Kid? Kid? Who the hell are you? I don't know you or "Dias", and no I was not joking. I clicked on the first youtube I saw to show one of the tools we use at work. I didn't know who's youtube it was, nor did I care. I don't care how long you've been knowing the dude, I've never heard of him. Just by looking at his work, I see why. Listen "kid", I've worked for and met well known designers like Ralph Gilles (head designer Chrysler CCS grad) Peter Pfeiffer (senior vice president Chrysler) I've met and had my worked critiqued by Shiro Nakamura (senior vice pres of design Nissan) I've met Henrik Fisker (design director Aston Martin) I know Gary Ruiz (helped design the new Camaro) I had class with him when we were both students at CCS. I know Mike Torpey (one of my trans instuctors when I was a student at CCS) also responsible for the look of today's Cadillac. I know Tim Kosub, designer of the Pontiac G6. Gordon Plato another instructor of mine. I teach with Hak Soo Ha (design manager at Ford (former designer at Honda) and responsible for the Ford Fiesta) John Steiner (my design theory instructor and interior designer of the 1972 Buick GSX retired) I even had a private tutor I worked with daily when I was in school (Sam Mayers designer 1979 Mustang) I can go on and on about who I know, who taught me, and who I've worked with and for, and you come at me with some unknown dude named Dias? Okay. I've been in the auto industry as a transportation designer for over 10 years, boy. I've been a part time transportation design instructor for over three years. Do you know how many studio classes I've taught? I've taught viscom, several trans and auto classes, design theory, several product design classes, and human factors classes. Tell your boy Dias he might want to put more work into his sketching rather than rendering. My students do that crap all the time. Do you know what that's like? That's like putting cake frosting on a pile of shit. He doesn't "has" a register on this forum? Cool, tell him to "register" at CCS (College for Creative Studies, Detroit) and enroll in one of my classes so I can teach him a few things.

I know Alias, photoshop, and Rhino, but this is some of my work when I was just a 2nd year student, before folks were using 3D modelling. Back then we used marker, pastels, prisma color pencils, vellum and baby powder. I did this work as a second year student when you and your boy Dias were pissing and shitting diapers.

Ah yes of course, if you were twice as smart, you'd still be stupid... Even monkeys are smarter than you. So, instead uploading your SUPPOSED work as you did now, you go to youtube and post a video of someone's else. And now you say his work is shit...You are pathetic.
With so many justifications, I can clearly see you're still a farse and A BIG ONE. Such a big speech to try defending yourself and putting all your cards in the table and in the end everyone still thinks you are a dumbass, who doesn't know how to dialog without insulting everyone, even those who aren't here to defend themselves, typical attributes of liars, hypocrites and envious.
You can keep that romantic story to you and your grandsons... but I'm still hopeful that Mankind will have the luck of not knowing any descendent from you. What you say means shit to me, keep living in a dream prettyasshole.

So, this is totally the guy that PB just insulted, right? Because it's certainly not his "friend."

I'm going to start calling people prettyassholes.

But then I'd be stealing and it would be a FARSE A BIG ONE.

Maybe you should do one of your quick pen and ink sketches and sign it "prettyasshole" for him.

I was going to use a pen, but it's quicker with prisma color pencils. Here's your 10 minute "quickie".

Did you guys see the google doodle today?

Drolefille 03-06-2011 05:42 PM

^^ I iGoogle it so I almost never see the doodle.

ETA: awesome!

Drolefille 03-10-2011 11:45 AM

I'm going to be nice and NOT post the picture here, because it is HUGE. But please click through. It's the history of science fiction in picture format:

Tor.com discussed it a bit here.

Live-in just got the iPad today. I sense my sex life slipping away and my nights being filled with the glow of the screen from now on.

Nah I'm waiting, myself. Right now there's not a reason for me to switch to a tablet that is essentially a bigger phone and a smaller laptop. I'd like to see what happens in like, 3-4 years with them. If they become more function than fun I'm in.

(Yes they're functional, just not the way my phone or my laptop is.)

The only reason I'm interested in tablets period is because my job is giving away 2 iPads lol

I take my laptop to work daily and carry it around whenever I travel. I need to be connected, but don't want to have to carry it around everywhere. I think a tablet would be easier (and if I get the PlayBook, much smaller).

My phone connects me for all the basic stuff, I can read on my Nook and my laptop is needed for gaming. I just don't have a mid-level need. The Nook just keeps me from hauling books around.

Now if it were FREE.. it'd be different ;)

Every time I look at that sketch, I still chuckle that you signed it "Prettyasshole" lol.:p

My geek random for today: Well, it's not really a geek random, but where's Daemon? :(

Slingbox is awesome.

I've heard of the iPad 2, but what's a PS Vita, and Slingbox?

What did you do with your first iPad? I remember when you first got it which wasn't that long ago, and now you have another one? lol, you just don't stop.:p

ms_gwyn 03-01-2012 07:06 PM

You with all the Templar stuff and DC as a backdrop? How could he not be Native America?

Even after Embers...I was hoping for a chick assassin, especially with the hidden shoe blade!!!!!


GO HERE....GO NOW!!!!!

PS Vita simply put is the new portable playstation unit...has most of the power of a PS3.

A Slingbox is almost heaven. Imagine a box that you can connect to your cable box and stream live TV or whatever you have DVRed to your laptop or mobile device anywhere on the planet...as long as you have a good signal.

A few caveats being that you may have to spend a little extra to get other pieces of equipment to work and also the apps are pricey.

BUT, when it works, it really shines.

So, how much is a Slingbox? That sounds like something I would like, unless it's difficult to operate.

When I went work Saturday, I asked about it, and one of the LVTs I work with said there's like a monthly charge for it. I dunno, maybe she was confused. Is there an additional charge to use it?

No...there is NO MONTHLY CHARGE to use it. None at all and never has been.

You pay for the slingbox itself, you pay for the apps and you pay for any extra pieces you may need and that is it.

You set it up and off to the races you go.
