Better, stronger, blimpier
Monday, August 08, 2005

Once I start revising old aircraft it's just so tempting to move on to the next one. I'll update one plane with all the latest gadgets and gewgaws I know, then I look at the plane next to it and think... well, it can't be that hard to fix up that one too. And when I'm finished that, I'll start eyeing the rest of the lineup. Before I know it I'm on a rampage, ripping apart my old stuff and plugging in new and interesting bits and pieces of script, textures, and sounds.

Remember the Cormorant? That was supposed to be a minor upgrade. Weeks later, I have two completely revised planes. That would have been the end of it if someone hadn't reminded me how much work the airship needed. So for the last couple of days, I touched up the airship and added some nifty new stuff, slimmed the hull, retextured, and streamlined the scripts. The result is Terra Airship 4.

Terra Airship 4... better, stronger, blimpier

So that's my weekend gone.

On another note, I was happy to learn that I won the draw for a pewter Second Life pendant. I'm looking forward to getting that in the mail. I hope it has a good bling script in it. Does pewter count as bling?
