I'm sad at the lack of feedback...its not really that bad is it?

My Official Entry :-

I'VE JUST SEEN SOME MAJOR TYPOS. PLEASE IGNORE THEM.

Vorin's End

Vorin's End is a tale of self-discovery, prophecy and most of all carnage. This is my first ever contest entry and I hope you all like it. I figured due to the prizes in the contest as well as the hype behind the Battle Beasts line they would be good minimates to use. Here we go! Also this was finished before Digger and Agent 88 succeeded with the kickstarter.

Anyone still playing 3DS games? I lost interest. Regained some with Heroes Of Ruin but I'm really hoping we get some good non-Mario/Zelda titles soon.

Damn. He was a true artist and storyteller.

Sad thing is, kids growing up now, including my own son, despite however much I try to push older comics on him will end up reading things like Marvel NOW!...while I will wait to pass judgement on it. I am worried and saddened by Kubert's passing.

Shattered.

yes they are customs.

Custom-Con 30 day 2

Then have they just written the article slightly incorrectly saying that these will be "available soon"? Also what do you think of them?

I'm not quite sure what to make of this because I don't collect Marvel yet. Could someone please elaborate on these...

Are these customs?

If this is obvious I am sorry but saw this on FB and it really caught me off guard as I am a huge GOG fan.

I am a graphic designer.

Do you have a link to some of your work? It would be greatly appreciated!

I suspect over 90% of the people on this board are graphic designers of one sort or another...

I was unaware of this.

Check out http://99designs.com I've used this a couple of times for "cheap" stuff

Thanks Ady!

Anyone do graphic design work on the side? I'm not looking to pay out the *** for design work but I need someone who can do stuff consistently, small stuff but still items that I cannot produce in PS.

Please let me know via pm, if you have a rate list that would be nie too!

Portfolios would be greatly appreciated!

It is a well written, well drawn and well inked comic. There is nothing particularly bad about it and MANY things that are awesome. Especially seeing where the line could possibly go in terms of characters. Also I think if you get the comic, you will like your minimates more because they have a story behind them, a well developed one at that.

Please let me know if anyone agrees with me on what I am about to say (if this offends you and you liked the movie I am sorry) :-

I didn't dislike the movie until I had seen it twice, to confirm my opinions about it the first time.

It is not a Batman movie. Nolan has spun things his own way, I get it. I also understand that people like the idea that its "real"...but to me a sociopath with severe childhood trauma and what appears to be two personalities dressed as a bi-pedal bat taking on criminals is not something that needs to be "real". I thought it was a very well made film, but how exactly is it a Batman movie besides the costume, some of the characters sharing names and the very basic plot.

I did not appreciate Bane just being a big guy with an attitude problem and lots of heart. The very basis of who Bane is is the VENOM...that is what makes him who or rather what he is.

I still thought the character was well executed and from a non-comic book fan perspective it was a wonderful film.

The whole John Blake character, while likable was just baffling. Why was he necessary? Why not just call him Tim Drake, Dick Grayson or even Jason Todd...what is the point of developing an entirely unique character and then in the last few minutes of the movie calling him "Robin". To me that was a cheap way to get idiots to cheer at the theater. Just my opinion though.

I am genuinely disappointed with the movie as Batman is/was my childhood hero and I am massive fan of the comics. I just want a reboot that is Batman...so a comic book movie that is like a comic book as opposed to taking the general plot from the comic and making it "darker" ( hate that word now ) .

I think nothing less of people who enjoyed the movie, it is probably just the fact that I expected more from the movie. I expected Azrael, I expected more Batman mythos to be mentioned. Maybe I'm just stupid.

I really enjoyed the videos Smashmaster

So ...& this is very embarrassing to me....you're saying that Vorin is a goat ram ? I suppose I just associate rams with sheep & it has just never occurred to me that he is a mountain goat . The ovine rams that we have here wouldn't have too much time for fighting because they always seem far too busy.......elsewhere

Where I live I am literally surrounded by sheep who I believed to be amongst God's daftest creatures ,how wrong I was .... they obviously have the capacity to drain the brain cells of anyone they encircle .

That would make a good entry for the contest, a Vorin riding a real sheep/ram/goat/dumb creature!

BHM check your inbox!

LOL. Digger is the man! I wish I was b00sted right now! Digger while I am extremely jealous b00sted got your Vorin I am also glad we have someone as cool as you on the forums. Nicely done!

Okay. Thanks everyone!

Also if anyone does need anything from TRU, I have a decent number in the immediate vicinity so I am more than happy to help.

Okay. So in the past I have only collected DC minimates, I know have my collection complete at moved on to Battle Beasts. I have all BB except the Gold Vorin, which I'm not going to get into.

I've noticed that when I go to my local TRU, btw I am located in Chicago ( not the suburbs )the MM shelves are always empty with the exclusives gone.

With BattleBeasts coming in Dec...is there anyway I can know when I should be there to get them on time? Is there a particular day shipments come in? Week?

Any info would helpful as I love going to a store to get MM but everytime I got they have a bunch of Thor And balder the brave on clearance and some Halo. The other shelves are cleaned out.

So, b00. Just curious, but if someone hypothetically had one of these, how much would you be willing to pay? Ballpark figure. I just wish to gauge the level of your insanity devotion.

The number b00sted is willing to pay is not a number fathomable by the average human being....I'm sure the number he can be is more believable though . Sorry b00sted...had to!

Good luck to everyone trying to get a gold Vorin! I hope you guys get them soon so that when they start popping up on eBay 3 months from now I don't have to get into bidding wars...sigh.

Since I open my toys...can someone help me justify why a custom painted gold Vorin is as good as having an offical DST one out of the package? Its an odd form of ocd I supposed, but I need reassurance from someone else.

Happy Birthday to one of the nicest members on here!

Well Agent 88 is on eBay...so I expect a Gold Vorin sometime soon, may he with the deepest pockets win.

I like Zach, I like DST, I like bhm, I like yb, I like boosted, tm, everyone...I think we should just take these. * hands out chill pills *

As I've acted like a spaz the past few days ....and I still have no Vorin. Haha.

Just saying I've learnt my lesson.

Feel the MM love !

In the event that I purchased a converter, would they look okay? Or is that just something necessary for it to work in the first place?

Thanks for the help TM.

I was once at a friend of a friends birthday party a couple years back and saw them playing MarioKart 64 on a fairly fancy tv.

Though I was a little intoxicated at the time, I remember it looking really bad on that particular tv.

Haha, I feel like it looking really bad had nothing to do with your intoxicated state. Hopefully someone presents a solution!

Well we know now that they had one or two in the grab bag at the panel for people who asked questions...

Hi guys,

I have asked this on multiple forums and am just trying to get as many opinions as I can. If I was to hook up a neo geo, SNES, Sega Genesis or even an N64 to a 52 inch hd television, would the games looks good? I have seen some cases where they end up looking better on older smaller tv's so I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with this.

Also, in your opinions what would be the best way to hook up said consoles to a single television without having to switch wires all the time depending on what you want to play. I used to have a VGA splitter for my pc but that was a while ago, do they make a similar peripheral for tv's that would accommodate the devices I mentioned?

Thanks!
