So as told on the about page I am quite the pc-addict. And I’ve recently switched to mac (except for my gaming and 3D modelling needs.)

So now it is time to meet my systems. First up, my trusty athlon 64 workstation

Athlon 64 3000+
2 GB Ram
6600GT 256MB
Raptor 36GB hard drive as main drive
Maxtor 300GB, 120GB drives as storage
And a dvd burner
Next up: my mac mini

PowerPC G4 1,5GHz
1GB Ram
Radeon 9250 64MB
80 GB hard drive
Combo drive

The final one is an old powermac G3 I mess around with:

PowerPC G3 350MHz
448 MB Ram
Ati Rage 32MB
DVD-ROM
80 GB, 12GB Hard drives

It is time again for us to pick up our weapon of choise.

Time to prepare for a new challenge, there is no prize, there is only glory.

No I’m not going to war or anything like that, I’ve decided to take part in a 3D modelling challenge. Right now I have completed phase one of the challenge and am awaiting the next part to continu working on it. More info on this challenge can be found here.

You might have to register to see the artwork of the other competitors. But I asure you, it’s worth it.

I’ve attached a few of mine to this post. You can follow my progress here.

Sweet news! Today I signed my contract, I am now officially employed. What kind of a job is it? Well I’m a PC-technician / IT-advisor. I’m quite excited, this is my first real job since I’ve dropped out of college.

So what kind of a change does that make for me, nothing much really, except for a monthly paycheck! Whooptitoo!

In other news, my copy of the art of star trek arrived today. It’s a document featuring about 300 pages of star trek concept art from all series and movies up to generations. I’ve quickly looked through the pages and allready noticed a few interresting designs. I wouldn’t be surprised if a few of these concepts were to wind up in one of my models.

Speaking of which, yesterday I started to draw some concepts for my new project. I won’t go into detail about it yet but it should prove to be quite interresting to see. I’m probably the only one that can make any sense out of the drawings anyway.

As you may have read on the about page I am currently involved in a dutch/belgian project called Dark Armada. Dark Armada is a star trek fan film for which I have developed serveral models. Which I will display now

Just in case you are wondering. Yes I am indeed a trekkie.
