Everyone please help me create awesomeness!

Can't find the link or remember the guy who made it (irony), but it involves having wire and GSing around it. I think the example "here's one I made earlier" model was a terminator librarian if that helps.

@ kingsley lol very good

@ shrike: thanks! I'll try and find it! good to see you posting here again!

@ Tyranic Marta: well, I try

and good for you mate

Yeah, I've got a distinct lack of presence on this wonderful forum due to laptop timing, GCSE's and minecraft.
GCSE's are almost over for now, laptop timing has, let's say, an exploited loophole, and the minecraft sever's down at the moment, but as soon as that happens I'm off on holiday for the next week.

Your worse than a year fiver at my school! Everytime I see him he is either talking about minecraft or imitating some guy of a YouTube vid (you know the one where that guy says pills the whole time?)

Sucks about the timing, but a holiday should be nice, shouldn't it?

Morale of the story, even minecraft's worlds are small

Keep those fire breath tuts coming!

I know it is funny but I would like ideas!

sorrry mk, couldnt help myself, it looks like youve got some pretty good candidates here as it is

Don't worry TM, I just would like ideas.
Heck, I laughed at it!

Still, it may have annoyed Shrike in some way and that is why he isn't posting.
Or the server's back up

Still, if you think the current candidates are good, which is your favourite?
And, do you know of any fire tuts?

nope none at all

and to me its always been a case of get some ideas and then get stuck in, stop procrastinating and experiment

I won't be able to get the stuff until 2 months away, that's why I'm getting ideas!

Any more tuts/ideas everyone?

ah
ah well that sucks, in my opinion i would be using copper wire now to make an armature and then i would at the green stuff to it later

ie get some thin copper wire and make several straigh wires which spray out from a central point in a cone, when you get the greenstuff cover the wires lightly and then pack some more into the core, then roughen the edges slowly with the greenstuff adding more untill you have nice flame size, then smooth the sides down and allow to dry, then paint


Automatically Appended Next Post:
oh and curl the ends of the wires up slightly to show the natural progression of fire going upwards, also the bottom of the flames should be fairly smooth whereas the top should have toungues of "moving" flame coming of it

Thank you for this process!

no problem mate i hope it helps

If anyone else can help it would be much appriciated!

meh. the only youtbe people I immitate are the yogscast.
holiday's okay, I just wish I could have the evenings at the hotel on the laptop instead of walking around after nothing in particular.

I'm not posting because I'm on holiday AND the server's back up (though weaker than normal)
wait, are you on the server?

No, just guessing!

Matt.Kingsley wrote:No, just guessing!

heh.
you should really go on it. It's pretty cool.
just make sure you don't build too close to others, and hide your valuables chest well.

I'll try it out later

On second thought, no.
I'd rather spend money on 40K than Minecraft beta.

Yes, yes you do!

Dem Loyalists are taking up all my story telling time!
Don't worry, part 2 of the geneseed is coming soon!

Everything's on hold at the moment, got broken into yesterday.

Oh snap, that sucks man, did they take much?

A friend got broken into a year or so back.
got about £2000 worth of stuff lost, but they had insurance so they were alright.
