Icy business


Anenae trying her hands on used ship sales. Surely she's better at selling refined ore, but you gotta try different things once in a while.
I'm glad, finally some artsy stuff around here, hopefully I'll be pushing out some more EVE related art soon.
Her suit is just something whipped from my head, at least below the official chestplate-thingy. I dunno, just something that comes off quickly when entering the pod and something that looks distantly like ah-ever-so-sexy overalls :D.

Also, watched Starship Troopers once again a few days back after bumping on the soundtrack on Spotify. Made me wish Dust 514 would come out soon and come out successfully. Not that I'd be getting a console just to play Dust, but I'd be eager to contract some console-grunts to work for me on planets.

"The fleet does the flying, the infantry does the dying."

Though *many fingers* probably needs to grow a bit still for that kind of business. And join some huge alliance, or something, to fight for sovereignty. And I'm still a bit unsure how that would work out.




Speaking of growing, we've recruited new members and done some general wrecking, this time in Amarr space. Still only drones, but a bit more dangerous kind this time. It's fun, though not that profitable.




Aaand speaking of profit, I also decided to take a shot at ice harvesting and hey, it seems pretty healthy for my wallet at first glance.
The ice fields seem to be relatively rare and as I finally found one, it looked even more peculiar; filled with CONCORD police. Well, no harm in extra security I guess. I spent some four million ISK on a nice pair of Ice Harvesters and went on breaking the ice, so to speak.


Everything seemed to work out peacefully until some miserable little bastard warped next to me and opened fire with a destroyer. Too bad for him it is still a high sec system and the ice field indeed is full of CONCORD to begin with, and I actually noticed his attempt at blasting me to bits only at the moment he was already a pretty ball of fire and twisted metal himself. He had some backup too, though his friend just floated near me with a lock-on, not doing a thing. Nice going there.
Of course, this has all to do with Hulkageddon going on at the moment. Drives all the lunatics out in the fields, damnit, I haven't seen this many pods and exploding ships during my entire time with EVE yet.


Also earlier, with our science team of one, we probed out a wormhole in one of the nearby solar systems, though as the bravest one of us ventured forth to recon with a small frigate, he soon noticed that there were apparently some heavy duty pvp-equipment waiting on the other side with scramblers and deathbeams. So we, on a second thought, decided it was a silly place and didn't go there.

And in case you're that kind of reader who doesn't constantly hover his/her mouse over the pictures; yes, do click them to see everything there is. The screenshots in this blog tend to be just small crops of the actual shots :).

Also, this.
