8baller

Is anyone else able to actually log in and PLAY since the I13 launch. I was in for less than 5 min before I got kicked from the server...and haven't been able to connect to a patch server since.

Not sure about the legality of posting twice...but...I felt it needed to be done

fixing goof up on my part...

Torroes, I don't think anyone's jumping on you for doing anything wrong. Heck I think you handled it in the best way possible. I definately understand your circumstance and you've simply offered up options.

Nothin' wrong with that.

I agree, I don't see a ton of people jumping up on this one, but also don't limit your choices more than you need to. Just because someone doesn't have a vehicle/ship design in their portfolio doesn't necessarily mean they can't draw one. I'm not known for drawing vehicles, but I'm currently working on several ship designs for a game.

Give them a shout and let them say 'no'.

Just a thought.
Todd

My word, that's awesome!

All very nice....they look like you had a blast drawing them.

Todd

Very nice!

Thanks for the compliments folks! And for the DVD...I think it's already made it's way to the discount $5 rack

Thanks,
Todd

Very nice. And nice site.

Todd

Holy smokes, I'm honored! I think you may have overestimated my abilities, but thanks

And still no Matrix yet The legal paperwork is signed, but I have no ETA as to when I'll actually receive anything. I'm hoping by my birthday.

Thanks again,
Todd

Thanks all! Once Niklas told me the character background I couldn't resist the idea

Here's FunnyFaceDesign's hero "Projectionist" all Legoized. He was super cool and open about any type of concept and let me have a little fun with the it.

I also have a bit a built in respect for the hero as I worked as a movie projectionist for one summer in high school......awwwwwesome job.

Hope you like.

Lego Projectionist

ok...must...do....better...job of hiding in the future.

Is that the Aperture Science logo on the chest?

Looks great, though!

Hehehe, that it is. It was a bit of an inside joke with the contest. Long story short, he used a remix of "Still Alive" during a very nice machinima movie he'd made.

Todd

Here's a piece I created for Woot Studio's 3 year anniversary contest. There were a ton of great entries and I was beat out in the end. But it was a lot of fun to make.

The concept was a Freakshow recruitment poster.

Freakshow "Upgrade"

Can you find the hidden 8 Baller logo?

Todd

Awesome! Very well done.

Todd

A few random pieces for the Scoop:

8 Baller - cause I wish there was a live action movie.

Lego Statesman - who doesn't like Legos?

Vektor Prime and Klank - the robotic duo of me and my son.

Super Kate - and I can't leave out my daughter's super.

Yeah, I just looked at the schedule.. you're on at the same time as the Devs showing off I13 Beta. They'll also be giving away cookies.

Sorry =(

Oh come ON! That's not even fair!

LOL, mainly congratulating you for stepping up and offering as well as getting the chance to do it. but also congratulating/impressed with NCsoft for acknowledging a good idea and opportunity and having the guts to let you simply "do your thing" without being overly worried about not having total control over it.

A lot in the same way that they responded to the I13 (now 14) question about the leveling pact being an easy target for PL companies. They said basically, and I'll paraphrase, "Yes there is the danger of some people misusing the feature but because we feel it will make the game better for a large percentage of our players we're going to add it."

I know to many the above sounds like not a hard decision but I'll tell you, there are a ton of other "unnnamed" companies that let the threat of a good idea being misused by 2% of the game population kill the idea for the rest of the 98%.

So appaudes all around.

Todd

WOW that is super cool! Congrats, wish I could see it, but take lots of video (or demorecord it for me )

Nice job NCsoft, and knock 'em dead DR.

Todd

Congrats to da winners! There was a lot of awesome work on there. Nice job.

Todd

Thanks for the feedback all

The Lego characters are a lot of fun to do, but I think I'll be taking a short break from the blocky guys after this run. I think I need to do a piece or two with more....curves

Thanks again,
Todd

May I present Crestent, in all his Lego glory. Another in the Lego series, a little info on the piece and backstory is on my DA page.

As always, comments welcome.

Lego Crestent

Thanks,
Todd

LOL yeah, if I could get it in black I would SOOOOOOOOOOOO slap a giant 8 logo on the hood.

And custom plates....I think they're kinda expensive in TX, but you know I'll look into it

And as to WHEN it all gets here? Dunno. Legal stuff is on the way so I'm guessing it'll be at least 2 weeks out. Just a guess.

Whew....glad to be back from Austin. Hey all, I got to ask Jim Lee questions! Yea!
