- retro – SEGA aero hawk cardpower toy

today i have tidy my room and found a old toy of my childhood. this aero hawk from sega (1988) was one of my favorites…a helicopter with start platform from japan. when pulling the toothed belt it could fly huge distance with a nice buzz noise :) i thought sega does only arcade/video games and i didn’t know they have produced casual toys like this one, but it’s still a fancy thing!

- retro – finally link defeated GANON and peace returs to hyrule

jipee, we have done it!…the ugly ganor is defeated and prinzess zelda is in our arms. what we wanna more :) the last level of legend of zelda was huge but with a potion and a bit swordsmanship we faced the final boss, shot him down with silver arrows and get the triforce and the prinzess.

well, we have beaten “legend of zelda” one time, but we are not finished. there is a second quest to do! the second quest is much harder than the first especially the levels!!! :o

- gadgets – the myth of megapixels

i was allways stick by my good old nikkon coolpix 990, because she shot’s better pics with a 3 megapixel chip than many hyped 10 billon megapix digitalcam that allows you non of the functions like manual white balance or manual shutter. here is a great article that explains why a 5 megapixel camera isn’t necessarily better than a 3 Megapixel camera

- in process – more 360 degree arrows for xbox faceplates

still in progress, but i think the rough-cut is done…i have to carve the middle part structur more evenly to get the attention on the flow arround the power button. maybe i will lighten the arrows above a bit, they point in every direction and disturb the main flow too much.

this stencil background from the theme “movement” was my inspiration for this kind of faceplate style. i have sprayed it on canvas a few years ago for one of my portfolio’s.

- in process – carving on 360° arrow style faceplate

early in the morning…it’s time to post here the some pic’s of my xbox 360 degree arrow style. i still have to go closer to the power button with more arrows and find a way to smooth out on the upper part…but first i have to get some sleep now :)
