[Lego] Spaceship doodle

 
Hi guys! Yesterday I've made a quick Spaceship doodle in my free time. It has been years since my last serious custom spaceship (I think my last one was back when I was a child). The spaceship has been designed within 6 hours, not only to be a display model, but following certain mindsets for a Lego® Product Designer.

[Lego] 30164 GET!


Hi guys! Today I finally got my hands on this rare limited edition polybag, the Lego® 30164 Lex Luthor. It contains a special version of Lex Luthor with his battle armour, together with the Deconstructor gun featured in Lego® Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. It was only contributed when you pre-orderd the aforementioned game in a few countries, with rather low supplies lasting.

Lex Luthor's head, even though we already have another Lex Luthor from the regular sets fighting Superman and Wonder Woman, has an unique printing. This face has a grin, while the other Lex Luthor has a regular angry expression. He also has an unique body printing under his shoulderpad, similar to the one in the comic series. Lex's shoulderpad is a new piece, which only appears in this set and the Galaxy Patrol from Minifigures Series #7. Another interesting fact is that the life preserver piece, only appears in green either in this set or in Spongebob 3817 - The Flying Dutchman so far.

[YT] 800 subs!


Sup guys! Today we finally reached the 800 subscriber mark! Thank you for all the support the past few years.

Remember that we would upload a video, exceeding our current video length record, as mentioned in our Five years Rayque3 Staff post? At this very moment, the longest video you can find on Rayque3 is almost three hours, the Sin & Punishment 2: Successor of the Skies - Isa & Kachi Mode. You might remember our scheduled recording maintenance post where we mentioned that specific video will be uploaded in August. The good news is that it is true, we are actually uploading it right now (the moment when I wrote this post). The bad news is that we already passed over 24 hours, and still have several hours left. It's about 7 O' Clock here, and it's expected to be uploaded near the afternoon in Central European Time (which is in the morning for our American viewers and evening for our Asian viewers). We are expecting unscheduled delays, the video will be online this evening (afternoon for our American viewers and night for our Asian viewers).

EDIT: The video is live! You can see it here.

Until next post!

[Drawing] Rage Uprising


Sup guys! It's been a while since my last drawing on my blog, but I've finally made (in my opinion) another decent drawing. The drawing consists my MapleStory Europe character, using his Level 170 skill Rage Uprising. Within this skill, a sphere made of condensed rage appears, your character jumps into the air with your weapon glowing, attacks the sphere and the collision forms an explosion.

I've been using a black pen, together with a red, blue & grayscale drawing marker. The drawing took only a quarter of an A4 paper. It was finished in about 15 minutes, which makes it a rather quick sketch. Do you like it?

[TF2] Double Mauled Scotch achieved!


Hi guys, I recently achieved the Double Mauled Scotch achievement! It's a rather simple and easy achievement to reach, though I haven't had that simple situation until about an hour ago (you can see that I achieved it in the chat on the left bottom corner). The achievement requires you to perform a Sticky Jump (using your own blast knockback to propel you into the air in large distances) and kill two people. I was playing on Capture the Flag - Double Cross and I was heading to the opponent's Flag area, while I saw two foes nearby. Sure I had this type of situation often (even with more people at once), but I couldn't get at least two people killed. But fortunately today I was lucky enough to manage a double kill, which (finally) unlocked this achievement.

I only have two achievements left for my class Demoman, that's the Tam O'shatter and the Scotch Guard achievement. You can read more about it in my previous Team Fortress 2-achievement related post.

Until next post, and I wish you a nice weekend!

[Lego] Work in Progress: STAR WARS™ Hailfire Droid - Take 2

Return back to Project Overview.


Hi guys! So the past few days I've been building my custom Hailfire Droid, and I'm quite satisfied with the current results. There's still a lot of work left, such as balancing the weight and creating the right geometry out of scrap. I'm aware that the Hailfire isn't really on scale; the wheels should be about 2 times larger than it is now, but I keep these wheels because they are one piece and so a lot stronger/sturdier than a brick-built variant. For the ones who don't like the shaping on the top, I'll be honest to say that the top isn't the finalized version, so there's still going to be changes.

Until next post, have a nice day!

[YT] Third 100.000 viewed video

Hi guys! Today, the 5th of August, we at Rayque3 finally reached our third 100.000 viewed video! It's the Mario Party 7 - All Mini-Games video we've uploaded back in 26th of March 2013. It reached 100.000 views in 5 months, which currently makes this video our record holder for the most viewed video per month, above our Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards- All main bosses, which was our previous record holder.

Mario Party 7 - All Mini-Games reached 76.360 views past 30 days, Kirby 64  The Crystal Shards- All main bosses reached 4.403 views, while other videos which seem to grow slightly such as Donkey Kong 64 - All main bosses and Luxatus Patella's TOY STORY 2 and Croc 2 walkthroughs. We are looking forward for his walkthroughs to grow large in time, and we hope it'll reach similar or even better results as his first completed walkthrough, the Tarzan Action Game walkthrough.

Until next post, have a nice (sunny) day!
