I will just smile and nod then, and pretend I know what is going on grin

jhc - it's coming along good, I am switching between that and the headdress, I recently did a test using some fibers that I normally use to make my already dreadlockish tentacle hair anyway, and figured that if I could insert something into the center of the locks, then attach them to some sort of base to be worn over the scalp, I should be onto a winner. Nothing too substancial to post in the blog just yet, as I have been covering 2 people away at evil-work, and organizing a wedding-thing lol. But there has been progress, oh yes.

In regards to the actual shapers hand, I am reconsidering creating the whole hand as such, and going for finger-prosthetics instead, unless I was going for the whole master's eight fingered hand of course, in which case I might make another prototype, just for the fun of it happy

I am still sketching up final designs for the oozhith too.

I updated my fic too if you haven't had chance to read that yet wink

Hehe yes that's true, but they don't sell wire coat hangers anymore sad I am planning on using some durable garden wire, it should hold up to being trapped in the middle of all those fibers without rusting while they are wet. As it is, the stuff I use for my hair stands on end by it's self when it is a certain length (Hopefully that will save on the wire), I end up having to put weights on mine to keep them down at first tongue It would be nice to keep some movement in the tendrils and wire just seems too static - but never say never, I am giving all suggestions a go, thanks! happy

Love that lyric line. Gee, I wonder why they stopped making the wire ones (you can always buy regular metal wire).

One of these days I'm going to make toothbrush holders of my Yuuzhan Vong, just because they look like generic noseless space elves :B

Because people use them for things like shady, back-alley abortions?

That would be why, and the fact that the world has gone PC crazy and some poor idiot might poke they eye out with the sharp-end.

Oh, I have a very good idea that Nei Rin will turn up next issue.

Anyone know any good filk songs relevant to the topic of this thread? I already know of the Onimem "Just Bruise It", but I'd like an actual recording. I'm currently attempting "Vong Replication Droid"...

Hopefully, thanks. And yeah - the wedding things are kind of starting to take over lately, we haven't set a definite date yet, so it's very much up in the air.

I am a bit bummed that the writers have left the Yuuzhan Vong out after reintroducing them so well, they did leave the temple plot unfinished though, and it was said that we would be seeing more of them in issues to come - so like Kecen, I have a good feeling they'll be back sooner rather than later.

To the tune of "Coin-Operated Boy" by the Dresden Dolls. Arrangement for villip chorus. It seems when I write Yuuzhan Vong, they always turn out less "extreme" or "brutal" than the vision Del Rey has for them (they don't Shame every warrior who is in a losing battle because they can't afford to waste their personnel on trivial matters that are the fault of the commander).

Vong-Replication Droid

Vong-replication droid
Hated by the folks, coming from the void
For associations with abominations
Isn't that a joy?
That is why I want a
Vong-replication droid

Made of synthflesh I'm so girlish
That I lock him in the closet
With another warrior named
Bjork;
Who's gouged both of his eyes out
With a fork

Many friends think he's delightful
Finding my invention useful
For gunning down superiors on the bridge
For hating biodiesel just a smidge

Vong-replication droid
All the other real ones that he annoys
With his floral romance, tendency to slow-dance
Writing home to mum, "Endor's lots of fun,"
"coming from your son"
really
And they wouldn't stand a chance
Not against my
Vong-replication droid

Fanboys are smitten, with what I have written
'bout novels they hate for the credits they're spending
Can you extract from my take a suspicion?
I'm really in love with the plot that you're skimming
And can you detect my sarcasm, and get it;
I'd gladly switch sides for a billion credits
Departing the last time I'm leaving the fandom
To be in a story with 500 scarheads
With notebooks and typewriters
Nymphomanic in nature...
I'm leaving
I'm leaving
Be with them, be with them
My confidentes, confidentes
I want to
I want you
I want them
I want a
Vong-replication droid...

And if I had the books as sources
Buying all RP resources
I would never ever change my mind
To take along this burly friend of mine

Vong-replication droid
He may not be real culturally correct
But I know it's facts, my readers won't suspect
Isn't that the point? That is why I write a
Vong-replication droid
With his Yuuzhan ex, imaginary sects
In my private fanon, glazing over canon
Isn't that the point?
That is why I write
a Vong-replication droid

That was interesting devil completely blasphemous mind... wink

And seeing as we are posting pics of ourselves in our Ooglith Masquers lately, I thought I would post this pic of myself in mine. Plus the latest way of creating those Shaper's headdress tentacles has been utilized in creating the rest of my hair tongue
The ones on the final piece will be much thicker in diameter and will have wire inserts to keep them from flopping over like these do - though these actually stick up a lot more than they are in this photo. I was leaning on them to keep them under control doh!
