Pepakura Experimental Space Vehicle Number 1

Monday, September 11th, 2006

I blogged about Pepakura Designer last Saturday in my imaginatively titled "Pepakura Designer". I got my activation key last night and started messing around with it. The screen shot above is of my first experiment – a simple space ship in the style of a golden era science fiction design. Unfortunately it has a small […]

Thursday, August 24th, 2006

Monday, August 21st, 2006

Got the new prospectus for Liverpool University’s Continuing Education Department over the weekend.

I was going to have a good rant about them but I’m not going to spend more time on it than to link to my earlier […]
