Model Car Kits

Ok so recently been talking to my good friend R0bbit in the states about model kits, he had picked up a car and was half way through it and seen as I'm outta work and looking for a job I thought would be a great time to pick this up again as I haven't done it since school.

So I picked up this car its the Brahbam BT50 BMW Turbo F1 car (for those of you who dont no what it is lol)


so got all my paints my glue and ready to go, so I made a start on it a few weeks back and its WIP(work in progress) at the moment but im getting there ill add a few pics and more as I go along the way.

This one shows you how small the engine is




These are my tyres that I sanded down a bit to make them look like they have been used they look pretty rubbish out the package



Now I have the gear box and oil tank attached to the engine its starting to come along quite nicely.


Here we have the trye's painted up I used a size #0000 brush to do these I dont have the steadiest of hands if im honest and should of probably used a finer brush might of been easier but for a first attempt I'm happy with the way they turned out


Ok so here is my driver I have just painted up :)





As I said WOP so I'll keep it updated as and when I progress.

Original Xbox

Ok so at the moment in time im in no position to buy a new xbox 360 so had to get out the old xbox, made a few mods to it, Soft modded the console using a few various guides, then upgraded the hard drive to a 500gig HD, then joined this great site link in the title, $6 a month unlimited downloads of games home-brew apps & Games, cant go wrong, even got it set-up on-line last night and got my ass handed to me on a plate at Halo 2 oh the good old times eh lol

All good fun, going to try out some new mods soon, maybe put it inside a media centre case and some lights and some better cooling make it look a little sexier than a brick lol, also some wireless controllers seems a good idea, and in the middle of making the controller port for player 4 be able to cold boot the xbox to I don't have many friends so i don't need port 4 lmao

Mobile Comic Book's

Ok so I have finally got round to getting Comic Book Reader for my Hd2 excellent app, I had one problem though the comics i "borrowed" from some sites were all in .pdf, bit of searching and i found this great app, "pdftohtml" its great your just place you're .pdf file in the program and it will rip the files out leaving you with jpg's and html files, you don't need the HTML files delete them, then the jpg's you just add them to a archive and save them as .cbr fantastic :)

here's the app, only got 10 downloads on here because don't have a premium account but can be found on google anyway

Iphone 4

Great way to start the blog of with a epic fail video in the link,

So anyway the new Iphone has been released and blah same shit in a new case IMO, ok you got your new screen resolution woopty do.

Windows 7 64bit - Bluray

So just spent the last few hours trying to get a decent Blu-ray software for the new laptop, hhmm ok I'm not spending the best part of £75 that's just bull shit, I remember when my pc first came with a DVD drive it came with CyberLink DVD that worked nice till I found better solutions.

So i just been reading though a few forums to come upon this and find this funny as hell and so typical from MS. (source in the link}

"So let me get this straight. Microsoft chose not to support BluRay playback, by design. And your advise, as a Microsoft rep., is to get third party software, which Microsoft does not recommend ? I am more than a little surprised by your answer. Why has Microsoft, by design, not supported BluRay playback.
Please don't say because of codecs, that is not an answer. It is well within Microsoft capabilities to come up with codecs that will allow Windows 7 to play back BluRay. I don't think I need to tell you that there are hundreds of thousands of people who will be affected by my problem and it deserves a better answer than what you have given me."

Now this is just funny, and the laptop is going to be exchanged,
