
the house this weekend.

2) saddlebags for the dog- need to modify the front breaststrap- too low.

3) quilt- one of those "forever" type projects.

11/26/2009 9:13:50 PM

shadowrunners gotta be on some serious drugs to make something like that. He definitely needs a job with a big time animation firm though.

12/6/2009 2:11:48 PM

FeebleMinded how long did it take you to put together that puzzle? I am working on the starry night 2000pc puzzle.



I have probably spent 40hrs on it now and I am still not done. It is a difficult puzzle due to the colors and style of the painting.

12/6/2009 9:11:56 PM

12/6/2009 9:47:13 PM

nice job on that kitchen cart dbmcknight

12/7/2009 1:45:03 AM

what are those rolly eyes about mang?

12/7/2009 2:04:17 AM

Dunno quite how "crafty" it is . . . . .

12/7/2009 6:48:12 AM

those pot smokers are silly. i made one and it is a pain in the ass to manage, the food doesn't come out quite right, and it's just as easy to use a smoke box on a normal gas grill.

12/7/2009 9:37:24 AM

Two different socks I've made:

12/7/2009 10:09:47 AM

all i have to say is that the howl's moving castle picture is no where near as awesome as the way the thing looks in person.

Like Matt just pointed out, the castle is from the movie Howl's Moving Castle, so I make no claims of originality. It still took well over 100 hours to construct over a period of 3-4 months and is pretty intricate, but it's not of my own design.

It took so long because of details like this:



Every little house "growing" on the side of the castle has a roof with shingles that are crimped by hand, and there are lots of other little details like that. The gun turrets can swivel in place, the eyes can rotate in their sockets, some of the gears move, etc.

12/7/2009 2:44:50 PM

'K' pendant I made for my wife (gf at the time) when I worked at a jewelry store.




Charm bracelet, same deal.




And I didn't make this, but my dad made four stainless steel propane grills.

12/8/2009 7:31:08 PM

Shadowrunner that's one of the best models of Howl's castle I've ever seen.

I hardcore want to be able to do that.

12/8/2009 8:23:42 PM

finished product.
