Well, I'm doing great in college so far. Got a GPA that's "enough" to keep up my financial aid. Got good classes, am getting my papers done in time, etcetera. The catch? I'm still procrastinating! Oh yeah, big time. I have a Science project to turn in some time in the next two weeks, a home-assigned English Midterm to start (four pages of it), an English Short Story review, a game for game design, and a storyboard / collage / something for graphics design (these two due in about three weeks).

Haven't yet cracked open Darkside Chronicles, but I'm going to shortly. As in within the next 24 hours, hopefully. Can't wait to experience some Raccoon City goodness.

My Orcs & Goblins have seen 'minor' progress. No painting, but I did assemble a quartet of Wolf Riders. Not much, but it's pretty big for something I did. Luckily, it's my birthday / the holiday season is coming up so I should be able to expand my armies at least a tiny bit before the end of the year. Here's a chance for my two semi-regular viewers to give me a piece of their mind: Should I expand my already expansive fantasy army, add to my Lord of the RIngs army (likely in the form of another box or two of Morannon Orcs), or try to get my 40K Orks started in earnest with a few Boyz boxes?

By the way: Blind Guardian has consumed my soul since I found it. Cannot recommend it enough if you're a metal fan, or even if you aren't If I had to suggest an album to start with, Somewhere Far Beyond is pretty good. It holds The Bard's Song, The Quest for Tanelorn, Ashes to Ashes, and other good songs. Check them out on Youtube or some other site if you get the chance and see if they're right for you.

Playing Fallout 2 recently, I am in love with the .44 magnum - even moreso than Power Armor. Eyeshots are pure enough evil, but when you have better criticals they become concentrated kill. Add in that with bonus rate of fire you can put up to three of them a turn, they're a wonderful thing to have. Only better combination I can think of relies on a tiny bit of luck (but is: Fast Shot, Bonus Rate of Fire, 12 AP's, Gauss Pistol), but then that one is the most broken of broken at times.

One day I'll update this page with pics of my finished or WIP models, I swear. I have an Ork Big Mek I'd have no problem at all showing off, but the laptop camera is horrid (The Black Orc image I have up? Yeah, that's the best model shot it's ever snapped). Besides, I need a good ego deflator so that I can get incentive to paint again and try to do something productive for a change.
