Fish Tank update

damage

edge2

grate

nuvo

Long time no update! Tank is doing well, but lighting is starting to become an issue. The light is so off centre/towards the back that a lot of corals are living in shade now. Now quite sure what to do about it, might just let things be.

I had a MASSIVE issue. I packed the filter in the Edge with too much media, and over the span of a day the edge leaked, and it sits on MDF board, so the entire tank almost fell through the air-conditioning chute it sits on!!! I’ve moved the tank to the kitchen bench for now and will repair the bench ASAP.

The Nuvo is doing well too. A month or so ago I noticed my 6-Line was missing. Turns out he jumped over the back wall and into the rear sump compartment of the Nuvo! Took me a while to catch him out of there! A few days later he jumped into the back section again! Smart fella?! I caught him out again, only to have him jump AGAIN so I gave in and just took off one of the spinning nuvo pump thingies, leaving a hole for hi to freely swim fro the front section of the tank to the sump (very cool!). He loved this for the past few weeks as he gets beaten up by the Dottyback, and this has relieved the issue, but 2 days ago I noticed he wasn’t coming to the front for feeding time, today I had a good look and it turns out he’s jumped out of the tank completely, fallen on the floor, then even worse fallen into the air conditioning grate under the tank (I can’t get his dried up dead corpse!).

ClubS2K

I’m on fire! Another logo design! I designed the ClubITR logo a few years ago for Felix Alim. Felix is setting up a club for S2000 owners now so he reached out and asked for help. I’ve kept it in line with what I did for the ClubITR logo, that’s using the font for the actual S2000 badge (I had to make up the “K”).

I don’t design for others too much these days but ex-Zen staffer John Lor is setting up a new thing and I’m excited for him (big time!), so I thought I’d help out!

Check out Greaser, the boys are off to an amazing start! Visit: https://www.facebook.com/greaserco/

Dropped in to Heasman Steering today to hang out with Ved who was installing KW V3’s on his MK1 GTI (new goods on old cars, so kinky!). There’s alway’s some heavy metal at Heasman’s, couldn’t help but rattle off a few shots!

Goodies from Import Bible! I love cars, but I’m not massive about wearing cars on my chest (hey I love cats too but I don’t own any crazy cat jumpers!), but I like Import Bible gear. Smart concepts for those who know, that kinda thing.

Love the heart breaker T, especially the subtle front print. Love the Gentleman’s Agreement T as it’s one of the first things you learn about the BNR32 when you’re on the hunt to know more about them.

Test Drive: Supercharged Widebody M3 for Motor Magazine

In 2013 I test drove the first widebody Vorsteiner GTRS for Motor Magazine. Ramspeed built the car (they also built my Supercharged R32 Golf). The first time I went to test drive it, the car wasn’t set up right; it was scrubbing so bad in corners that we had to postpone the test until they sorted the alignment out, a week later Sydney based Photographer Matthew Everingham and I were out at Ramspeed again and this time we took the car out for a VERY long shoot and drive, on everyday roads, highways and twisties too (we even tested the widebody in a McDonalds drive through!).

The concept was for Motor Magazine to start opening up their pages to modified car culture. Unfortunately the new editor at the time ended up losing his job, and thew new editor who replaced him hasn’t been in touch with us to do more collaborative work.
