So again I'm right as "spelt" is a bastardization. It comes from people too lazy to write, print, type, etc. out "spelled." This I know for a fact being a perfectionist on my own spelling. I could also easily correct alot of punctuation I see on here and know it is correct based purely off the fact I went through a production art course which takes you from the very first thumb nail/idea all the way to the finished, printed product. As such part of the course is to learn proper grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc., etc. There are a few "fudges" which people are allowed to commit... But alot of them are incorrect.

Not only that, but I already went through a period in my life where correcting people on all of that (even in their own speech) bothered them all to no known end. As such I turned around and began to "hang out" more with people who did not do that, forced myself to cease correcting them (which was a great difficulty) and learned how to speak "street." Now I tend to slur my words with no care and go through day by day a little happier because of it.

So if you'll scuse me... I gots me some stuff t' do.

oh blagh to you! so there!

i spelled the word.
i have spelt the word.

i believe this is how it works (correct me if i'm wrong).

Haha! You mean a lot, not alot!

I can relate to you in a small degree when it comes to correcting people. I used to do it a lot, and it upset a lot of people. One of my friends still refuses to email me to this day because I corrected him so much.

Nope. "Spelt" is a bastardization created by the lazy asses known as North Americans. I just never have wanted to much fall into it all as I can easily confuse people with improper spelling. >_>;; (I've done so in the past many, many times.) Not only that, but... I find it takes me far longer to spell incorrectly than to spell correctly. (Though I do admittedly have my own spelling errors. The ones I catch can be noticed by my putting of "(sp?)" beside them which means - in internet terminology - "Spelling?/How is this spelled?")

Anyways... I don't really care how people spell as I can read through most any incorrect-ness - and do on a daily basis thanks to the net. Though I do find it sad that North America - a place where the English language is a first language - tends have the worst spellers over any other place in the world. (I, of course, am excluding Mexico as they seem to kind of "just be there." o_o;; )

The only bad spelling that bothers my brain is "leet." >_>;; Not the basic stuff like what was used on Linkin Park's "Reanimation" album... But alot of the more complicated stuff that alot of people tend to use. Now that's the kind of stuff I ignore until it bothers me too much to do so... Then I sit there and do my best to translate it all. So it's not like there is something you could suddenly do to make me unable to know what you're on about... All you could do is cause me delayance (sp?). <_<;!

I can't wait to see the finished figure! I'm already telling one of my buddies at work that loves GWAR about this figure!

well dev's i can start work on em again. as i have finished MP Scourge. still have to do his trailer but that will wait till i get the one i won offa ebay.. so odes will get started back up really soon..

Actually "alot" is something I learned at a very young age and, to this day, won't change. My "personal preference" just as I know alot of people's spelling is. (Thus why I don't bug on it anymore. Took me a long time to realize that, though...)

Also... Sorry for not including this in my reply. If you notice you posted a minute before me, right when I was still typing. X_x;; And, as I clicked to type this one, Da GWAR Guy went and posted one. *Can see it in the "Topic Review" area.* >_>;;

so its finally been long enough for me to get offa my butt and start on this again... just a little bit of work.. but it helps... just need to

1. finish the sword up...

2. add spikes to the soulder pads and gauntlets

3. detail the cuddlefish

4. detail shin gauntlets.

here are some more pix...

I was wondering abou this project.. looks good so far.

Makes me want to do a GWAR figure as well..

Is that Badtz Maru wallpaper?? Haha!

.billy

why yes sir... my transformer obsession is as big as my girls hello kitty obsession... we are thinking about at the wedding getting cake toppers to match... my get a TF her get a HK... i think it would work!!

TFs and Hello Kitty? No good can come of this!

I was just thinking about this one today and wondering what in hells name was happening with it

for what ever reason i could see the cake exploding. and DF if i can stay motivated enough i could possibly get this done within a week... but who knows.. im a lazy turd!!

so i put a little work into this today.. i have been dragging my feet on this .. wayyyyyyyyyyyy too much.. i put down a base coat.. need to go pick up a few other colors and start dry brushing them on.. that will make him look less like a chocolate easter oderus.... but anyway to the pictures.






i think with even just this base coat that it makes it look more like the actual character rather than a sigma 6 with epoxy on it... more to come.. way sooner than later...

Looking good! You do Gwar pround and should be covered in various bodily fluids from a stage near you to prove it!

got it twice from em .. the 8th and then again on the 10th... place they played on the 10th was big enough to hold maybe 200 ppl in it.. was a pretty good show too..

Damn! I would have loved to see them!!!

so i have been on a roll.. did a good bit of work today.. here is where i am .. need to finish the sword. paint the biledriver. a few touchups on odes himself.... sculpt shin gaurds. but i think i made a good bit of progress on him in the last 3 days...





C&C welcome...

Not a Gwar fan, but that Crocmaster in the back looks sweet, but does he have a Croc?

wow! he has a huge *BANNED*

cuddlefish of cupluto..... now im still looking for a good croc to throw on him.....

Love the custom work gawd6sic6!

Have you seen the 7" figures we are putting out?

yeah .. i have seen them...

i didnt like beef until i saw him painted... only gripe ill have about him is he isnt beefy enough.. he is too thin for beef.. looks great but . i have stood next to him.. numerous times. and he is nearly my size. and im huge..

odes , i feel will be the same way. once painted ill be all over it..

i have done some more work on mine since those last pics. but no one over here really has any love for stuff that is sigma 6 related.. there are a few , but not many. ..

thanks for check this out.. and once i get some other things finished ill be making balzac...

I'm buyin' all of 'em, thats for damn sure.
