Save the Hive, Save the ENWorld!

[Mustrum_Ridcully]

So how are people in the hive today?

Fine, though I spent a lot of money this week(end).

I bought a new mattress and slatted frame for my new bed. Expensive stuff, but I suppose it will be worth it. I will move in October into a new flat (no more flat-sharing), and I decided that a bigger bed (1.4m x 2.0m) would be nice. Yesterday, I also ordered the outer frame and a new (leather) couch.

I am looking forward to the day when I've got all the furniture in my new place and have finally moved in. Unfortunately, the sofa and the frame will arrive in roundabout 6 weeks, so everything takes longer then I'd like.

How is it going Lord Tirian? What are you working on that is keeping you so busy?

Image editing. Or rather: Montaging something rendered into a real photo making it look real. And the render is crappy (and I mean done crappily, i.e. chopped up textures, stray light sources), so I have to make it look more beautiful by sheer image editing. Which is possible, but as annoying as time consuming.

Fun little fact: Most people who say "looking realistic" really mean "looking beautiful" - in fact, making things look realistic means it looks dirty, which people don't want - that's why all these animations made for the news and presentations still look so old-fashioned and clean.

whats a multipass?

Quote from the 5th Element - referenced above. Whenever I hear about 5th Element I have to quote that.

Well... looking at the time stamps... it's not exactly "ninja'd" (yeah, I was slooow too )!

Cheeecken Gooood!

Cheers, LT.

Well, crap. I have to stop being busy, because the perspectives are suddenly all wrong - that happens if you only help out and the stuff you've worked with half a year ago gets into other hands for the mean time. Have to redo the render myself on Monday.

On the other hand, it means I have more free time this weekend. And, after all, it's still something for my CV.

Cheers, LT.

Why is it that cute Northern European women get a +10 to their hotness rating when they have that Bjorkish "I can't speak english well" accent?

 

[Relique du Madde]

You're kidding me, right?

Cheers, LT.

What's not to love about a frozen chunk of ice-cream with a shell of sugar, cinnamon, crushed coco-frosted flakes that is dumped into a vat of boiling oil?

Allo Hive. I'm back.

 

[megamania]

Quiet.


Working on my Storyhour Glossary still.

Been cleaning / clearing / burning much of the day.

Later folks.
