This took much less time than I expected.
The photo doesn’t do justice to how cool the shiny gold looks. I’m fairly happy with how this turned out. Here’s a detail shot (sorry it’s a little blurry):
I’ve decided to name this piece “Chancing Some Spring Awakening,” at Michael’s suggestion in a thread from last April. Hopefully no one will track me down and murder me in my sleep.
So Sobek is really The Mad Arab, Abdul Alhazred? This sure looks like part of the summoning ritual for The Old Ones.
Nicely….done.
It looks great, Sobek. Nice work.
Love the name.

>> Hopefully no one will track me down and murder me in my sleep.
In your sleep? You should be so lucky. I’d be more worried about “what does my heart look like when it’s beating its last outside my chest?”
It’s like that old saying, Laura — with friends like us you don’t need squirrels in your attic.

Lauraw: Hi, guys, you settled?
FMs: *quieting down*
Lauraw: Ok, good. Hi. Please open your folders and become acquainted with your new target. I’m not going to lie to you, this is going to be a tough assignment.
FMs: *leafing through slim dossiers*
*one or two FMs begin to shriek excitedly*
Lauraw: No, it’s not the guy from Princess Bride.
Ha!
Uhm, it this going to be an air op or ground assault?
Just curious.

Also almost out of ibuprofin.
I would like to have that to hang in my house.

In other news, this guy has a job where people pay him to write things.

They mock you pal because you look like a girly douchetwat carrying that thing.
In all fairness, you’d look like one without it.
I’m also done – just finished my movie for my digital video class. Will doesn’t seem to be very impressed. But then, he hasn’t seen my 11 pages of concept sketches and computations.
Or, just slap his face, tell him to STFU, and advise him that his rightful place on this planet is to flatter you.
It’s important to establish the ground rules early.
Everybody knows that slapping his face and telling him to shut up and suck your ass is golden relationship advice.
No one disputes this.
Michael, not all men share your particular interests in women.
We’ve discussed this.
Hey, it worked for Cathy.
Just sayin’.
well played Croc Man.
“Will doesn’t seem to be very impressed.” You asked me if it made me laugh, and it did, both the goofy facial expressions and the ponderously slow had movement. What I’m really interested in seeing is the code that made the video.

I’ll figure out these computing machines at some point.
Absolutely magnificent. Has a Near Eastern feel to it. I love it.
And I actually think the Hebrew lettering is very well done. Excellent duplication of Hebrew calligraphy. I think STA”M lettering (let alone cursive) is easier than the Hebrew lettering you put in. Very impressive.
Sobek,
I am forwarding this to my parents. They like you, and will be even more impressed with you.
