I'm going to start making some claymations!

I got my hands on a whole lot of leftover clay from an animator friend of mine, and soon he's going to let me hang out at his studio and learn how to animate (and how to make stuff out of clay... my god is it hard). Today, I got some good plastic gloves so I don't have to wash my hands all the time, and I decided to get down and dirty, and try to make something. My goal was Sarge. It didn't turn out too well.



It's really hard to make things out of clay, but sooner or later I'll be able to make it not look like Sarge is a zombie mutant alien with a dick-tongue and is 75 years old. I think it's worth a good laugh though, so I took a picture anyway.

In other news, my keyboard arrived a couple weeks ago, and it's damn nice. I even ordered some o-rings to make it a bit quieter, and they make a huge difference. It now feels and sounds amazing. While installing the o-rings, I damaged the clear plastic LED window on the caps lock key, so now it just has a big hole in it. I wanted to get a new key set from wasdkeyboards.com anyway, but it turns out they: A. Don't have windows for LED lights, and B. Don't have PBT keycaps, which I'm using. I thought I could get a set from Ducky's own site, but of course it's impossible to buy anything from them, directly anyway. It's really sad.

This weekend, I'm probably going to Anime North with some friends. That should be fun. It's also burger week next week, which means all sorts of fancy burger joints are selling their top-of-the-line stuff for $5, and on June 3, there's going to be a huge event, where, for $35, you can order all you can eat sliders from all of them.

Other than these couple shitty advancements, I'm not really doing anything; just working to save up money and buy some nice things. I want to get a nice motherboard and CPU, but that would be at least two weeks of saving. That's a lot of time without nice things...
