Quote from: "Jim_Campbell"I can't blame this on Gordon & Co, but they're knocking down the bloody Astoria (I'm blaming Boris, actually) and I've just discovered that the Princess Charlotte in Leicester is in danger of closing, too.

I know all thing must pass, but there are times when it feels like there's a concerted effort to erase all trace of my youth!

Cheers

Jim


Not... not the Charlotte!  

:shock:

Quote from: "WoD"Apparently Rhydian is an OK person...a little special but played a character when on X-Factor.  Got this from a guy who was in school with him for a while.

Was ii 'special' school?

Quote from: "Mardroid"I'm kinda surprised W H Smith got it this early. I was hoping for it today, but I wasn't that surprised when it didn't arrive, what with it still being close to Christmas/New Year etc.

Grey Suit bionic? Heh, I totally see why a new reader might think that.  [spoiler]If I understand correctly, his abilities are based on harnessing adrenaline based on fight and flight response. That's why they go on about phobias etc, I.e. he was actually intentionally exposed to his phobias to trigger the response.  Bionics or genetic engineering would be more believable though. (I think there is a bit of the latter going on though particularly with some of the other agents with special powers.  I'm not sure what's going on with the pale eyes either.) Adrenaline can increase your strength but only for a limited period, and hardly to that extent.[/spoiler]

I distinctly remember the first time I ever heard the word "adrenaline" - it was when the enemies of the bionic woman had concentrated it into a kind of pink chewing gum that gave people super strength - nice to see it's still being used for sci-fi bollox well into the 21st century!

Adrenalazine.  Actually.

You'll never read it- the only nudity is lack of flesh as well as clothes...

You're deliberately withholding a critique of the pikchurs to annoy me, aren't you?!?

At least Jared liked the entrails...

Quote from: "jock"Having just finished some other movie concept work, i couldn't help but do a few atmosphere images of MC-1 when i heard the news.

I really like it.  Then again, I don't think you've ever drawn anything I didn't like...

I like it- but I think I'd try to make some of the sculpting sharper (says the man who's never even tried to use ZBrush!).  The ears in particular look a bit soft, if you know what I mean.  Still looking pretty good, mind.

Have you got a snap of the original sculpt without any photoshop?

Quote from: "dankell"Got last week and is aces.

For those who are looking for it in their LCS be aware that due to Xmas this weeks comics arrived today, so may have pushed impaler off the "new" racks (depending on how your shop does things)

Oh and have another review for Matt's ego...

It's a bit weird reading about myself as "Timson"- as is having my stuff discussed at all.  It's nice as well- but definitely weird.

Panic not- I think that's just the promo copy from the San Diego Con.  Apparently, there is a third cover floating around (a retailer incentive cover) that I rather stupidly supplied for nothing.  Full scintillating* story and pic here:
