Late Night Mochi Run //by Troy Slaten

supersarap — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 05:19:59 +0000

So the other night around 1 a.m. Sheri, Francis, Jerome, and I got a craving for some frozen yogurt and we decided to hit up the only fro-yo place open till 2 in the morning, Mochi. Truly laterisers style.

Plain Taro, no toppings needed.

Sheri, on the other hand, likes to get her monies worth

Mochi, downtown Orlando, watching Fern Gully

Have yet to see a movie here. Even at night Orlando's downtown is a pretty lively place!

Google SketchUp part. 2 // by Troy Slaten

supersarap — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:43:31 +0000

If you remember a house i designed in Googles SketchUp (a very easy and simple to use 3d modeling program), this is the second installment to that post. If you remember the first post you may also remember that I said I would try to do at least one of these posts every week…well that didn’t happen, haha.

To compensate for the lack of SketchUp posts I have two houses for you! I’ve decided to do something kind of interesting with the program. Instead of saving each house/building in its own file, I’ve decided to save all of them on one file. Essentially, I will be building a city! Each neighborhood will be a different study on a certain architectural style. For example, this first neighborhood will consist of houses/buildings designed with a contemporary style.

If you have any design requests let me know! I will try my best to build something that will represent that style of architecture.

First house:

And the Second House:

And the Neighborhood so far. Although it’s not much to look at yet, it will be…eventually..

Photoshop pseudo HDR and Typographic Portrait // by Troy Slaten

supersarap — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 01:54:44 +0000

Inspired by Justin Silangs Na’vi portrait, I decided to do a couple of photoshop projects myself! The first is a pseudo HDR photo. “Pseudo”, because I did not actually take multiple pictures at different exposures. The second is a portrait picture done in a typographic style, the picture explains the definition. Both were done by following tutorials found anywhere online.

Fresh off the Beat Freestyle

Fresh off the Beat was asked by one of the presidential candidates at UCF to do a freestyle for them in front of the student union. The routines that we came up with were all made pretty last minute. Overall it was pretty fun and we got a pretty good crowd. Here are the two routines we came up with: (don’t forget to watch it in HD!)

Deathnote “L” // by Troy Slaten

supersarap — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 23:22:16 +0000

Look at what came in the mail today!

This type of toy is from a series called Nendoroids. They are characterized by oversized heads and tiny bodies making them very “kawaii” or cute. Produced by Good Smile company.

Fans of the series will immediately recognize this classic character. Those of you who are not familiar, Deathnote is an anime or Japanese cartoon. The story is based around a notebook that has special “death-dealing” powers; it’s a must watch! “L” is one of the main characters and is probably one of my favorite anime characters of all time.

Unpackaging

Came with a replaceable body parts

Surprise!

L is displeased..

Looks like he found something he likes..

with the rest of the toys
