We did this last year in .space, I thought it would be perfect. Just fill out
the questions like survey.
What is your name?
= Soren Roberts, aka “bricklovinfreakboy”.
How old are you?
= 18, but grouchy and cynical enough to be 50 sometimes :).
What does real life mean for you? (In the sense of what you do outside of the
hobby: work, other hobbies, etc.) = Well, in what they tell me is my real life,
I’m a student, aiming for a design job of some kind. I also have a truly
unhealthy fondness for anime and manga that sucks up whatever cash escapes the
wallet-grinder of my Lego hobby.
Favorite Personal Mecha MOC?
= Oh geez, this is tough. I really like the Snow Goose, so I guess I’ll go with
that. I’m not sure though.
Favorite Other Mecha MOC? (Pick two or three if you want.)
= Stuart Immonen’s Neko2 gives me perverse, unnatural feelings for ABS plastic.
The guy’s a monster.
Also Bryce McGlone’s Cankerworm. Wow.
Favorite Other Non-Mecha MOC?
= Joel Kuester’s VES-X Spacecraft.
What would you like to build if only you had the parts/time?
= An entire 100+ page comic in Lego form, solely to show off my mecha.
What inspires you?
= I could list everything, but then you’d never see the bottom of this post :).
I love to be obscure, so Five Star Stories. That series is pure style at its
finest.
Appleseed, Ghost in the Shell, Gunnm, Bubblegum Crisis... The list goes on. I’m
not averse to American influences but I don’t seek them out much. Hobby Japan
when I can afford it.
Have fun!
Soren
