Well a little off topic compared to my usual Flex related posts but I always try to keep my friends and family updated as to the progress on my project car. My mates keep asking whens the first beach run and my girlfriend when can she take it for its first shopping run *shudder*

For those not in the know this convertible mustang started out in a bad way when I found her

I rebuilt the chassis (frame for the US people) and then proceeded to pretty much replace the entire body. Getting it on the chassis machine to check my workmanship etc.

After replacing the entire floor in both the cabin and the boot (trunk) I then had to replace most the engine bay and outer panels….weeeee. Along haul but I can now say I have built a car from scratch.

I also won some awesome Bridgestone rubber so I decided to splash out some pretty mags

Lately I have been slowly putting it back together as time and weather allowed

I went to welding school at MIT to get my welding tickets so I could do everything myself. Its kind of a nice way to break away from the computer and do something with my hands. Now comes the task of panel work and using as little bog (bondo) as possible to get her straight and off to the paint shop. So stay tuned for the beach run photos but as its hailing outside at the moment that may be a while off.

After seeing Shunjie’s post I though I would try it out

Well yep its that time of year again. I am sitting in my hotel room using over prices broadband so Ill make this quick. If you see me round WebDU tomorrow feel free to wander up and say hi

See you there.

Geoff from Daemon, Minty from Nectarine and Kai from Ventego Creative have created WebDU’s very own trading card game. The cards look great and you can tell they have had the magic wand of Nectarine cast over them, and the combined word smithing of Kai and Geoff to make you giggle.

OFFICAL:

“All you have to do is submit a hand of our incredibly collectable trading cards to the friendly conference staff, and if it’s one of the highest scoring hands, you could be in for a share of the goodies.”

So theres prizes to win and cards to trade/pilfer. Anyone else from NZ heading to WebDU? Ping me if you are and we should head out in force to one of the many social events

Can’t wait to see them in real life? you can check out a preview HERE

But watch the fine print. Even at low resolution I can make out some fairly strange topics covered in the rules which will lead to all sorts of shenanigans at the conference.

Great work guys…. and Minty how do I get a cartoon of me? they rock so much.

Anyone who knows me knows I love games. And sometimes I like challenging game but sometimes Im just looking for easy entry get on and shoot stuff fun. A new game that has caught my attention is Battlefield Heroes. Check it out. AND ITS GOING TO BE FREE!
