Show your real life artifacts
« on: July 09, 2010, 05:21:16 pm »
I confess, I am starting this topic just to show off. But that doesn't mean you can't show off too! I get to start though.



This is Robekeser Orabôfid Stòkïd, or Barbsparkle the Leaky Cup of Impaling. I won't even pretend that the craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is made of iron wire and iron thread. It is encircled with bands of copper thread. It doesn't menace with spikes of iron wire anymore but it sure did during the making of it... and how!

I made this for a fellow DF fan who was totally unimpressed by it, upon which I had a tantrum, tore loose his apartment door, and trashed the furniture. >:(

Well, okay, I didn't.

Lawec has admired an artifact lately.

I have made a troll head out of clay a few years ago... I'll go take a picture of it when I find it.

In order to improve the universe's frame rate, we must all throw rocks into volcanoes and then do absolutely nothing, worldwide, for a week, to take pressure off pathfinding.

Only in dwarven culture is alcohol poisoning a death worthed investigating, while being impaled through several toes, a eye, and a thumb from a spiraling water[3] is not.  Because everyone knows, the only way a dwarf could get alcohol poisoning is if someone put poison into the alcohol.

The worst part is, you can't even sell this to the merchants because its an artifact. What do you expect for me to do with a goblet I can not drink from?

The learning curve of the df forums should be equal to that of df itself.

That's probably because in the time it took you to make one, his dorfs prolly made hundreds of working ones.
