ALL HAIL MEGATRON!!
Tranformers Animated!! (Not the official site.)
I've been watching this on Youtube since I heard of it's development and release. When I first saw the sketches and first episode. I really didn't like how they looked, but I stayed with it and it's FUCKING AWESOME.The look and story have grown on me (thanks to the writers, it's the best written cartoon I've watched in years), and the team behind it are all obvious big fans of the original G1 cartoon. It has small hints all over the place, whether it's through phrases, locations, actions or the characters themselves. It's just fucking awesome. Watch it.
The toys are due in June I think, and again, these look to be the best Transformer figures since I can remember. From what I've seen, they look flawless.
I came across this website called The web cam stop motion thing. If you have a web cam, you really must try it. Here's some I made earlier.
It really is a lot of fun. No doubt you could make some really creative stuff.
Still awaiting to have my newest tattoo finished, looking forward to it. As always, I'll post some pics when I can.
Starting reading a series of comics called Powers...
Awesome stuff, I really enjoyed Vol:1 despite a slow start and tedious TV news "excerts". I loved the characters and the ending. Really looking forward to this. So yeah, pick up Powers: Who killed Retro Girl? by Brian Bendis and Michael Oeming. From Image Comics.
Anyway, I had an early start to the weekend, called in ill on Friday, just for the hell of it really. Not 100% true. I was pretty pissed to find out that I'm getting less from my new job a month than I was at my old job, despite the bigger pay. And I'll give you one fucking clue why. Yeah, that old dick head the tax man. Go figure. So, it's adding to injury that is my finances at the moment. Sure, mum was a little annoyed at me for staying home without a "proper" reason, but we sat down and had a big chat, discussed my situation and she really does help me alot. Not just around my finances, but I owe my mum a hell of a lot. Anyway, whats going to happen now is my good self getting my first credit card. I've tended to avoid these like the plague, especially recently with my finances, but it turns out it'll work out better for me to get one. Weird hows things work out. So yeah, happy I have a solution, however it will take a while to complete. I can handle it.
So I had a good day off. Picked up Sarah ( or softparody to you fellow SGers) , the girlfriend. She's awesome too by the way (Add her, she's great. And that's the fourth time I've said awesome.)
We were meant to go out to a gig that night, one of the bands are my best mates, they were playing for the first time as a four piece after kicking the lead guitarist out the band. Check them out, Visceral Deity. Greg, the bass player, is my best friend. He does some vocals too. We're planning a new band pretty soon. Him, Me and a drummer. Me on bass, him on guitar, both on vocals. Looking for the more extreme death metal route. Not enough Death Metal in Glasgow. It's full of Hardcore and Thrash bands.
Anyway, got side tracked. Sarah and I headed back to mine instead and just chilled out. We ordered Chinese food and bought a shit load of sweets. It was awesome. (6th time.)
Yeah, I have a Myspace, add me if you wish. My Myspace.
Oh, this made me laugh like a fucking loon.
So yeah. Metal is fucking awesome. (7th)
Here are some bands I'll be seeing pretty soon.
Origin
Suffocation
Morbid Angel
Anaal Nathrakh
Nile
Hate Eternal
Dying Fetus
FUCK YES!
Speaking of sweets, I promised a couple more pics from Inverness.
So..... Like a fat kid in an ice cream store.
It seems I've had far too much sugar today. I've pretty much spouted a load of crap that alot of people won't be interested in. I wonder why I feel the need to "Blog" these days...
If anyone hears me say "honest to blog" or something along those lines, they have permission to shoot me...in the groin...twice.
Peace out me lovelys
also that transformers video is awesome, i must go find out more...
Sarah xx
