Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 They're lookin good Osoi. I should probably post that in the actual thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 So, I've realized something the past couple days trying to write this scene... Command and Control is really boring in ground combat to write, lol. Really liking how your Thunders are turning out, Osoi! and in good news, my car is going into the shop tomorrow...looks like a gasket burst in one of my brakes, so nothing major/expensive to fix.

Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 That's a bonus, a simple and cheap ish fix is good. Heh, I don't think I've ever actually written any command scenes, maybe I should avoid them if they're boring... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yeah, works a lot better with modern communication...and not on the ground. :-P How's the Judge coming along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 He's not doing bad, his head is almost done. One ear is folded down (deliberately), the rope is being tricky tonight, and he has his goggles but no strap for them yet. I think a thin string type tied above his ears nearly on top of his head will work for him. Soon I'll just have the hands and weapons to go! ---------- Post added at 03:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:34 AM ---------- how's work tonight?

edonil Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Not bad. Going to be busy, which is always good. Fighting with the prober as per usual, lol. Trying to figure out a couple characters for the novel...I've got a sergeant, a soldier, and a Witch Hunter I need to name. At least I have a naming convention figured out for them- go go Germanic names! ---------- Post added at 10:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ---------- Ooo...a German name generator. That'll be handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Heh, I misread that as generic names at first! Germanic sounds much more inventive lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Well, I suppose that technically any 'real world' name is generic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Oh dear, Sophie is off again. This time she's going to stay reined in until I finish some projects!

Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 A whole array of random stuff about human 2.0... I knew I shouldn't have let her read my research proposal! Still, she at least wants Lucius done so I know how to sculpt a nice big anime style android/human combo. Which is a mercy! Mind you, I might be getting a ton of ideas, but I'm still getting projects done and some finished. If I can only avoid starting any more before I get the list shortened, that would be handy.

Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Heh, NaNo will happen if I have to handcuff the poor girl to the desk so she can only stare at the post it notes *grin* Mind you, I do quite want to sculpt Malin too, so after NaNo when its all written down, it could well be a good bunch of sculpts to play with. ---------- Post added at 04:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 AM ---------- Not entirely an android, but a synthetically upgraded human.

And I'm very glad the car isn't going to be expensive! It'll be nice to not be in financial distress after a repair, lol. How're things going, osoi?

osoi Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Not having a fun day at work, wish it was over already ... things just arent going as they should.

Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yeah, but cyborgs sound like ugly, clunky things. The synthetics in vexille are almost perfect replicas of humans, and people have parts replaced with perfect replicas. very sleek and stylish for bits of technology. I tend to prefer synthetic as a description of replica human parts. Cyborgs bring up thoughts of the borg lol. Malin would be the name briefly mentioned at the end of my chapter, who comes up more in the novel later on. An odd person, and not a particularly safe one! ---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 AM ---------- Why no fun Osoi?

edonil Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 I dunno, I thought the Major in Ghost in the Shell was pretty well done. Some of my favorite characters are cyborgs, you know! I'm sorry things aren't working out for you osoi, hopefully they improve! ---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ---------- Ah yes, that Malin!

osoi Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 I made a mistake on a job that has a really tight time frame which isnt good but it got worse with the workshop making the error greater. And getting answers from some suppliers is like trying to get blood from a stone so I can give answers to my customers, its just one of those days I think, to cap it all off I have class tonight but I really dont want to go but I know I have to. Tomorrows a new day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 That sucks, everything piling up on each other until you wish you could hit something with something else! Tomorrow will hopefully be better. Ah, the Major. She was an amazing character, but then I guess she's what I'd call a synthetic. Human and replica human bits . Funny how I've picked up these distinctions over time, since really cyborgs and synthetics are the same thing! And androids are synthetics with AI and no organics. Daft really! Woo, nearly time to stop sculpting for the night. Just need to finish a hand on something (another hand, I should say, there are ten now already...) and I'll be done for the day. ---------- Post added at 04:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 AM ---------- And yeah, not done any writing on it since decining to join NaNo. Will do the neatening we discussed, then leave it til november.
