    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    Maybe they've not finished the CGI of fake Natalie Portman she so walks around the set in a T-pose.

    Those shirts look awesome, thanks for the link! I was pondering making an Emperor Crush on his throne with Ambassador D'Vinn and this makes me want to do it even more. :)

    At first I thought you said it took you 25 years to get through the series. And it still made sense.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    Most of the Vader content last few years hasn't been voiced by James Earl Jones by the way. His last time voicing was in Rogue One and it was only a few lines, but video games he's voiced by various dudes, Jedi : Fallen Order it was some guy named Scott Lawrence and it was just fine (again, few...

    What are you playing?

    Hyrule Warriors : Age of Calamity. I'd played the first Hyrule Warriors game on Wii U, was my first attempt at the Warriors gameplay and it was decent I guess but I didn't really like how the story felt disconnected from the Zelda lore, centered around a character never seen in the Zelda...

    Aliens: Fireteam

    Looks pretty uninspired to me, I agree it looks like a modded Colonial Marines, and I think the Alien universe is better explored in games like Isolation rather than shooters, even if I loved Aliens. Now reskin this game entirely to be in the Starship Troopers universe with the tag line "Have...

    Oh and here's an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of the frenzied ghoul, since you can't really see the spilling guts and protruding ribs on my goddamn blurry pictures above. That was before I posed him into the scenery and added the hands and feet obviously. (I couldn't post it on...

    Finished "The Croaking Dead".. As you can see, the idea was to create a scene where a living froglok knight is getting overwhelmed by froglok ghouls during the initial undead invasion of Guk. I wanted to make the ghouls more than just nobodies so the one being decapitated is [a...

    Agreed on the lore aspect, I was a big fan of EQ lore (still am, but I haven't really followed it for the last 15 years) and I think it's a shame that the only interesting dragons with at least a little backstory are Nagafen, Vox, Jaled'Dar and Trakanon. Pretty much every other dragon is there...

    I think Trakanon is one of the more interesting dragon designs in EQ (I also like Phara Dar, Zlandicar and Kerafyrm for the same reason), so that's one I might tackle indeed, especially since I started working on those mini-vignettes and that loosens my self-imposed restrictions on scale.. some...

    Zaide to the rescue with the true facts of EQ! Damn you, morphing vampire lords! Well, I got the black plate and reddish cape right at least! :emoji_rolling_eyes: And now I realize that in-game portrait sucks! While I'm waiting for some more bits and pieces to show up to continue on larger...

    You know what, Mayong Mistmoore is a pain in the ass...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Since we're somewhat on the topic, add me to the list of people that think WoW should go with Player Housing. Garrisons are at best a timid step in that direction, but they were barely customizable. When I see stuff people have been able to make in much less polished games like EQ2 with...

    Last time I made one some asshole guild snuck in and killed it. :( Jokes aside, I bet it would look amazing but it's not like I know how to blow glass or whatever. I'd like to try some of the dragon models, but since I'm a sucker for in-scale figures, it would be kinda hard to make a Lord...

    Haha well, the thing is, I really hate working. And I do hobbies like this to take my mind off work, so if I had to make these things for money as a living, I fear it would suck all the fun out of it, y'know?

    Thank you for the kind words, and wanting to buy one is a great compliment but I've ever only made stuff for my own collection, somehow it would feel weird for me to make one for someone else, even if that someone is a huge fan of EQ like you with an amazing collection! Again though I really...

    So, since a surprising number of people seemed to appreciate my Venril Sathir custom, I figured I could start working on more stuff from EQ. I've said it before, I find it mind-bottling that there isn't a wider offer of figures or statues from this franchise, it's truly a sleeping golden goose...

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    To be fair the last two movies I saw with him he jettisoned an old woman into space (she was fine though!) and then he helped kill an old dude in a robe (he'll probably come back though). Maybe this lady's onto something.

    I remember running into Irontaail one day on Povar and we chatted for a bit and he was on his way to one of his PoM visits and I asked if I could tag along and so I went there with him. Then I died immediately. Was fun, would recommend A++.

    Well, it only took a few months of not having any time at all to tinker with custom figures, but I finally started again last weekend and I decided today was the day to tackle Ol' Venril. So I did. He's not 100% identical to the in-game model but I wanted to give him my own spin, made the...

    The Mandalorian

    Well, I'd say a series about Old Republic era would be a good direction to go.. you can introduce new villains, new characters without any link to preexisting stories so you're free to kill anyone, etc... but this looks like the wrong approach here. This trailer gives a very much young-adult...

    The Expanse

    Yes there is more alien stuff after the Inaros arc, and I daresay it gets even more interesting, though to me not as satisfying as the earlier alien stuff (my favorite part was the Miller investigation and the station getting infected early on). But you won't see it in the series apparently as...

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    If you shit enough times in the same spot, flowers will grow eventually. But it would be better if games didn't START as shit straight out of the box. The last decent SW game was Jedi : Fallen Order and we need The Legend of Grogu : Mando's Awakening pronto.

    That's a runeblade version of Shalamayne, Varian's sword now wielded by Anduin. There's also a callback to the Lich King by how she holds the sword towards Anduin, very reminiscent of how Arthas held his sword before raising Sindragosa from the dead. It is assumed from the video that the Jailer...

    The Expanse

    The book jumps thirty years in the future, but it pretty clearly says that they've not aged all that much. Advanced future medical science and supplements means at 60-70 you're still pretty fit, and only beginning to get grey on the temples. I'm sure they could use the same cast with some little...

    The Expanse

    Yeah they're handling the Marco Inaros part of the story a LOT better in the show. Those books were an absolute slog to get through, filled with Naomi chapters and without some of the compelling characters from previous books. The series manages to juggle with characters a lot better, to keep it...

    The Mandalorian

    Sure. I guess, why not? But this show tends to skip non-essential exposition, at least most of the time. Also, the audience is clearly meant to be at least a little familiar with Clone Wars/Rebels since they're throwing around names and characters that appeared in none of the movies as if...

    The Mandalorian

    Stormtroopers were mostly non-clones as early as the OT. Clones had artificially reduced lifespans and most of them died in battles or from "old age" before the OT began. By the time The Mandalorian happens, the Imperial Remnant is using a mix of normal human soldiers and some early brainwashed...

    The Mandalorian

    You're right, but I meant in comparison with Boba Fett's legendary status, Mando is not quite there yet. He's good, but he also gets his ass handed to him more than a few times in 2 seasons and he's sometimes way too trusting with the wrong people. Which is good, because watching an invulnerable...

    And also how deadly those fucking Gaderffii sticks are in the hands of a good fighter. We usually see them carried by Tuskens in the movies, was cool to see Boba brought some souvenirs from his stay on Tatooine.
