All's Quiet on the Midwestern Front?
Hey everyone! First off, and most importantly, if anyone has sent me an email, and I haven't responded (and I know sometimes I can take awhile) please send it to me again. Or give me a nudge like a couple others have.
My old computer finally got to the point where it needed replaced. Outlook especially needed to be loaded 5 or 6 times before it would start, and between that and setting up a new PC I know I've missed some messages.
So yeah, setting up a new computer is a big pain in the butt, especially with Vista. I had no complaints about XP, but I've had a hell of a time getting even minor things to run on Vista. Like my mouse! Yep, Vista even has trouble with Logitech drivers. Dreamweaver, the web development program I use, has some pretty major problems as well.
Sorry, I won't rant about that anymore, but if you're thinking about switching, and can avoid it, I would wait!
Guess I got a little sick of sitting in front of this thing, and since I design on a computer all day at work, I guess I got out of the habit.
If you ever need to get in touch with me, please do not hesitate to give me a call too, my cel number is posted on my web page. I also have a cable phone, so if you want to call and have me call you back, it doesn't cost me a dime. Got Miranda for an instant messenger, so I've got that running as well.
99% finished with these Blade Runner busts (shirt and tie kind of took awhile!), and I hope to have the Road Warrior kit finished this week. Next week will be a couple of lifesize Star Wars busts, and then a Joker and T2 bust, and The Man who laughs.
I've stopped hating this computer, and it's actually going to make computing fun again... now Photoshop doesn't take 10 minutes to load. And take advantage of this blog, and why I started it in the first place, to keep everyone up to date without writing a ton of emails, even though (and I hope it doesn't) it might seem impersonal.
As always, thanks for your continued patience, I'm trying to put extra effort into every piece, and offer some special deals for those who have stuck with me.
As with these busts (pardon the blue tint to the pictures) I'm trying to treat them and give them all the attention I would a full size piece, even though they're only 1/6th scale. I know they don't look anything special in the pictures, but I'm trying
Lots of other pictures of some finished pieces, but updating my personal webpage will have to hold until I get a lot more kits painted and feel like I deserve to work on it!
Thanks!
