bowchikawowers Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Lol mako you should have invested in some ear plugs it sounds like. Glad you got some sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustcrusher Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 For what it's worth, Bow, my uncle also just got moved to hospice. Glad the geekchic stuff is out of my price range. The Curator is nice but I don't have anything good enough to put in it, really. I need quantity over quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Lol mako you should have invested in some ear plugs it sounds like. Glad you got some sleep. If I'd known beforehand, I'd have brought one of the pairs I have in my room! Lol Geekchic stuff is awesome. Way out my price range, but oh well... Maybe one day.

edonil Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Hey Mako, how's you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Oh, you know me, I roll along. Bank visit, and got a sketchpad and some soft pencils and brush pens for inking. Might see how that works out tonight, if I'm not in the mood for sculpting a pair of legs... How's the day going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 So far, not bad. Managed a full eight hours of sleep. Working on a Void Wretch at the moment. I've got one Ice Gamin assembled, and a Death Marshal, but I want to get the Wretches built before I start pulling out the green stuff and steal the brother's clay shaper. Also, was pleasantly surprised to find the it'll be fairly simple to attach the Wendigo to anything else, although you'll need to sculpt two fingers. Also, was excited to find out that one of my writing projects is going to be easier than I expected, because it was already at the minimum word count!

bowchikawowers Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm sorry dust, that's never a good thing having anyone you love moved to hospice. I hope you get to spend some time with him before he goes at least. ---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ---------- Good for you, Ed! Always a nice discovery.

Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Bonus, so less unpacking and more refining of the plot then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Yep. And basically rewriting the ending, lol. Still debating if I want to try creating something completely new, or find something that already exists to fit in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I say the second option, with a hint of the first. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 ...that...is not helpful. lol. Honestly, there's a part of me that does want to create something new, like what I already have in place, but toned back some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Wait, you were wanting something helpful? I'll see if useful Mako is back from his coffee break... Nope. Still just useless Mako. New is fun, but must be carefully done. lol I've decided to require myself to do a certain amount of hobby stuff every day, so it doesn't stagnate. I'm thinking half an hour of sculpting or painting (not including set up time), or one full page of A4 typing, or a page of sketching or inking, will be one credit. And I should aim for at least two per day. Might up that later, but for now it seems good to get me doing things more consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowchikawowers Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Yes really. Some hooligan must have thought it would be hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Good plan, Mako. Might have to steal that system from you. Also, like I said, we should steal Mary's idea of jumping on Skype/Oovoo and working on stuff with some level of accountability with the microphone's off. At least give it a shot this weekend, since we have the time. ---------- Post added at 05:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ---------- Eh. Not so much the accountability thing. But you know what I mean. Like doing a painting day, just over the internet instead of in the same house, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Yeah, the stern watching eye of another person to make sure I'm not bunking off is a good thing lol. It was Mercedes (I think) saying that 4 pages a day wasn't too much to ask that got me on it. I have too many variant hobbies to only have a writing credit system, but those should all be 30-45 minutes of effort so that's less than two hours of an evening but means at least something is getting done regardless. Just have to come up with a plan to penalise me if I don't do it... Also, morons are everywhere and think they're clever. Egging cars is just a bit sad really.

edonil Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm not big on penalty plans myself. But I do need to get better in the habit with things, I'll admit. Oh, and because I'm crazy, I decided to add something stupid to one of the Death Marshals for painting. The one kneeling down, with his hand pressed to the base? The hand hovers above the base just ever so slightly. I want to paint the hand with an OSL purple off the bottom, with a match on the final base.

Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Hah, have fun with that! Will look cool though. I think the viks might be first up for me, such gorgeous sculpts I want to have fun with them. I'm just thinking of having a 'if you're lagging behind, you can't play borderlands until you catch up' kind of penalty. Nothing big, or I just won't keep to it, but something so that I don't just go 'oh well, didn't do any today but so what'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Hopefully it works, I'm starting it tonight and it's a busy night of laundry, shopping and such. But I am keen to get on with some of my stuff, like the sketching and the sculpt. Not sure if I'll prep anything tonight but who knows how much time I'll have!
