Might just be time to get back to the hobby briefly. There have been more developments in the
#spacemarine fiasco, one of the most interesting of them being GW
actually acknowledging the situation, if not bending low enough to actually apologize, but it's something. They even managed to leave up everyone's angry comments about the acknowledgement post on their facebook, rather than summarily deleting them as you'd expect them to do (considering @VoxCaster was blocking anyone who referenced them on Twitter).
Anyway. More on that later.
This one is meant for my dear Hydra!
He finally has a home! HUZZAH! (click the image to be directed)
He's still getting it off the ground, but I wanted to share the link so that people could find it.
For a time, Hydra, Moloch, and I formed a fantastic little team of Tyranid artists. We were active
on Warpshadow, but we spent just as much time bouncing ideas back and forth through the background medium of email. We collaborated at all levels, from concept through to actual models. It was a glorious, fruitful little synergy that I've also meant to post about for bloody ever, but I guess that full story will have to wait.
Anyway, though I've posted numerous articles here featuring the works of
the Moloch, I have been woefully behind in sharing the work of the Hydra. Once again, it's something I always meant to get to but didn't manage. Of our little Tyranid shadow team, Hydra has ALWAYS been the most prodigiously productive. I've described the guy's inspiration and modeling through-put as a nuclear reactor of creativity.
Also, did you know the guy can fly!?
Stop that. That's silly.
Ahem. The best thing about Hydra's creative drive is that it's very much contagious. You hang around the Hydra enough, and you start to achieve things of which you never thought you were capable.
And now is your chance to bask in the boy's brilliance. He's a very busy man, so it might take him some time to get the site up to full operating strength, but best to follow it now so that you don't miss the amazing updates later.
