Which version? Dominion Tank Police, Dominion Tank Police: No More Noise, or Ghost In The Shell? And that's just the manga versions... :devil::lol:

dominion, I prefer them as criminals as opposed to the semi reformed no more noise version. The street scavenger version from gits is also fun, but they only get a few panels.

 

the anime version is also good

Original or... Wait, did they even appear in the sequel series? It's been too long since I've seen it. Even though I can sing the theme song by heart. :lol:

For the one of you who was confused, we're talking about Unipuma and Annipuma. Just... Google Dominion Tank Police. :ph34r:

 

And your picture for today is:

Morning all. final day of the work week for me, day 6. just 4 more hours and I am done...... then start back up on Saturday.... the day I have to put my dog of 12 years down. I will be a wreck, but work does not care, we are two people short and another one threatening to quit. I hate people..  which makes working retail suck even more... it it is like 13 and feels like -2. This weekend should be down into the single digits for highs..... that is not normal weather for here. The wife informed me this morning that the weather men are talking about -31 wind chill this Sunday. The people to my north decided to share their lovely weather with us. I hate the cold, the snow is pretty, but it comes with the cold.... and brings mud with it, so mopping the floors at work are a pain. 

 

Sorry for all the negative,  the only positive that I can see, is in two weeks time I will be headed to hang out with Ludo to paint. I really am getting the itch to run a GURPS game, but I would not know what to run, fantasy, Traveller, or Fallout... oh well. Not a lot of people like GURPS for some reason.... Well, I hope everyone is doing ok. 

Crowley enjoy this time, they grow quickly and time always seems to slip by. My youngest is on a sleep over tonight and is in the 8th grade.

Got a box of Roman Legionaries for use in RPGs yesterday, yay!

 

Discovered that while I knew that the heroic 28mm scale used in most RPGs is bigger than hard 28mm, nobody told me the historical stuff would be a full head shorter. Boo!

 

Guess I've got a troop of skinny dwarves. Maybe a militant arm of the Lollipop Guild?

You have a grocery store named Iceland??

 

Yup! It sells, appropriately enough, frozen food. They are most famous for being sued by the country of Iceland a few years ago.

My sympathies, it's always hard to let our friends go.

It's done to prevent further suffering and that's the last thing we can do for our furballs.

 

I wish you strength.

Hey all!! Past week was quite busy, but with Monday all my assignments are done and only the big scary final exams are left.

 

In mini related news, I've put together some Witch Elves and preparing to build my Daughters of Khaine minis for the release of the new Battletome and Endless Spells. I'm really excited but I do hope they don't make this army really terrible to play. 

 

Ah for the days of final exams and being able to deal with the busy time by cramming...  Enjoy the days, you will miss them

20 minute nap is bull****

 

I would be very happy to have a 20 minute nap!  Its not fair that they wont let me have a nap in the middle of the day...

I laugh, but it’s a sympathy nap. I just had three babies start recently who take 20-30 minute power naps. So yeah, I smell the BS too.

 

with three babies around I don't think what you are smelling has anything to do with bulls... :blink:

Too many nights browsing kickstarter at midnight-1am with my second-born sleeping on my chest but waking every time I tried to put him down to sleep would say NO!

 

The behaviour kind of defeats the purpose of having something like this - if you are basically blackmailing people to vote  your pieces up then why bother?

I personally would just completely ignore this person, but encourage others to go and vote honestly on his work so that it gets overwhelmed with honest opinions rather than just those that will cave to bullying. Unfortunately it doesn't seem that the site admins are willing to deal with bullying properly, which is going to come back to bite them when everyone abandons the platform for whatever the next thing is.

 

its the reason I have given up on asking for judging or ratings on any of my pieces.  I may ask for help or advice but I have found that there is no one out there, including myself, that can provide a strictly technical review.  I am firmly of the belief that I see things much differently than others, which is to be expected... art is in the eye of the beholder not of the creator and it takes many artists, again including myself, a long time to figure this out.

 

This person you describe sounds like a whiney troll but there are people out there who depend on painting for income and a low rating can directly affect their wallet.  I am not judging, just point out that there are reasons.  Since you asked:  my thoughts would be to continue providing honest feedback if you don't mind dealing with the trollish fallout, otherwise, just ignore him and use the public forums to ask others to do the same.

Thanks,

 

I like my Chinese Zodiac Sign better than my Western one.

 

Virgo - Wood Dragon.

I mean, come on, which one sounds cooler, right?

 

Either one beats my luck:  your choice Monkey or water boy (Aquarius)  not a particular auspicious set of choices. ::(:

I didn't get a 20 minute nap, I got to scarf down most of my lunch and pour a cup of coffee!!

 

Today's better though. Have managed to get him down for good naps, and even got a load of laundry done! Much needed, as we were almost out of bibs. ::o:

Crabs (Cancer) or roosters, here. 

Either way, I bite. ^.~
