I Still Cannot Get This Right! - Blender 2.5 Tutorial - How to make a Tank Track!

What World Is In Your Mind?

 This is a space station and 4 different ships I designed in Blender, ever since I was a kid I was fascinated with Sci-Fi and spaceflight in general, so it is natural I gravitated to making this kind of stuff once the basic operation of Blender became normal activity.
My models are going to be used in a animation I am working on, mostly in background shots, but it is a start. I am slowly getting to the level that I can build better models and it is more fun to build than hunt them.

 

Products Of Boredom...

 I was stuck here waiting for a ride yesterday and was looking at some wicked effects boxes and synths an old friend is making so I did what any pop culture toy fiend would do. Here is an almost 1.5 inch tall (or long if laying in the business position) noise/effects box.
The SB Replica doesn't do much but sit there and look cool, I was thinking of an amp next maybe but I have other stuff to finish too. We will see...

Never Forget - The Greatest Generation And This Date

For the Greatest Generation this date started it all, but now those numbers are getting smaller with each day that passes. If you know someone who served in WW2, a family member, friend or that unknown person you may meet, hug them, shake their hands, but thank them for the job they did and the commitment to serving our country when we as a Nation needed it the most, we won't have the Greatest Generation with us forever, let's show these people who earned that title the country appreciates whom they are.

 

When You Are A MotoGP Champion This Is How You Live - Jorge Lorenzo's Monster Vacation Home

I touched the Sebring yesterday.

Unicorn Blood And Little Dogs

I had quite a day communicating with a friend whom I have a deep respect for, a guy who was ahead of his time in the digital era, and I was able to get out of my house and visit with some friends and touch one of my project bikes. I was also a passenger in the backseat of a car today and saw 5 or 6 small dogs standing next to a busy street in a driveway, and it pretty much deflated my happy balloon knowing these little guys don't have much of a chance living like that, and it pisses me off that a human put them into that position in the first place. I am one of those people who normally stops to help out in that situation and have been petty good over the years of helping when I can. Being stuck in the backseat when you need it the most is a helpless feeling.
The day is coming to an end here and the nights are getting colder, we have been in the 30's and I need to start warming up my bedroom.
 

Martin Bashir Quits MSNBC, Butt Check This Out

Marty Bashir the rancid transient that made ca$h working for MSNBC talking trash about hard working Americans has quit because of his problems controlling the shit that falls out of his mouth. Now it had been disclosed that ABC had quietly suspended him once for remarks about women in the past. Below is what good old Marty told a crowd gathered for the Asian American Journalists Conference in 2008 with his then 20/20 co-host Juju Chang and the way she was dressed;

 "I’m happy to be in the midst of so many Asian babes.” And, he added, “I’m happy that the podium covers me from the waist down.” He said a speech should be “like a dress on a beautiful woman — long enough to cover the important parts and short enough to keep your interest — like my colleague Juju’s.”


Liberals are an interesting breed of foul mouthed cretins but Marty is in a league of his own, fingers crossed he on his way to Mexico...

China Gets A Taste Of Islamic Diplomacy And Hezbollah Loses 1 More

Uyghurs in China have carried out an attempted car bombing in Tiananmen Square of all places, the same place where Chinese Army tanks rolled over un-armed students as they slept in tents years a go, only less people died in the terrorist attack.
In Lebanon a Hezbollah high ranking commander was assassinated and Hezbollah blamed Israel, this occurred after the grand poobah of Hezbollah blamed Saudi Arabia of bomb attacks last month.
Islam, it's how they do business that gets them all the press...

Dradentech 5000 Powered By Yupervagen

Ok I had a hard time sleeping last night knowing this engine was a twin and not a 4, so as in any prototype situation the test mule engine has been tossed out and here is the Dradentech 5000 with a real 2400cc flat four. Available in raw form from shapeways.com.

It Had To Happen...

Prototype of the Dradentech 5000 Combat Cycle, this vehicle uses the 2400cc flat 4 Yupervagen Drone engine for excellent performance. Soon a variety of weapons systems will be available.

Yupervagen 18DD65 Fire Truck

Last in the Yupervagen truck series, this is the 18DD65 Fire Response vehicle. It uses the patented Yupervagen steering/drive system for superior performance and reliability.  This rugged urban fire truck carries tools, foam and a crew of 4.

Yupervagen 18DD30 Is Now Available

 

The Yupervagen 18DD30 is a custom creation I did for a friend and he has given me permission to offer it to the general public, or republic if you are building a small army. This can be used as a RV, mobile command & control, riot response, ambulance and more.
8 wheels roll on 2 steering/drive systems for total control and this model has 2 toilets and an observation deck standard.

 

Yet More Tools For War...

This is another item I came up with, a Bulldozer component that fits into the empty space in the Hauler model. I am designing a communications module and a missile battery that will fit into the rear as well.

*Updated the CG Archives with renders from Poser Pro 2010.

More CG Models To Wreck A World With

Here are a couple new weapons I have designed in Blender and uploaded to shapeways.com, they are in the finishing stages and will be available soon.
The Top shot is the 100 Megawatt Self Propelled Laser Gun, featuring 12 wheels connected to 3 independent steering/drive systems, uses a crew of 2.
The bottom shot is the 25 Megawatt Twin Barrel Self Propelled Gun, it features 8 wheels with 2 independent steering/drive systems and also uses a crew of 2.
Both will be available as kits, vehicles in one and the weapon system with barrel support in another.

My Oven Is Dead...

My oven is broke so I made a grilled turkey sandwich with 2 kinds of turkey and 2 kinds of cheese on extra sourdough bread, all kinds of good! This was the first time in years I ate turkey on Thanksgiving.

Breakfast Is Served

I had to share this mornings breakfast with the world, nothing fancy but hands down the best morning meal I have been able to make in long time.

I Have Decided To Start A Band

I am starting a new project that will capture the essence of anger and showcase lyrical styling's that defy all leftwing logic and explode like a hot, pulsating, throbbing tube of  toothpaste left on a city street in the middle of summer. The name of my new band is;

President Obama Gets Iran To Give The World A Reach Around While Assad Video Records The Event For Oprah

Remember when President said Libya was a shining example of U.S. diplomacy and then 4 guys died in Benghazi? Today the world wakes up to a deal struck by 6 world powers with Iran to limit their nuclear work to "peaceful" fidgeting, in turn for an easing of the sanctions. This should work out real well, as we have seen and heard in the past, when Obama speaks, people die...

 

Blender Truck Goes Nuts And Shit Happens

Polar Bear Hunting,The Knock Out Game And Get Whitey

Does the knockout game have black victims? Angry "urban youth" on the rampage and again the media giants, CBS, ABC, NBC, ignore it and the world slides farther into an abyss.
Wild "urban youth" terrorize cities in the States and it is no news as long as whitey gets his ass kicked in the process, if white kids went out beating on black individuals what the fuck would people do? They would get Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to scream at the white racial violence but instead the black leaders who would speak out against it are silent on this aspect of racial insanity. The situation in America is one of heart ache and heart break as nobody wants to confront the angry black youth of America and their parents are most likely to blame, at some point we (as a country) will reach a tipping point when a black kid or "urban youth" as some TV stations report out of fear of sounding racist, will hurt someone and them, their family or friends will take action and that will start real racial violence this country has not seen since the last time "urban youth" felt slighted only the shoe might be on the other foot.

A couple weeks a go I had a confrontation with at least 50 black kids or "urban youth" as they might be called and I was on a city bus, while my incident left me with no cuts, bumps or bruises I was in fear for my life for at least 40 minutes, 20 of which were while the bus was parked letting on more "urban youth" while the original group would tell these kids how I used the "N" word when I had not, I did however stand at the bus stop for at least 30 minutes listening to each "urban youth" call each other "NIGGER YOU, NIGGER THIS, NIGGER THAT",  then when I told the anonymous voice to stand up from the back of the bus and accuse me face to face of saying the word nigger no one popped up, except one kid who tried to make his way forward while saying "you coming at me, you coming at me"? Yes as I sat in a seat I was asked if I was coming at him to which I replied "no" it is you who is coming at me, he then would scream that I cannot use the word nigger and that only "urban youth" can. I had not called anyone that, but Precious said I could. All of this was started over a piece of trash one of the "urban youth" left at the bus stop, fucking litterbugs trash this State.

Blacks hate white people like there is no tomorrow, even our President went to a famous anti-white church for many years, black Christians hate whites as if we are the devil, which for me is just fine because I want no part of heaven if "urban youth" will be waiting for me there, fuck the pearly gates.

Below are some examples of wild "urban youth" hating on whitey. I was brought up by people who taught me that all are to be treated equally, that is not true, I was taught not to hate, I cannot ignore what I see and hear, I was taught not to repeat racial talk, now I cant escape it at a bus stop waiting for a bus.
