Imperfect Perfection


Oh wow!
Did I make that? Is that the creation of my fair hands?
I'm afraid the answer to both those questions is yes. So what have I learnt? Well to start I now realise that polymers will be soft when they're hot and that getting them out of the oven sooner rather than later is a good idea. I've learnt that abstract still works and that I'm still happy with random results. I've learnt that the world isn't perfect nor are my plans. I've learnt that having fun is always a good idea and that planning a finale is a bad idea.
Just go with the flow.

Absolutely Sound


So here it is.
I'll let the letter speak for itself. Suffice to say that my Roberts Stream 83i is my new audio entertainment hub. Nothing comes close and I'll never look back. It'll take a lot to outdo this for now perfect radio.
In my opinion everyone should have one. It'd certainly up the game for UK broadcasters. When the digital switchover comes it'll be a radio revolution.
I'm already waving my flag.

Raise The Alarm


This thing wakes me up in the morning.
It's pretty good at what it does but I'm afraid that it's not quite good enough. The reception is fine but for a long while I've been hacked off with the limited range of output from UK based radio stations. I need a WiFi radio so that I can wake up to some cool jazz or chilled ambient beats.
Its time for my basic DAB to be replaced and I can't wait to show you the replacement very soon.
Exciting times are ahead.

Back To The Drawing Board


For years I've been drawing little cartoons.
What I've never done is learn to cartoon properly. I understand perspective and know how to draw it but I can't place a person or animal within that perspective convincingly. It's a situation that's been annoying me for a while now so I've decided to start again from scratch.
I'm going to start at the beginning and learn what I should have a long time ago.
I must admit that the cartoon above was fun to make and that with tech I can achieve most things but there is no skill involved and my mechanical pencils and Moleskine's are under used.
It time to change that situation.
