Not Kim's Eyelashes Either
Friday, August 4th, 2006I was browsing through some clip art on a Computer Arts Projects cover disc when I came across the slightly odd picture above. It reminded me of the eyelashes that are not Kim’s but that appear as her avatar and on her Romance Fiction web site.

Vue 6 Python?
Thursday, August 3rd, 2006I’ve watched the trailer; I’ve read the web pages; and I’m definitely excited about Vue 6. No word on python support in Vue 6 yet but I’m sure E-on will let us know more as the release approaches.

Household Sound Effects
Tuesday, August 1st, 2006I was happily enjoying the silliness that is CSI: Miami when I heard an odd bell like noise. At first I thought it was some strange choice of symbolic sound effect. Then I thought it was someone moving lots of bottles or ringing hand bells in the street neither of which made any sense. The […]
Serious and Organised Revisited
Saturday, July 29th, 2006I’ve been revisiting my notes for Serious and Organised after enough time for the ideas to mature a little more. After a bit of editing to cut fluff I got down to writing a background to go with it drawing on the classic 70s and 80s cop shows for inspiration. A bit more polishing and […]

Friday, July 28th, 2006I just got an e-mail asking about the settings I used with Virtual Fashion for Poser to get a cloth simulation that didn’t take days to run as mentioned in my earlier Virtual Fashion for Poser post.

Teppanyaki Superman
Thursday, July 27th, 2006I’ve tried Sushi Restaurants and Noodle restaurants in the past. I’d never had Teppanyaki before.

A little Gaming Experiment
Monday, July 24th, 2006I’ve just uploaded a little gaming experiment. The same top down view of a 3 oar ship’s longboat at 3 slightly different sizes as a PDF file. Hopefully they are suitable for use by wargamers and role players. I think B is probably the best suited to 25mm figures with A a little small and […]
