3ds max

At school I had basic animation techniques and 3dsmax modeling class. For it I spent ages staring into 3dsmax creating a model of a woman. Now with the more advanced class I should be creating an environment that would be later imported into a gaming engine.
I did not come with a brilliant idea or anything but I decided to learn a bit about 3d modeling by creating objects I can see and measure. I started with creating 3 different types of chair (normal wooden one modeled out of blocks, metal one modeled using splines and creating an armchair using chamferbox). Later I created other models to learn some basics ... well the following image shows what I do right now.

I'm no expert in doing this but I think that I can actually improve and start to like it once again.

Anyway the scene shows some objects from game store outpost. I don't spent ages on making it look 100% the same but I at least try to make it look similar (more or less, depends on the object some made me angry soon so I did not really care much about them... I don't plan doing anything with those stairs! Door is fine in the end, but it needs a handle...argh).

Anyway whatever here's my work in progress.

EDH Korlash, heir to Blackblade

Just wanted to update my earlier Korlash decklist. This is the more or less final version. I've played many games with it and had lots of fun with it.

It is a deck for fun not for competitive play or anything as I probably stated in the earlier post. You can check it here (at tcg player)

Korlash, Heir to Blackblade

Valakut for fun (Standard)

A friend of mine bought Valakut Ramp deck for the upcoming PTQ so I decided to build a let's say budget version of the deck as well. This might be good for the less experienced players here. They will discover a new deck type (it might get pretty frustrating too though, so we will see). I'm tired of playing Vampires, Mono White Lifegain and Tempered Steel artifact aggro against them. So now some will have to suffer against my Valakut Ramp^_~.

Valakut Ramp
4x Valakut, the molten Pinnacle
4x Evolving Wilds
2x Misty Rainforest
12 Mountains
5 Forests

4x Expedition's Map
4x Khalni Heart Expedition
4x Harrow
3x Cultivate
4x Explore
2x Pyroclasm
2x Comet Storm
2x Lightning Bolt
3x Steel Hellkite
1x Avenger of Zendikar
2x Viridian Emissary
2x Sylvan Ranger

Block Constructed - Artifact aggro no.2

I haven't written a magic related post in a while...I'm not really sure if I'll post report from Magic Weekend Paris so here's a different one.

I build a funny Esper Artifact Aggro for extended (posted some time ago). Now we decided to try block constructed. With few changes and new cards a new deck was build. I took the idea partly from all common boros deck with Hawks and artifacts (equips)...The other part came from the esper aggro deck.

Such aggro decks die to Day of Judgment or anything so I decided to play Glint Hawk Idols and Chimeric mass to see what it can do. I have problems with dealing with artifacts in general (unless I counter that) so that's why I introduced them. (and it works to some extent)

Here's the deck

MonoWhite Artifacts
4x Signal Pest
4x Memnite
4x Master's Call
4x Ardent Recruit
4x Glint Hawk
4x Mox Opal (not sure about four)
4x white spellbomb (not sure about this either but it is an artifact and can be a creature)
4x Glint Hawk Idol
4x Chimeric Mass
4x Tempered Steel

4x Contested Warzone
16x Plains

This deck needs metalcraft soon and attack as soon as possible dealing as much damage as possible. Memnite is good with Hawks and Master's call creates artifacts that can easily be 3/3, after a global removal spell via this card you can deal lethal damage (as this deck can kill before the 4th turn). Anyway not sure how consistent this is as I haven't played much with it yet. But well signal pest is good!

Imagine this little creature with Sword of body and mind or sword of feast and famine^^. A deck running the swords would need stoneforge mystics, some little annoying artifacts and Tezzeret 2.0. Such deck might be much more versatile than this little creatures aggro deck.
