Blizzcon 2008 Part 1- Day 1
Just got back from my first day at BlizzCon 2008. There weren’t aaaas many panels as I liked compared to last year, but it was still fun to see people that have the same hobbies as me! I didn’t take many pictures of the place because I wanted to save my battery life for the contests at night. Taking video of those sucks up much battery life. @_@. But here is what I have today.
The screens made it really nice to just sit down and watch. You didn’t have to worry about getting a good seat up front because the video camera was a lot better than real life.
Some of the art up there. All professional looking!
I like to see how many people are behind me. There were tons of people there. It was hard to get around the first few hours.
Blizzard got three huge rooms this time, compared to the two last year. That’s the walkway to the middle room.
Honestly, this was the best costume I saw and she didn’t win. That undead female is *dead* on! (teehee…). Seriously, the makeup was amazing and she acts like an undead on the stage. The hair is perfect and the outfit is very accurate. She should have totally won. The person that won was a draenei that sat on top of a huge turtle that moved. Yes, it’s amazing that it’s huge and it moves…but this undead female should have gotten at least some credit in the runner ups. I mean, look at those eyes!
I wore a hunter’s mark over my head today and I actually spent a lot of time on it. I’ve never used wire before and I kind of hurt my hands. No pictures of that yet either…but lots of people wanted pictures of me! Well, maybe just 4 or 5, but I heard a lot of comments as I passed by, or people passed me. Like…
“….she’s got a hunter’s mark on her!”
“careful! a hunter has targeted you!”
“….omg that is so awesome”
“omg hunter’s mark!”
“hahha that’s so funny!”
“awwwwwwwWwww!”
Stuff like that ^_^. Makes me happy inside.
I also got a nice complement on my shirt I made. Pictures of that later too. I just had to update.
Also, videos of the dance contest!
Sims Home Building
My brother recently moved into his new and first home! He’s been busy fixing it up and doing everything the right way, so to celebrate, I created a replica of his home on Sims 2, because I love making homes in Sims.
The hardest part was building the modular stairs because the stairs that come with the game are the straight kind. You have to do some mod work to get around it and it took some research and patience. It’s not perfect, there are floors that can’t be built on, as you can see on the top floor, but….oh well. There are loft areas in the house now! hah.
This took me about…6 hours total. Time flies @_@.
Here are some, and you can see more if you click.
The front
The side
The family and dining room. Or was it living…I get those two messed up. What’s the difference anyway? I gave my brother a nice mahjong table, a bookcase because he likes to read, a piano, a silly violin in the corner (in case, you know, you want to smash something), and I actually like the couch. The dining table is long with a long runner rug because he said he was looking for a rug at Ikea.
The kitchen, viewed from the living room. I’ve always liked pots hanging from the ceiling. The wood is the darkest Sims had without being black. The closets on the left are supposed to be large cabinets but they don’t really have big cabinets in Sims so I improvised. The TV has plants in the back because that’s how he said he wanted to do it @_@. Make more room for a bigger tv.
This is the top floor, the master is on the right. Just a couple design ideas. The umbrella is the focus on my design. And the disco light ball. Also got him a big plasma tv on the wall. The closet has clothing strewn around the floor. The kids rooms have appropriate beds, like the coffin bed at the top left.
