Hmmm

Tue Dec 1, 2009, 5:20 PM
Been thinking about an idea for a sort of modern Can-Am series, where the only real rules are safety related. Cars would range from modern LMP cars in the lowest class, to super high end technological marvels in the top class. Don't have too many details yet, but the classes will be set up like most other endurance series. The top class, which I will call GT-P1, will have cars exceeding 1000 hp and using various features such as active aero, active suspension, and pretty much all other tech that has been banned from modern racing series. The mid-tier class, GT-P2 will run cars in the 700-800 hp range. These cars will have the same fancy tech as GT-P1, but will be a bit lighter. The lowest tier class, GT-P3 will run current style LMP1/LMP2 class race cars, which can run de-restricted. These cars will lack the active aero and other high tech goodies, but still run under much fewer regulations when compared to ACO/FIA regulated prototypes. Existing LMP's will be able to run in this class.

Anyway besides that little idea, I have been hoarding copious amounts of PS3 in the form of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. I also have a few models left to put together, along with possibly getting a new nitro r/c car. Might get a new diecast soon also...

Model Whorage

Thu Oct 29, 2009, 9:21 AM
So, I have completed more model kits. Now completed ones are the MV-22A Osprey (1/48, Italeri), AH-64A Apache (1/48, Revell), and F/A-18E Super Hornet (1/48, Revell). I also finally completed my Mi-24D Hind (1/48, Revell) by adding weapons and a handful of antenna and other little details it was missing. Now, the F-14D, F/A-18E, and F-16C all need weapons still, while my CH-53E Super Stallion (1/48, Academy) is nearly complete. Still need to take individual pics of these models though <__<

Anyway in other news, I have obtained an Xbox 360 of my own, along with pre-ordering a Bandai VF-27 Lucifer from Macross Frontier. Also might obtain a 1/48 scale B-1B Lancer (Revell) next week, along with Forza Motorsport 3.

Yet more models...

Still haven't managed to come up with motivation to 3d model again. So in the meantime I continue to buy/build more aircraft. Now I have obtained an Academy 1/48 scale F-16 Fighting Falcon, which I am not working on. I also need to finish up my Tamiya 1/100 scale A-7A Corsair II. Those two, along with my Revell 1/48 F-14D Super Tomcat all need pictures taken, so expect some pics of those soon. Other than model aircraft, I have bought a diecast 1/18 scale 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT-8, built by Highway 61 that needs some good pictures take of. I also bought a PSP-3000 Slim, so I can use that to play newer games so I don't have to constantly Pandora Battery my old PSP-1000 with it's custom firmware (5.00M33).

Model Plane Madness

Wed Aug 12, 2009, 1:21 PM
I have been going nuts with the plastic model plane kits lately. Since this past spring, I have built a total of 14 model aircraft kits of various scales. And I still have 5 more kits to build, though that number could increase in the next few hours lol. Probably gonna get some pics of individual models over the next few days and upload them.

Anyway the models I have built so far are:
1/48 Vought F4U-4 Corsair (Revell)
1/48 North American T-28B Trojan (Revell)
1/48 Vought V-173 Flying Pancake (Sword)
1/48 Mil Mi-24D Hind (Revell)
1/48 Convair F-106A Delta Dart (Revell)
1/72 Vought F-8E Crusader (Italeri)
1/72 McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II (Hasegawa)
1/72 Cessna A-37B Dragonfly (Hasegawa)
1/72 North American X-15A2 (Revell)
1/72 North American B-25B Mitchell (Revell)
1/72 Martin B-57B Canberra (Revell)
1/72 North American Rockwell OV-10D Bronco (Academy)
1/100 B.A.C. Lightning F Mk.6 (Tamiya)
1/144 McDonnell Douglas F-15A Eagle (Academy)

And the unbuilt ones:
1/48 Lockheed P-38 Lightning (Revell)
1/48 McDonnell Douglass AH-64A Apache (Revell)
1/48 Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet (Revell)
1/100 Vought A-7A Corsair II (Tamiya)
1/144 McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II (Academy)

There is a 99% chance I will have obtained at least a 1/48 Grumman F-14D Super Tomcat (Revell) later today...

And besides the model plane nuttery, I have been indulging myself in Tales of the Abyss on mah PS2, along with various PS3 games. Ain't exactly much do down here in my new home <___<

*EDIT*
lawl, I did end up coming home with a 1/48 F-14D, along with a 1/72 pre-built plastic Challenger II tank O_o
I also bought Black Lagoon: The Second Raid, which came in a fancy metal case like the first season did...

*EDIT #2*
Aaaand now I also have a 1/72 Forces of Valor M1A2 Abrams tank (pre-built diecast), a 1/72 AUTOart P-51D Mustang (pre-built diecast), and a 1/48 Revell P-61 Black Widow (plastic kit)

Well....

I got good news and I got bad news....
Bad news is that my old 160gb hdd seems to have died on my, and as of yet I have not recovered any data from it (my newest backups are a couple months old). Hopefully I am able to recover most, if not all of my data since it seems to be a issue with the master boot record, which usually is recoverable. In the meantime I bought a 500gb hdd so I can at least use my laptop for the time being.

Good news is that I started my new job, and even though it is hot out here in the south, I am learning new things and working hard at my new job. Also by next week I should be moving into a 1 bedroom apartment, which means I can obtain real internets. And if my data cannot be recovered then the rebuilding will start there.
