Pyry's painting thingies: Gnoblar

I decided to paint one gnoblar with my über showcase standard and here it is. It took 4 days to paint it. I'm quite happy with the result. It will be my entry in ropecon's painting competition.

Profile: Sakari

AKA: Uzshka, Uutska

One of the founding members of TRK, Sakari has recently decided to update his profile! Sakari's strenghts in the ReiluKerho include a fair knowledge of computers and gaming. In gaming he excels most at RTSs, where he prefers cunning diplomacy, aggressive military construction and a ruthless disregard of his own minions which almost equals his disregard for others minions. He hates people who give up straight away, but prefers it when his opponents dont resist his bids for world domination too long.

His miniatures achievements include taking a preposterously long time to get anything done, a stylish Eldar army prone to spontaneous breakage, a decaing Tau army, and one fairly respectable unit of red Dire Avengers.

In MTG he is hindered by his preference for cards which look cool, to the point that he often chooses his theme decks merely on this basis. It has also led him to own an extensive collection of outdated and low power level Kamigawa cards which he has somehow shambled together into a few playable decks. He is possibly most known for his disabling Orzhov deck, his mono-green mana filtering Spirit deck, and his enduringly succesfull Boros deck.

Sakari is also the person who first brought Stepmania to TRK. Due to his current absense in Japan, he is slightly worried his previous position as the most adept player may be at risk. Thus he has plans for a rigorous training scheme upon his return.

Sakari is a devout follower of Pastafarianism, and is a avid fan of Pirates as well as Ninjas (those which aren't evil.)

Sakari's taste in music is perhaps the second widest in TRK with the absence of Scott. He can find music he enjoys in almost every genre, having recently even found something to his liking within metal and hip hop. His favourite type of music includes music with folk influences, or other quirks which seperate it from the average.

Profile: Pyry

AKA: Pysethus, Grimshag

Tagline: "Ei tää oo Call of Ktulu!"

Pyry is one of the founding members of TRK. His life is mainly three things: miniatures, music and computers. Oh yeah... There's that thing called school. He goes there too.

Pyry is maybe the craziest miniature collector of TRK. He spends almost all his time in the attic doing all kind of mysterious miniature projects. Some people believe he was born a paintbrush in his hand (and a craft knife + green stuff in the other - Olli). Let's all pray to god he doesn't stay in his attic for too long and die from shortage of water.

Pyry is not too good at FPS games. When he plays FPS games stylish random unaccurate dakka dakka or bang bang shooting is more important to him than good stats.

Pyry bought Age of Empires II right after it was released but after some playing it was burried in his closet. He found the game again when he played with Sakari and ladz and that was when his true talent came to life.

Pyry listens to everything that has something to do with rock. He downloads his music from the net because all his money goes to miniatures. He usually listens to radio because he is too lazy to burn CDs and play them.

Profile: Tony

AKA: Cheesemeister / Juustolainen ...ask about this and I'll stab your eyes out with McDonalds straws.

Tagline: Yeah, thats what they all say!! And Paranoid is by Iron Maiden!

Tony, a founding member of the Reilukerho (Johnny's Crew) and voted year after year to be the group (on occasion even the whole school) oddball. His natural ability to mess up almost anything in addition with his mastery of the "International" (don't ask)** and Über sence of humor enable him to stun people with Teh Ultimate Screwage in quite a few things. More recently the fact that i managed to be late from school because I forgot my pants and backpack in the trunk, and my mum drove to work with that car, strongly contribute to this mythical occurance. Oh and so as to not let anyone forget (I know Olli wouldn't anyway) - "Yup, Iron Maiden did Paranoid! And I'd totally swear it's Bruce Dickinson on the vocals, not Ozzy Osbourne... What? What did I say wrong?"

Moving on, his hobbies include Miniatures, Amusement Parks, Music and laughing his brains out his left ear at at almost anything, anywhere, anytime... ... guaranteed or get your money back. In the line of miniatures converting wacky Admech stuff is second nature but actually getting anything painted is a totally different story, as seen best by looking at his current army. Amusement parks seem to be the reason why his brainpower is limited to quite a small amount, he just knows too much about rollercoasters and whatnot (yeah, test him!) and hence cerebral RAM is constantly being used at about 85% in addition to other distractions...

Music is another huge factor in Tony's life. His musical taste equals the combined total of everybody else's tastes in one fell swoop. Almost anything goes from Comedy to Melodical Metal and from Punk rock to Happy Hardcore and even beyond Rap... He's a great fan of the following bands just to mention a few: Turo's Hevi Gee, Helloween, Pendulum, The Offspring and Juno Reactor. But still looms the general notion of "Örinää ei tueta", in other words, I dont support Death / Black metal, same goes for every one else except Olli. Oh, and before I forget, I love this game called Stepmania, I guess I'm okay at it too, nowadays I play on my Impact Dance Pad, Brilliant piece 'o kit... ... twas only 35 Euros.

**= If you really want to know, go ask anyone at Etelä Tapiolan Lukio.

P.S. This Profile was written at 4 'o clock in the friggin morning, after I decided to apparently stay awake and watch Robin Williams Live at Broadway 2002.
