Soviet Trolling

Sun Apr 19, 2009, 6:42 PM
  • Mood: Triumph
Is anyone familiar with those ultra-conservative Christian groups that go around to colleges and "preach" their message of hate? You know the type, the ones with the big signs who list everyone they think is going to Hell, the ones who scream at passers by, particularly women. Well, one of those guys came to Penn State last Thursday. I've always wanted to mess with these guys, and since I'm a graduating senior it was my last chance. I ran home from Russian class and threw on my Soviet commissar's uniform, grabbed my flag and headed back out to confront the bible thumpers. By the time I had gotten there, the Penn State Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transsexual Alliance was there, and so was the Atheists and Agnostics club. I was an instant success, drawing more attention to myself than to the radicals. I was even photographed and interviewed by the Collegian, Penn State's student newspaper. The only reason I was there, I told them, was to make the preachers look silly. I did a pretty good job of it. I was in character the whole afternoon, waving my big Soviet flag and spouting ridiculous Soviet propaganda, springboarding off of some of the radicals' more ridiculous claims. All in all, it was a great day.

Here's the cruiser so far. I daresay it's about 95% finished now:

That's some nice work you've done there. It's not quite the same as mine, but it's cool because this is your personal artist's touch. It looks like you took a few of the easy solutions I bypassed, it's interesting to see how things turn out when I could have done them differently. Also, I can't believe you're using a kitchen knife. Go buy an x-acto knife!

Thanks. Managed to get that done in about ~3 hours or so. Most of it actually spent trimming wayward bits of plastic out of the way with said slightly-dull kitchen knife xD

I took a couple of deviantions from the model you have, mostly through necessity - I'd used all of my spare gun batteries on Carnages and all of my 3-antenna bridges on a space station I made a couple of weeks ago ().

Going to have a stab at the Vengeance too.

I'm surprised you've not passed comment on the pattern name I gave the Repulsive.

Yeah, I saw it. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Awesome! I'm glad to see you putting those bits to good use. What do you plan on doing with the rest of them? From what you wrote, it sounds like you're not building any more models in this pattern.

Nah I'm likely to use them as objective markers. But after seeing what they look like completed I really want to find some way to put them on the board. Hopefully when the Necron Codex comes out :D
