I made a table.

It's fuck-ugly, but a table nonetheless.

I became frustrated with trying to convert a male hair mesh for females (I can find oodles of F2M tutorials but no M2F) and decided instead to finally do some object meshing tutorials, since that's what I'm particularly interested in, in any case.

Hopefully when I make something not dictated to me by a tutorial it won't look so.. awful. But it's a start.

For some reason I decided to look up Dragonforce on Wikipedia today, and found they've a new CD coming out in about a week. I frequently bitch that they're awful and I think nothing of their music, and that's true, but I love them the way I love popcorn, and so predictably my first thought was "I bet it's on Torrentleech." And it was. Despite the horrid name (Ultra Beatdown. Yes, you read that right.), I grabbed at it like a sex-deprived woman grabbing for a dildo. It brings me such guilty pleasure.

I have such abysmal taste. At least I didn't pay for it.

You want to talk about terrible music taste, when you said Dragonforce has a new cd I squealed and immediately went to look for it. They're so awesomely bad.
Also, I bet if you uploaded that table to MTS2 they'd take it! ha ha

xD You're probably right, they would. "In the interests of encouraging new creators" and all that.

A fellow Dragonforce fan? *high fives* Awesomely bad is a good description.

I immediately went to look for it too >_> I love them even if they're pompous metal at its best/worst and all their shit sounds the same. Dragonforce makes me happy in some twisted little way.

And I'm impressed by anyone who can mesh anything as I've yet to even properly recolor anything XD MTS doesn't put a hold on uploads flagged as "new meshes" so you could get that gorgeous table up there right away *snicker*

Oh, applaus for you! Looks much better than my first try using that tutorial, lemme tell you that (which just crashed the game). Ahem. Oh, and converting hair to females is pretty easy. I'm in the process of writing a little tutorial for it, yeah.
And to butt in on the metal thing: I used to listen to Dragonforce too! Heh, almost all bands of that genre sound the same (like Rhapsody and Stratovarius) and I still mix them up *ducks*.

I'm so tempted to try. Just for the lulz.

Oh, that's great news! I had thought of asking you about it, but I get nervous contacting people out of the blue to beg for help. I look forward to the tutorial!

And yes. They really do. :P
